I've stayed at this hotel as a solo traveller twice (September 2010 and May 2011). The fact that I came back should be a sure-tell sign that it's a great hotel. I would have stayed here å third time when I went back to Cala Millor in June 2011, but as it's a adults only hotel, I had to stay at another hotel since I was travelling with my daughter aged 16.
Location:
Could not be better. Close to both beach and city centre, not to forget the lovely Sa Punta de n'Amer (a protected nature area). Lovely spot for morning or evening walks. Don't miss it!
Rooms: Basic, clean rooms with a small fridge and a veranda. Cleaning 7 days a week. On my first stay here I had a lovely room with a view over the pool area. The second time I was not so lucky and the view was into a backyard of another building. The stables another reviewer commented on, I found very charming (especially the mentioned donkey). The mattresses are quite hard and having tried no less than 4 of them (as I had a double room even though I paid for a single room on both my stays), I can truly say that some of them have done their job and should be replaced.
Food: Quite nice actually for a 3 star hotel. Lots to choose from even though there is a lot of pork served. Wine is quite nice for an all-inclusive hotel.
Entertainment: The hotel has its own S&E team which is a lovely group of young people. During the day the organize activities such as darts, aqua gym, volleyball, sjoelen, pistol shooting and table tennis and at nights they entertain with a amateur show after which they mingle with the hotel guests.
Staff: As the hotel caters mainly to German tourists only the recepcionists and the S&E speak decent English. The rest of the staff speak mainly Spanish + decent German. Due to this I didn't connect well with the waiters during my stay in Sept. 2010. However... studying Spanish after my first stay paid off and I was able to communicate with all staff in May 2011 and found that they are really nice and chearful people. The impression I was left with in Sept. 2010 was of a polite and efficient team of waiters who didn't really care much for the guests. This opinion however has changed and I find all the staff at the hotel very friendly and nice.
Conclusion: I would not hesitate to go back or to recommend this hotel to couples, a group of friends or solo travellers. As a solo traveller I appreciate the activities during the day as they give you a chance to get to know other people at the hotel.
