I booked my holiday through the website ONTHE BEACH, one of very few which gives an option to book for someone traveling solo. When I arrived I was actually nicely surprised as the hotel was even better then shows on the photos I have found with some reviews! Ses de Cases is actually part of the Club Marthas Hotel, so it was hard to find by the taxi driver. Because the main name is Marthas. It has either 3 or 4 swimming pools, one big one with 2 small paddling pools for kids with lots of entertainment done by animation group, and another 2 or maybe 3 also quite decent size much quieter pools by the apartments further down the complex. Absolutely lovely staff always helpful. I even got an escort to my apartment when I have arrived at midnight! then same guy actually walked with me to show me an open restaurant! The breakfast food wasn't superb but it was ok. In some reviews I read that they only provide plastic cups? Thats not true obviously. They also have 2 bars and a disco in the complex and every night there is an animation teat doing entertainment for kids and then for adults. My holiday deal was fab! as I had a apartment for 3 just for me! absolutely stunning! very clean. Cleaners were there every 2nd day. Ye maybe you don't have a control panel for TV or a kettle but who needs it anyway?:) One very important thing and the only minus but not about the hotel...is the rubbish airport transfer! I didn't booked it as I though I will manage to get a public bus but there was not such a thing, and without voucher for previously booked bus shuttle no chance for anything else apart from taxi! I did manage to finally find someone who was going the same direction as me but it was still expensive. It is an hour drive from the airport and it was 80 euros! yes 80...so forget you gonna go to party in Magaluff if you don't willing to pay nearly 100 euros for taxi! But hotel and the service and all the scenery ...lots of palm trees fantastic! Plus Each of the apartments has either privet sun tarrace, a balcony or a little patio. Shame there is no wi-fi anywhere in hotel but they have a few computers by reception for 1 euro for 12min so that was enough and wi-fi would be handy! I highly recommend it!

Just returned from a week's holiday. We were upgraded to a 1 bedroomed apartment over 2 floors and there was only me and my son. Pool by our apartment (9164) was brilliant, never crowded and plenty of sunbeds but only before 9.30am. All apartments had their own sunbeds on the balconys. The Club Marthar's pool, which you could use was always busy and sometimes rowdy and sunbeds were jam packed together. Don't be put off as you can use any pool area. Evening entertainment was cheesy, the reps mimed each night to a backing track but it was funny. Most things reasonably priced but only compared to english prices. Cala Egos was okay, steak house superb - well recommended. Walk to Marina 15 mins there, 20 mins back (uphill) and Cala D'Or another 30 mins on top of that. It takes a good 10-15 mins to walk round the marina - the yachts are great though! The market in Cala Egos on Thursday evening and in Cala D'Or on saturday night is well worth a visit. I could not fault the apartments. They were spotless - and the maid cleaned it Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. Booked with Lowcostholidays but could have got the holiday £100 cheaper with onthebeach. We had a great time and would return.

Spent a week here relaxing and doing nothing but sunbathing. I was upgraded from Ses Cases to part of the Martha Complex. First of all let me say I was very impressed with the whole place. The pool areas were clean and well maintained with plenty of sun-loungers and sunny and shady areas. The on-site entertainers work extremely hard making sure that all guests have the option to participate in the games and activities. If you do not wish to take part you are left alone - perfect! Entertaiments each evening - either a quiz or a mini show - great for kids and young families. During the day there is a selection of either archery, football, table tennis, darts, etc. Also 'Molly Club' for the kids.
The room was clean and functional - and yes, it's true that you may have to hire a kettle or a TV remote - but I didn't need these things. (take a travel kettle) and I did not want to watch any TV.
The local shops and bars were just opening for the season so I cannot comment on the immediate location, but those that were open were reasonable and offered quality and value. There is a supermarket nearby which has anything you could wish for if you are self catering like me.
The breakfast I thought was expensive at 9 euros as you could get a full English locally for 5 euros so I only had this once - just to see it.
The public social areas were clean and welcoming and there is ample space to sit with others or in a more private space.
There is a small beach nearby which is very secluded - more like a cove - I actually had this to myself one afternoon.
Overall a very welcoming and accomodating resort with everything you need close to hand. My only gripe is that on my last evening 18.4.11 all the prices went up taking a small beer from 2 euros to 2.10, all the menus had changed so maybe the 'summer prices' had kicked in.
Would not hesitate to go back again as I had a wonderful holiday.

visited ses cases from 8 to 16 sept 2010. my partner and I stayed on a half board basis in a one bedroom apartment. the apartments are centred around a good size pool with adequate sunbeds. the pool gets lots of sun so although not heated, it was bearable to get in at that time of year. the apartment themselves either have a small garden/terrace or a good size private balcony, we were on the first floor reached by steps to a good size balcony with table chairs and a sunlounger. The apartments have comfortable beds and the air con in both the bedroom and lounge does really chill the rooms down at night. Ours had a half size bath with shower over. The apartments have excellent wardrobe storage with lots of hangers. As we were half board we didn't need to use the cooking equipment but noticed there is no microwave or toaster or kettle, these have to be hired. There is a small tv and you have to hire the remote control. Domestic cleaning was done regularly and towels were changed frequently, the domestic staff really work hard and keep the whole complex very clean. The half board option suited us as we noticed it was quite expensive in the local restaurants to eat out, the food is fine, they have to cater for different nationalities, mostly french and german, but we always found something we enjoyed and the desserts were lovely! The waiting staff and very polite without being in your face and also the reception staff are very helpful. Facilities on the complex include indoor pool, ping pong, daytime and evening entertainment programme. I think the complex is mainly suited to families, then couples. The local area is fairly quiet and the marina at cala d'or (only a 15 min walk away) or short bus ride away is a nice way to spent an afternoon. The beaches in small coves are very pretty and not crowded, theres lots of young families on the beaches. There isn't much nightlife in the local area just bars and restaurants but the complex does lay on entertainment that is geared for families. If you intend to go do use a transfer firm because its a good 50 min drive from the airport so a taxi would be expensive. We would visit again even though we found the nightlife too low key, its not for hen or stag dos, or late night revellers! If you wants a relaxing, comfortable holiday its ideal!
