Recently returned from our summer break with my husband and 2 fourteen year olds. Before I went I couldn't find one review on this hotel and vowed to write one if that was the case after returning.
Car transfer independantly arranged over web, hotel 30 minutes from Palma airport. Aparthotel very clean, comfortable - apart from the bolster style pillows. Daily maid service. Air conditioning efficient in rooms. Children slept on sofa beds in lounge. Master bedroom with twin beds. Balcony large enough for a table and 4 chairs with a rack on the wall for drying towels. Banana palms growing around the apartment blocks. Swimming pools clean and water quality very good - no sore eyes from the children spending hours in the water. The main pools in the aparthotel can become busy with younger children as they have a shallow area at the start of the pool, but across the road is the sister 3* hotel with two pools which we quite often had to ourselves. Food very good with plenty of choice for breakfast and dinner. Restaurant has 2 sittings for dinner. Some dining tables are outside - make a request to reserve one as soon as possible as you sit at the same table every evening but can choose where to sit for breakfast. Local supermarket 2 mins walk away to stock up on drinks for the fridge/ fresh baguettes for lunch. Only downside to the hotel was the evening entertainment (every other day and very amateurish, so not a lot happening in the evening, although my children spent some of their time on msn in the hotel lobby, chatting to their friends back home) and the lack of a fellow Englishman to say hello to during the fortnight stay. Our waiter introduced himself to us and said welcome to Germany! However our German holiday makers were much better at conversing to us in English than we were in German and all guests seemed friendly and children well behaved . Despite some guests reserving sunloungers, the friendly hotel staff were always able to produce more beds if needed. The Gym facilities were a little antiquated and poorly maintained and the room was without air conditioning! Young children seemed to have a good time with activities each day resulting in a show each night around 7pm. Closest beach is two streets away and town about 10 min walk. Unfortunately stormy weather had blown in huge amounts of seaweed, which over the course of the fortnight reached an 8ft pile scraped up off the beach, which did smell in the sunshine. No problem with jellyfish on beach, although some seen further out to sea. takes about 40 mins to walk to Es trenc beach,or you can pick up the glass bottomed boat from the harbour. Kids weren't impressed by the occasional nudist! To the right of the harbour, a pleasant coastal walk to the lighthouse and beyond . We hired a car for our second week from Hiper, (booked over the web before travelling) which couldn't have been easier to return to the airport departure drop off area on our way home. If there weren't anymore places to visit in Majorca that I haven't yet seen, I would definitely return.
