I went to the CaribeHotel in May 2007 whit week. Tour operator was Thomas Cook. We stayed half board.
First impressions were that it was lovely. Very clean entrance and reception and helpful staff. We had 2 rooms next to each other. 2 adults 3 children, each room slept 3 and there was ample room for all of us. The bathrrom had a bath with shower over which was very handy for our smaller children. Was also immaculatley clean. Towels were changed 6 days out of 7 and the same for room cleaning. If you werent out of the room when they were cleaning they simply came back later, no problem. Pool was lovely, playground good for the kids. My 2 girls loved the kids club and the Thomas Cook reps were very good with the children. The evening entertainment was ok, the kids loved the disco with the silly dances and the parrot show. There was ...
Advantages: Cheap, friendy staff, well located Disadvantages: Bit noisy, bathroom bit cramped
We were looking for a cheap full board hotel as close as possible to the sea front and everything we came across turned out to have bad reviews - especially regarding the food. We only found a couple of very short comments about Caribe but one mentioned the food being 'reasonable'. We took the plunge anyway, and having now spent a week there we thought we'd better write a more detailed review.
First of all - location. The hotel was allegedly 100 metres from the sea. Bearing this is mind, and my wife having previously stayed at the Excelsior (which she would rate highly by the way, although at the moment there's heavy work going on there) which was on the front line and also described as being 100 metres from the beach, we were somewhat disappointed to find the hotel on the third line back. Still, it must have only been 300 metres ...
Advantages: Location, food, price Disadvantages: size of swimming area
This hotel is right in the middle of all the action in Magaluf.
We stayed here on a half board basis and really got value for money. The Flamboyan Caribe is 2 seperate buildings. The Flamboyan part is the hotel with the caribe part being appartments.
The hotel is situated facing onto Bananas and Car wash night clubs as well as being next door to a few pubs. Very handy for falling home after a late night.
However at the back end of the hotel is the beach. The hotel has private steps leaving the pool area which takes you direct on to the stunning, very clean beach.
The hotel itself is situated a bit off the main road. The reception area is very clean and friendly however the staff were not very good at understanding English. We were situated on the first floor, above the entrance and facing onto the main street. The first night ...
