Beatiful hotel in Soller, Mallorca

Advantages: Beautiful hotel, beautiful location
Disadvantages: Let down by food

I stayed at this great hotel about a year ago. It also claims to be a spa hotel, although we didnt tryany of the treatments available. So unfortunately I cant comment on the 'spa' part! Overview ------------- This beautiful hotel is in Soller. It is housed within a beautiful old building, which according to the owners has been a house and another, run down, hotel before that. Location ----------- The hotel is near to the main square in Soller, ...
...the hills away from all th etacky tourist resorts. Its set back from a quiet(ish) street, but is close enough to the main restaurants etc in the town Room --------- There are about 35 rooms in total. Our room was great, although a tad small. It was very modern, with crisp white sheets and great smart, neutral decor. We had a lovely view onto the gardens and the bathroom was ultra clean and modern. There was only a shower, but it was very powerful ...

Barcelo Cala Vinas a scenic place to please us?

Advantages: Immaculate hotel, great entertainment team, lovely location and superb food.
Disadvantages: Remoteish location, lacking room facilities and the damn bingo!

...that we arrived at the Barcelo Cala Vinas on June 14th 2008. Booked through Thomas Cook the Barcelo Cala Vinas is part of a chain. The hotel is situated in the quite and serene area of Cala Vinyes, Calvia. Somewhat off the beaten track, the hotel is situated twenty minutes walk from Magalluf and is just over an hour via coach transfer from Palma airport. Overlooking a beautiful little cove, the hotel is one of few tourist properties in the area with ...
...for a relaxing break the Barcelo Cala Vinas is nigh on perfect. Recently refurbished this three to four star hotel (depending on the tour operator's rating system) is a large open plan complex with both self-catering and boarding rooms. We booked half-board and arrived on our coach a little weary. Entering the expansive high ceilings of the reception any fears we might have had about the hotel immediately evaporated. Booking in was very straightforward ...

A hotel with no air conditioning in the rooms

Advantages: clean friendly great entertinement superb pool
Disadvantages: No Air conditioning (can you believe it ? )

NO AIR CONDITIONING - A huge negative to this hotel, is that there is no air conditioning in the rooms. The heat is stifling - so it is very uncomfortable to sleep in. . .some take to sleeping on the balconies at night - yeah - dragging their mattresses outside. There are ceiling fans in the rooms, but they are in-efficient. It helps to keep your curtain drawn when you go out - but it is still too hot and uncomfortable to go up to your room - even ...
...LIFTS - There are 9 floors but and only three lifts but the lifts are very small - maybe 8 or 9 people max (and it won't move if you are over loaded !! ENTERTAINMENT - This is a matter of opinion. I thoroughly enjoyed it. There is an extremely hard working "animation team" who work tirelessly with children and adults alike. There are some very funny scenes and comedy acts you gotta see them to judge for yourself . .Look out for the water one ! That’s ...

Butlins in the sun!

Advantages: Plenty to do, good entertainment, great for children
Disadvantages: Some shabby accommodation, expensive supermarket

Firstly I must say that I booked this very last minute when there wasn't much more around, and after reading a lot of very mixed reviews, I decided that we would just put our heads down and go for it, and even though we got off to a bad start, I am relatively glad that we did. The Bouganvilla Aparthotel is situated on the East coast of Mallorca in Sa Coma. There is a 1 hour transfer from Palma Airport (1hr 45 mins if the coach drops off along the ...
...back see a bit of the Island. On arrival, our check in was very simple. We were given a room number and a map to direct us to our apartment and as we were staying all inclusive, our wrist bands were put on (silver for U18's, blue for the drinkers!) ~*~Accommodation~*~ When we entered our room, I really could have cried. After a long journey, we were all tired and grotty and simply wanted a shower, but the room was dirty and tatty, and I didn't feel ...

MARTHA SHOULD BE PROUD!!!

Advantages: lovely apartment, nice pool, great location
Disadvantages: it wasn't cheap

...looking at the reviews for Marthas after we had booked and paid our money. Basically all reviews pre-2008 or so stated that the place was AWFUL, but apparently the apartments had been renovated around about that time and were brilliant now. We weren't really sure WHAT to believe but it was a done deal now. We'd chosen, whether we liked it or not, this is where we were staying... ****THE LOCATION**** Palmanova is located on the Balearic island of ...
...those kind of shenanigans...) Marthas is located on the Palma side of Palmanova (handy when it comes to airport transfers as we were one of the first off the coach on the way there and one of the last to be picked up on the way back) and is in a fairly good location as most places are easily accessible from there. There is a Mercadonna (large supermarket) situated directly behind it, as well as a few restaurants and pubs. There is also a bus stop ...
