Marina Portals, Palma de Majorca

Advantages: Sun
Disadvantages: None

...I enjoyed Majorca so much the first time around that I went back the following year! It is a beautiful and the largest of the islands and I would always recommend this for anybody's first holiday abroad. Palma is a beautiful place and the trip to the resorts is very beautiful and relaxing. Palma is also the main marina and always have lots of expensive yachts on view and where you would board your cruise should you be taking a 2 centre holiday. I have always stayed in Calis de Mallorca, a really nice place with fantastic scenery and nightlife. There is something to do here for everyone and there is always a supply of english food should you require it. (BUrgerking). Excursions are always laid on and I recommend a ride on the 'banana boats' for a great laugh.... Read review

Disadvantages: 30 minute walk to the beach if that's your thing

...Great Location & Great Staff 05/05/2007 - 12/07/2007 approx £100 per room, per night B&B. First time we have stayed at this hotel but have used the Sol Melia Group throughout Spain before. The hotel is located on the Paseo Maritimo in Palma and has excellent views over the marina and Bay of Palma and is about a 20 minute stroll to the centre of Palma. Ideal for visiting the bars and restuarants of the old town at night and the beautiful city of Palma during the day. There is also a good range of bars, cafes etc along the Paseo Maritimo if the 20 minute walk is an issue. The facilities were good especially the pool area which was spotless, had plenty of space and the best pool bar staff I've met in a long time. Once they got to know you nothing was a problem and the standard of service was friendly and relaxed. The level of staff... Read review

...We visted the Hotel Armadams for our honeymoon back in October 2006 for a short break to take in the sights and sounds of Palma. It is situated one "block" away from the main promenade in Palma, a road lined on one side with bars, hotels, shops and the marina and harbour area on the other. I am not a great Spanish speaker, infact I know only the most basic of phrases to muddle through, but the staff were very understanding and very helpful, even though we weren't checking in until really late following a delayed flight. The room was exceptional. Clean crisp tiled floors beautufully airy which really made a good first impression. We had a view looking out at the flats opposite, but a sneaky view between the buildings to the goregous marina opposite. Features of the room were also impressive, with a mini bar, television...
