Altair Apartments

"Brilliant stay here in October we stayed in room 205 … the hotel has everything you need for a self catering stay ! Cleaners work hard to keep outside area and rooms clean … we loved our stay and will be returning in May !"

"If your looking for a cheap stay the Altair are perfect for that, the apartment was clean but old, beds were hard, we had cockroaches 3 nights in a row, complained to reception and they sent someone to spray the apartment, the cockroaches were coming up the shower drain. I had to buy bleach and spray to stop it happening, When we were sitting at the pool cockroaches were coming out of the gaps in the tiles. The noise at night from the shopping centre is loud, doesn't stop till 3am, don't expect to sleep before that! The sliding door to the bedroom didn't close properly! The sliding door on the balcony has no handle outside and it's very hard to slide if you close it. The sheets were not changed in the whole 7 night stay, the kitchen was equipped ok but nothing to wash dishes with, you have to get up early to get a sunbed as they are covered in towels by 9am, the gate shuts at 9pm you have to go to cala d'Or to go through to Altair. The staff were pleasant, I would not return but you get what you pay for"

"This hotel is absolutely fab. We stayed in the Cala dor (sister hotel connected) last year and wanted to book there however it was sold out so we went for Altair and I’m so glad we did. The Cala dor is more of a kids holiday club whereas Altair is sophisticated, cleaner, more chill. The pool area is much nicer, same with the sunbeds. The rooms are spacious and the balconies are enormous. Try requesting a high up room for the best views. Also there was no need for aircon either because it’s the first time we’ve had a hotel in Puerto Rico where it hasn’t been like a sauna! Downsides (there isn’t many) is that the hotel isn’t very mobility friendly, for example: we were on the 6th floor and from the entrance there’s a lift to the pool but then 2 flights of stairs before you get to the second lift to the rooms. Then once you get to the 6th floor there’s another flight of stairs. And second downside is that at night you can’t get in and out the entrance with your key card! You have to buzz reception to let you in / out which makes it super annoying when there’s nobody on reception to buzz you in so you have to walk all the way round to the Cala dor (more stairs!). Other than that it’s a brilliant place and I would deffo stay again."
