Iberostar Waves Pinos Park

"Nice family resort in a dream location – with a clear need for renovation We spent a week with our two children (2 and 5 years old) at the Iberostar Waves Pino Park Hotel in Font de Sa Cala and had a very nice family vacation overall. Rooms: Unfortunately, this is where the biggest point of criticism lies. Our room did not quite match the description or the pictures on the website under which we had booked. Overall, the rooms have clearly aged and are in need of renovation in some areas. We found the beds to be particularly impractical: The two beds are pushed together and stand on stilts. The mattresses slide apart easily at night, creating a gap in the middle. With small children, that is of course not ideal – our two-year-old definitely could not have slept in the middle there. On the positive side, however, the rooms were cleaned daily and we received fresh towels regularly. Since we spent most of our time outside the room anyway, the condition did not ultimately ruin our vacation. Facility & Children: The hotel really offers many nice options for families. There are two playgrounds – one for smaller and one for larger children –, a minigolf course, as well as several pool areas. There is a pool for adults, where children are also welcome, and additionally a separate children's pool. However, you can also tell in the outdoor areas that the facility is in need of a renovation. The minigolf course in particular now shows some clear defects. However, we learned that the hotel will close for renovations shortly after our stay and that many things are to be renewed. We find that very positive and are curious to see how the facility will look afterwards. Entertainment & Evening Program: The hotel really impressed us here. There is a varied range of activities for children and adults, including water aerobics, bingo, and of course a minidisco. We found the evening program, which starts every evening at 8:15 PM, particularly nice. There is really a lot on offer for families, and the shows were great entertainment. We also liked the pool bar and the bar in the back area by the evening events. The selection of cocktails and hot drinks is large, and the staff was very friendly at all times and everywhere in the hotel. Another plus point is that the adults can certainly enjoy the evening program since the children can always play nicely in the well-fenced playground right within sight. Food: Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are offered as a buffet, and the selection is truly huge. We found it particularly positive that meat and fish are freshly prepared on-site. And the pizza is really absolutely amazing – that was definitely a highlight for us! 😍 Especially in the evening, there are always small theme nights, for example with Spanish, Greek, or Italian food. This brings a lot of variety to the plate. However, there is also a point of criticism here: Many of the already prepared dishes were unfortunately no longer really warm, sometimes even rather lukewarm. The temperature of the food could definitely be better here. At peak times, you should also try to be at the restaurant as early as possible. For one thing, it is otherwise difficult to get a table, and for another, long lines sometimes form. The noise level in the restaurant is also really very loud at these times – especially with small children, that can be a bit exhausting. Location: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The location of the hotel, however, is simply dreamlike. A beautiful beach with a dreamlike bay right next door and the view of the sea is truly fantastic. For us, the location was one of the absolute highlights of the stay. It is hard to imagine a more beautiful vacation for a family. Conclusion: Despite the mentioned points of criticism, we had a very nice vacation overall. We particularly liked the great location, the extensive offerings for children, the entertainment, the evening program, and the large selection of food. The rooms and some areas of the facility are definitely in need of renovation – however, the renovation of the hotel is already scheduled. Therefore, we would definitely give the hotel a new chance after the renovation. For families with children, the hotel is generally very interesting due to its location and offerings. In any case, we had a nice time and are taking many positive memories home with us."

"Pleasant hotel with all kinds of facilities: pool, gym, slides, tennis court, ping pong... The rooms were in good condition and were quite spacious. The buffet was extensive and varied."

"Unbeatable stay for families, friends, and couples. The location is spectacular, very close to the sea. The food at the buffet is very varied and of very good quality, adapted to any type of person and diet."
