Hoposa Montelin

"We stayed for 4 nights in the apartments self catering late September. They were plenty spacious with full size fridge. We used it for breakfast stuff and so we could make sandwiches for our lunches to take out. The apartment was spotlessly clean the whole time and the shower has a very strong water pressure. You can use the facilities in the main hotel which we did as preferred sitting round the main pool. There was always sunbeds available. We had drinks from the bar and charged them to our room and we found at a standard price for the area (a large beer and a sangria approx €9). For us it was a great location, a couple of roads back from the beach and close to a small supermarket (where we picked up a baguette each morning). It’s a slightly longer walk to the main bit all along the front but within 10 minutes you are there, with lots of bars and restaurants along the way. We had a day on sunbeds on the beach and we preferred to turn right when we got to the beach - nice big area (2 sunbeds and a parasol was €21). If we came back to the area we would definitely stay in the apartments again."

"We have just returned from a 5 night stay at The Hoposa Montelin Apartments and were very happy with all aspects of the stay. The Apartments are across the road from the Villaconcha Hotel and we had full use of the facilities there. We had booked bed & breakfast and breakfast was served in the main hotel offering a good selection of hot & cold options. We also chose to eat dinner in on one evening and this also gave a good selection for a good price although we did feel service was lacking that evening as had to wait a while to be offered drinks and then we didnt receive enough glasses with the water ordered. The rooms were spotless and offered everything needed, with a small kitchenette. Our room was perfect but our friends first room was in the corner and the balcony was very overlooked so they requested a move which was available the following day. The hotel was very quiet in the evenings and didnt really offer much entertainment which was disappointing. On one evening we returned around 9.45pm and were the only people in the bar. Had there been music or something happening we would have made more use of the bar after we had been out for dinner. The hotel is excellent for sports with a laned swimming pool (although a small additional charge applies) and a bike shop offering bike hire. There is a garage to securely keep bikes and washing machines for washing cycle gear if going out every day. The hotel didnt seem particularly busy even though it was only the first week of September but by lunchtime there didnt seem many sunbeds available around the pool. The location is good, a 5 minute walk to the beach and 10-15 minute walk from the busier Port area. There are plenty of restaurants within a 10 minute walk. I would definitely consider returning to the hotel should we return to Puerto Pollensa."

"**First of all, we had a great holiday in Puerto Pollensa.** If you're looking for a peaceful, modern, and beautiful place to visit, I'd definitely recommend the area. Moving on to the hotel, the room was quite basic. It had three single beds, with one placed next to the bathroom and the other two pushed together in the centre of the room. Because of the limited space, the wardrobe was also in the middle of the room, making it feel quite cramped. Considering we paid around **£2,150**, we felt the room was smaller than expected. The TV wasn't a smart TV, so we couldn't watch much in the evenings, which is something we usually enjoy on holiday. The only channel we really watched was the Club World Cup, which was fine while it was on. The bathroom was definitely the highlight of the room. It had a large, clean walk-in shower with great water pressure, a spacious vanity with a marble countertop, and everything felt modern and well maintained. We were given a ground-floor garden room with a shared terrace, meaning we had to share the outdoor space with another family. This made it difficult to fully relax, as we were constantly walking past each other and felt obliged to exchange awkward greetings whenever someone came or went. The position of our room also meant people around the pool could easily see inside while we were getting changed, so it never felt very private. We even accidentally saw our neighbours in the same situation, which showed it wasn't just our room. The beds were on the firmer side, but they were comfortable enough and we slept well most nights. One of the hotel's biggest positives was its peaceful atmosphere, which was exactly what we were looking for. We also appreciated being able to use the facilities at the sister hotel, including the Olympic-sized swimming pool, restaurant, spa, table tennis, and evening entertainment. The pool at our apartment complex was lovely, slightly heated, very clean, and never felt overcrowded. The housekeeping staff generally did a good job. However, on the second day they used an extremely strong cleaning product, which gave my mum a headache and left the floor soaking wet. After we mentioned it to reception, they didn't use it again, which we appreciated. The reception staff were friendly enough, while the restaurant staff were especially welcoming during the one meal we had there. The location was excellent. There was a bus stop around five minutes away with cheap buses that made it easy to explore the island. A supermarket selling fresh pastries, baguettes, and other essentials was only a three-minute walk away, and the beach was just as close. The beachfront had beautiful views, clear water, and a fantastic selection of restaurants, clothes shops, pottery shops, and homemade dessert shops. One thing I wouldn't recommend is relying on taxis. We found them quite unreliable and once waited around 35 minutes for one. Instead, I'd recommend using the Pollença bus app or checking the local bus timetable on Google, as the buses were cheap, frequent, and much more reliable. During our stay we visited Cala Sant Vicenç, which had beautiful scenery and crystal-clear water, although it was very busy. The highlight of the trip, however, was Cap de Formentor. The views over the mountains and the sea were absolutely stunning, and we even saw wild goats nearby. You can reach it by bus for around €2 per person from the nearby bus stop, although some services require changing buses in the centre of Puerto Pollensa. Overall, we had a fantastic holiday. While we felt the room itself didn't quite justify the price because of its size and lack of privacy, the peaceful atmosphere, excellent location, and the beauty of Mallorca more than made up for it. We wouldn't personally stay here again, as there are similar hotels closer to the beachfront available for a similar price or even less, but we would absolutely return to Puerto Pollensa itself."
