Blue Sea Cala Millor

"Close to the beach and local shops. Room was tidy and a fair size we were in block 2. Arrive about 1am and was offered bread, cheese and cold meats. Coffee and juice were also available unfortunately no water luckily we have for thought and picked a couple of bottles up at the airport. Food was nice enough we both found things to eat every day. We did eat out one evening. Drinks were available and easily accessable. Didn't know until about half way through the week we could get coffee from the outside bar during the day. Pool was like many have said slightly to small for the number of people, although I think we managed to get somewhere to sit when we wanted to."

"We have just returned from a short visit to Blue Sea and we couldn’t find fault with it at all. Great price for a great holiday. Extremely clean throughout the hotel, food was good and well stocked everyday - good choice, drinks were great and a wide choice on offer. The staff were all polite, helpful and kind and from what we saw dealt with issues raised really well. Well done to the waiter on Monday night who was extremely calm in a tricky situation. Overall an amazing few nights away.- shame about our weather - but that can’t be helped"

"We recently stayed in Cala Millor on an all-inclusive basis. Overall, the hotel is nice and clean, and the location is excellent just a few minutes’ walk to the beach, with plenty of lovely beach shops nearby. The pool area is also nice, and the rooms, while clean, are on the smaller side. We arrived very late, and it was a thoughtful touch that they had left some food for us. However, there were several issues that affected our stay. One of the biggest frustrations was the €1 cup system. Even though it’s all inclusive, you need €1 to get a cup, and without it, you cannot have a drink. This was not explained clearly at the start, and throughout the week we saw many guests, including ourselves, upset and confused by this. At one point, they even ran out of cups, meaning we couldn’t get a drink at all one evening despite being all inclusive. If you do stay here, I strongly suggest keeping hold of your cup at all times. The quality of the all-inclusive drinks was also disappointing. The piña colada tasted like a watery cordial, and the Sex on the Beach had a very artificial, chemical taste, as they are mass-produced in large jugs. Another major concern was hygiene, drinks were often served in unwashed glasses. We even saw bar staff put ice into dirty glasses, then pour that ice back into the main ice container when guests said they didn’t want the drink, which was very off-putting. The entertainment was enjoyable, but the food was very inconsistent. Around 90% of it was cold throughout the week. I understand you get what you pay for, but hot food and clean glasses for drinks should be a basic minimum standard. The evening bar area was also uncomfortably cold, as the doors were always left open, and staff would reopen them if guests tried to close them. At times, the atmosphere felt unwelcoming, and being told to queue at the bar added to that feeling. We also had an issue with our toilet not flushing. Although we reported it to reception, we ended up fixing it ourselves. In summary, while I would return to the area again, I would not stay at this hotel. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly holiday right by the beach, it may suit you, but be aware of the issues with cold food, hygiene, and overall service. In my opinion as many others would agree hot food and clean glasses for drinks should be a basic minimum standard. If you’re happy to overlook those, it might be fine, but otherwise, you may want to consider other hotel options."
