"Honest review! Returned on wed. A family of 4 with two teenage daughters. Positives first of which there are many. Spotlessly clean and I have high standards! The rooms are recently renovated with cleaning everyday and clean towels as needed. All communal areas are kept spotless. The all inclusive buffet is well thought out and clearly care taken in all aspects. Yes can be repetitive but what all inclusive with one restaurant isn’t! I have high standards and was impressed. The hotel is small which adds to its charm! No queues for drinks ever and staff at the bar work hard and efficiently. Downside. The pool area. The one area of the hotel that hasn’t been renovated.it is a small pool and feels quite cramped.we were however there at a very busy time. There are plenty of sunbeds and we never not got a sunbed!!! So this was a plus. The big downside to the pool was I think they may have had an issue with the filtering system or the pool just needs a total renovation. There were constantly large clumps of hair in the pool. It didn’t feel clean. Tiles also needed renewing and the steps in had sharp edges and were unstable. I do wonder however if this area will be renovated in the closed season. If the pool was renovated we would return! First stay at a globales and would definitely got to another."

"We were taken here by my mother for a week after she cakes last year. Having experienced some really decent all inclusive breaks, sadly this falls extremely short The hotel itself is clean, if not in need of some maintenance. Toilet seats broke in men’s toilet, pool ladder at the deep end is very precarious. The female toilet has the only baby change table so found myself when looking after our 2yo using this a few times, the light times out so you have to be quick when doing this The pool has a baby section, fairly small, a slightly deeper pool, both cages off from the main pool, which is a decent enough size to swim, but after about a foot when entering, it gets very deep very quick! I’m 6’ and couldn’t tea cm the bottom, so this leads to one end crowding so everyone can stand up. Pool itself was a bit unclean, large clumps of hair and debris floating around and laying on the side. It had a lifeguard between 10-5 who was friendly. Parasols fixed into floor which makes shade difficult. Managed to get sun beds each day You can hire pool towels for a €10 cash deposit per towel The food - Without sounding like a snob, anyone who says this food is great, either has had a very sheltered life or one working tase bud! It was crap! So much so, that for most of the week, I had a dodgy stomach, stuck to chips and ended up Eating out in Cala bona a few times! I’ve never seen grey burgers! Restaurant staff had a few that were very friendly, Jessica and Lhades (excuse me if I spelt wrong) the others just seem to look at you whilst doing their job, very difficult to leave a buggy, especially if you couldn’t get a high chair Snacks were also rubbish though out the day, dry cheese and ham sandwiches, stale biscuits that sit in the sun most of the day and either watermelon or pineapple all covered in wasps . There was a little pot of ice cream, but no one tells you About it, it’s like a treasure hunt Juice and soft drink station along with a bar that give you very basic drinks, I don’t drink alcohol so wasn’t worried , but others had 1 beer choice. Think you can upgrade or buy additional. There is a token system that on arrival they give you to exchange for a pool side cup, nice idea for saving washing but pointless because no one remembered their tokens so cups given regardless No ice coffees on offer or milkshakes The hotel bracelet allows you to unlock your room door, handy, but our door broke for about an hour just before check out and had to wait for handy man to try fix it Rooms were clean, with air con, shampoo and conditioner Fridge and safe No air con in main lobby or fans outside which make it very hot to sit at night. Entertainment throughout the day is ok, it repeats itself daily with the same activities, killer pool, darts, table tennis. We did a children’s t shirt painting and once we’re all settled down to begin, told it was €8 for a shirt Kids mini disco and bingo, usual cabaret each night, better off walking to Cala bona front There is a free shuttle to Cala millor, we didn’t use Hotel is basically a full board with a few extras, nothing like other all inclusive’s Overall it was ok, I would t return, especially considering how much was paid! Yes I know it’s the summer holidays but in my opinion would be better to rent an apartment and eat out or try another hotel"

"Hotel staff and entertainment were friendly. The food is very bland and repetitive for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The snack bar is left in the sun with minimal fruit and sandwiches which have been left out all day. The alcoholic drinks are not all in inclusive. There were around 3/4 cocktail options, 1 beer option and cheap spirits. The rest you had to pay for. The rooms were clean and could get a pool space easily."
