Anyone else thinking of going on this holiday at new hotel?   nyone been to this new hotel before.

Hi, I did this holiday last year and the hotel was wonderful, couldn't praise it highly enough. However there is not a lot to do in Cala Mayor, virtually no shops, bars, restaurants etc. It depends what you like. Others in my group loved it but it was much too quiet for me.

There are tours to other part of the island so you are not stuck in one resort, and nice to get back to the hotel at the end of the day.  Our tour manager George Wales was fantastic too.  Do go , you'll enjoy it.

Eljay thanks for your comments. I must admit I like to go out of an evening and have a drink whilst people watching, so if there is nowhere to go it might be a bit quiet for me. Is there a bar and entertainment at hotel?

Hi Suer, I did this holiday last year.  We all had a lovely time there.  The hotel was really nice.  All the staff were lovely.  There are three hotels in that cove and you could go into any of the hotels for drinks entertainmenent etc and walking between them was ok because it is mainly traffic free.  We found it to be a safe environment .  It is ten mins on the bus or taxi to Palma. Great shops there and resteraunts.  The good thing was we could go in at night. Palma is great at night.  There was a classical concert, free to all on the street.

Barbara J thanks for your comments. Useful to know about Palma as if there are a few of you who fancy going out from hotel of an evening Palma seems the place to go. I was on this holiday in Sept but was in Puerto Pollenca and lots of bars nearby and enjoyed it there. Is there a gym or spa there? Whats the pool area like, are you able to get sun lounger easily, from website it looks small. Sue

There is a bar at the hotel and some limited evening entertainment at a sister hotel. As Barbara says you can be in Palma in ten minutes by bus but I'd prefer a gentle walk around the hotel area but it didn't do it for me. As I say it's a matter of personal preference and I was in a minority in thinking the resort was too quiet, most people thought the proximity of Palma made up for it.

Reposting this to top of list - anyone else going? Just found out this hotel charges 30 euros to use their wifi, isn't that outrageous!

Our tour manager managed to negotiate a cheaper deal for us but I was still miffed as the wifi was free at our original hotel. No guarantee your manager will be prepared or able to negotiate, we had an ex eptional manager, George Wales who went well over and above.

Julia, thans for info. If I were to book and pay a deposit and trip gets cancelled, would I get a refund?

If the company were to cancel the holiday, then you would be eligible for a refund, but as I mentioned before, this is looking quite promising at this stage, so I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Kindest regards,

Julia
