We traveled to Hotel Son Caliu on June 13 and really enjoyed our stay.

We had very good weather which is a bonus but we both felt that if the weather had been bad, we would still have had a pleasant stay.

First of all, all the hotel staff were very friendly; from the Reception Staff, to the waiters in the Dining Room, to the very attentive Bar Staff.

There was a great selection of piped music in the background all the time and there was plenty of seating in the hotel, all done in very good taste. Breakfast was buffet with a varied selection of fruit and cold meat/cheeses. There was also a hot breakfast. The evening meal consisted of a cold buffet for Starter, followed by a choice of hot buffet or main course by waiter service. Every night there was always a choice of lovely desserts (very hard to watch your figure). In the middle of the week, we had a lovely surprise - a cocktail party, followed by Gala Dinner. There was entertainment in the bar about 4 times a week.

The garden of the hotel led to the swimming pool which led to the small Son Caliu Beach but the large beach of Palma Nova was only about ten minutes away. As the weather was so warm while we were there, we took advantage of the trees around the hotel swimming pool for shade.

The place was so comfortable, you would not want to leave the hotel!!

On the only dull day, I went into the Spa (as I had overhead other hotel guests talk about it). I had a very good back massage and some beauty treatments. It is a very good Spa.

We had a standard double room which compared very well with other hotels we have stayed in. There was a very good shower in the bathroom.

We would recommend this hotel to all people looking for a relaxing stay.

This hotel is perfect if you just want to relax and aren't expecting the earth. The spa and gardens are well worth it and the staff couldn't have been more helpful and friendly.

The beach at the hotel is small but the main beaches are no more than a five minute walk away. The area is very quiet but that may be because its early in the season.

Breakfast on the terrace each morning overlooking the bay was great, we didn't eat in the restaurant in the evening but there are plenty of restaurants in the area.

The rooms are in need of reburbishing but only because they are outdated, our room was clean and comfortable which was all we needed seeing as we spent most of the time on the beach, in the gardens or in the spa.

We were unfortunate ro stay her in tired and unfriendly place that may, 25 years ago have passed te test.
From the moment you enter you feel you have arrived Germany, wot vocally and attitude.
Thankfully the long walk to the tiny pool is too far for anyone to bother to rush down and secure bed bor the day tat they normally do not ever bother to return to to use.
The attitude at reception is totally vacant and te rooms are out of date, bad air condition, if indeed it even works.
#the decoration is totally uninteresting and it must make Europe look terrible to experienced travelers
Thw trpical airport dining room, id terrible ,and one day it was so so busy .I decided to plate some food... take it to my room...I was literally chased by the head waiter till he CAUGHT me !!! and tried to levey a charge for waring out of te area...
It is just a terrible place, and the internet does not operate except in the hall (if your lucky)
Parking facilities are terrible with clampers in operation.Trust me ,stay clear of this dump, nad if you want to have a tasteful experience try te Bon Sol, ot the Punta Negra close by.
This is not a four srat property and the management are one star.
Apparantly the management is not interested in Trip Adviser but time will tell.

Just back from this hotel. Stayed for a week. Rooms very clean but are a bit dated. This did not affect our stay though. Staff were very helpful and freindly. Pool area small but plenty of space in gardens surrounding pool and lots of trees that provide shade. Breakfast was buffet style with plenty of choice. Had body massage and facial in the spa and it was fantastic. Great small beach bar beside hotel...Bambu Fish, which does all day breakfasts and all types of sandwiches, rolls, dinners etc. Make sure you visit the marina, Peurto Portals. Great restaurants, specially Wellies and Lollo Rosso and great for people watching..Would definitley stay in this hotel again.

  • Liked — Friendly and helpful staff.
  • Disliked — Rooms could be a bit more modern

I'm a 32 year old from Hertfordshire and I have stayed at this hotel twice now

First time - 5 night weekend break with my girl mate in July '06

Second time - 7 night holiday with my boyfriend in July '07

PROS:

Beach - a stretch (albeit small) of sand in this area of Majorca is quite rare - although you have to climb down a few rusty steps to get into the very rocky bottomed sea - wear flip flops at ALL times!

Location -
Walking distance to Palmanova - great if you want a nice meal at a fab restaurant called Seymours
5-10 minute taxi ride into fabulous Puerto Portals - a meal at Tristan's is a must

Value for money

Great base for a weekend with my girl mate

Breakfast - good variety with a nice terrace to sit and eat

The beach bar - Bambu Fish is a god send - the owners, Penny & her husband and the waitress, Kerry, are so friendly and offer good English grub without making you feel like a complete tourist!

The beach girls - throughout the day tanned & toned girls parade up and down the beach selling sarongs/sundresses etc - not your usual tacky stuff (though there are a few dodgy numbers) - I think they wear the thong bikini bottoms to keep the guys entertained!

Beach/Pool towels provided

CONS:

Rooms - functional! when I'm on holiday with my boyfriend I tend to spend a little more time in my room when I'm with him ;-) that being the case I probably shouldn't notice the decor is a little dated!

Pool bar - not much variety food wise

Pool area/gardens - in peak season there is not much space or enough sun loungers to accommodate - hence hotel guests spill onto the beach will I believe is open to the public as well

No frills - no complimentary cold towels, iced drinks or water sprays are handed out
