Don't go to this hotel if you want 5* luxury, lavish entertainment, and plush bedrooms (lets face it you're not paying enough for that !).
What you do get is value for money, lovely staff and customers too ( only met one rude person all week and she was a guest) , you get a unique "old style" individual atmosphere which is missing from many of the more expensive hotels owned by a large conglomerate and lacking in character.
Ok the rooms are pretty basic, but have more or less all that most hotel rooms have plus more English channels on the tv than many other hotels we've stayed in which pleased my husband as he likes to watch a bit of telly before sleeping.
The public areas are well furnished and comfortable, with various different seating and sunbathing areas to suit everyone, even a nice dock where you can fish from if the mood takes you.
The dining room was slightly chaotic as the serving area is quite small, it could have been a problem if people had been stressed by the lack of space but whilst we were there everyone was very chilled and polite to each other. My husband does like hot plates and very hot food which he usually warms up in the microwave if one is available, sadly there was no microwave so he had to make allowances, the choice of food each meal time...Don't go to this hotel if you want 5* luxury, lavish entertainment, and plush bedrooms (lets face it you're not paying enough for that !).

All the above detail fades into insignificance when faced with the star of the show LOCATION,
we payed a small extra charge for a sea view and it was panoramic, simply beautiful. We have stayed in Puerto Pollensa in the past and enjoyed those views but the views from More Vella Beach are superb and the walks along the coast to St Joan and Malpas are lovely as are the ones along the coast toward Pollensa. Old town Alcudia is a do able walk for most people and well worth it but if you go please visit the church it is exquisite.
We went in October when the larger hotel next door was closing down and most of the holiday accommodation was empty so everything was very quiet which we love.
All in all a very memorable holiday , we shall be back.More
