"The hotel was better than we thought it would be, the service was very good it was very clean staff were very helpfull. The location was wonderfull and all the rooms had a sea view. Will definately be going back."

"The hotel and location was beautiful. Buffet food was delicious( especially if you enjoy fish as most of the dishes contain fish) altho we do no normally eat fish we still managed to enjoy the food. All inclusive snack bar was handy to have but you could tell the food had been there for a while! magaluf was only a short taxi ride away costing about 5 euros. Near to water park which was brilliant. Apart from the childrens pool, there is nothing for kids to do in the hotel but we were aware of this anyway and still enjoyed our stay. We had lots of day trips to keep them occupied instead. the staff were very friendly."

"We've stayed in Cala Vinas for 9 days from 28 september till 7 october(2 adults+2 year old).Lovely views from the balcony(you can watch sunrise!).Staff helpful and nice(any problem solved in minutes).Room service ok.Downside is that there are twin beds in the rooms-no cuddling for couples in love:)))Food very good-plenty of choice of meat dishes,fish,veg,deserts-yummy:).Well,maybe on few occasions I noticed some dishes were bit to salty,but I use very little salt,so maybe it was just me.We went all inclusive-drinks very good too-not watered down like we experienced in other hotels-even orange juice like minute made.I must say,they really make en effort to keep guests happy(and we are pretty fussy).Big pool pretty cold,but not impossible to swimm in.Kids pool water temperature-ok,my 2 year old loved it..Warm water in the sea:)But-warning-watch gelly fishes!One bit me and it hurts. Cala Vinas is a quiet area,not many restaurants or shops(Which was great for us,as we wanted peace and quiet).Magalluf-taxi or longer walk away if you want to feel like in Brighton-90%British with pubs and clubs-not my piece of cake,but if you like noise and clubbing,watching tv in pubs-there you go!I highly recommend Hotel Cala Vinas,honestly."

"Food very good with plenty to choose from, staff were excellent."

"The hotel was very good, food was especially good, wide range to suit everybody. The hotel room was comfortable with lovely views out to sea, a beautiful sunrise in the mornings. We noticed that around the pool area it was a little neglected, quite a few cracked/broken slabs and could have been swept a little more thorough. Although we found the hotel to be in a nice quiet position, it was a little too quiet outside of the hotel, only two small bars that catered more for the pool players and football tele lot although the little spanish restaurant was nice for a quiet drink. apart from these and a chinese restaurant there was little else to walk too in the evenings. Magaluf was a brisk 25 minute walk away, but this was not our choice for evening entertainment. We hired a car for three days and visited other resorts which we preferred. This was our fourth visit to Majorca and would not choose this hotel again because of the area. If compared to the Barcello opposite I would not rate this four stars as the Barcello is more modern and has slightly superior accomodation, but Cala Vinas has a lovely position that faces south. The staff were friendly and helpful and seemed to be very efficient at the reception desk, we arranged car hire here very swiftly and with a good rental firm. Perhaps with a little face lift this hotel would certainly be a four star."

"Fully enjoyed our stay. A very nice hotel with excellent facilities."

"The hotel was in a picturesque bay, with a small public beach nearby, which you could either walk to, or swim to from the hotel. The food was great, and the whole place was clean and well-maintained. Activities were provided for families with young children, and adults, but no pressure to join in if you felt too lazy. I would certainly consider going back there again, but the drawback was that it was too far to walk anywhere in the evenings, and the hotel entertainment was pretty dire most nights. Buses went into nearby Magaluff and also into Palma, but not frequently, so make sure you check the timetables."

"Review from a a family with 2 children (1 yr and 3yr)
The hotel is in an excellent position, only yards from a small sandy bay. Idea tl for families with young children (but i guess not for young lively teenagers!)
I have heard it recently has undergone a refurb (i think it must be rooms only). The public areas of hotel interior/decor is slightly dated compared to some other 4* spannish hotels. The rooms are what you would expect from a spanish 4*.
Restaurant dinners are excellent. I have honestly say that we did not get bored of the dinners after two weeks (like we have done at other hotels). Plenty of choice of hot and cold food.
Room is average size with a mini bar fridge (free to use) and LCD TV (only English channels were News - but this does not bother us). The childs quick-up bed was fine for out 3 yr old, but unconfortable for an adult. Amazing views over the sea and bay - it was like being on a cruise ship!
The pool area is south facing with the sun all day. Very limited umbrellas so not idea for the children. We were there in September 08 and the pool was freezing - but the pools at the other hotels were even colder! Baby pool Ok temperature."

"Spent a week 5th-12th Septmber 2008 - very good accommodation - staff very friendly - hotel mainly Spanish but later a good mix with English - meals buffet service - evening meals very samey but okay for a week. Entertainment two professional shows otherwise inhouse. TV could be with having some English channels not just sky news!! Friendly bar just across the road. Wouldn't do boat trip around island again - thought it very poor. Taxis cost 35-40 euros from airport but worth it instead of coach. A good place to chill out and relax - beach not far away very easy to get to from hotel. Would recommend it!"

"Food was good enough but would have classed this a 3+ star rating.
Most annoying, was if you were standing waiting to be served, the spanish go straight to the front are are served by the staff!!!
Certainly go on a higher floor level for the views."


"My mother, sister and I had our yearly 'girls only' holiday abroad staying at the Hi Cala Vinas Hotel, Majorca - booking it only two days in advance. We really struck gold, having an excellent room with a sea view. The food catered for all tastes (wonderful cakes and puddings!) and the vegetarian in our party was particularly pleased, as she usually struggles to find a variety of dishes and in this case she had no problem. Any queries we had were quickly answered and all members of staff were friendly and helpful. Trips could be organised via a nearby agent and taxis ordered via the hotel reception. A relatively quiet location but more lively entertainment a taxi drive away. Fab entertainment for all ages and spacious lounges/dining area. We ventured out for three half days and enjoyed the remaining time using the hotel facilities. Highly recommended."

"Hotel was average and probably should be rated as a 3 star+ rather than a 4 star. This is in comparison with other 4 star rated hotels we have stayed in. Room cleaning was not good. Floor and balcony were not touched all the time we were there and underneath the beds had probably a full season's dust and hair underneath, something that was not realised until nearer our departure. Food was fairly good although a little repetitive but for a week it was fine.
Daytime entertainment was definitely geared towards children with very little for adults despite the fact that 'the cave' could have been a great facility for adult orientated activities and currently only used for the occasional archery or shooting session.
Evening entertainment: some good acts...some poor! Sadly there was nowhere else to go unless you walk into Magaluf. Not recommended unless you're into clubbing!
Nice resort for a 'chillout' week with hotel beautifully located."

"We were recommended this hotel and weren’t disappointed.
It was great.
The staff were friendly, the hotel was spotless, the food was of a good standard and hot.
We are going to book next year, cant wait."

"the Hi cala Vinas is a freindly Hotel which offers good quality accomodation although a littel out dated. The staff are freindly on the whole and the entertainment staff do well to keep the kids happy. The food is varied and always hot and well cooked, we went all-in and were well happy with the value this hotel offered. The hotel is about 10 mins from Magaluf in a taxi, enough to be out of it, but if the mood takes you could walk it. The pictures I saw on the web site really dont do this place justice, its set in an idilic bay with crystal blue waters and a sandy beach which is about 150 meters from the hotel. The pool did have a life guard on duty while we were there, its not a great pool for kids as it is to deep, but the top pool is for the kids. The mix in the hotel in July 08 was 1/3 rd English, Spanish and the good old Germans.
I would highly recomend this hotel."

"i thought the hotel was excellent and the staff were very helpful and friendly, this was my 3rd visit to the same hotel so shows how much i liked it."
