Playa Mar Aparthotel and Spa

Ctra. Formentor S/n, 07470 Pollensa

Puerto Pollensa, Majorca, Spain

 4 Star Hotel

In terms of location this hotel is in a great spot. On top of the awesome mountain views, you’re just a few steps from Puerto Pollensa’s waterfront, which is studded with little sandy coves. What’s more, the resort centre and its main beach - a huge sweep of golden sands - is an enjoyable 20-minute stroll away. To get there, you follow a cobbled path that snakes along the shoreline between pretty pine trees. And if you don’t fancy walking, there are plenty of buses and cabs to run you there and back.

The Playa Mar has loads going for it and a home-from-home atmosphere. Life centres on the huge pool. Styled like a cloverleaf with one leaf set aside for toddlers, it’s set into big terraces laden with sunloungers and palms. And adults can get their share of me-time as well, with a small indoor pool and gym. Also, planned for 2011 is a new building containing a Kids' Club, crèche, Splash Park, spa and entertainment theatre.

In the food stakes, you’ve got a poolside snack bar serving light bites and drinks, plus a smart buffet restaurant rustling up all the Spanish and English favourites for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

The rooms, meanwhile, tick all the boxes for an outdoorsy holiday with the kids – they’re simple and bright. And you can book studios or one-bedroom apartments with kitchenettes for a little more independence.

Studios for 4 have 2 beds with 1 sofa bed and a pull-out bed. Maid service is 5 times a week, towels are changed 3 times a week and linen twice a week.

Poor

David from Bristol

Check-in date:

On first impressions it looked like a smart hotel and the staff were friendly. My stay was greatly let down by the appalling standard of the food in the restaurant. There was a reasonable selection of food and it looked good, however I found hardly any of it enjoyable to eat. On the first night that the pasta was rubbery, the rice hard and the meat mostly gristle. I hoped the breakfast would be better but it wasn’t. The scrambled egg was gritty, as if it had been partly reconstituted from powder and the tinned peaches were grey in the centre. I was staying there on half board for 3 nights as I was unable to get into my preferred hotel for the full stay of my cycling holiday. I am not very fussy with my food and I needed calories to fuel my cycling but found it difficult to find much that was edible. The food was consistently bad for the three days I was there. I then moved to the Pollenca Park Hotel. This is a much cheaper hotel with a vastly better standard of food.

Glenn from Doncaster

Check-in date:

We went at the beginning of April 2012 for five days. We found it a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The staff were excellent, particularly the staff at breakfast and on the reception. There was a gentleman on reception that deserves a particular mention, I'm not sure of his name but he went the extra mile to print off our boarding passes and ensured they were handed to us in person. The only down side was the cleanliness of the rooms, cleaned but not thorough enough. Although the rest of the hotel was really well kept.

Top Tip: A trip into the old town of Pollensa. Don't always eat on the main streets.
