Melia Cala d'Or

Cala d’Or ist nicht gerade schön

To begin with: If you're going to Mallorca, and you're looking for a beautiful and quiet place to stay close to the beach and the town, I would indeed recommend this place warmly. Our family (2 adults, 2 small kids) truly enjoyed our stay thanks to the spacious room (junior suite with kitchenette), absolutely lovely and lush garden, great pools and overall tranquil ambience. We had this place recommended from friends, and it really feels like a gem! However, a few things did disappoint, where we felt the hotel did not live up to its 5* and rather steep price point. The service was mostly kind and warm, but having stayed in several high-end hotels, it also at times seemed a bit unfocused and not very customer-centric. As an example, we had booked a kitchenette in order to be able to prepare food for our youngest one. The kitchen was extremely simple and lacked basic stuff like handkerchiefs and cutting boards. When we asked the reception for a cutting board (pretty impossible to go without), we were met with a confused reaction and initially told that they didn't have any, but that they could check. It then took some time before we got one. We were surprised that this was apparently an odd request. We also experienced more than once that the cleaning was quite insufficient: dishes were not done, there was visible dirt in the bathroom etc. After mentioning this to the staff, it improved a bit, but I would still say that it's far from the standard I had expected for the paid price. We also had a rather unfortunate experience when we were leaving, where we asked the hotel to book us a taxi for the airport. We had clearly asked for child and infant seats, but when the driver arrived, he had no idea how to install these, neither had the personel from the reception who tried to help us. A couple of times they told us, it was all good, when in fact the seats were not at all fastened to the base. I might be a neurotic mom, but to be honest, this was quite unsettling to me, and the hotel did very little to accomodate us or apologize for the situation. Again,I had expected more, and it was just an unpleasant way to end our vacation. I would absolutely recommend this place, but to me it's closer to a high-end bed and breakfast than a 5* hotel.

Brilliant boutique hotel We’ve just returned from a fab week st Melia Boutique Cala D’or. We travelled as a family with a toddler and I can honestly say it’s one of the best holidays we’ve ever had. The hotel is set in beautiful well kept grounds, the staff were all very friendly and helpful and the amenities were brilliant. We particularly loved the all-hours access indoor pool and spa facilities. The playground was a huge hit with our son, as was the pool. Thank you to your wonderful staff for making our holiday an unforgettable one!

Lovely hotel Had a lovely stay at this hotel - the staff are super friendly, the rooms clean and comfortable and the breakfast was very nice with lots of choice. The hotel is very conveniently located to the beach and restaurants. The only downside is that most of the sunbeds are in the shade for a lot of the day due to the layout of the pool but that was fine for us! We would definitely stay there again.

Wir waren 14 Tage zu Gast in diesem wunderschönen Boutique Hotel und haben uns hier mit dem kleinen Gartenparadies rundum sehr wohl gefühlt. Das gebuchte Premium Zimmer - mit Whirlpool auf der Terrasse - ist sehr empfehlenswert. Das Hotel liegt zentral und ist dennoch ruhig gelegen, sodass man sich hier neben dem Poolbereich, dem Spa und dem Gym eine schöne Auszeit nehmen kann. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Nochmals vielen lieben Dank hierfür an das gesamte Hotelpersonal, vom Empfang über den Service im Restaurant und den Reinigungskräften hinaus, welche Ihren Job mit Leidenschaft und fast familiär ausüben. Nochmals herzlichen Dank für die gelungene Geburtstagsüberaschung, welche wir auf der Terrasse sehr genossen haben. Hasta pronto de nuevo...

The property was cute. There are two pools, one being 24 hours and a restaurant on the property. The room is a little outdated. The tub in the bathroom is too high, often causing leaks. It feels a little dark in the room with not alot of natural lighting. Nevertheless, the staff was amazing and had good suggestions upon check in.
