We didn’t stay at this hotel, but I noticed on Google that they market themselves as a restaurant, and there is a shortage of restaurants in Cala Pi. We went there one day and a friendly, professional manager-looking man said yes of course you can eat here, it’s a buffet, and it £21/head plus drinks. The buffet was average but it served a purpose, the only strange thing was to be asked for payment as soon as we’d got our drinks and before we’d been up for food. On a second night later on in the week, we went back again. I asked a young lad for a table for 7, and he said “No, I’m sorry it’s hotel guests only”. I told him we’d come only 3 days ago, as non-guests, and that we paid £21/head. He said “Oh yes, I remember you” and everything was okay, he gave us a table. He clearly couldn’t be bothered…? I can’t think of another explanation. The food was much better on this occasion, 7 of us had cocktails, some water, and two courses, for 190 Euros, which I was happy with. As we left the restaurant, I spotted the professional manager-looking man in the bar across the road, his shirt undone, and he’d clearly had ‘one over the eight’ as we say in the UK. He held his glass up at us and shouted something in Spanish, which didn’t sound the friendliest, but I’m not sure. So a bit of a whirlwind experience at the Ona Club restaurant. The hotel really should market this as a restaurant – and sort their staff out – as there is clearly a market for restaurants here. We were here a year ago, and two have since disappeared, leaving only a few.
