Hotel Santa Maria Playa

Waren zwar in de Dependance, hatten aber in diesem Hotel das Frühstück. Für den Preis war alles echt super !! Das Frühstück war sehr umfangreich, Kaffee war auch ok, ist ja meist in den Hotels nichts Besonderes. die Säfte waren nur aus Zucker, ohne Geschmack.. aber alles andere war top!! Super tute Spiegeleier mit goldenen Dottern - diese Eier kamen von glücklichen Hühnern, auch alle Brotsorten sehr gut. Obst, Salate, Thunfisch... alles gab es , sogar Pasteten. Das Hotel selbst auch völlig ok, wir sind verwöhnt weil wir sonst immer 5 Sterne buchen, aber das Angebot hat uns gereizt und es war wirklich alles toll. Die Zimmer ziemlich hellhörig, aber ist halt im Süden so. Wenn über uns jemand um 4h früh auszieht, hat man das Gefühlt, dass sie Möbel verrücken oder Kegeln.. aber trotzdem auch immer gut geschlafen. Preis-LEISTUNG IST WIRKLICH TOP

Vorsicht! Das Hotel ist absolut nicht zu empfehlen. Die Zimmer sind eine Katastrophe. Eine komplette Renovierung des Hotels ist längst überfällig. 3 Sterne sind hier nicht gerechtfertigt. Es gibt viele schöne Hotels in Cala Millor. Dies hier gleicht eher einem Motel/Jugendherberge. Lasst die Finger davon und Fallt nicht auf die Angebote dieses Hotels rein.

We had purchased our trip at the last minute and we were "lucky" to have found availability at this hotel, but for a really expensive price and not worth it. *Positives* 10 minute max, walking to the beach of Cala Millor. Great location for the beach. The staff at both hotels were friendly. They spoke mostly Spanish, German and English. Close to the bars and tourist shops, a super market, a giant home goods and beach supply store, and over-priced restaurants. The hotel pool is nothing spectacular. You won't feel a resort or even a beachy vibe. Just your basic squarish pool. It did have a really deep end for diving in. You can swim in the pool at the sister hotel around the corner. That pool area was nice and family friendly. A little more beach vibes there. Not a huge pool, but good enough for a bunch of grown ups and kids. The hotels and room were clean. If you have to check out early, but your flight doesn't leave till late, you can store your luggage behind reception then go swimming, come back and shower in the guest shower and be fresh for your trip back home. That was nice. *Negatives* Transfer takes 1,5 hours from Airport Palma to the hotel and vice versa. The sound insulation within the building is nill. We heard Eeeevery single thing from our neighbors on both sides and upstairs. The worst noises were coming from housekeeping, early in the godforsaken mornings, scraping and banging furniture around. Who can sleep through that awful noise? And talk about sleep...we got very restless sleep. Due to the very uncomfortable beds and too fat, or too thin pillows. During our first few days we tried sleeping on the original single mattresses, with the box springs poking us in our backs and dips in the center of the mattress. After a few days of that torture, we asked for different mattresses and kindly enough, the housekeeping exchanged them for us. Unfortunately, those were so hard and stiff, they were also uncomfortable to sleep on. I don't have back problems, but I woke up every single day with major pain in my neck, shoulders and back. As soon as we come back home, I finally got a good night's sleep. The rooms also are *not* equipped with a refrigerator. At least not our room. (400's) I didn't know this upon reservation. So if you want a cold drink, which you most likely will after being in the wonderful heat and sunshine, you must walk outside of the hotel to buy your refreshment, or go to their bars. The food: basic choices for breakfast and dinner. Same same every day. It gets boring after a few days. Not really a good variety in hot food. Vegetarians beware, your choices are bread, salad bar, baked beans, mushy broccoli gratin, dry french fries and ketchup. Oh and something they call soup, but looks like gravy (?) Meat lovers, you get your heavenly pick of surf and turf that has been way overcooked. Enjoy the jaw exercise. I must say though, the restaurant staff are very friendly. At the Hotel S.M Playa, there is no animation or night

La stanza era spaziosa e molto pulita. Per essere un albergo 3 stelle non c´era nulla da eccepire. I pasti si consumano all´interno della struttura adiacente che dista circa 50 metri. Anche per quanto concerne il ristorante non c´e´molto da dire. L´unica cosa negativa era la confusione. Mi prendevo un tavolo e al ritorno dal buffet lo trovavo gia´occupato da qualcun´altro. E cosi´ogni volta che mi alzavo per prendere il secondo, il dolce o magari qualcosa da bere lo ritrovavo puntualmente occupato. Certe volte ho dovuto cambiare 3 volte tavolo per finire la cena. Una pecca e´stata anche la mancanza di te´biologico. I dolci inoltre erano non consumabili per il palato italiano. Mentre le altre pietanze tutto sommato accettabili.

Prima hotel voor wat wij ervan verwachtten. Precies zoals omschreven. Geen animatie, geen "geweldig" zwembad. Maar wat wil je, het strand ligt 150 meter verderop en dan wil ik niet aan welk zwembad dan ook. De boulevard met winkeltjes, restaurants en terassen ligt meteen om de hoek. Dus animatie hebben wij niet nodig. Voor mensen met kleine kinderen misschien hierdoor wat onaantrekkelijker. Het intbijt, waar je dan wel 100 meter voor moet lopen, was prima. Niet chique, maar zeker ook niet te min. Eigenlijk gewoon goed voor de prijs. Doordat we wisten dat de restaurants om de hoek lagen, hebben we geen avondeten geboekt. Kamers waren ruim en schoon, zelfs met 3 was er plek zat. 'S avonds kan je wel de kartbaan horen, maar wij gingen pas laat slapen. Enige minpunt: de airco. Die werkte haast niet. Niet alleen in onze kamer, maar in het hele hotel.

Bon hôtel, le personnel est très serviable, les chambres sont correctes. La plage est au bout de la rue a même pas 5min a pied . Piscine très bien. A savoir le petit-déjeuner et le dîner se font dans l'hôtel en face " la Santa Maria " mais cela n'est pas vraiment dérangeant. La restauration est correcte mais très variée par contre.
