fab hotel..disgusted with the reps!

Advantages: fab hotel,fab pools,fab beach,fab price.
Disadvantages: the airtours staff,rude, arrogant.

...only a bus ride from palma and magaluf, theres so many local attractions to do in sa coma, horse riding, safair, boat trips, scuba diving. but the pools are so gorgeous at the boogie you'll struggle to tear yourself away.leave your towels out before 8am though if you want a sunbed. the only thing bad about the hotel was the airtours reps who work there, they were very arrogant,rude, unfriendly and thougjt they were celebs. but the hotel is faultless.the spanish staff are a credit to them.if only the airtours people could learn from them. if your looking for a fantastic holiday in a lovely family resort then stay at the boogie in sa coma, you wont want to leave.xx...

Review of Hotetur Bouganvilla Apartments, Sa Coma

My favourite hotel

Advantages: Facilities, Location
Disadvantages: None

...a restaurant available serving food with different themes, although we haven't sampled this as there is such a good choice of restaurants nearby, we tend to eat out as part of our evening out and then go back to the hotel later for the entertainment. There is also a very good poolside eatery serving all kinds of snacks such as kebabs, omelette baguettes etc. The location is just fab. As soon as you step foot outside the entrance there is a Spar which is really handy for picking up milk, bread, cakes etc for snacking on. Then there is a selection of gift shops, restaurants etc on you walk down to the beach which is a nice 5 - 10 min stroll and totally flat. This is a really first class hotel in a lovely friendly compact resort, Sa Coma. I am someone who usually likes to try out different hotels and resorts, but since I discovered this place, I...

Review of Protur Safari Park Apartahotel, Sa Coma

Butlins in the sun!

Advantages: Plenty to do, good entertainment, great for children
Disadvantages: Some shabby accommodation, expensive supermarket

...Firstly I must say that I booked this very last minute when there wasn't much more around, and after reading a lot of very mixed reviews, I decided that we would just put our heads down and go for it, and even though we got off to a bad start, I am relatively glad that we did. The Bouganvilla Aparthotel is situated on the East coast of Mallorca in Sa Coma. There is a 1 hour transfer from Palma Airport (1hr 45 mins if the coach drops off along the way), but we took this as an opportunity to sit back see a bit of the Island. On arrival, our check in was very simple. We were given a room number and a map to direct us to our apartment and as we were staying all inclusive, our wrist bands were put on (silver for U18's, blue for the drinkers!) ~*~Accommodation~*~ When we entered our room, I really could have cried. After...

Review of Hotetur Bouganvilla Apartments, Sa Coma

CHILDREN WELCOME !!

Advantages: Location
Disadvantages: None that I can think of !!!!

...A fantastic family orientated hotel that actually welcomes children!! I have stayed in this hotel on 3 occasions and was very disappointed when Thomson Holidays decided to withdraw the hotel from the Skytours programme and add it to the Thomson Family programme. You may think it would make no difference but it made a huge difference to the cost for one parent families. With Skytours they guaranteed free child places at certain properties throughout the summer season but the Thomson brand only offered a discount and not a free place! The hotel itself provides a great setting for a memorable family holiday within the peaceful resort of Sa Coma, 150m away from the gentle sloping white sands of Sa Coma beach. There are also bus stops just around the corner from the main entrance to take you to nearby Cala Millor and onwards...

Review of Coma Gran Aparthotel, Sa Coma

Is Sa Coma Mallorca Ugly

Advantages: sea, sun, chillout factor
Disadvantages: Brits, Germans, over commercialisation

...Sa Coma has been described in the AA Guide as the ugliest resort in Mallorca. Well yes, it is a typical "Majorca" holiday destination - monolithic hotel and apartment blocks surrounding a beautiful sandy but very overcrowded beach (even in October). But Mallorca is an island with contrasts from beautiful to ugly, and what you get is what you look for. Sa Coma is situated on the east coast, about an hour from the airport. It is in fact sandwiched between S'Illot and Cala Millor, both of which are equally heavily developed. But it provided us with an excellent family destination - helped by the fact that our apartment (in Playsol Apartment block) was one of the better looking buildings overlooking the beach, situated just a couple of hundred yards from it, and shops bars and restaurants all around us. The resort itself is so full...

Review of Majorca in General

Sa Caleta Playa resort

Advantages: family friendly. lolvey staff. Relaxed atmosphere. Safe
Disadvantages: None.

...and in front of the row of apartments are all the facilities- swimming pool, bar, etc. Sa Caleta Playa- the accommodation♥ Sa Caleta Playa apartments are tiny compared to other resorts I had been to. And that?s what it is- a resort, it is not simply standalone apartments. It has all the features of a hotel- e.g. reception, bar etc. But it is just apartments instead of rooms. There are 107 apartments in block of three. As they are in blocks of three, there is a ground apartment, a first floor apartment and a second floor one. The first and second floor apartments have a balcony and the ground floor accommodation has a terrace garden. I stayed on the first floor and had a balcony which was great because it overlooked the pool and you could also see the beach from it. Also there was a table and chairs on the balcony so that my...

Review of Sa Caleta Playa, Minorca

If you're planning a visit - PLEASE think twice!

Advantages: None that I can think of!
Disadvantages: Highly distressing - not somewhere I would EVER recommend!

...The Auto Safari (Sa Coma) is situated on the outskirts of the resorts of Sa Coma & Cala Millor. A bus and land train run between the resorts of Cala Bona, Cala Millor & Sa Coma picking up tourists to go to the Auto Safari. We were aware of the auto safari from previous visits and decided this year our children were old enough to enjoy a visit and hopped on a bus one morning. I wish we had not bothered! At the safari entrance we off loaded from the bus onto a land train and set off - the actual safari part is okay - altho' barren there is lots of room for animals to roam. Our only concern during this part was the mindless idiots who had come prepared for the monkey area and lobbed bread rolls and bananas off the 'train' - the result was a handful of monkeys launching themselves onto the 'train' and several ;terrified...

Review of Auto Safari, Sa Coma

Sa marina hotel 'cala d'or'

Advantages: Central location, near to the beach
Disadvantages: Limited evening entertainment

...I have been going to this hotel now for the past 5 years, & it truly is a quality hotel in all aspects. It is an aparthotel, so you have the option of self catering or half board, which gives you the extra space of a living area if you do go half board. I would recommend pool side rather than the road, it is not a busy road, in fact quite quiet, but you do get the locals going past on scooters which are just noisy within themselves. The standard of the rooms are exceptional, with daily towel change & maid service. Piped music in all the corridors to the rooms, & flowers by the lifts makes this such a beatuifull hotel. The restaurant is superb, with a good choice of food ranging from hot & cold food. The deserts are what you just have to see for yourself! If you are on a diet then dont go, you will not be able to resist what there is...

Review of Sa Marina Aparthotel, Cala d'Or

The Strand Palace Hotel

Advantages: Central location, clean
Disadvantages: Food, rooms

...We stayed at this hotel in London a little over a month ago now for two nights, we chose this hotel mainly because of the central location and because it was only a ten minuite walk from the show we had booked to go too. Check in was very quick - About ten minuites and the staff at the reception seemed very friendly. My first thoughts on the hotel was that it looked really clean and that it was nicely decorated and it looked modern. I was a little dissapointed with our room as it was very small and basic, our room had a double bed, tea and coffee making facilities, a tv with satellite and a small, basic en suite bathroom with a shower. The views from our room very very poor - A block of offices which made our room dark as they were so close. The hotel has two bars and two resturaunts, the bars were again nicely decorated...
