Great location but a little remote if you prefer to a greater choice of better value restaurants etc. Food and drink on site is very expensive compared to the best available in the nearest town, Porto Pollena. Taxi fare to and from the town is 22 Euro (July 2019).

The views are amazing, and there is a lovely relaxed feel to the hotel. It is smart but not pretentious. It's not cheap; a pizza or a salad for lunch costs around 18 euros, and you have to pay for loungers and shade on the beach (60 euros for a day under a cabana with a double, comfy, padded wicker bed). Watersports are also extra. We opted for the half board option, and thought that the food and selection at breakfast and dinner was excellent.

Lovely setting in beautiful gardens with views over the Med. Room was good but ac unit was directly over the headboard discharging on our heads which made it difficult to sleep. Breakfast was very good. Evening buffet was expensive and the a la cartel menu had a very limited choice.
