“Outstanding staff and beautiful food”

Outstanding staff and lovely hotel. This was our first trip staying at the Sol de Alcudia hotel, but we have been to Alcudia a couple of times before. From the moment we arrived the staff were amazing, extremely helpful and couldn’t do enough for you. We were on a late flight in, arriving at the hotel just before midnight. There was food waiting the rooms, check in was swift. I honestly don’t think I have been anywhere where the staff have done more, been more genuinely friendly or cared more for their guests. This is everyone from reception staff, restaurant staff (especially Maria who seemed to be everywhere all the time) to even the life guard who played catch with our son in the pool for ages just because he wanted to. The rooms are small, but perfectly clean and usable. The food is some of the best we have had at hotels. If you’re considering staying then please do, it’s a wonderful hotel with the best staff you could hope for.

We stayed at this hotel for our week’s holiday which did not disappoint. The cleanliness of the hotel is impeccable! Although we were self catering we ate at the pool bar aswell as the main restaurant and found the selection and standard of food was really good. Although the pool was really busy and sometimes difficult to get a sun lounger we had a balcony with a sun lounger and the beach was a very short walk from the hotel. Clear crystal shallow water and a clean beach meant there was plenty of choice to spend our days relaxing and catching the sun! Would highly recommend this hotel and location for a relaxing holiday !

We stayed from 1st May until 4th May for our first family holiday. We were stressed travelling as it was a late flight and we didnt get to the hotel until 3:15am but this was more easyjets fault as the transfer waited at the airport for an hour after everyone else had left. When we got to the hotel our 2 year old was crying and kicking off, the gentleman on reception straight away offered my partner the room key so she could bring our son to bed and let me check in which we thought was a really nice touch. 2 minutes after this my partner and son appeared back down as there was no cot in the room. Within a minute the gentleman om reception had this fixed and had a cot all set up in our room. The hotel had left us 3 dinners in the room for us getting in amd a few big bottles of water which was really appreciated. We stayed in the one bedroom apartment and it was absolutely beautiful and spotless. The staff are so friendly and will do anything they can to make your stay as smooth as possible. We did not hear any noise from the bar downstairs or the bars outside the hotel. The hotel is a 2 minute walk to the beach and a perfect location for local shops and a few supermarkets (colber was best and cheapest) we loved this hotel so much that we are already booking to go back again next year but for longer this time.

10 nights spent at Sol De Alcudia with the wife and little one on a self catering basis. Arrival: We arrived around 1.45pm where we were greeted by reception staff who were very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately check in was not until 3pm, this being the standard check in time, resulting in us having just over an hours wait before being able to access our room. Reception do however offer to take contact details to contact you once your room is ready, allowing you to enjoy the facilities whilst you wait. We packed swimming costumes at the top of our case and used the hotels facilities to get changed. This allowed us to utilise the pool straight away. Room: Although this is the first official review of Sol De Alcudia, this is not our first stay here but in fact our second. Once within the room, we were impressed with the obvious renovations since our last visit 3 years before. The rooms were modern, clean and finished to a good standard including the living space, bedroom and bathroom. We opted for a one bedroom apartment which done what it said on the tin, again impressed with the space on offer. The room itself had all requirements for a self catering trip, cooking hob, microwave, fridge alongside the utensils needed for cooking. Our room was pool facing and although there was noise as the night progressed, this is something to be expected when on holiday and hotel is located near pubs and offers entertainment. Overall no complaints as this quietened towards the end of the night. Facilities: The hotel offers free WiFi throughout the hotel and this is provided upon arrival. There is a safe within the room itself however this is an additional fee for those that require it. We visited the hotel during the off season, meaning the pool was quieter and sun loungers were available. I’m of the view that during the busier season there may be more of a challenge to get sun loungers as there are not vast amounts however again for us not a problem. Pool itself, clean and as expected. Kids pool located next to the bigger pool and has a slide and other bits within to keep the kids busy. We made use of the pool bar and visited the hotels restaurant on one occasion and were again impressed by both. Prices fair and on par with the other pubs and food places located near by. The entertainment team were friendly and energetic and made efforts to engage both with us and our little one. In the evenings there is a kids disco most evenings however there was only a show around once per week. In our previous visit there was a show every evening but we previously visited during the summer holidays so I am unsure if the shows become more frequent as the summer goes on and the hotels becomes busier. Location: We were around 45 minutes on a coach transfer from the airport to the hotel. The hotel itself is located near pubs, restaurants and shops meaning plenty on offer if you are self catering or just fancy a pint at one of the bars nearby. Lots of the bars offer entertainment both for the kids and adults, although basic entertainment it does the job and it was always a good atmosphere. The beach was only a short 5 to 10 minute walk away from the hotel. During our stay we visited the old town alcudia where the local markets are held. This is a 45/50 minute walk from the hotel which we completed going to and from. Easy to locate as it is a straight walk and again for those who don’t mind a wander, more than easy to access on foot. Within a taxi it’s a short 10 minute drive from where the hotel is located. If travelling with children there is an evening fun park which consists of outdoor bouncy castles, this is something we found online and were able to access again within a 45 minute walk from the hotel. Departure: Check out for all guests is 11am and by 11:05am the cleaner chapped the door to ensure we were packing and getting ready to leave. Thankfully we were or if running late then it appeared you were going to be encouraged to leave. The hotel has showers available and again a room to store your luggage whilst you wait for your return home. Showering facilities need to be booked in advance to reserve a time slot and we found it was better to do this sooner rather than later as the slots filled up quickly. Overall after a 10 night stay, we would return to this hotel again. No complaints after our time here during this holiday. I’ve given the hotel a 4 out of 5 stars and was advise that it is good value for money on a self catering basis.
