We stayed as a family group of 10 for 5 nights from the 20th to 25th July, we had all stayed at the hotel before and we all had a really great time. Our rooms were clean and comfortable; we had a very useful fridge in our rooms and although two of our party had a problem with the air conditioning it was resolved and a new unit was fitted. The pool is lovely; the hotel was full but there were plenty of sun beds and places to sit. The public areas were always kept clean and the pool and surrounding areas were cleaned every morning. We always put our rubbish in the bins provided and tidied up before leaving the bar / pool area however we noticed that some people left the tables covered in dirty plates and rubbish and didn’t clear up after themselves which made more work for the cleaning staff, a little consideration for others goes a long way. The staff worked very hard, especially the bar staff and the entertainments team. Yes, there were queues at the bar but we were quite happy with the token system for drinks. We did think they were short staffed at times and did need at least 2 people on duty at the bar all of the time in peak season. We thought there was plenty of choice in the restaurants at each meal time. There was always grilled meat and fish, plenty of salads and fresh fruit as well as different dishes on themed nights. Sometimes there was a wait for the dishes to be refilled but the tables were cleared promptly and quickly relaid. The beach at Cala Llonga is lovely. There are a few shops and a selection of restaurants to choose from. It is an easy walk down to the beach, harder coming back up in the heat. The hotel is built into the hillside with pretty gardens and would not be suitable for the less mobile. We would like to say that you have to remember this a 2-star hotel and nowhere is perfect but we believe it represents good value for money and is ideal for families.

“A pleasant experience”

Our stay at the Globales Montemar was thoroughly enjoyable. Like many others, we had our reservations after reading some of the reviews before we arrived, but we honestly had a great holiday. The hotel did exactly what we wanted it to do, and most importantly, our 10 and 11-year-olds had an amazing time, which is what really matters. Every member of staff was extremely polite and friendly to both us and our children, and the animation team work incredibly hard every single day to keep everyone entertained. Yes, there can be a short wait for a drink at busy times, but in our experience it was never more than five minutes, which is perfectly reasonable for an all-inclusive hotel during peak season. I've also seen comments about the cleanliness around the pool area. In all honesty, if some guests had a little more respect and simply used the many bins provided, this wouldn't be an issue. We witnessed several occasions where parents seemed far more interested in making the most of the all-inclusive bar than keeping an eye on what their children were doing, which isn't the hotel's fault. Don't let some of the negative reviews put you off booking this hotel. For the price you pay, it offers fantastic value for money. One final mention has to go to the air conditioning in our room—it was absolutely brilliant and made a huge difference in the heat. We would happily return.
