“Good stay but felt unsafe at times”

We stayed in a 4 bed apartment ( Double bed 2 Singles and 2 Sofa beds ) All beds were comfortable and apartment as well as bedding and utensils were clean. Only complaint is that for 5 nights in a row we had people knocking at our door and ringing the doorbell in the early hours ( we had 2 children with us so this was distressing for them ) The apartments are not gated and people from outside can access the grounds. For that reason we would not stay again as at times it didn’t feel safe. Despite that all staff were helpful and polite. Location was good 2 great restaurants and a small shop opposite and in walking distance to a bigger supermarket and a Lidl which is always a bonus.

“Great Holiday”

No thrills accommodation - clean, quiet (in the day time), easy come easy go. Bar food ok to fill a gap and reasonably priced (latte €4, pint €3.60 cocktail €6) Staff friendly & Alberto at the Bar is very good, from coffee to cocktails he knows what he’s doing!!

No thrills accommodation - clean, quiet (in the day time), easy come easy go. Bar food ok to fill a gap and reasonably priced (latte €4, pint €3.60 cocktail €6) Staff friendly & Alberto at the Bar is very good, from coffee to cocktails he knows what he’s doing!! Room - clean, spacious, family of 4 stayed without problem. Serviced twice in a week. Pool - great. Clean and never a fight for a sun bed. Plenty for all. Hotel Duva welcome you to their entertainment plan as long as you buy drinks - this was great as it’s virtually on the same site. Location - the hotel is serviced by the local buses, easy to reach Pollenca & Port De Pollensa, both routes are less than 6 euros for a family of 4 return. The Rosa Blanca opposite the hotel does nice reasonably priced food, shows all sport & drinks are cheap and plentiful. Minimart is also across the road and negligibly more expensive than euroski which is a ten minute walk away. We bought fresh pastries, bread & jams which got us by really well for a cheap breakfast / lunch snacks. Restaurants - Velomar 10/10 - Joker Bistro 10/10 - DKT 10/10. BUSES - YOU DO NOT HAVE TO ASK THE DRIVER ANYTHING, JUST TAP IN AND TAP OUT PER PERSON. A taxi to the port never cost us more than a fiver - just ask reception and they will call it. Pollenca market is on a Sunday & Tuesday - well worth a visit. Bad points - some rooms are let by locals and at weekends they were in the pool until 2am. The entertainment at Hotel Duva is very noisy until 11pm, after that it’s fine. If you want a quiet night in - this is not possible (we spent each evening ah the Duva having been in to the port for dinner, it’s not really a bad point regarding the noise it just depends if you’re a stay inner or go outer etc)

“Happy to be back at Habitat”

Having booked flights over a year ago and the accommodation in March 2021, we weren't sure until a couple of weeks before departure date whether we would actually be having our holiday. The fact that we had stayed at Habitat on two occasions previously meant that at least we knew what to expect as far as accommodation was concerned. On arrival we quickly realised just what an effect Covid had had: reception was only open for limited hours and the bar / restaurant area was closed till next year. None of that actually bothered us. We were warmly welcomed by the receptionist who went out of her way to explain how we could get help if we needed it when reception was closed. We had an apartment overlooking the second pool as requested and we quickly eased into the routine of a peaceful and relaxing holiday. The shortage of guests meant the place was very quiet and we could easily make ourselves comfortable anywhere in the grounds. Wifi in our apartment was unreliable, but ironically the problem was sorted on our last day (though we hadn't complained), at which point it became very good. We would agree that there is evidence of a little fraying at the edges in places, but the grounds are very well maintained. For a first foreign holiday in more than eighteen months the familiarity and unpretentiousness of Habitat suited us very well. Please note that the questions below relating to Covid measures do not totally apply because apart from the reception area, all access points are out of doors.

Would like to say a huge thank you for the hotel staff. Carmen the receptionist was very helpful.Always with a smile on her face . We stayed as a family of 6 . We really enjoyed our holiday . Nice & tidy apartment.Beautiful & quiet area. You don’t need to reserve the sunbeds by pool an early morning,they were always available. Not much people at all stayed in hotel . The one thing we needed is a bar or restaurant,they were closed because of COVID . Hotel didn’t serve any food . But it wasn’t an issue. An easy access to local bus . We definitely can recommend this place .

“Four Night Stay”

Stayed with 5 cycling friends (2appts) 8-12 Sept. two travellers suffered from bites during the night which were either ants of bed bags.

Stayed with 5 cycling friends (2appts) 8-12 Sept. two travellers suffered from bites during the night which were either ants of bed bags. The apartments look a little tired and could do with some basic maintenance. Shower was dodgy, the toilet door needs easing, air con issues, ants everywhere. We were on the top floor and there was a very worrying huge crack through the wall and floor on the top landing. Due to COVID the reception closed at 5 which was difficult for us as we were cycling and were back after 5. No reception on Sunday’s to hand back keys. The beds were comfy, kitchen was basic but clean with all utensils. We did not use the pool as every night a couple of ducks would arrive and promptly drop the contents of their stomach around the pool and in it. The receptionist was extremely helpful on arrival and got us checked in very quickly, did not see any other staff. The room was cleaned once during our 5 day stay. It’s a bit of a walk to town that wasn’t an issue for us but frequent busses pass. Have stayed in the Duva next door which was better. COVID has had a effect on the Habitat and Duva as there were very few people staying and not many facilities available at both sites. We all love Pollenca as a location.
