11 nights in this delightful hotel on a B&B basis for myself & my wife. What a relaxing break in lovely surroundings. The reception was spotless and welcoming, staffed by a delightful lady who greeted us with a smile and yet efficiently sorted us out with our room etc, gave us a little site map, info for dining, even though we had arrived well after 'normal hours'. The room / apartment was very clean and bigger than we had anticipated, well laid out with a kitchen-diner type layout and separate bedroom and bathroom /shower. Main area & bedroom had independent air con units which shut down if doors or windows were opened. Kitchen had pretty much most things you would expect in a pseudo self catering unit, hotplate, combi-microwave, toaster etc.. with an extractor overhead. Dish cloths and liquid were supplied, as were crockery & cutlery etc for 4. The seating area was of 2 large sofas ( additional beds ) with a low coffee table and a further unit upon which sat a large flat screen Samsung.. English channels disappeared during a weather spike but we weren't overly concerned, it had an hdmi slot if we wanted to watch something off our phone/tablet etc. Bi-fold patio doors led out onto a small terrace with a typical table & chairs. Bedroom was of a twin bed (pushed together) layout with hanging room and shelves in a wardrobe, floating bedside shelves with lights etc and a descent sized wall mounted flatscreen Samsung opposite. We found the beds to be firm and comfy. Bathroom was entered via a huge sliding frosted glass door about which my wife had doubts over privacy etc but they were unfounded.. Again, spotless and well maintained with complimentary soap and shower gel, hair drier and a large mirror and another sliding glass door to access the walk in shower which was powerful and no issues over hot water. The hotel grounds are delightful, with the centre being the pool area, tall palm type trees and flowering shrubs & bushes were everywhere in the grassy vistas, pathways were well maintained and clean. The pool was seen to be checked daily for water quality etc, and although we didn't make use of it ourselves it was a popular attraction for guests on sunbeds around the perimeter. Only a 3 minute walk into the main marina area of Cala'n Bosc, this hotel was a delight to stay in... BUT.. the catering in the evening was disappointing. Breakfast was buffet style and had so may choices - however, the hot plate servery offerings could be somewhat warmer. I understand the potential issues of maintaining hot food under lamps, especially in an eco driven economy, but please turn up the heat on the scrambled eggs and bacon etc, having said that - omelettes and fried eggs were cooked while you wait. We also dined twice in the evening, and were rather disappointed in the offerings.. I wouldn't recommend the all inclusive option if i was totally honest. A long review i know, but to sum up.. great hotel, great staff, great rooms, great location, great breakfast ( bar the cold eggs n bacon lol ), great maid service, lacking in evening catering.. but a huge array of restaurants and bars just 3 minutes walk. And the beach just 5 mins in the other direction. Would we stay there again... absolutely.

“Lovely hotel. Take care if food allergies”

Staff fabulous especially front desk. Rooms well kept and clean. All inclusive food was lovely in the restaurant but they need to keep the hot food and plates much warmer for H&S. There is a microwave near the toasters.. Place was spotless including the pool. All staff really helpful and friend... more

Staff fabulous especially front desk. Rooms well kept and clean. All inclusive food was lovely in the restaurant but they need to keep the hot food and plates much warmer for H&S. There is a microwave near the toasters.. Place was spotless including the pool. All staff really helpful and friendly. Pool bar food wasn't great but we ate so much at 3 meals we didn't need to eat it. Be careful to ask for the restaurant manager or hotel manager or chef who actually cooked the food in the restaurant if you have food allergies. They have symbols on some food but not all. Despite a spanish translation I had brought on a card of no lactose, no molluscs and no seafood 2 of them agreed I could eat the John Dory fish but there were prawns underneath the fish. I ate one by accident but spat it out. The hotel manager was worried and offered me a doctor. However the next day the allergy signs were still haphazard and missing. The restaurant manager and the chef who actually cooked the food kept me right from then on And were lovely.. The man standing tbehind the counter hadn't cookedithe food and had no clue or English and didn't understand my Spanish card giving my allergies
