Lovely room and view, disappointing restaurant
Booked through Jet2 and stayed half board as a couple at Catalonia del Mar. We had stayed in Cala Bona before but not at this hotel. We have both negatives and positives from our week here. Positives Our room. We had booked a Superior room with panoramic sea/harbour view and we weren’t disappointed. Situated on the fourth floor straight opposite the harbour the view was stunning, the large terrace had 2 sunbeds, a table and chairs and a coffee table and was spotlessly clean. The room was large and had a massive double bed which was firm and comfortable. There was plenty of wardrobe space and a free to use safe. Towels changed regularly and room cleaned. Aircon was spot on and the sea breeze through the patio doors was lovely. The staff, every one of the staff we met from reception, pool bar, pool lifeguard, bar staff , restaurant staff and cleaning staff were friendly, helpful and cheerful. Location, the hotel is at the quiet end of the pedestrianised promenade of Cala Bona so it is quiet all day and night but, there are lots of bars and restaurants very near the hotel. Negatives Not being an early morning towel on a sunbed couple we found that after our post breakfast walk it was difficult to find two sunbeds together with a parasol. The whole pool area seemed to be crammed together like sardines with no room to move sunbeds or parasols with the sun. Top marks to the lifeguard for doing his best. Restaurant. We found the service in the restaurant at both breakfast and dinner to be quite chaotic. People queueing for food and staff at the cooking station just ignoring them . It seemed obvious that there weren’t enough staff in that area of the restaurant. We ate out four nights because of this All in all we had a lovely holiday mostly due to having the room we had. Would we return to this hotel? Probably not.

Everything!
My first time at this place and it was amazing me and my partner said we would definitely come again! The people are so friendly the staff are so nice and quick to help visitors with disabilities around the pool, we only booked with breakfast in the morning but there’s loads of options for breakfast and you can’t fault it. The rooms are always cleaned everyday it’s a brilliant location for other bars and shops and nice and peaceful with beautiful views from all across the hotel
We will 100% go back
We have just returned from a holiday at the Catalonia Del Mar and it was brilliant. We would 100% return. We stayed half board in a panoramic sea view terrace and the view was fantastic. Rooms clean and more than functional for what you would need on holiday. The bathroom was spotless and the shower was the best! The pool area is quite small but it was more than adequate. We never had an issue getting a sun lounger together and the life guard was fantastic. All the staff are friendly and more than happy to help. It’s a shame to see so many people be quite abrupt or dismissive with the staff at times as they do try so hard to make your stay enjoyable. The location is amazing. Safe, close to everything you need and a lovely walk in to Cala Millor if you want a sandy beach with shallow waters. The safes attached to the parasols on the beach are great and just add that bit more security if you want to go swimming. The hotel does need a facelift/ spruce up but it’s not dirty or shabby and only if you walk in looking for issues would we have found any. The food for breakfast is plentiful, from the usual fry up to fruit and yoghurt and a wide selection of pastries. They also have a specific Gluten Free area. Evening meal was again lovely with lots to choose from. I travelled with a fussy eater and there was not a night that his plate wasn’t full and he enjoyed it all. If you are really fussy about food then go B&B and eat out as there are lots of restaurants very close by. This is a buffet restaurant which requires queues like nearly every buffet restaurant I’ve ever been too, the meat is cooked fresh in front of you and the salad bar is always available however it is not a waiter service restaurant, we loved it. We can’t comment on the entertainment as we went walking after our evening meal and sampled the local bars etc. the safe in the room is free of charge. We found the drinks in the restaurant and pool bar reasonably priced also.
Lovely hotel, great holiday
We are currently staying in this hotel, the staff are lovely nothing too much trouble, the room is spacious and cleaned daily 😀 got to mention the Queen size memory foam bed, it's amazing 🥰food is good fresh and always something for everyone, the communal areas are dated, but that is nothing. Lovely location also on the harbour, would definitely return 😀
