Hotell Mallorca - Hotell i Can Picafort i Mallorca, Spanien

We returned to Can Picafort for the first time since our honeymoon in 1973. It has changed, but for the better. We really enjoyed the promenade area along the beach and strrolled happily here past the bars and restaurant and, eating there . The beach is extensive and well kept. We were saddened to see our original hotel, the Son Baulo, closed. Is Thompsons refurbishing or will they knock it down? The beach area around Son Baulo is still wonderful and we had a nice drink in the seafront cafe. Our hotel, EIX Platja Daurada, was at the opposite end of town with easy access to the main roads to Palma, Inca and Alcudia. It is an ideal lkocation for expoloring, with easy access to Arta, Cala Radjada and the coast with the Caves of Arta and the Caves of Drac. We went to the Arta Caves, which were magnificent. We also visited Alcudia, Polenca, Cala Radjada, Arta and Inca. Inca market is huge, but there is not a great deal of diversity amongst the stalls - leather goods, jewellery, hats, belts, bags and wallets, watches, kitchen implements, flowers, fruit and vegatables, and a few with lace goods. Alcudia market is as good. Our hotel was excellent and we would stay there again. The staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. The bar is very good, while breakfast left you spoiled for cholice. The pools and adjoining beach are magnificent. Majorca is great; the roads are greatly improved, but watch out for cyclists! It is also good to not have to pay to park! Make sure you try Tapas.

The Hotel was in a perfect location as it was only a minute walk from the beach. The breakfast was delicious and the room was exactly what we needed on our holiday. The only issue was that as most hotels around were all inclusive there were few restaurants.

A great find and not what we were expecting. A hotel with individual chalets that were very comfortable with bedroom, bathroom and living room with small kitchenette. All basic but adequate. Good bathroom with excellent shower and plenty of hot water. The two swimming pools on site were excellent and plenty of sun loungers around the leisure pool. We went out most of the time but enjoyed the restaurant and bar. Food was good, plenty of it and lots of choice. There were set times for supper but nobody was really checking. Hotel was very popular with German parents and young famillies and they were a delight. There did seem to be German reps there organising activities but we didn't really find out what this was all about. The whole atmosphere was very relaxed, no excessive noise, ideal for famillies and couples. Not sure if teenagers would find it very exciting but plenty to do around the area. I would recommend a hire car as you get to see a lot more and saves on airport transfers waiting around. I would definitely go back again.

We spent a week there with my 7 months pregnant partner, which was interesting to start with.The Hotel was great, only downside is its location as the transport from the airport took nearly 3 hours because it was the last drop off of the 18 hotels in the route,which was more then then the flight from London.. Food from Ok to good, plenty of fruits to eat if you go all inclusive, which i would recommend. The restaurant is facing the seaside which makes every meal a great pleasure.The beach was really nice, there was a rocky part nearby where you could see some fish if you are into snorkelling. We did not book a seaside room to save that extra money for excursions but we wish we had, as our room on the second floor was right above the little stage. Every night the singing and dancing had gone on till 11 - half 11 p.m., which was very annoying as we could not sleep, or even watch TV. The main clientele is german, which i did not mind, nice to talk without anyone understanding you. We are Hungarians by the way.. Definitely worth to see the beautiful Caves called Drach. It has the largest lake underground in Europe which is breathtaking. They give a classical concert like every 2 hours or so, on 3 slowly moving boat with changing background and underwater lights behind them. Truly unforgettable. The guide on the excursion was very professional and friendly, she was from Mallorca, never run out of an interesting story about it :). I would highly recommend the tour to anyone.

Fin barnpool! Bäst av allt + god och varierad mat. Kommer att sakna poolen.

A nice, friendly hotel with great staff. Decent sized pool that never got overcrowded. Good location. Would be happy to stay there again. There weren't many children staying at the hotel which was a plus point for us.

The situation is the best of the Bay. The hotel is a 3 stars, no luxury, but good food, confortable rooms, beach on your doorstep, swimming pool and gardens very well kept. Service, location and prices 10/10

We must say that the hotel staff were among the best we have ever had. If you made a request it was taken care of with a smile and they took care to fill the request with a bit more than you exspected. The breakfast was very good and as much as you wanted to eat. Tea time menu was very good most days and it's all you can eat from soup to sweets. Side trips were arranged by the hotel reception with good advice and tips. Drinks are very reasonably priced.
