Hotel Palia Maria Eugenia

Me and my boyfriend just came back from staying for 5 nights and overall everything about this experience was positive. All staff were so lovely and accommodating, and rooms were immaculate. The entertainment consisted of karaoke nights/ white parties etc, the staff were really friendly and got everyone involved. They did mini games in the day and then had different entertainment in the evening, so there was always something to do. One thing I would say is if you wanted a table to watch the entertainment you should get there an hour before because the tables did get taken up quite quickly. There was one main pool and then 2 adult only pools which were never too crowded and there are always sun loungers available. We updated to premium which meant there was a section with more pools, beds, and another bar which overlooked the sea. We 100% thought that upgrading was worth it because in the premium areas it was less busy and can be more relaxing. The overall area was good, if you walked down there are some shops, markets and plenty of places to eat. We did have to go out for dinner a few times because the food was the one thing we would say was not great. There wasn’t much selection and the food itself was a bit bland and overall not nice. However, they did plenty of snacks for example crepes/ pastries/ burgers in the day so you never went hungry. We would 100% recommend this hotel, we wish we booked longer.

Nice hotel with friendly staff in a great location. With gorgeous views and a short distance to a fantastic beach, it is incredible. The variety of tasty food for every taste, age and preference. Everyone can choose something nice for him. The animation group worked so hard to entertain everybody and they were really great. Lots of different sports and mind games, challenges and aqua gym for every age during the whole day and also evening performances. Thanks a lot for your work. Thanks a lot for the first great experience in Majorca. Hope to come back there next year.

Honestly, I was quite torn between giving a 3 or 4-star rating, but I think the 4 stars is fair. It's hard to say anything that 'pops' out, and I have to admit I've been to traditionally 'nicer' 4-star hotels, but for the price I'd say it's worth the money. Rooms are nice and are cleaned very well every day as well as towels changed, I'm not sure what the higher class / more expensive rooms look like but one thing i do know is that the advertised 'private' pool area you get with the purchase is nothing to get excited about, it looks the same as the other 3 pool areas, so I wouldn't bother personally because, as mentioned, the standard room was quite nice anyway; as for every other area of the hotel, the same cleanliness standard was kept. Edit: forgot to mention the air-conditioning, it didn't do anything to cool the room down, so we used both the ceiling fan / keeping the balcony door open at night, I think you'd struggle with the heat in the height of summer with this to be honest. Pool areas are nice and spacious, loungers are aplenty and comfortable, and the loungers are accessible at all hours even after the pool closes, which I like. Staff are friendly, always have smiles on their faces and were helpful when needed. The food itself was good, but for me, there just wasn't enough on offer. 3 stations of the hot 'main' food, 2 of which had the exact same on; other hotels I've been to will offer way more food, but like I said, the food itself was good and time slots for eating were also appropriate. Location is good, large beach just a short walk away, shop right across the road, hotel parking €6 per night, but we only had to use it once as there was a free car park right across the road, as well as other parking down the road for anyone who hires a car. I have stopped in a hotel nearby previously and can say that the local area is great for night time, bars and restaurants are abundant. A big part of our trip was to go climbing (roped & deep water solo), so for anyone with similar interests there are some good spots a short drive away, I can't imagine getting the bus is much harder. I think it's worth mentioning that if you like a good night's sleep, stopping in a room at the front of the hotel might not be for you and it could be worth spending that bit extra for the sea view at the back as it got quite loud in the evenings with various 'open-late' bars out front, and our visit wasn't even during peak summer, so can only imagine it gets worse. The only real thing that let's the hotel down for me was the entertainment, which is pretty much non-existent. I'm not really a fan of when the 'entertainment' is just the hotel staff doing different things (singing / dancing), yes it gets the guests involved but I don't really consider it entertainment to be honest. Overall, I'd still say it's worth the money spent and is worth a visit.

Wonderful location for sun, sand and sunbaving, lots of souvenir places, resturants, night life, buffet is average but not good if you're vegan. Bed is awful even in premium rooms they have two single beds put together and pillows are awful. My friends got put in a disabled premium room, so there was no sofa area, disabled bathrooms make the bedroom space smaller. Didn't get changed for two days even though people were checking into other premium rooms. They seem to think that putting people in a room they didn't ask for is fine, not acceptable.

ROOM- when we first arrived at the hotel the handle on the door was broken the staff from reception said they would call maintenance in the morning. Once in our room on the first floor all we could hear was a ventilation noise and the nightclub across the road from the hotel. This made for a night with no sleep. In the morning i went to reception and they explained that they could not change us room as they had no availability. After coming and going with them for a while we got offered a new room on the second floor this room was the same side as our room previously however further along so we were hopeful we would sleep. Room was lovely and spacious and a nice bathroom and shower. Room walls are very thin and can always hear your neighbours and you hear everything! We were also able to smell next door smoking their cigarettes through the joining door of the rooms. Air con is not great at keeping room cool, this was okay for us as was still in May. Hotel in General- Hotel is spotless and very clean, staff and very friendly and welcoming and always try their best. The entertainment staff are lovely and entertainment was good every night. Food- There is a snack bar throughout the day offering sweet and salty snacks at different times. The buffet has limited choice and has different stations with the same food. My boyfriend was also served raw chicken. The food is also repetitive. Breakfast was by far the best meal of the day. All other comments- The hotel has great amenities outside from shops, tourist shops, mini golf and bars etc. There are two main bus routes to Cala d’Or and Porto Cristo. You can get these buses a 5 min walk from hotel and the busses run every hour. Overall it was a good week however the negatives outweighed the positives and as we still never had a great sleep in our room as we were woken up with the nightclub every night and this was with ear plugs in. We would not return to the hotel.
