Iberostar Selection Es Trenc

Spent 4 days at Iberostar Selection Es en Trenc, lovely property situated on the water in Col??nia de Sant Jordi. Why did I give it 4 stars and not 5? Let me explain. To me, 5-star luxury anticipates. It is effortless. It is practiced, polished and???most of all???it???s consistent across the board. Luxury sweats the details. Premium and upscale off access to nicer amenities but what they have in niceness they sometimes lack in attention to detail. What I liked about the property: 1. Staff were lovely. Friendly. Fran at the pool was a great guy. 2. Location - right in the water and facing southwest???making for stunning sunsets over the water. 3. Pool had unobstructed sunlight all day. 4. Not a huge resort. About 150 rooms. Made it feel more personal, not small enough to be intimate, but lovely. 5. Very, very few children, and the ones that were there were well-behaved. 6. Guests were lovely. People dressed appropriately for meals, no one was rowdy or staggering around drunk. Felt very dignified. What could have been better. 1. Staff were nice, but I would not say they were consistently attentive. Attentive = luxury. Nice but not attentive = upscale. Attentiveness issues at bar, buffet restaurant and pool (though not Fran. He was very attentive). 2. Limited food options on property. There is a buffet with good, not great food. Sit-down restaurant is reservation only and we could not get in on any of the nights we were there. Booked solid. 3. Rooftop bar was closed the entire time we were there even though there were ads in the elevator encouraging you to go up and visit. 4. The rooms are a bit weird. When booking I had a hard time appreciating the room layouts from the photos. And I think I know why. We booked a panoramic suite. Killer views. Weird thing was the bathroom sink and all storage for clothing were in the living area. The toilet was also off the main living area so if you were having a moment anyone sitting in the sofa is gonna hear it. Shower was in the passageway from the living area to the bedroom. Interestingly, we lucked out because the other ???suites??? are open floor concept with the living and sleeping areas in one room. That???s not a suite in my book. All in all, we loved our stay and would happily return. Understanding the property, what it is and what it is not, I will come back with expectations aligned to experience and I???m sure it will be a wonderful time, again.

Chilled hotel, no towel on the sunbeds here👍🏼Rooftop area has stunning views. Staff are super friendly and the hotel is spotless. Modern. Sink sits outside the bathroom which is a wee bit odd, but you get used to it. Buffet has good selection. The area is much quieter than the north of Majorca - but if you are looking for a majorly relaxing break - book here 😎

Beautiful place to enjoy sea views and sunset. Increadible activities with Agata, aquafit, face yoga, reflexology, cocktail workshops and more will keep you fit and entertained. Special thanks to Fran, Rosa and Alejandro from bars and chef Luis.
