“ Terrible rip off.

I was browsing through the positive remarks and could not recognize the hotel. Either this poor people never seen a 5 Star hotel or this must be fraud. We booked 8 days red level 7 floor ???3400 paying upfront ???2700. The place is old and filthy. The area it is in looks tacky. When entering the Hotel you recognized a strong smell of cheap room spray and this was everywhere. At the reception desk you could see dust in the corner behind the Monitor. Entering the old and small elevator you could see dirt in the corners and finger taps all over the place. The floors looked refreshed but still not appalling. The room was rather small and funktional but the furniture looked cheap and very used. Again dust all over the place. Using a piece of wet paper swiping the floor - dirty. Bathroom looked ok first, but again brown spots in the toilet and a few black hairs at the sink. The sheets looked clean but carried a terrible chemical smell. The bed looked self manufactured. One movement and the two parts of the bed drifted apart. The mirrors dirty, window dirty, the place was a mess. The overall appearance of the room was old and used. Nice view from the balcony tho... Breakfast area was nicely partitioned, corners and spaces - nice. Breakfast was ok but not 5 star. Some ants running by the fruit. Again and sorry for stressing that matter it was not really tidy. And taking in consideration that a hotel is not able to keep the reception desk clean, you don???t want to see the kitchen. Pool area is done nicely, big sun beds spread out everywhere. Sun and shady areas well mixed. Even a small beach directly adjoining the pool area. Gym is a small box, better than nothing but again filthy. We ordered 2 bottles of still water 0.5 and a single espresso - ???18. We decided not to waste our time with this place. I spoke to the reception desk manager and asked him, if they would refund some of the up front payment if we leave immediately. The answer a clear No. They offered a voucher for a another stay in the Hotel 😂. The Hotel Manager didn???t show up until midday and we been promised a call which never came. So we wrote of ???2700 for 1 night with breakfast and left. Nothing at this place is 5* only the price. This is my first review. I really hope this is helping some one not to fall into the same trap.

This hotel is a heaven for adults longing for a quiet, relaxing holiday close to the sea. Although you can tell that the hotel has come to age, the renovation it has been through has been overall...

“ Theft from room

Piers_11, Newcastle, United Kingdom

Nov 13 2017

My fianc?? and I have stayed at the Melia de Mar, or 'chocolate box', for a number of years and loved the location between Palma and Peurto Portals. I was first taken there was I was around 4 years old and have some very fond family memories of the place. All of that was sadly shattered during our last, and final, stay when a dishonest hotel employee entered our room and helped him/herself to a large sum of Euros and ??20 notes. The hotel, at first co operated and were kind enough to take me to the local police station on one of the hottest days in summer. As you can imagine not quite how I imagined spending my annual summer holiday, particularly when I was paying around 400 Euros per night for the privilege. I sought to persuade the local constabulary that it would be quite straightforward to identify the hotel employee responsible for the theft as I had taken the purse/wallets from which the money had been stolen. The hotel knew exactly who had entered the room as all movements were recorded on the electronic key cards. A simple fingerprint and/or DNA examination would conclusively identify the offender. The police said that they apparently did not have the resources to carry out such examination(s). I asked the hotel to assist with persuading the police to find the resources which it was not keen to do at all. That, you may think, speaks volumes. Following the incident, my fianc?? no longer felt safe and we advised the hotel that we were leaving early and accordingly cutting short the holiday which was meant to be a celebration of our recent engagement. As a 'good will gesture' the hotel did not charge us for the night we did not stay (as a result of the theft!) The matter was eventually escalated to the CEO of Melia and all that was ultimately done was following a rather aggressive call from the manager of the hotel, a short message was sent from Melia's insurers denying liability. What a delightful way to treat loyal customers of more than three decades. My advice if you stay at this hotel is to keep your belongings under lock and key at all times. Your valuable possessions and money are not safe in the room.
