Hello Everyone

I have booked a week 7th August, do any of you guys have sons who are about 14 yrs old as my lad is worried there will be nobody his age !!! I assured him there would be and hope I am right.

Cheers

Dave.

Hi Dave

We'll just miss you which is a shame as in our party there'll be two 14yr old boys and one girl!! Although I've not been before we're going with friends who have and they say there's loads for teenagers to do so I'm sure he'll be fine.

Hi Dave,

Sorry but my two are only 5 and 2 but hes welcome to babysit if he wants lol

I would say he'll have no probs finding others his age

Hope you have a great time.

i stayed at this hotel last aug/sep was fantastic couldnt fault a thing even location as taxis are so cheap i upgraded to self catering plus when we got there think it worked out at 25 euros per day for 2 adults and 2 kids well worth it as we probly done that on water every day instead of bying from supermarket we just stocked up from bar

Hi,

could anyone tell me if there is a cash machine in this accomodation.

Thanks

Hello

Can someone please give me information on these apts - i.e. are they any good - is there anything around them - is there a beach near (i hear there is a pebble beach is it nice). Is there a sumpermarket near. How much can I expect to pay for a pint of local at these apartments. There is 3 of us hoping to travel 2adults & one clild aged 4. Should I book these or look else where.

If I remember rightly they are quite away from PP. The beach near them is more like a strip of rubble/sand. Great for windsurfing there though. If you want to be near PP for nights out I would suggest looking nearer. We stayed at Duva aparthotel last year. - very good about 15 minute walk from centre

We have booked these apartments for August mostly because out of all the reviews I read about them ( and there was a lot ) there was about 1 bad one.

They are apparently 15-20 mins walk from PP however a bus runs to PP and Alcudia from outside of them every 15 mins.

Not sure about price of drinks probably about 3 euro odd for a pint but we're thinking of going self catering plus whoch for a supplement you can have unlimited local drinks,crisps and icecream from 9am - 12 am.

They look fantastic to me ,very very clean so providing you don't mind the distance I would deffo book them,our kids (5 & 2) can't wait for the kids club etc

Hi

I'm going to these apartments in August too and have heard so many good things about them. Best of all my best friend and several members of her family stayed there in 2005 and loved it so much that they're going back in August too!! So look out for a large group of us (23 and counting)! She says there's load for all ages on site and PP is a short distance away. I don't think I've read any negative reviews to be honest.

i agree this is a beautiful hotel a bit off beaten track but buses r freaquent about 5eu to pp and about 8 to alcudia first choice reps were fantastic had 2 children who they treated so well (5 1) as kids were so young we didnt need to go elsewhere also sc plus we upgraded to that and is exelent value worked out 2 be about 25eu a day for 4 of us and we drank that in water just keep going rto bar and stocking up fridge

look out for nacho bhind the bar great fun would go back again

ps went last aug 06

im also looking at booking these apartments for beginning of august 2 ad 2 ch 12 +9....first time to majorca for about 15 years! a few questions need answering if you dont mind..
what is the transfer time from airport, can you upgrade to self catering plus in resort as only seem able to get a price for s/c or h/b on website, is there anything around the complex or will we need to go into town, what are the prices like in majorca compared to uk, is the aircon good at hotel and how easy will it be to get sunbed with umbrella around the pool....must have shade

if anyone can help with questions would appreciate it....

Hello Again,

I have booked a studio (2adults & 1child age 4) - are the studios big will we have plenty of room ???

I see people talking about self catering PLUS -what is this - I was not given this choice - can you book it whan you to the apartment if so how much.

Hello

Another Question - Is there an ATM machine at these apartments ??

How far away is main supermarket ???

Don't forget my previous questions.

Thanks

Hello Gal

The SC Plus is certainly available with First Choice but not sure about other agents.

It involves paying a supplement (I think it was about £75 per adult for 2 weeks, but not sure), and you can then get all drinks included, and for children soft drinks, crisps and ice creams.

Hope this helps.

Juliet

Well I gave you all I know. As I haven't actually been there myself the rest would be heresay, but as I said before I've only heard good stuff. Not sure about ATMs or supermarkets. Sorry not much help.

Help !!!!

Going in a couple of weeks.

Can anyone who has done self catering plus let me know what is included for children (brochure says soft drinks, ice-cream and crisps) is that it ?

For adults it only mentions locally produced alcohol and soft drinks, does it include coffee or any snack stuff at all ?

Any help appreciatd.

Thanks

Dave

Hello, this is my first post on this site.

I've been searching for where we can go on Holiday this year, and have been impressed by the reviews both on here and other websites of Club Del Sol Appartments, in Puerto Pollensa. We are a family of 2 Adults, and a little girl (3 but almost 4 by then).

I love the idea of the Self Catering Plus where you get your drinks included as we like to go out to get meals and explore a bit too, so would be great to have that for when we get back to the appartments or are lounging about all day. Our little girl would love it too cause it means unlimited Crisps and Drinks for her (although I would have to be a bit strict on the Crisps cause thats all she would eat if we let her).

I have already booked the time off, so were thinking about 15th September (Saturday) for 2 weeks.

The Dilema I have is when we went to Menorca last year, we booked a bit in advance and got a good deal but some of the other people there were telling us of the deals they got by booking the week before which would have saved us quite a bit of money. I have priced it up online through Eclipse Direct (First Choice but a little cheaper) and its reasonable (dont know if its against the rules to list prices on here so I wont) but thats for a Studio appartment, and it would be nice to get a One Bedroom but for around the same price or cheaper (always wanting a bargain). Anyway, is it worth taking the risk and booking the week before either online, or through First Choice or could it work out more expensive. My thinking is becuase its towards the end of the season demand may be lower so could be good for a deal.

Anyway, sorry about the long first post. Great site with fantastic reviews of all the places (have spent a lot of time reading the reviews of the past week or so).

Hi Dave and welcome to HT I can't really help I'm afraid. However, I do wonder if a lot of folks may end up booking late holidays this year if the weather continues as it does.
However, I'll leave it to the Majorca experts to answer

Thanks for the reply. I am wondering now if its a good idea to wait, or just book it, as it seems the ideal place for us to go this year.

I did see today that if we dont fly on Saturday 15th from Manchester, but go on Tuesday 18th from Liverpool we can save over £100. Ive already booked the two weeks off (last day 14th), but work is complex at the minute with me transferring to another company due to transfer of the contract I work on, which may be happening the weekend of the 15th. This means I would miss the first 2 weeks at the new company if I leave holidays as is, but if I change them I may have to go there for 1 day and then be off for just over two weeks for the holiday. Anyway, its complex

Oh, decisions, decisions
