Bizzilady, we stayed at the Prinsotel La Dorada in 2002 and the Viva Blue was next door. It probably wasn't built when you were there. It's more central that the la Dorada but about 150m away. We wen't in and walked around and to be honest it's very similar to the La Dorada. I thought it was very crowded around the pool area for the time of year we were there as opposed to the La Dorada. It was probably just the layout of the pool area but I would rate it identical in style & everything else like the La Dorada.

Have booked this hotel for July 2005 - First Choice.

Can anyone tell me if there is a kettle and toaster in the kitchen? Went to Viva Menorca, in Menorca in 2003, it was fantastic but was let down by the fact that there was no toaster or kettle. As this one is the same hotel chain wondered if it standard not to put these items in kitchen. Any information helpful

I was just looking at the comments regarding this hotel in Playa De Muro -Very Very good!!!!

Anyway someone has made mention that you can leave a deposit and get pool towels for your entire stay. Can anyone else confirm this as it would be very useful not to have to take all those towels yourself.

I`m stuck and I can`t decide.
Should we stop at the Viva Blue or the Viva Bahia

They both have excellent ratings but the Viva Blue seems to be closer to the main stretch of Alcudia (walking distance). I think the Viva Bahia is further towards Can Picafor which we didnt like that much.

Also the Viva Blue is listed in a couple of UK brochures so there should be a few UK guests there for the kids to mix with.

However the Viva Bahia is about £150 cheaper!

What I'm unsure of is if there are enough restaraunts, bars and shops in Playa de Muro itself to last us 11 nights. If not then it would be nice to be able to walk in to Alcudia.

Any help would be gratefully received.
Thank you
