Portomar Apartments

Katastrophales Personal. Allgemeine Unhöflichkeit des mittleren Managements. Vor allem eine gewisse Joan und eine gewisse Jessica. Sie können nicht einmal Anrufe oder WhatsApp beantworten. Und dann legen sie großen Wert auf die Meinungen von TripAdvisor. Nun, da ist es...

We are a family group consisting of two young couples with one toddler and one 4 month old baby and the kid's grandma. We stayed in the three bedroom apartment which was exactly what we were looking for. It was beautifully presented and has the best views in the whole apart hotel looking over the cove with a massive private balcony. The apartment has a very big footprint too giving us plenty of space to spread out. The kitchen is super useful for doing bottles as it has a microwave and kettle, as well as a washing machine and dryer which we weren't expecting but we're super useful to have. The kitchen could do with more utensils and trays but you could cook basic meals there. There is also a dishwasher. The configuration of the three bed is two bedrooms with ensuites and an additional room with double bed. We didn't mind sharing a bathroom but it did make it a bit awkward throughout the night. The aparthotel in general is lovely and the decor and vibe made our stay very pleasant. The food and breakfast has been of a really high standard and fantastic value for money (including all areas of the hotel with the restaurant out the back and the pool bar). It was very easy to get a sunbed in May and again, they were very comfortable and of a high standard. The pool isnt heated so we couldn't really use it when the weather was poor as it was just too cold, but on the days we had good weather it was pleasant enough. The hotel on a whole is very family friendly without having animation etc. There are a few tourist type shops around that sell basics but we did need to go to the Eroski a few times to stock up. The beach (Cala Marcal) was about a 5/10 min walk away and there is pram accessibility and toilets. The beach has a fantastic cafe/bar with covered seating area. The sand is gorgeous white and the sea incredibly turquoise blue, with lifeguards keeping an eye on things. A stroll to the restaurants in Portocolom was about 10/15 mins and not particularly difficult. The only downside to this hotel is the area. Whilst the location is fantastic (slap bang in the middle of both portocolom and cala Marcal beach), the street scene and general vibe in the area is very grubby (lots of dog poo etc). The owner of Portomar should transform the whole resort locality because his hotel sits like a rose amongst a bed of thorns at the moment! Can't believe we found this gem really and we have had such a good time staying here that we may just return!

Perfect location at the seafront. Super nice staff who is always smiling and asking if there is anything they can do for you. Gym is ok. Sunbeds are comfortable. Rooms are nice and clean. Breakfast is very good at an okay price.

Portomar apartments surprises us in a good way. The gym and spa facilities were great, well kept and just what we needed when the weather was a bit cloudy! The pool area and outside bar was great. Good pool furniture, good sized pool, well stocked bar and restaurant and attentive staff. The views over the bay and see were beautiful, saw both the calm sea and a rough sea and both we say and watched for a long period of time. It was calming! The rooms/apartments were clean, relatively simple and well sized. They’ve decorated the whole place really tastefully. Would recommend as a couples trip or family!
