Hotel Playa Santa Ponsa Santa Ponsa

A short guide to Santa Ponsa

Very popular with British families, Santa Ponsa, on the southwest coast of the island, is a purpose-built resort set on a bay of fine white sand and shallow warm water. Quieter at night than its neighbouring resorts, Magaluf and Palma Nova (both approximately five kilometres east), Santa Ponsa is still close enough to enjoy their family attractions by day.

Hi There, We stayed in the hotel playa santa ponsa in the first week of July 2009. Upon arrival at the airport we were going to get a bus to santa ponsa but its not very well signed and we dont speak spanish so we had to jump a taxi which cost €37. upon arrival of the hotel we found the reception lady was very friendly and helpful. Our room was a very small room and we were not too happy with the tiny balcony but we were not fussy so we did not ask to change rooms(im sure if we had of requested a different room we would have got it without argument). we were on the first floor so that might explain all the cockroaches!!! the hotel staff were amazing.we dont have any children but our first day and night we stayed on the premises and we had an overcast day and the minute the sun went in, all of the kids club reps were out in full force to keep the kids entertained.it was really brilliant for people with young families. i would definately recommend it to either couples or young families or elderly people.its also wheelchair accessable.we were half board and the food was good.different every night and well worth the extra we paid.the only problem for us was the lack of selection of beer!!

Hotel Playa Santa Ponsa 2009.07.27
Recommended Trip type: All Others "Mye bedre enn sine 2 stjerner"

Reviewed by I of Oslo on Jul 27, 2009

Reiste alene for 4 døgn, og hotellet svarte til alle mine forventninger. Hotellet hadde et utrolig serviceinnstilt personale, og kjempegod mat - både frokost, lunsj og middag. Kort vei gjennom den vakre parken til en nydelig strand. Jeg var alene, så det var helt ok for meg at rommet og badet var lite. Det var skinnende rent, og så var det en meget god, bred seng. Ønsker å reise dit igjen sammen med barn og barnebarn.

Ett fint hotell, rent och fräscht, trevligt rum med balkong. Stor pool och barnpool, fint område kring poolen med solstolar på gräsmatta, tennis plan etc. Fin matsal med en otrolig frukost! Trevligt bemötande.
