Our stay at Prinsotel La Pineda in Cala Ratjada was far from what we expected, and we're deeply disappointed with the overall experience. Upon arrival, our room was in a terrible state. We found sand and dirt in the shower, a previous guest's dirty socks under the bed, human feces stains in the toilet and even a dried nasal mucus on the sheets. This was not what we expected, especially at check-in. To make matters worse, the toilet had difficulty flushing, and we had to wait several minutes between flushes, which was incredibly inconvenient. One day, it rained for just a few hours, and the unpleasant smell in our room and bathroom lingered for more than five hours after. I can only imagine how bad it would have been if it had rained more. The noise from the activities around the communal areas was another major issue. Every evening, the noise went on until well past midnight, making it impossible to get any rest before then. Additionally, all the entertainment and activities were in German, which was not mentioned anywhere in the booking process, leaving us unable to enjoy much of what was offered. The room we received was not what we booked. We were downgraded to a room with an outdated bathroom and a terrace overlooking a back alley that reeked of old garbage. This was not the relaxing view we were hoping for. The Wi-Fi was also terrible, with no reliable connection either at the pool or in our room, so we eventually gave up trying to use it. Furthermore, the rules about reserving pool loungers were not enforced, and we often couldn't find a spot because people had left their towels out to reserve them. Overall, we feel completely let down by this experience and definitely did not get what we paid for. We would strongly advise anyone against booking this hotel unless you're into noise until midnight, dirty rooms, and poor service.
