Hotels Near Puig d＇en Farineta in Serra De Tramuntana

Hit and miss I will find this review quite difficult to write as the Cupido has many good points, but, unfortunately for us, I think the negative aspects just about outweighed the positives. The main asset the hotel has is its staff who are hardworking and happy in their roles and constantly engage in a cheerful manner with guests throughout the day... they really are fantastic and a credit to the company. There are little touches that are very pleasing such as for the first welcome drink they don’t just offer you a watered down orange juice or 1/2 inch glass of wine but more or less anything you want from the bar (obviously within reason) such as tea, coffee, glass of wine or full pint of beer... good start! When by the pool or roof terrace the lovely staff will come round and offer you free slices of cold water melon to cool you off a bit... all thoughtful gestures. The rooms appear to be very hit or miss, we started with a definite 'miss' initially with a tiny dark room (no balcony) tucked in the corner of the building with a very small single window looking out onto the blocked out side of someone’s balcony about 3ft. away (see photos) - the bigger window to the right wasn’t ours. Admittedly we booked a room without balcony as we had no choice when booking with Jet2, however, Jet2 don’t appear to charge extra for a balcony room anyway - it was just that they had none left - so this shouldn’t really have affected what room we were allocated. But this is where the lovely staff come into play again, between the manageress Carlota and the lovely receptionist Paula, after 2 nights they managed to swop our room to one that still had no balcony but was bigger, brighter, floor to ceiling window with superb sea view... what a difference! We were 2 weeks half board so you would have thought they’d have put someone that was only staying a few days on B&B in the first room to save us the embarrassment of having to ask to move. We would have been really miserable in that dark room for the whole fortnight. We were half board and are by no means fussy eaters but we thought the evening meal choice very limited even for a small hotel. There was literally one meat, one fish, one pasta and one grill station choice - none of which were very appealing. There isn’t even the choice of something like pizza which is usually on every hotels menu. These were accompanied by a choice of one vegetable and one style of potato. Even my partner who will hoover up anything didn’t enjoy any of the evening meals. But to counteract that the breakfast was okay and the morning machine coffee was the best I’ve had in a long time. As I say hit and miss. The communal areas of the hotel are lovely and everywhere is spotless but, as others have stated, it is in a rather noisy area (even in low season) with street bar music finishing after 2am., people shouting in the street in the early hours and the glass and bin wagons making an awful racket around 6am. which isn’t very condu

This is our third visit to Son Caliu - every one has been wonderful. Facilities are excellent, staff are attentive and the food is wonderful. We make use of the spa on each visit and have experienced nearly all of the massage/reflexology treatments that are on offer - they are superb and the spa staff can not be faulted. On our last two visits we have opted for the superior Rooms with balcony and sea views (see picture) and access to the portals lounge - just perfect. There was just one thing that slightly spoiled our stay - the people in the next room smoked heavily on the balcony - it made it uncomfortable for us to use our balcony and at times were were unable to leave our door onto the balcony open because of the strong odour. That being said we will be booking a return visit

I felt so good that I extended my stay... Everything was beautiful, from the view to the swimming pool to the gym and what about the spa and restaurant... Fantastic on the 9th floor!

Just back from a 2 week stay at this hotel. We had a great time and would return. We stayed in a loft junior suite which was very spacious and modern it could have done with a few more drawers but we managed. Each day you get 2 beers, 2 waters and 2 juices free of charge. Pool Area: The pool opened at 10:00 which was great nobody putting towels on sunbeds at stupid o’clock, you never struggle to get a bed anytime of the day. You even have a DJ playing music from 13:00 until later in the afternoon and music playing in the morning. Pool towels are provided as well. Breakfast is served from 08:00-11:00 there is plenty of choice most seating is inside but there are a few tables outdoors. The lifts are not the best we were staying in building 2 which you can’t get to the pool from so you have to go down to the ground and then over to the other building, also the buttons are not that responsive. The hotel is very central and not far from restaurants and bars it is also very close to the buses to Palma (104) and Santa Ponsa (123).

The location of the hotel is very good, the scenery is beautiful, the facilities are simple and economical. 🚗 Traffic: Easy parking and suitable for self-driving.

Hotel was in a fantastic location to enjoy surrounding coves, beaches and restaurants. Staff were very polite and helpful with all our requests. The room had great views over the pool and sea and I enjoyed very much being able to swim off the rocks from the hotel. Would stay here again.

The rooms and general hotel surroundings were very clean, tidy, and heart-warming! Several members of my family and myself booked several rooms in preparation for my wedding day last 15 March. The whole experience was made more special by the very warm and friendly staff who greeted and congratulated us on my big day. I certainly recommend this hotel to everyone visiting Soller and the nearby towns in Palma. It made my special day more enjoyable!
