Sa Coma Platja Aparthotel

PLEASE DO NOT GO TO THIS RESORT OR HOTEL!!!!!!
Why ???????????
Because we want to keep it all to ourselves.
This resort and hotel are just the "Best By Far".
Great value for money, Great location, Great staff (both hotel staff and the Cosmos reps, Oh and not forgetting Bart and Sam the entertainers).
We have just returned (yesterday) from the most fantastic two weeks at the resort and were so impressed with the whole package.
Having read some really horrendous reports on other holiday report sites we were not looking forward to coming here at all, after spending our holiday there I guess that some British holiday makers just are not happy unless moaning and complaining.
The hotel location is fantastic for the most perfect beach you could ever hope to find, and all rooms have sea views which are spectacular.
Hotel staff are first class from the reception staff to the bar staff and the maids, everyone was so friendly and helpful.
The place is kept immaculate it seems that no matter what time of the day or night you passed through reception there was a cleaner or two busy at work.
Likewise the rooms are kept to the same high standard numerous times a week, they are fully air conditioned and it was needed as we had about 33 - 35c just about every day with virtually unbroken sunshine.
The hotel pool is great very clean and plenty of chairs around, oh and yes the staff (reps) do remove towels if the selfish souls who ignore the polite notices and reserve beds from the crack of dawn only to not use them until it suited them 10 out of 10 to the staff and reps for enforcing this.
All the negative things that we read before coming out to the Sa Coma Platja really did spoil the anticipation of the holiday but once here all that we were dreading was proven to be totally and utterly non existent.
The local shops and restaurants are all very good with again friendly staff (the supermarket on the corner has a great in store bakery), and the cost of eating nice meals out is cheaper that the UK.
Final few points some reports give the impression that the "Britannia Bar" opposite the hotel is some sort of rave bar from hell (Ibiza), this is so far from the truth, yes it has music until about midnight but it is only popular chart pop music with families enjoying meals and a bit of entertainment, it stops shortly after midnight and was certainly not a problem to us.
Yes the local lads gather in the car park at the side of the hotel with cars and scooters late at night but so what, this is their home town and have a right to be there, at least they are not like the yobs back in our UK towns and cities, never heard any glass been broken or shouting and swearing and litter been thrown around!!!!!! Enough said, hope you get the point now.
And the refuse wagon does come about 1am each night but maybe this is why the resort is so clean (just watch the road sweepers in action from your balcony about 8am each morning, and wonder if our local council employees would ever be so keen).
So all in all we will be back next year I hope nothing changes here in Sa Coma it is a real "gem" that is probably why if those of you that complained and moaned never noticed how many Spanish families were on Holiday here and that must speak for itself.
Thank you all Sa Coma Platja Staff, Cosmos Reps, and Bart and Sam, "Keep Doing What You Are Doing"

Excellent family accommodation. Throughout the hotel everywhere was spotless. ALL Hotel staff very helpful and friendly - (Reception desk, bar staff, cleaners, maintenance).
Beautiful sea views, lovely evening walks along the front.
Entertainment/games run by BART and SAM were BRILLIANT - their enthusiasm for what they do is contagious! Both are extremely polite, lively, fun and professional at the same time - always considering safety and welfare of participants.
I really can't praise them enough - they are the ones who deserve the Medals!!
Our children (aged 6 and 11) had a ball.
The only reason I've gone for a 9 instead of a 10 rating is the Britannia bar over the road. It's noise is with you until midnight or just after - and I know it's the only venue of its kind and that other resorts are much more rowdy - but when you're expecting a quiet family resort it's a bit of a shock on your first night to feel like there's a karaoke going on in your bedroom!!
If you allow for this and just accept early nights aren't going to be a part of your holiday it's fine.
If you want haute cuisine on tap, this is the wrong resort for you. You have to look very hard to find anything other than egg & chips, burgers, curry & rice etc. But it can be found!
From my experience having a couple of minor down-sides to a holiday is a pretty good success rate - and the ones I had wouldn't stop me from going here again.
Last but not least - a Huge vote of thanks goes to the Cosmos Rep's - the Kid's club was very well run, and all Rep's were helpful and friendly.

Having read other reviews of this resort before I went I was slightly worried about what it would be like, but I was pleasantly surprised.
The apartment was top notch and the pool was great. The prices at the poolside bar were rather steep but there was a supermarket across the road and a hypermarket a few minutes walk that had a lot of food and drink that were cheap. In Sa Coma there were a lot of restaurants that were very good value for money (I highly recommend The Royal Oak near the duty free shop).
There was some noise from the hotel entertainment, which I might add was very good and there was plenty of it, for both kids and adults, but it wasn’t too bad and finished around half twelve when the entertainment had ended.
The only problem with my holiday is that it came to an end. So all in all I would highly recommend Sa Coma Platja as a great resort and I think I will return in the future.

Just returned from Sa Coma and the Sa Coma Platja, we all had a great time.
The pool was excellent my kids wanted to play in it all day. Life guard on duty all day plus the reps took the towels off the sunbeds if they were not being used.
The rooms were clean and tidy and the view from the balcony was fantastic.
The reps were always about and were keen to help.
The resort was great ,lots of bars, shops and things to see and do. The beach was very good ,clean and you could wade out a long way before it was too deep.
Went to the pirate show it was awesome well worth the money. Animals at zoo not too well looked after, very small cages for tigers etc, animals made to stand out in the open so people can get a good view. All sleeping areas locked so they had to stand outside ,over 90 the day we were there.
Went to the Britannia bar, great music ,cheap drink and meals, just brill.
Would recommend to anyone, perfect holiday.

Excuse me but I must have been at the wrong place!!!!
I can’t fault the apartments as they were tidy and always clean, the pool was excellent for the kids, The Staff were excellent as well but not a lot can be said for the COSMOS REP'S !!! When we arrived at Palma airport at 10:30pm we eventually found our rep outside in the coach park. once on the bus he informed us the coach driver would show us to our apartments and the rep left.
The welcome meeting the next day was poor and the reps pushy to book excursions. The entertainment was poor except for 2 nights when there was a singer and a cowboy act. The rest of the entertainment was bingo for 4 hours a night or a music quiz, which was in German!!!!
Yes, the Britannia bar is opposite the apartments and it is an excellent night out for all the family with decent entertainment including the Karaoke. There is noise from scooters most of the night but that is easy to put up with if your tired cause you will sleep any way. For other entertainment there is the Music bar around the corner where there a game of bingo and a decent quiz with an excellent happy hour from 9:30pm till 11 where it’s 2 for 1 on most drinks.
My 7 year old son cut his head on the side of the pool and the lifeguard was excellent and so was the receptionist in the apartments. The Doctor was there within 10 minutes and we were sent to the medical centre where he received four stitches. The Doc came back 2 days later to check on him and we were more than satisfied with everything except that a Cosmos Rep never looked near us at all to see if he was ok.
All in all we had a good time as there is plenty in the area to do but was very disappointed with Cosmos and DEFINATELY WOULDNT use COSMOS again.

Well what can I say?
I have just returned from the Sa Coma Platja and would just like to make my comments known to any poor people who have booked their holiday and then read all the rubbish on this website! As our holiday was one of the best of our lives!
Firstly... noise? Yes there is the infamous Britannia bar over the road to the hotel, however, the doors are always closed at midnight. This being one of the few bars Sa Coma has, most people tend to frequent it as it has excellent family entertainment.
Secondly the hotel itself- well actually it is all self catering however has all the facilities of a hotel. The staff in the hotel are great, all spoke English and were happy to have a good chat with all the guests. The reps in the hotel were amazing! I don’t know how any one can say they don’t see much of them they were there every day without fail with big smiles, infact even when not on duty they were around and always ready for a chat!
And lastly if there is one thing that we think cosmos do well its the trips out, we went to the Pirates show and the Western water park with the reps and I can honestly say these trips along with the service of reps really made our holiday! They even entertained us on both coaches so made our journey go lots quicker.
We have two children and they fell in love with Sian the sheep and crazy Carlos!- the kids reps. they really helped us out when we wanted some time to ourselves.
With the location of the hotel (right on the beach), the beautiful resort, and the fact that there are no rowdy kids hanging around the resort, you cannot fail to have a great holiday and if you don’t then I feel sorry for you.
Thanks Angie, Stacie and Kerri for a great holiday!
we’ll be back!

We stayed in the Sa Coma Platja for only 1 week and there was a party of 17 of us there and all 17 of use thought it was brilliant! The entertainment staff particularly Bart was excellent even out side the resort they were brilliant!!! We did not want to leave and were up set to leave! And we would like to give extra special thanks to Bart and Sam for making our holiday extra special!

I am a single dad and have just returned from a weeks holiday with my two teenage girls at Sa Coma Platja.
I hadn’t read the reviews until after booking so had some reservations about the noise that others had written about. Sure enough.. the Britannia bar across the road can sure pump out Kilowatts of sound until the early hours.
To be honest though, we did get used to it after a couple of days and it does help to retire late or have plenty of alcohol to aid sleep.
The hotel/apartments are clean and the staff friendly. The hotel has a good position next to the beach and offers great views for most of the apartments. I couldn’t fault our accommodation.
The pool is excellent and for the most part manned by a supervisor. One point to note. which was refreshing.. on one occasion I saw staff removing towels from sun beds in the morning that had obviously been reserved in the early hours.
You do need to get down to the pool early say 9:00 to ensure you get a good sun bed and parasol. Not so easy for young families I guess.
This is definitely a family based resort and really it’s a shame about the late night noise for those with youngsters. Having said that, most people really enjoyed the place and there was quite a lot of camaraderie developed around the pool and on entertainment nights.
Entertainment to my mind was poor compared to other resorts. I do take my hat off to Bart and Sam, the entertainers, (mainly for kids) who worked really hard and did an excellent job but I felt there could have been more outside entertainers used. My two girls loved it though so I shouldn’t complain.
All in all.. a great holiday but maybe I was more tolerant of noise than I have been in the past! :-)

I would just like to say that I have read the reviews on this site and I feel that British mentally and people are so narrow minded and all they do is MOAN!!!
I have just come back from my holiday in the Sa Coma Platja and I must say that I really loved it. We are a family of 3 holiday, the apartments are great and have air con and the maids changed our towels and sheets 4 times a week..
The staff are fab and are really friendly and helpful, yes the transfer did take over an hour but when we booked the excursions it was a direct coach to all the venues and they are all value for money especially Pirates and Western Water Park.
I would just like to say a big thank you to the Cosmos reps Angie, Stacie, Kerri and the kids club reps they did a great job and are a credit to the Company. Not all reps are as they are portrayed on the TV.
My advice to everyone is to stop moaning and enjoy your holiday!!!

I really have no idea what the bad reviews are about. The accommodation was great and the view from our room on the top floor was absolutely beautiful, I’ve never seen a sea more blue than that in my life and we were told that every room had a sea view so everyone had the pleasure of waking up to the same breath-taking view as us!
I have to admit I was very worried about this holiday, after reading the bad reviews about the hotel, I was scared, as one person said that it was like a Butlins abroad (and it probably sounds snobby but Butlins isn’t anywhere near my idea of a good holiday) this isn’t the case in the slightest. I loved every minute of the holiday!
The reps were excellent and were always on hand to help with any queries we had. The apartments were lovely and had everything you’d expect to see in an Aparthotel apartment, they were extremely clean and the facilities in the kitchenette were good, nothing too outstanding, but it’s not as if I was about to cook a roast dinner.
I was slightly worried about the complaints of noise from Britannia bar but it was nothing too over the top and I didn’t have any trouble getting to sleep as some people said they did. The resort was great and had wonderful bars and restaurants nearby.
All-in-all I have no complaints about this holiday, in fact I have to say that it was probably the best holiday I’ve been on; the apartments were great, the view was beautiful, the resort was lovely and as far as we were concerned the reps were the best we’d ever had the pleasure of meeting! FANTASTIC!!!!
