Hotel Samoa

my partner booked this hotel as a birthday present and not to his fault its the worse present ive ever had,the holiday it self was ok food was edable,pool was nice and drinks flowed,but the room was spooky we were right down in the basement across from a main road with two children aged 9 and 7,beach was close by,all went well till last day we booked in to play tennis while the children were in kids club,u have to leave a deposit and 10euros that was fine untill we went bk to our room and noticed that are suit cases was forced open all my money camera mobile phone perfume shampoo etc was stolen and it was all my stuff,my partners was in the safe by reception u were only allowed one safe deposit box per family and were very very slim so i put mine in my suit case with 2 locks on,reception didnt want to know there was no forced entry we went on a hrs drive to the police station they did nothing then when we got bk we were told 5 other people were robbed too, we had no sympathy from the staff at all not even a sorry,i cant stop thinking that if we didnt go to play tennis it wldnt of happened because we had to put a deposit down with are room number so the cleaners who has keys knew the day before we booked in and thats the only day i left my belongings in the room locked up,we had insurance but because there was no forced entry we had no pay out. if yr booked into that hotel please dont go and book golf or tennis and dont stay down in the basement rooms.....

we stayed at the samoa in summer 2008,whilst some people were non stop complaining about the place i could not understand why?????the place was clean the food was very nice,entertainment was fantastic for children and everything was close by,shops,bars,market,restuarants etc...we had the best holiday ever and we are looking to go back again this year,beach close by and very child friendly,staff were great,no complaints from us we absolutly loved the place!!!!!!!!!

just returned after a short 3 day break from the samoa. i would recommend this hotel and we hope to return next year. it will only be for a 3 day break as there not enough to do in the resort for a full week. the hotel was very clean, the staff were really friendly and the food was very good considering my husband and i are very fussy eaters. it was a cheap break so i didnt expect the Ritz but it worth every penny i paid.

We have just returned from a weeks all inclusive holiday at the Samoa in Calas de Mallorca and were really disappointed, our bedroom was badly in need of decorating and furniture needed replacing, the bathroom was disgusting, stained bath, floor covering stained, tiles dirty, the dining room, food was always the same and not even warm, tables were not cleared and laid up again, we did this ourselves several times, food on the floor from the night before, no food left if we went in after the first hour, the staff didn't want to know, only two lifts and these were always full, overall we would not recommend this hotel and certainly would not come again.

im writing this review on the hotel samoa after my stay in october, 4 adults, various ages. when i booke dthis hotel, i had read several reviews, some good and some bad but after xl went bust and i lost my other holiday, i wasnt bothered and thought least it would be a week away. i wasnt expected alot as its a 3 star hotel.
on arrival, the hotel was alot bigger than expected with a large clean reception area and was quickly booked in and given the keys to the room, it was on the 7th floor but had 2 lifts so i wasnt bothered, the room was clean and had a view over the centre and of the sea at the front of the hotel. the room was of a good size with alot of hanging space and draws to put everything in. 2 chairs and a table on the balacony. the bathroom had toliet, bday and a full sized bath with shower over.
the hotel is well thought out, where ever there are steps there is also a ramp or sloping walk way so ideal for people with walking problems or wheel chairs. the main restaraunt has lots of tables and was used for the breakfast, lunch and dinner. there was always a good choice of food every day. they catered for more english whilst i was there, even having cumberland sausage and bacon daily. sometimes of the food was not hot but i put this down to the fact that i would get breakfast and then go and get toast so the food would be getting cold. on the whole there was no problem with eating the food and im a very fussy eater. all the people that complained about the food in previous reviews must have nothing better to do. i stayed in 5 star hotels with worse food than this hotel had. the snack bar, had a good choice each day, hotdogs, burgers, fish, pasta, salad, fries ect. some days i would eat dinne rthere rather the main restaraunt.
the hotel is kept very clean, the staff work so hard clearing up all the time. the drinks are served in plastic glasses, this was no problem tho. the drinks were estrella, (spanish lager)martina, various snaps, vodka, gin, whisky, brandy, rum, bacardi, wine, tia maria, malibu ect also softs drinks, fruit choice, slush puppy and hot drinks you helped yourself to from the vending machines. this was served from 10am till 12pm, ofter going over this time. the staff were very polite and always helpful and you never waited long to get a drink.
the entertainment was also good, the staff work so hard to put on the shows and keep the kids entertained without hassling the adults to join in. the town centre is across the road from the hotel, this is a small resort but had all you needed there. the centre was also quite flat and also not alot of steps to get about it. the beach was a small coves and were nice sandy ones with lots of sunbeds.if you went from the hotel, you could walk down about 20 steps and then 2 mins down the road to the beach, or from the front of the hotel, turn left and its about 5 mins walk. on the whole the stay at this hotel was very enjoyable and i would reconmend this hotel to anyone, whether its somewhere to be with the kids or for the elderly. for young people after the nightlife, its not the bussiest lively resort of magaluff or palma, but there are some bars that stay open late and a couple of night clubs.

Me and my boyfriend aged 18 went on our first holiday here. So imagine we were really excited. I had seen good reviews and some bad.. so i wasnt too botherd... i just wanted to get there. After a long journey from the aiport we arrived at hotel samoa! it looks great. lovely spot.. walked inside lovely marlbe floors spiral stair case.. great!! got our room key went to room basic but clean.. bathroom with bath and shower.. very basic could do with some tlc.. anyway we arrived at about 1.30pm so just in time for lunch.. we were very hungry aswell... we tryed most of the food... discusting... calf stew.... could have been dog meat for all we knew.. tasted vile!!! there were always a chef stood cooking something fresh most of the time it was fish.. well it was as chewy as anything and it didnt taste of anything.. and a couple of night he cooked chicken well that wasnt chicken!! there were always pasta which is my fave but after 2 weeks of just eating pasta i looked like a peice of pasta! not much to choose from.. about 5 dishes there were soupe but that was just like warm water. there were salad but that tasted sour! Anyway we thaught lets go to the snack bar.... oh no its the same food as the restaurant! except there were burgers with bread buns.. but the burgers were awful boiled not grilled and so soggy!! the lunch and dinner was the same! nothing changed! breakfast on the other hand was ok. bacon very fatty watery scrambled egg ( id give that a miss ) boiled eggs. carnt go wrong.. fried eggs.. good. beans tomatoes very strangly they were vegtables for breakfast.. alwats bread to toast with jams etc.. i filled up on breakfast beans on toast!!
Weather was rubbish while we were there.. we had 2 days of sunshine and came home as pale as we went!!! thunder storms and rain!! we stayed in the room all day and watched bargain hunt cash in the attic ready steady cook lol! you get bbc1 and 2 on the tele!! ( thank god ) we never got to go in the pool and we sunbathed twice but the pool area is lovely very clean.
plenty of shops to look round. burger king opposite hotel ( that came in handy ) good amusement area just down the road. gorgeous beach..
While we were there a man from our hotel actually died in the sea.. during the bad weather he went for a swim and got banged up against the rocks.. but apparantly in the good weather the sea is very strong as its in a little cove. so if youve got children be careful or stick to the pool. entertainment was fantastic great for children,hotel has bouncy castle although a little girl did break her pelvic on it.. shame..
we paid £350 each for the holiday and ended up spending over £500 in eating out.. shame when you all inclusive!! id of rather of stayed at home for 2 weeks and gone places!!!!
overall.. we were glad we werent working but we wanted to come home! i wouldnt recomment this hotel to any 1 unless it gets a better chef! if you like to eat very sloppy tasteless food youll have a fab time..
3 star rating hotel ???
food no stars
hotel itself 3 star
entertainment 4 star
if your looking to book i recomment you look some where else before you pick the samoa.

having read the reviews thought it wouldnt be that bad as there was very varied
if you want hot decent food
good entairtenment
dont go
food was never hot ok if you like sausage n uneadigable chips
entertainment lucky if it was on for 2 hours a day
had to eat out as food was disgussting
we got some boiled eggs one morning that we would be safe with them
cracked them open raw inside
wouldnt go there again if they paid me
was told on the friday we hadnt paid our bill
showed them our reciept paid in full in january
said we still might have to pay again as someone hadnt paid them
then told we was ok the next day
what a waste of time they are

me and girl just bk from samon hotel. wee just stayd 3 nights for a short stay. hotel was spottles. pool was g8 and the beach was even better, it was just 5 mins walk away. food was ok and personly i cant c y some people has been moaning about it. the only problem we had was the staff in the resterunt wish found really rude excpecily 1 man going grey wif glass. in the middle of our meal twice he rudly ask us 2 move seats. the place was empty so dont no y he kept doing it then if that wasnt bad enough he startd stouting in spinish so we couldnt here wot he was sayn. be aware of him.the shops or just really out side hotel witch was g8. we enjoyed r selfs so much we r thinking of going bk next year wif the kids.entertainment wasnt that good thought. but thay did try so all i can say is except that checky waiter we had good time.

Just returned from a great week at the Samoa Hotel.
Didnt really know what to expect but we pulled up outside and were pretty impressed with our overall first impression.
On checking in, we went to our room which wasn't disapointing, quite basic but very clean. Lovely view over the sea and spacious balcony!! half expected the shower to be cold (previous experiences at other hotels) but the shower was lovely and warm and very powerful!! it stayed like this all day long which was really nice after a swim on the beach (which again, was a lovely beach and not far from the hotel - worth a visit!!) its just behind the Hotel America down some steps.
The staff - hmm.. most of them would of cracked their faces if they had of smiled im sure!! but the room cleaning ladies were bright and cheery which helped loads and even tried to crack the odd English joke which made us chuckle as they were rubbish!!
The food: A lot of people where winging about the food but to be honest, it was really nice!! You could easily vary your meal every day. The fish served was lovely - be warned - the onion rings are not onion rings, they are squid!! I now find I like squid!! ha ha. They put on a chinese themed night one night that fell flat but hey, at least they tried!! couldnt of wanted much more to be honest (for what we paid)
Entertainment: Not much on really, this was the only thing that really let the complex down, couple of days were overcast and we could of done with "something extra" to do as the area outside the complex was quite quiet (although this could of been to do with the resort kina going out of season). They put on archery or shooting but that wasn't for me or my partner.
Me and my partner really did have a lovely time here, it's great for couples and families and we would go again. Im missing the sun already!! I would give this place an 8 out of 10.

Booked with seguro - to say a bit worried regarding flights is an understatement. Everything went on time - flights - transfers etc.
Hotel was spotless around pool area and staff couldn't have been any nicer.
All inclusive food - drinks,food were plentifull. My wife,mother in law and 2 kids 14 + 9 had a fantastic time. Golf,t.v.,air conditioning,table tennis - 20 euro deposit each - given back when returning remotes or clubs etc.
5 mins walk slightly downhill to a packed beach - better off staying at pool.
Shops are limited - half an hour a night looking round them was plenty.
Rooms were cleaned everyday - fresh towels also when required.
I had my doubts about the all inclusive but would do again without hesitation.
Great time had by all - everyone we spoke to also had a great time.
