Protur Sa Coma Playa Hotel

Was really looking forward to my holiday at the sa coma playa having read all the positive reviews on Trip Advisor. I was disappointed! The hotel is in a concrete jungle of 4 storey buildings not set in gardens as advertised on website. The resort such as it is has a lovely beach but just a strip of overpriced "British" pubs and restaurants serving chips with everything. Thank goodness we had a car and were able to escape each day. The hotel rooms had the hardest beds I've ever slept on dingy underlit bathrooms, noisy air conditioners and were infested with ants (2nd floor). Food was OK but got quite repetitive. Breakfast was good. Children's entertainment was really lacklustre (the hotel says it has a children's club) but in reality there is not much on offer, no children's club to leave your child for an hour or two just a half hour of colouring every morning and a darts game for the older ones. Spa was shut for 3 out of our 7 days with no prior warning. Gym within the hotel has 1 rusty treadmill and a couple of worn out bikes (c.1970) There are no lights on the balconies either, which seems like a small issue but when travelling with a small child who wishes to go to bed early ,there is nowhere to sit and enjoy a drink/ read later in the evening. Mini golf was the best bit of the resort our son loved it. Lots of towels on sunbeds from dawn!!!!!!!!!!!! After 8.30am it was impossible to get a bed or umbrella. Would not recommend this hotel or the resort the west end of the island has much more to offer or the pollensa area.

Just got back from Sa Coma Playa hotel. Major tip - make sure your driver from the airport gets the name of the accommodation right! We were left at the Sa Coma Platja and then directed to the Sa coma Playa Aparthotel! Ended up in a taxi. When we eventually got to the hotel we were very happy with our stay. it was about 50/50 British and German guests and everyone got on very well. (the world Cup was on also). The staff were very efficient and friendly and the facilities are superb. It is part of a complex of hotels which all share some superb sporting facilities (tennis, crazy golf, driving range, volleyball, etc etc). There are 2 pools at the hotel and the smaller one at the front is quieter with plenty of sunbeds. Did not use the other one. The beach is about five minutes walk away and is very pleasant too. You can hire bikes of all sizes and descriptions right next to the hotel and that is recomended. Cala Millor is about ten minutes away by bike, which is a larger resort. Overall a nice resort and a lovely hotel.

lovley little touches like how they arrange the food and towels. They hand out watermelon by the pool as a gift and they place a pretty bouquet of flowers in your bedroom as a welcome gift, along with a fine bottle of wine. Coktails and sundaes are presented beutifully and the pools, indoor pool and gym are to die for. The spa is excellent and very cheap too!!!

We stayed mid June 2006 and found this hotel very comfortable. The staff were friendly and pleasant, with the hardworking waiters deserving praise. The hotel was clean, and the shower is great. Tui Thomson UK reckon this one of their 4-start Platinum hotels, but there is nothing extra special, although it is 4 star. The hotel and its facilities and pool are clean and well kept. Evening entertainment is nothing special but gives a good excuse to remain around the hotel bar, but there is an early slot for children and the other 3 aparthotels on the same complex have better entertainment for children. Organised daytime activities are available. Enthusiasm of the Animacion team is limited. Guests are mainly German and English. English is spoken by nearly all staff. Guests seem to mainly consist families with young children (under 10 yrs) and older couples, but perhaps this just relates to the time of year. The hotel is on a complex containing several large aparthotels run by the same group. It is a 10 minute walk from a sandy beach. We would say it is in a quiet area. The pool is adjacent to the main road to Calla Millor and there is a Hertz Car Rental office outside as well as various types of pedal powered vehicles available for hire. Food in the main restaurant is generally very good, but there was slightly too much emphasis on seafood for our tastes. There are several other restaurants on the complex that you can use for a supplement if you are staying halfboard here.

Just returned from a great 4 night stay.I booked my hotel through Expedia and got a twin room for sole use at a rate of £25 p.n which included B'fast and dinner!!Food was plentiful, very fresh and tasted good. Room was very comfortable, fab power shower(luvly!) and nice balcony. 2 x outdoor pools looked lovely although too cold in November! Indoor pool and gym good (didn't use gym though). Had a massage in the Hotel Spa "Bio-Mar" and can highly recommend it. Staff very helpful and friendly, bar open til late and the entertainment was of a much higher standard than any hotel I have previously been to- 2 excellent shows! Only down side for some may be the fact that the resort is almost shutdown after 20 Oct-don't go from Nov-Mar if you like a lively resort!(I don't). Also no direct bus to/from airport after 31st Oct so either taxi at 65 euros or I did train to Manacor, then taxi saving 45 euros!! Would definitely recommend this hotel ;)

Good hotel. Large rooms and good facilities. Only one gripe, I could not get on with the squirty soap on the walls. If you like a bar of soap take your own. Entertainment was generally good with a couple of bands excellent, made for a good evenings entertainment. A mini bottle of red wine (2 glasses) and a beer €6.50. Very wide range of foods for both breakfast and dinner. Bacon was great for breakfast and the evening food was different every night with a choice vaying from a salad bar, to cooked meats, fish and a selection of Indian food one night. Too late in the year for much swimming (cool breeze to cool wind) also we had a major thunder storm and rain. The chance you take late Sept/early Oct. But the sun was warm and we did see it. They have an indoor pool which is quite small and square. I suppose it is not used at all during high season. While the food was varied and good we still found ourselves longing for a good steak in a good restaurant. Reception were good. At first they suggested Calla Miller but we just wanted to walk so they suggested La Bodega about 10 mins walk from the hotel on the opposite side of the road to the major supermarket (Do not recall its name). This was a good call. We both had Fillet SteaK (Solomio). It was excellent as were the surroundings and the staff. We both had the feeling that they wanted you to be there and wanted to give you the best they were able. We had a bottle of red wine at €16.00 which was decanted into a good looking decanter at the table, nice touch. We really liked the wine. I had a G&t to start and we had a plate of mixed cheese with a Port each to finish. Total cost was about €78.00 for the lot. Later in the week we went to Oasis, I would walk past it to La Bodega. The prices are comparable but the surroundings and customer care are not. Oasis did not give the impression that they cared at all. Sorry but a waitress in trainers does not seem right. We both had Fillet steaks again and they were good. Not quite to La Bodega but no complaints. The surroundings were not as nice and it just did not feel as good. We did this on our own via Expedia. I was out in Majorca the week before and made my own way to Sa Coma from Palma. Caught the train to Manacor (€3.70) and arrived about 2:30, just the wrong time of day, there is a bus to Sa Coma but it leaves about 6:30 so I caught a taxi for €19.00. My partner arrived in the middle of the week and used resort hopper bus service from the airport for 15 Euro. Good service by all accounts though she had an hour wait for others to join. We used the same service to get back to the airport and it was fine, on time and comfortable. I did get the feeling that it is not a dead cert that they will be able to pick you up if you arrange it over there, but for use it worked. During the rainy days we went on the local bus to Cala Bona. It was damp and we did not venture too far in case we got rained on but I could not see anything there. In fact we caught the bus back with the same driver. Stopped in Cala Maller, much better. (Bus Fare 1.4 Euro ea one way) SMOKERS DIARY It used to be that you could have a quick puff while waiting for your bags, no more. You have to wait till you are outside. This is by the Royal decree of King Carlos(?) and you almost feel that he may come down personally, grab you by the collar and whisk you off to the police if caught having an illicit drag. The hotel is fine. No smoking in the dining areas, fair enough, but OK elsewhere. La Bodega is non-smoking but worth it for the food. The return journey. Before going through security you have to smoke outside but after that you can smoke at some of the bar areas inside the airport. We flew from C48 and there was a bar area with smoking. You can get a coffee from across the way and smoke in the bar area. No Beer! it was 9:30am, too early for me. Hope this all helps. Have fun

The sa coma playa was a wonderful hotel, spotlessly clean standards. we have stopped at many thomson platinums and this was just as great. Situated not to far from beach about a 10 min walk, 3 great pools but if like us you wanted a bit of peace and quite away from noisy kids, then go for the pool at the front of hotel, it's much quieter. we never found it till the second day. In the thomson brochure it says hotel has a spa, which is correct, but what it does not say, is that it is quiet expensive!!! The sa coma has it's own indoor pool aswell and a brilliantly equipped gym. The range of food is brillaint, only disappointing thing was that it didn't cater very well for vegetarians, got a bit boring in choice after a week. Entertainment in hotel was the same old thing, not a high standard but ok. but lots to do on the sea front. The weather was hot all the time we were there and i would defintly stay at the sa coma again.

We were allocated on arrival, and it was a really nice surprise to find ourselves staying at the Sa Coma Playa Hotel. The food was excellent, as was the entertainment etc. There were two outdoor pools, and one indoor (heated), plus a well equiped gym. The staff were extremely helpful and very friendly, nothing was too much trouble. The only thing I could fault was the soundproofing between the adjoining bathrooms. Otherwise everything was perfect. I will definitely return to the Sa Coma Playa one day, as have many other guests who were staying there. A really enjoyable holiday!!

We did not know where we would be staying until arriving in Majorca but were not disappointed at all. The accommadation, food, and staff were all of the highest standard during our visit. Nothing was to much trouble to ensure our stay was enjoyable an memorable. We certainly will look forward to returning to the Hotel again. It was sad to leave and return home to England.

We stayed in Sa Coma and belive me if you want a lovely holiday go there.Not much night live ,but the place is clean and tidy.To show how clean the place is i walked from the beach to the high street and back in my bear feet and was fine,go on get yourself there you will love it. Paul
