Apartments Las Velas

I was 10 years old and went to Las Velas apartments in August and I had a lovely and brilliant time. The pools are very big and enjoyable and the staff were very friendly and helpful, they sold ice lollies and they had there own little park. The TV channels were like the ones you could get in England and they showed programs like Doctor Who. Although it was situated on the main road it was like it wasnt there, it was a stones throw from the beach and the main town was a nice 15-20 minute walk away. For fellow kids like me the water park was only in Alcudia that was only a 20 minute bus ride away. The beach was very nice with pedeloes that you could drive yourself, they had a waterslide on the back and were very entertaining. They also had volley ball nets set up there so you could play. The best restaurant that I would highly recommend was the Sparrow's restaurant that served lovely food and also had a pool table for mid-meal entertainment. The apartments were very clean and tidy and were very big. There was a free washing machine round the back of the apartments where you could wash your clothes and they would be nice and clean. The air-conditioning was very nice in the hot nights and throughout the hot days. There was shops in the town that sold all of dietry needs and many more. The only downside to the apartments were the constant bites from the mosquitoes. But apart fropm that it was the best holiday ever!

It was our first time to majorca and we found puerto pollensa beautiful. Our appts were 2 bedrooms of which were spotless clean everything you needed was available we had a kettle microwave,fridgefreezer,hob. our 2 children age 11,12. loved the two pools.the staff were fantastic they were very helpful told us about the bus services to alcudia, about 20 mins away and so cheap,2 adults 2 children 10 euros return.The buses were fantastic every 15 mins and always on time. the old square is lovely to walk around plenty of eating houses for every taste.The pinewalk is a must.The stroll back on a night on the promanade is so enjoyable plenty of restaurants or bars to call in if you wish to do so.the beaches are the best soft white sands perfect for the children clear blue sky and turquoise water what else could one want in a holiday.

We had a wonderful holiday here. The apartments are spotlessly clean and the people very friendly. It is quite a way back from the beach, but we managed with a 4 and a 6 year old easily. We used the kids club at the large hotel down the road. The apartments are next to a new main road, but it isn't busy and there was no noise from the traffic - in fact there was hardly any traffic on it!! There is plenty of space around the pool so you don't feel like your sitting on top of people. The beach is the same. I love Pollenca and would definitley come back to these apartments again! The only thing I could moan about is the ants in the aprtment - but they provided us with ant spray!

I've just returned from the Las Velas and Puerto Pollensa with my husband and 10 month old son. The first apartment we were allocated was very damp, to the point that our clothes and the bedding became damp, (this may have been due to the freak week of rain they had 2 days prior to our arrival). We reported the problem to the rep and reception staff, who were very apologetic and promptly moved us into a much drier apartment. The apartment was spacious and clean and certainly deserves its 3 star rating. Although the hotel staff were more like that you'd expect at a five star hotel. They were extremely helpful and our son was particularly taken with the lady on reception, who was lovely. However, a big problem for the future will be the main road currently being completed directly outside the apartments. It seems as though the road has been built to direct traffic away from the coastal road running from puerto Pollensa to Alcudia. If it does become a busy road the noise will certainly be heard from inside the apartments when the windows are open. This is a real shame as the standard of the apartments and friendliness of the staff make the Las Velas an otherwise perfect choice in its price range.

great spot,good rooms,clean with comy beds nice balcony. Staff spot on,good gen on cars trips etc,much better than tomy cook who will have to improve this aspect if they want more custom! gardens good /pools good. But you can also use pollens park hotel as well which is very busy during peak,but a snbed could always be found! Great disco for kids and elivs etc can usually be found in the building for the grown ups! Staff here also vgood and most have worksd there for some time which is always a good sign.

EXCELLENT a nice family environment, the best I have ever been to - you will be crazy not to go. The reception staff were very encouraging by teaching and helping you with your Spanish, they were also very helpful on offering places to go for the day- one of the most spectacular was driving around the mountains EXELENTÉ ADIOS AMIGOS!!!!!
