Very nice hotel. However the main dissapointment was the lack of sunbeds around the pool area. This did spoil our holiday as we are not beach people and we were having to get up very early on our holiday to reserve a sunbed with our towel. By 08.30... read more

We've just spent 4 weeks in the Yaramar and had a really good break. Our room overlooked the pool and had views to the marina and surrounding hills. It was clean and warm. The staff were the friendliest we've ever met, including the beach bar. The food... read more

A nice hotel with very caring staff for whom nothing was too much trouble.



Food was okay (the usual gold hotel buffet) although choices were less than inspiring and one wonders if they employ an expert to ruin meat courses.... read more

Fabulous hotel with the best staff I have encountered in several years of holidaying in Spain or the Balearics. They smile a lot and nothing seems to be a problem for them. Pity I can't say the same about Thomson’s reps who have no interest in their... read more

Went for a half term holiday break. The weather was beautiful. Warm, bordering on the hot some days, and sunny.



Our room overlooked the pool and we could sit out on the balcony at night as it was so warm.
