Stayed here about 8 years ago and it was like stepping back in time. Think the hotel hadn't been decorated since it was built in the 60's. Amazed it's still standing given the condition of some parts of it back then!

15kg standard luggage allowance? I thought 'standard' luggage allowance was 20-23kg?
philjstephenson to mjk
12 Feb 16#45
I think the 20-23 is long haul luggage, 15 kg is pretty standard shot haul

Stayed here about 25 and then 3 years ago, don't think it was called what it is now though wither time!
It was okay, it's a cheap large complex, rooms are basic. Food and drink bearable, not great but okay. Nice big pools, sun loungers get grabbed early doors but this time a year shouldn't be a problem.
Local resort is tired as every hotel is all inc.
Would I go back no way, but I was pleasantly surprised, you make what you do out of it I suppose.

In fact it was called Club Calla Romani last time I went and I think the Agumar 25 years ago but that's a guess!!

Good deal, but weather can be hit and miss in May. We went to Majorca in March one year and it was lovely, and the following year we went at beginning of June and it wasn't anywhere near as nice...

We were in April last year and the weather was great, not very hot ,about 20 degrees but very sunny (2 days warm enough to go sunbathing on the beach).Cold evenings and nights though (13-14 degrees).May should be warmer, with even longer days. Half empty road with tens of peletons of cyclists, fantastic. Hate All inclusive as they are usually full of drunks and encourage to stay close to the hotel. Prefer to pay more and relax.Ridiculously low price, good deal for the more idle.Hot

Right I should have clicked the link first, it's not the hotel I've just talked about, although the pools pictured above is from the hotel I described and not the one you'd be booking.

Wasn't this previously the sol mastines/chihauas hotel?
simes to futura
9 Feb 16#24
yes and also the Sol Balmoral. The whole complex is now merged into one.
The Chihuahas is the best of the 3, it has amazing views out to sea. When i last went about 8 years ago, only the balmoral offered all inclusive - now the whole complex has it.
in May there will probably only be one of the three hotels open.

I stayed here back in the 80's as a Teenager. Had a high diving board and flume back then as well, which i see are missing these days!
The facilities were tired back then

Stayed at other hotels in Calas de Mallorca several times as a toddler and child. Nice little resort. Not too much to do other than a few small markets and some restaurants but a nice little beach cove and some places to walk. I think I remember the Balmoral was next door to us so the hotel has been around for at least 15 years.

Strange that its now classified as a 2 star as im sure when it was the sol hotel(s) it was 3-4 star
Na, see my other posts. The picture of the pools is wrong it's another hotel the one I stayed in.

That's the point I was making. It's a bit of a roll of the dice. We went end of April / May one year and it was warmer back in the UK!...and I kept seeing all the cyclists and wished I'd taken my bike!!

Seeing the roads in majorka (often narrow but close to perfect surface) i am not going there without my bike shoes :smiley: .hiring decent bike for a week shouldnt cost more than €70. Love the island, it has so much to offer

12 Feb 161#49
As someone said, this is a basic resort in a basic location, probably worth avoiding the all inclusive, the restaurants on the resort are....basic, but some are nice. We went there on a rainy day and were forced inside most of the time around the crazy golf course, it is like going back in time Was looking for urbexing sites whilst out there (Sept last year) and wasn't expecting to find one here..... on the outskirts of the resort:
There was one person living in a single apartment of what must have been an 80 room hotel, he had the penthouse suite (see 3rd picture above)

Went there two years ago, make sure you go for sea view otherwise you get balmoral hotel which isn't as pleasant.

To be honest its more of a personal thing, certain things offend me (about most hotels, but specifically all inclusive hotels ) which don't bother others, so it wouldn't be fair to give my biased opinion. Check out tripadvisor reviews and draw your own conclusions from the reviews on that.
