Melia Cala d'Or

Hand on heart this was the perfect hotel for us…very little we could fault. We were welcomed with a lovely cold glass of champagne and the children a cold drink each in the beautiful and very quiet seating area behind reception. Stefan checked us in and showed us around the hotel, and the service from him always came with a smile 😊he stood out for us because he went above and beyond. He helped with all aspects of our stay, as did the other reception staff (managing to source taxis, and give us directions, maps etc). The pool was lovely, we didn’t find it particularly difficult to get sunbeds around the pool area, a little harder if you came down after 10:30 ish. The food around the pool and in the pool bar was fantastic, and can be brought over to you loungers. A highlight was the beautiful flowers growing above the pool - it looked so pretty. The food elsewhere in the hotel is lovely too, we had some perfect evening meals and breakfast was delicious with lots of food on offer. You can have eggs cooked how you liked if you ask the chefs, my only criticism is the chefs tended to be quite grumpy, but all the other waiting staff were very helpful (especially the slightly older lady - sorry didn’t get her name but she had everything under control and really made us feel welcome with all we needed). Our room was great, the ac unit worked perfectly and kept us comfortable and cool. We had a lovely terrace which looked out over the pool and the room was well equipped for our needs as a family of 4. I’d have liked to have a proper quilt for the children as they felt cold, but this is a small problem that I’m sure staff would have solved for us had we asked. The beds were comfy and the pillows perfect! My only other wish would have been somewhere to do make up other than the bathroom - it wasn’t quite bright enough in there so I had to try and balance my make up bag and mirror outside which wasn’t easy. I had my reservations if this hotel would be suitable for a family (we are 2 adults and 2 kids aged 13 & 9) but can say it fitted our needs perfectly and the children had a great time. This might not be the hotel for you if you’re looking for somewhere with tonnes of activities for children, but if you have slightly older children and are looking for somewhere quiet and peaceful with great food and a touch of luxury, this is the place for you. 🌸

Melia Cala d’Or Boutique Hotel is a true hidden gem. Its location is wonderfully quiet and tranquil, yet right in the heart of Cala d’Or, so everything is within easy walking distance and there is no need for public transport. The hotel grounds are simply stunning, beautifully maintained and surrounded by greenery and flowers that create a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. As an independent travel agent, I have stayed in countless hotels, but this one genuinely stood out for how restful it felt. With only 55 rooms, it offers an intimate and serene experience – no overcrowding, no rush at breakfast, just pure relaxation away from the hustle and bustle. The breakfast itself was excellent, and the friendly staff added to the welcoming and calm vibe. While some might say the hotel is slightly outdated, I found that it only enhanced its charm. It truly feels like staying in a grand old villa, with spacious rooms and only a handful located in each building, giving an added sense of privacy and seclusion. Everything was spotlessly clean, the air conditioning worked perfectly, and the rooms were equipped with all the handy amenities you could need. This is an ideal choice for anyone seeking peace and quiet without being isolated – you can reach the beaches, restaurants, and town centre in just a couple of minutes. A perfect spot for those who want to recharge in beautiful surroundings.

Really great hotel. All the staff were great. We liked that it was boutique, so not overly busy. It was great for our 18 month old as there is a shallow kids pool plenty other young kids for him to play with. Overall it’s a lovely, relaxing hotel which is ideal in what is quite a busy, hectic town.

This hotel is a gem. We absolutely loved our stay here. The highlight was most definitely the pool and its surroundings. I would have happily spent my entire time there. Location is fantastic, close enough to be walking distance to the beach and restaurants but just that far enough away from the craziness. The hotel has old school charm with modern features, a perfect combo. The staff was exceptional and a real credit to this hotel. From front desk, to the pool, to the breakfast kitchen. Thank you for making our stay so wonderful. We also really enjoyed the breakfast, there was a great variety and great quality. The real highlight was the Saturday entertainment. Pianist at breakfast was a holiday highlight and the singer at the pool was a treat. We hope to be back soon!

The location is excellent, just a short walk from the beach, shops, and restaurants. Parking on the street was easy, and there’s a private (paid) option if needed. The staff was very friendly, kind and attentive. The pool and bar area were great, the lunch menu was good, and while the gym is small, it’s enough for a quick workout. The hotel was clean, but I didn’t find it particularly cozy or inviting. I was a bit unlucky with the weather, which made the lack of warmth in the atmosphere stand out more. Breakfast was fine, though I had higher expectations for the price range. The elevator wasn’t working during my stay, which didn’t bother me but could be inconvenient for others. One thing I found surprising was the guest demographic. Most guests were older, which I didn’t expect given how modern and contemporary the hotel’s branding feels. I chose this Hotel because I was really drawn to the branding and expected something special. In the end, the experience didn’t quite live up to what was promised online. It left me wondering whether this is just the case for this specific location, or if the brand’s image is more style over substance. I would be open to trying another Meliá property in the future to see if the experience is more aligned with the brand’s promise.
