28/07/2007 – 11/08/2007
We returned from the Los Principes on the 11th August after two lovely hot weeks there, and not for the first time; that was our fourth visit over the last 9 years and I am sure it won’t be our last. We are a family of four with children aged 22 and 18 still tagging along. We love the place it’s like our second home. It does seem to be mainly Germans, but some are very friendly, many of them like ourselves returning year after year stopping up late and socialising with us. We see a lot of familiar faces each time we go.
It’s perfectly situated directly on the beach of Munro, with only a footstep out of the hotel garden and you’re on the golden sand. The sea is very safe and crystal clear, perfect for young children. The beach front bar is nice to sit at looking out over Alcudia Bay with a glass of Sangria in one hand! In previous years we have hired sun beds on the beach as we found there wasn’t enough sun beds in the hotel grounds available, but we never had that problem this year and managed to find a sun bed and space every day and that was without getting up at 7am, normally between 9 and 10. There are a few trees in the grounds which provide shade in the afternoon which can be greatly appreciated.
The hotel is spotlessly clean, rooms are cleaned daily. There was one day where one of our rooms were missed but a quick call to reception and it was sorted straight away. This year we were lucky enough to be placed on the fourth floor over looking the pool and out to sea.
The food is very good; there is always plenty of choice you would never go hungry, with show cooking taking place both at breakfast and evening meal, with dishes being constantly refilled. The displays in the restaurant are pretty impressive too all made from food and very detailed.
Entertainment could be better. During the day the hotel has its own entertainment crew keeping all the children happy and busy, I think there have been better crews in previous years but overall they do a great job. Evening entertainment was ok I would defiantly recommend you to watch out for Liam Live who does a tribute to Robbie Williams and We Will Rock You, they where very professional.
Los Principes is a very friendly hotel the staff are always happy to help, and make your stay even more enjoyable, they have remembered our faces each time we’ve been back over the years and always want to chat. Even members of staff who have left and gone to work else would often call in to see us on an evening.
All in all we have never had a bad time at this hotel and it will be a hotel we’ll always visit for years to come.
