Just got back from a lovely week at Las Gaviotas. Had a brilliant time we have two little girls aged 3 and 1 and they had a ball. Hotel was excellent. Very clean and helpful staff. On arrival our bathroom did not have a light buld and we were compensated with a free evening meal the next evening. There are two large swimming pools one main for the children which is brilliant which also has a large play area with water features. Would recommend this hotel to anyone with children. Beach is very close with some lovely restuarants nearby. Booked through First Choice whose picture in the brochure did not do this hotel any justice. Would go again. Met a lovely family whilst their but have lost their e-mail so if you read this Debbie please get in touch.

Booked this holiday as a quiet couple of weeks away with the kids.
No English kids club at the hotel, although German/Swedish kids catered for. Two fab immaculate pools so the kids just entertained themselves.
V noisy location, on very busy main road, we were initially put in room 431 at front of hotel-lovely room but couldn't sit on balcony because of noise from road and smell from Burgerking downstairs, view is Burgerking rotund sign!!!!!! Interior of room 4/5 star!! but asked to be moved as there were no self catering facilities, no view and awful smell. Staff couldn't have been nicer, moved us 3 days later and offered breakfast and evening meal as compensation, breakfast was brilliant but wouldn't recommend dinner, fab choice of restaurants within 2 mins of hotel.
Once inside the complex, it's clean, very well managed, a safe fun environment and not noisy at all, in some of the walk ways there are 'silence!' signs.
The reception staff, catering staff and bar staff are caring, professional, helpful and very friendly. They have a small entertainment evening in the bar most evenings ranging from Flamenco dancers to Bingo!
Had towels to reserve sun beds taken off sunbeds by hotel pool attendant at 7:00am but if you go to the pool after 8:00 all the sun beds are taken!! also had inflatable boat taken, so take your inflatables with you each evening
Reasonable standard of accomodation, the apartments are being upgraded to a four star 'hotel only' next year and the four star part of the hotel is really four star but the old parts are neglected as they are in the process of being replaced. Lovely hotel but very Blackpool location. V pleasent fellow holiday makers!
Overall a very good holiday, booked through First Choice, their rep Claire was a fabulous help with changing our room and helping to find a chemist, trips out etc. Went to Pirates and Western world aqua park, both highly recommendable.
All restaurants and supermarkets take visa, rate not amazing but v convenient.

Just returned from the Las Gaviotas. The staff were brilliant and the resort was lovely. Had trouble getting on beach as it was very busy and lots of beds reserved and not used. Unfortunatly there was no entertainment around the pool during the day for the children. Getting a sunbed was okay up until about 9am, they were being reseved very early in the morning. This is a multi national hotel, Germans, Swedes etc. We did not have a renovated room but the standard was still good, the largest we have every stayed in. We were allocated a pool view and high floor as requested at time of booking at no extra cost. Claire the First Choice rep was very helpful and all the receptionists were very knowlegeable, friendly and helpful. Would stay at this hotel if there was more to do for the children.

Stayed at these apartments for a week five of us,rooms where excellent two bedrooms also air-con throughout,also very nice lounge diner with all accesories you will need. lcd tv as well,two swimming pools are spotless, food at poolside bar was very nice though quite basic ie salads and burgers .Area itself ok mind the mozzies as there is a lake in puerto alcudia and rivers that run off it all over the place.Lots of restaraunts nearby and bars .But prices a bit steep compared with greek isles,ie cheapest pint average £2.10p a pint,Beach nearby is stunning with plenty of room to sunbathe.Ate quite a lot at the nearby swan british pub nice cheap food.Staff at the apartments where very helpfull and pleasant.we travelled with first choice and the staff where fantastic.would go back to the area as the apartments cannot be faulted.
