This is meant to be a constructive review and I hope is judged as such. I will itemise sections for clarity.
Public Areas. These are all spacious and comfortably furnished. The lobby, the two bars and the terraces are all a pleasure to sit in, either for relaxation, a quiet drink with friends or to listen to, and watch, the musical entertainment.
The Pool area is equipped with sufficient sunbeds, at least that was my experience in September, but you will need to take your own beach towels if you do not wish to pay the hire charge for the use of the Hotels's towels. I would have expected free towels to be issued at the poolside in a four star hotel, but that is a personal fad. The poolside restaurant is adequedate for lunchtime snacks and drinks.
The Bedrooms and bathrooms are well equipped, of a reasonable size with comfortable beds and are immaculately clean, which is a must for any accommodation in a hot climate. Some balconies are smaller than others depending upon your location in the hotel. Our room was on the sixth floor overlooking the Marina and Harbour which was a picturesque view both day and night.
The Restaurant is pleasant to eat in with good furnishings. The food is a mixed blessing in that it is plentiful with a wide choice but the presentation of the hot food is sometimes offputting by being piled up in large quantities on serving platters. having said this, the meat, fish and vegetables are all well cooked but leading more toward the continental style rather than our familiar bland boiling methods. The salad bar is a delight with tuna, prawns and other seafood accompaniments which are a good alternative to a hot dinner. The desserts are exceptionally good and varied, with an unexpected array of good cheeses and buscuits, which will complement your Spanish wine, this being all that is on the wine list. Breakfast caters for all tastes and requirements, but the heat of the cooked breakfast is not always as it should be, but this can be rectified by the subtle use of the microwave oven supplied.The bacon and sausages could be better cooked. It's really a question of being in at the right time.
The Location has been the subject of mixed reviews, but we found it to be a five minute comfortable stroll to the Marina and not more than ten minutes to the town centre, and we are senior citizens.
The staff are, without exception, friendly and helpful, even at the end of the season when they must be wishing that it was all over for another year.
In General it was a good holiday. Santa Eulalia is very scenic, the amenities are good, the Rambla Restaurant is the best kept secret in Ibiza and is a must for their set lunch. The hotel is, hopefully, as I have desribed it and is as you see it in the brochures. There should be no surprises and, lets face it, the price is right.
