The Cala Galdana Gardens Apts are excellent. We stayed here Sept 07, they are perfect for a nice relaxing cheap-ish break.

Not too busy, the pool was never crowded and you always got a sun lounger. Nice friendly apartments with a lovely receptionist.
Rooms clean and comfortable and spacious, especially with only the 2 of us.

Location is everything - 2 minutes walk from the beach, right on ground level along the front of the resort so no walks up and down the hill. However despite the location no noise at all after 11pm while we were there, and no noise in the complex itself.

Worth asking for apts 1-8 to be on the front facing out, the apartments at the back look down onto the pool and some (including ours) look through some trees onto the beach, photos attached.

The resort itself is very quiet and family orientated, a few nice bars and restaurants. Entertainment is on in the main square every night, mostly (pretty good) tribute bands. Also the main hotels have entertainment anyone can go and watch, although we found the drinks prices to be expensive.

The beach is lovely, nicest I have seen, very clean and not too busy. Only bad thing is it cost 22 € for 2 sun loungers and an umbrella which we thought was extortionate so we bought lilos and lay on them - also good cos you can move in the tree-shaded area if the heat gets too much.
There is a nice restuarant in the centre of the resort with a pool outside, a few slides and crazy golf for kids.

Would definitely go back.

Cala Galdana is picturesque and ideal for families with young children and couples seeking some rest and relaxation. The resort is compact, with a handful of shops and restaurants - don't come here if you are looking for lots of action as everything goes quiet around 11.30pm. The prices are similar to UK, and the supermarkets have good selection of food and drink. The beach is fantastic, with crystal clear waters although the sunbeds/parasol are pricey at 22 euros per day. A lot of people bought lilos and a parasol in the supermarkets and sat on the sand. Galdana Gardens are set right at the centre of the resort, and everything is within a 5 min walk. There are some restaurants that are up a steep hill, but they are mainly on the main road. The apts are clean and well maintained with the added bonus of air conditioning (great when the temperature outside is high) and Sky News, BBC1, BBC3, CBeebies and ITV! Beds were a little uncomfortable and the towels could have been changed a little more frequently. Our apt was on the top floor (4th) and the views were amazing, right across the harbout to the beach and we would spend many hours just chilling out with a glass of vino admiring the views ! Pool area small but well maintained and the water was inviting. All in all a great place for a quiet relaxing holiday and would definately recommend.

FAB Location, beautiful gardens, very relaxing. swimming pool smaller than average but lovely and never over crowded. Couldn't get any closer to the beach if you tried. Beautiful setting for families and couples not sploit by british pubs and noisy clubs!! Just lovely spanish bars and restaurants and views to die for. The beach is the nicest I've ever been to with lovely views around the bay.

cala galdans gardens proved to be a very clean, quiet, modern hotel. the beach is a two minute walk and all rooms have sea or pool views. as some of the resort is on hilly land, these appartments were on the flat making it easily accessible to the shops, resaurants and beach. right at the centre of the resort, cala galdana appartments seemed hidden away and very private although the souvenir shops run along the promenade directly below the hotel. wonderfully maintained gardens although pool is quite small, but never overcrowded. spacious rooms containing all you would need. will definately return to cala galdana and probably this hotel
