Playa de Muro hotels

My husband and I booked this hotel for a relaxing holiday break in mid Jun after seeing other reviews and we wanted a 4 star hotel. We stayed in standard room which was ok. The room was basic and in my opinion a little disappointing for a 4 star. But the bathroom was nice with everything you would expect. The only noise was from evening hotel activities and entertainment, which didn't bother us at all, but may affect those wanting to sleep early. Hotel amenities - pools, bar, spa, entertainment were very good. Pleasant atmosphere with mostly French and German visitors and few British visitors during our stay. Breakfast was nice with variety of choices and friendly staff in the restaurant.

We stayed on the 2nd floor in room 203 and had a nice relaxing lake view. The room had recently been refurbished and had a nice bathroom with a fantastic walk in shower. The room was a decent size and had a TV with UK channels. Free WiFi was available however the reliability was hit and miss probably due to the speed of the internet connection. We went all inclusive and enjoyed a variation of meals throughout the week. Breakfast was great but wish they would import proper back bacon, not keen on the streaky stuff but this is the same all across Majorca. We tried a variation of drinks including Fruit juices, wines, beers and sangria and can't fault them for the price of the stay. The Sangria was very pleasant! The hotel is a 10min walk from the beach but shuttle bus is provided which runs every half an hour or so. We were happy walking to get abit of exercise and visit shops and bars on the way. Free parking is included which would be worth thinking about as the transfer is quite a way from Palma, we hired a car for around 100 euros at the Airport and enjoyed the freedom of day trips during the week. Entertainment is provided each night which varies from musical performances and Bingo to parrot shows where they rode bikes and and played games. There are two main pool areas, one near the hotel and one across the road called Brezzers. Both are large and have adequate amount of sun beds. We found the Brezzers area to be abit quieter but both were great. Very happy!!

Had a great time at this hotel and recommend it. Hotel, facilities, food and beach access were great. Grounds are extensive, so you can always find a nice spot. No towels on sunbeds and three pools across the complex to choose from. Guests are mainly from Germany, so British visitors are in the minority. Friendly and helpful staff, reasonable prices and good entertainment. We also found a great "chill out" beach bar just 5 minutes walk up the beach.

Pool area, restaurant and service all really good. Rooms comfortable equipped with fridge. Surrounding area is a nature reserve and lovely. 15 min walk to beach and town, don't need to get the bus

This is a wonderful place to go with friends, family and children. Very basic accommodation. Kept very clean, tiny bath tub. Only criticism of the rooms is that the beds are too hard for me, I wish I'ld asked for a topper, felt it most the last two days. Only criticism of the facilities and service which are great and the food is really good, (esp. The mojitos) is during lunch they closed kitchen so when my plate was cleared and I asked for fruit as dessert it was a straight no, it was 4.05, I thought that was a bit strange as I was mid-meal. Apart from that I would not hesitate to go back.

We took a short weekend away and chose the iberostar which was excellent, really nice place with lots of friendly staff

We stayed there for four days to attend the Ironman Mallorca 70.3 event , though conveniently placed - not too close and not too far, unfortunately on the day of the event the road in front of the hotel was closed, we therefore had no option but to walk the 4kms to the start/finish line - it did us good

Hotel was nice with plenty of activities , situated on the beach, our room was quite small for 2 adults and one child! Buffet restaurant and food ok but gets quite busy and noisy, restaurants 5-10 minute walk, Alcudia port 3 miles away with lots of restaurants but needed to catch bus (4 euros for 3 people) bus stop directly outside hotel or taxi for approx 12 euros.

The hotel is huge and very busy. A lot of staff around the hotel, mostly helpful, rooms and all facilities are clean and nice state; nice animation team - so as far as holiday resort entertainment goes, it's good; provide some opportunities for adults to be active. If you are not demanding over and above that - you'll enjoy your stay. Some concerns are: kids club (actual room) is small and activities are sometimes very basic, kids stay inside a lot; hotel need to be clear that they don't have a beach, it's public beach and guests should still pay for using sunbed and umbrellas and deal with rude beach service; hotel staff constantly offer sweets to kids - it may be in best intention, but i didn't appreciate it; no easy access to water sports; but can book nice boat trips; and it's buffet even for dinner - food is as good as it could be in such a huge place, but it's hard to enjoy dinner, when you have to pick your food in a huge crowd in the dining room. Huge effort from the restaurant team to be helpful though.

We were very impressed by the hotel and the area. It was just right for a relaxing holiday which Is what we needed this year.
