This review is written in the context that we got an all-inclusive (breakfast, lunch, snacks, dinner and drinks) deal for the price we usually pay for B&B, so it was excellent value and saved us spending much as all on this week in Mallorca.
The hotel is a 14-floor tower block, the kind Mallorca is trying to get rid of as it goes for a more upmarket image. The hotel is mainly for families and older people, as is the Can Picafort resort, and there seemed to be a 50/50 split of British and German customers.
We were on the 10th floor which gave superb views of the bay and kept as away from the noise of the entertainment, although I was rather uncomfortable on the balcony due to my fear of heights! The room itself was a good standard and cleaned well every day.
There can be a long wait for lifts going down, but going up we didn't have to wait long at all.
The food was a good selection and better than expected, although the restaurant is busy, and the snack bar was ideal if you are out and about so miss lunch.
The drinks are served in little plastic cups, and it's a shame they have no recycling facilities for these which is rather wasteful. We never had to queue for long though and each person could get two drinks at a time.
The staff were friendly and very hardworking, so if you do go please think of them and leave a tip.
The hotel charges 3 Euros an hour for wi-fi sadly. Free wi-fi please!!
The hotel's location is good, a short walk from the beach. There is a bus stop on the road opposite the hotel with a service to Porto de Pollenca (via the Albufera nature reserve, Porto de Alcudia and Alcudia) every 15 minutes. At 9am there is a bus to the lovely Pollenca too (or you can get a later one and change at Porto de Pollenca).
I read online that Can Picafort is rather run down, but we didn't find that and we enjoyed our visit. It is a good base to explore Mallora and the Hotel Tonga is a decent choice if you can get it for a good price when you want to go.
