Overall, we had a really nice time at Iberostar Selection Playa de Muro Village. We particularly liked the room setup. We had a suite and a family suite, and both were spacious, with large balconies and good facilities, e.g. Nespresso machines, microwaves, a well stocked mini bar, and similar. The beds were extremely comfortable, too! Food was very good - better than expected. We booked half board. Unfortunately we only had access to the buffet with this, but the quality of the food was generally very high, and the service was spot-on. There was a lot of good sea food on offer! Things we didn't love: We tried to contact the hotel well before our arrival to ensure that our rooms were next to each other (easier with a relatively young child...), but the email that we sent through the Expedia app went unanswered. We then used Iberostar's own online check-in to reserve two rooms, next to each other, but the hotel could not find a record of one of the bookings (although I had a confirmation email!). So we weren't as close together as we had planned. No huge drama, but as we went out of our way to sort this pre-arrival, it was annoying. The hotel manager was incredibly nice and tried to help, but there were no good options for us available. The spa / indoor pool is shared with the 4-star hotel next door, and it was quite overcrowded when we went, and a little chaotic. Also, the changing facilities were really poor - zero privacy and not very clean.

Home away from home
Wonderful stay at a great resort! B u t … Since we are an adult couple, we would have preferred that this was an adult only resort. Because it was a lot of noise and crying from kids and babies - at breakfast, dinner, by the pool and at the beach. It wasn’t quiet for a second - and that was what we really needed. But - we discovered a little late that at least for dinner, that there were a small adults only- section. Wish they could have told us at check in or at least in the restaurant when we said our room number and they saw that it was just the two of us. And for improvement: Maybe it could be an area by the pool as well - only for adults? Besides this, we really really love Playa de Muro Village. And lovely lady at the reception that did the check in ( Carina maybe?). And let us not forget LUKAS !!! The entertainer! He was a blast!!! Sooo nice and so funny!! And great that he joined many guests from different nations to make sangria all together! You must do everything you can to KEEP him at your hotel!!! And - it was very nice that one of the waitresses every day offered a drink by the pool. Super nice indeed.

Not a 5 star hotel. It is decent and close to Beach. We did not eat breakfast but judging by the taste of coffee, the breakfast may not be amazing. Staff are friendly but checkin process in chaotic due to under staffing. Rooms are decent and it is a family and kids friendly place. Not the best place for people without kids.

Would highly recommend playa de muro village. Access to the beach was from the hotel so felt safe for little ones, and the hotel facilities are fantastic. There is an indoor pool in case it is too chilly to use the outdoor pools. The kids evening entertainment was a hit, but we missed out on alone time as didn’t realise the kids club was only available for drop off from 4yo (we have a 5yo and 2yo). Quality of food was great, but lunch options were limited tbh. Would highly recommend a stay here, especially if you love to cycle as there are a lot of cyclists around alcudia! We stayed in April and it was a bit chilly, might be better in May.

Good beach and food, poor check-in and comfort
Not a great attitude from the reception staff during check-in, telling us that the room we booked didn't exist and blaming Hotels.com for advertising this non-existing room. Eventually, after dragging our luggage from one room to another for an hour, they put us into an OK-ish room but still not as advertised, and refused to upgrade us to a better room for free. Buffet breakfast/dinners were generally good, particularly, in the beachfront cafe. We enjoyed the meals and the view. The beach itself is nice, but very narrow and overcrowded with beach umbrellas/chairs. If you don't wish to use them, you basically have no space left for you. Apart from the hotel, there is pretty much nothing to do outside within walking distance, which is pretty sad. It's good that we stayed only for 4 nights. P.S.: Beware, this "family-friendly hotel" has no lifts, so if you've got a pushchair, you'll need to conquer stairs multiple times a day.

When it comes to hotels I think here are the most important categories 1. Location 2. Room and hotel quality 3. Friendliest of staff and service 4. Entertainment 5. Food 1. Location very good with lovely beach outside of hotel. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby 2. Room and hotel quality satisfactory with the only exception that air conditionally poor and takes ages to cool room down 3. Amazing staff.. the staff are clearly happy to be working there and everyone are friendly and willing to help. The lovely touches are like they remember what you like to eat, remember your names etc. Best I have seen. Special mention to a staff called Conchita, my kids loved her!! 4. Incredible entertainment, shows every evening, one for kids and another for the grown ups. Even lots o entertainments by pool during the day too. Obviously given real thought process. One of the best I have experienced 5. Amazing food and not shy on ingredients. Different food every day in the buffet ensuring that you won’t be bored. Great quality and good variety. Was there for 14 days and was not bored by the end of it having eaten there for breakfast and dinner every day for 2 weeks there. What an amazing hotel, would definitely go back, not the best rooms or the fanciest hotel I have been to but certainly the best as a whole package. My wife and my two daughters (4 and 2) loved it. We made many friends there too which tells you the friendly vibe the hotel gives

Ok but not good value for money
Overall the hotel is recently refurbished but not what I would call a 5 star facility. We staid an extra 4 nights at the 4 star iberostar next door at half the price and hardly notice a difference. So far only the buffet quality seems slightly superior but not good value for money. Very friendly staff but I wish I didn’t waste my money as it was not a true five star experience Mx

Lovely modern feel, room was lovely a big. Loved the separate living room, loved the location . The staff were brilliant and would do anything you wanted Only things we would have liked are sun beds on the beach as part of the hotel as I am not willing to pay for the ones currently The air con wasn’t on in the room and despite asking twice this was never on properly so it was hot in the room. The hotel did explain that they had only just switched on the air con in the hotel and did provide us a fan

2 quick nights away from NY for a babymoon
We came for a quick visit from NY leaving behind our toddler to enjoy a relaxing baby moon. Everything about this place was great. Upon check-in, we were given drinks (Cava and water) while our concierge David explained the details of our stay. We signed up for half board when booking, which included breakfast and dinner buffets. David advised that we could swap one of those meals to a lunch if needed, which is a great option. We ended up canceling the reservation we made on our 2nd night at a restaurant because the food was so good at dinner the first night. There were tons of options. Breakfast was excellent also. We were very happy with our room which was modern and had a fantastic view. They have blue tooth speakers to connect your phone for music, the shower was glorious, bed was comfy and it was very spacious. The facilities are incredible. The center pool area was warm which was great since it was cool for our May trip. Both pools we went to were very nice and spacious with a bar and bathrooms right there. Then the walk out to the beach was a breathtaking view. Beautiful blue water with mountains in the distance. The service all around was fantastic, the staff was friendly, attentive and made great drinks. We got a complimentary bottle of Cava in our room the 2nd night with some chocolates. Then we also got a free round of drinks at the bar that evening. We had a very relaxing stay and only wish we had more time to enjoy all that they had to offer.

Very nice hotel just by the beach
Great hotel and the food was really good. Only thing not made clear on Expedia is that hotel facilities are shared with the sister 4* hotel next door. Wasn’t a problem for us but would be nice to know. Also triple room is 2 single beds joined together in bedroom and sofa bed in attached siting area. The staff were amazing too and nothing was too much for them. Great indoor and outdoor pools and the beach was amazing :)

Nice hotel right on the beach
Our stay was pleasant and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The buffet food was generally very good. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the hotel is right on the beach for easy access. There's even a kids club to entertain children ages 4+ However, I wouldn't quite call hotel 5 stars. it doesn't quite give you the feeling of luxury or exclusivity that other 5 star resorts I've stayed at have. Perhaps the weather was a bit cool during my stay but the pools felt cold and could have been heated more. There were several times my wife didn't even bother going in the pool because she didn't want to shiver her way in. The hotel has direct beach access but be aware that it's a public beach and tends to get packed. The beach chairs are packed so close to one another you can barely walk through them to get to the beach and there are only a few feet of sand before you get to the water. All in all, while our stay was generally pleasant I've stayed on much nicer beaches and at more luxurious 5-star hotels (albeit for much higher price tags as well).

Amazing!
Just returned from a week's holiday at Iberostar Playa de Muro Village. It suited us as a family of 4 (kids aged 8 and 5) perfectly. The swimming pool was fantastic and it was great being so close to a lovely beach. The staff were fabulous and nothing was too much trouble. They were very efficient and professional at all times and you could also have a laugh and joke with them! We went half board and you could have the option of having either lunch or dinner as part of this deal. This enabled us to try some other local places to eat. We really liked the Royal Beach Club for dinner, which is a 10 min walk down the beach. Though we often did end up having all 3 meals at the hotel as the food was good. One tip though- if you are susceptible to mosquitos then do take a decent insect repellent with you. If you sit out in the evenings, you are likely to get bitten.

Wonderful stay - Go! you'll love it
Wonderful stay of the Iberostar Village -from the moment we arrived you were aware that nothing was too much trouble, champagne on arrival, bags transported to the room. Accommodation was fresh, clean, relevant to what we needed and more. The site was spotless, groundsman were always ensuring the areas were smart.There are 2 pools, the quieter one was nearest our room so we tended to stay there, perfect, never unable to find a sunbed, people were not 'bagging' loungers from 7am. Housekeeping were very effective but not intrusive, nice touches of chocolates, fruit during the stay was really nice.Everything you'd expect from a 5* hotel. Sport facilities were available, we played tennis. nice breeze where it's situated.. There an indoor gym which looked well equipped and an indoor pool - there were saunas but I never got that far - also on site beauty/massage. The hotel is 20 paces to the beach, it's not private and you have to pay for the use of the sunbeds for the day ~ €13.75 for 2 for the day - the sea is great, really warm and shallow for a long way out so perfect for children, there are life guards around too. The food is amazing, we were half board, a huge breakfast and evening meal, you will want for nothing, quality and variety was all there. There is evening entertainment from singing to dancers and acrobats, if it's your thing. No much in the neighbourhood apart from the Spar shop and couple of restaurants which were poor. Great stay - go, you'll love it.

Rooms clean and fresh and well equipt with everything we required Only complaint was sun loungers on the beach cost 13.75 euros a day which we thought should have reduced for people using the hotel .

Pleasantly surprised
Hotel was much better than anticipated. Rooms were roomy, clean and very comfortable bed. Maid service was excellent with champagne and chocolate covered strawberries as an added bonus. Lobby was very 60's looking so I was a bit apprehensive about the hotel but the room was great! The beach is also very nice and not too crowded as it was further on down the beach. Pool service excellent for drinks and the breakfast buffet overlooking the beach was excellent. Overall a very enjoyable stay and front desk staff were very nice and helpful. I would definitely stay at this property again.
