This is the first time for us staying at an all inclusive family resort. The arrival at Palma airport was smooth, after hearing so many horror stories I was fearing the worst. The transfer was around an hour and we were the first drop off in the area. The coach was comfortable for the journey and the onboard air con was fantastic. Check in went well, good sign. The room, beds and towels were clean, again very happy. Sunbed wars, oh my days. Get up past 0800 and your on your **** on the tiles if you want to stay by the main pool. We waited for the splash park to open at 1000 and got beds and a parasol there without any fuss. The kids preffered the splash park so we stayed away from the main pool area. Food, if your serving or ex, the hot food I would say is worse than a bad day at the cookhouse. We stuck to lots of fruit, pastries, cereal, cold meats and cheeses at breakfast. Lunch/dinner plenty salad options, some small dishes made up of chickpeas/pasta were quite tasty. The snack menus of hotdogs and burgers were horrible. The beer is ok, Mahou is the brand. Wine is ok too after about 10 plastic cupfulls. Plenty cold water and softies to keep you hydrated. Get one of the cup caddies from amazon that fit 6 cups, makes life alot easier. The evening entertainment I though was quite good. Disco and a bit of dancing to start the evening off, always goes well. Bingo, I'm sure others love it. Good shows on later on at 2200, the entertainments team were dressed up as Disney characters and dancing to some well known songs. Seems a shame to have a good show aimed at kids on so late, some countries this is normal so no pleasing everyone. Now for some not so good points. I went down for breakfast on my own later in the morning, coffee down on the table and off I went for some scran. On my return, yep family at the table and waiter pouring away my coffee. It was really busy and I couldn't see any other tables, so I sat my ass down at the table and began eating. The attitude thrown at me by both parents impressed me, wow. There was a parent stopping others entering the toilet block while their kid went to the toilet, mate there's other kids that need the toilet. Hand across the door so no one could open the door. Like I say, this is the first resort like this we have been to so I'm unable to compare really, are they all like this? I would have given 3 stars but I'm knocking a star off for the attitudes of some.
