Very clean hotel and rooms. Rooms cleaned 3-4 times the week we stayed.
Pool and other hotel areas cleaned every day. From the balcony you can see pool the town below and the sea.
You have to go down several flights of stairs to get to the commercial centre below and then you can walk through the park to the sea front. It is a bit noisy as you can hear and even watch the entertainment downstairs from your balcony.
Staff helpful and friendly.
Would not visit hotel again as would stay in another resort.

Just arrived back from a weeks stay at the Cala dor, we found that it deserves more than the two star it's been given.
The apartments were very clean and spacious, would definitely benefit from having air con fitted, as it was averaging 32 degrees in November.
Didn't, eat a great deal in the hotel just the odd snack but even those were good. Shame about the 197 steps, didn't bother us too much as we used to walk down to the centre, and for 2 euros we'd get a taxi back up.
Hotel staff very friendly, entertainment was good, the noise from the centre below did go on a bit, but as the bedroom was at the back of the apartment it didn't bother us.
This was our first holiday in 22 years on our own(without the kids!)and we would definitely go back, would recommend this hotel.

The Cala D`or apartment building is an older building but has had some refurbishment. Rooms are all one bedroom with kids sleeping on couch. There is the usual kettle, microwave etc.
It is very clean and tidy and every one of the staff will go out of there way to help you. The noise is the biggest factor, the apartments don't have air con and at night it isn't possible to leave doors or windows open because of the noise coming from the shopping centre below, which when we were there went a bit quieter about 3.30am.
The walls in the apartments are paper thin and you can here next door having a conversation, which proved a little bit embarrassing for us explaining to our young son what the strange noises were coming out of next door ( Honeymoon couple !!!)
The apartments are in a handy position for everything but to get down to centre you have to scale an awful lot of steps or walk round by the road. The entertainment in the apts is basic the usual karaoke - bingo - local singers etc... But as everybody else in these reviews says Dave the entertainer is excellent with kids of all ages.
The only downside to the entertainment was when it finished 1230 - 100 am the kids tended to roam around the apartment blocks unsupervised making lots of noise waking up the younger children and adults staying there and on a couple of occasions were asked to keep the the noise down by other people staying there they were given a lot of abuse.
I wouldn`t recommend staying here for anyone without kids or if you have younger ones looking for a quieter holiday.

Had a brill time here at the cala dor.
Arrived here mid afternoon, with everyone very excited. Unpacked and straight in the pool.
Don't usually go to welcome meetings, but found this informative, as Rixy the rep, did very well.
Make sure you do go on at least one excursion, Sioux city is fab, family enjoyed it, you may get the excursions cheaper, but personally, can you really be bothered looking around for cheaper ones when your on a stress free holiday.
Rixy very easy to talk to and always around when we needed him.
Dave the rave was ace, although he did cheat at water polo, he was fantastic with the kids and made our 2 weeks stay must enjoyable.
Reception staff, cleaners and bar staff all worked hard and I will defo be back next year.
Thanks to everyone.
See you soon.

Stayed at the Cala Dor staff very helpful plenty of fresh towels.
Only problem was all the steps but taxis cheap enough 2 eurors usually.
Best places to eat would recommend San Miguels had to queue some nights but worth it. About 30 to 35 eurors for 4 of us with drinks, Catarmaran trip is worth it all food and as much as you can drink included in price. Dave was good with the kids and provided entertainment for adults, walter polo, pool etc.
Would definitely go back again

The Apartments were clean and tidy.
The Bar staff very friendly and polite.
Prices in Apartment were reasonable.
A bit too many steps for our liking, to get to the town, but taxi's only 2 euros back up.
Dave was awsome, great with the kids (Shannon, ceejay & Morgan)thanks, and great with the adults, killer pool in the afternoon for the kids, then killer pool for the adults followed by water polo.
Entertainment in the evening was great, kids dancing, bingo followed by the acts. (excellent)

Great hotel - planning our trip for next year now. Manuel and Mr Burns were great on receptioon and behind the Bar - couldn't do enough and very funny.
Only issue was Dave the entertainer - he needs to get back into this country as the heat is getting to him - he believes that Middlesborough are a top club.
Entertainment great and enjoyed the waterpolo despite the cheating and Dave's cheating.
Look forward to going back again next year.
Thomsons - were rubbish and as for the rep I can honestly say a DVD confirfming the excusions and an order form at reception would have doen the same job as Rixy.
The one time he was needed when one guy at the hotel got injured he advised "Im on my day off tomorrow so I hope you get things sorted by the time I get back" luckily Dave stepped in and got things sorted. We were also delayed 12 hours on our return flight.
Shows how good the hotel and staff are as even after that we are still going back, pitty we can't book through someone else though.

On arrival the Cala D'or was impressive in its location, appearance and its cleanliness which was a super start. A very warm welcome was given by the reception staff that also opened up the shop for us at 1.30 am for milk!
The apartment inside was roomy and extremely clean (I am an obsessive nit picker regarding cleanliness) and remained so throughout the holidays as the cleaning team were very thorough on daily visits.
The views from my balcony which was a good size were fantastic overlooking the pool with the harbor in view.
I found all staff to be very polite and helpful in the reception and bar area.
Entertainment was good, they have some very good acts on to suit all tastes.
The Cala D'or owes much of its success to its staff - in particular Dave who is the sole entertainments manager - he was absolutely first class, genius with the kids and very patient! A genuinely helpful guy and tries to involve all in the daily activities he arranges without any pressure. He kept everyone smiling - children and adults alike and just makes everyone
