Stayed at the Hotel Eulalia for a week with my wife and two daughters aged 15 and 12 - 6th to the 13th August.
Very pleased with the hotel in general, clean and tidy reception area with air conditioning that was bliss.
The rooms have air conditioning, and are cleaned every other day. They were basic but did not feel cramped at all.
It was about a 10-15 min walk to the strip which was very lively.
Turn left at the hotel and the Santa Eulalia beach was great,also about 10 min walk but not as steep a hill as we expected after reading other reviews.

My family and I visited the hotel in June.
I found it to be clean, tidy and spacious. There was two adults, 1 child and a baby in a studio but we never found it cramped.
The staff are very nice, and helpful.
The world cup was on so it was a really good atmosphere in the bar.
The hotel/Aprt pool is lovely, kids had a great time. Kids club was good!
If I had one critisim it would be that the hotel/aprt is a bit on a walk to the strip.
The supermarket is about five minutes away, but is really reasonable.
Overall these Apartments are great value for money, not the best location I have stayed in, however I would return, no problem and recommend for a cheap break.

Room was big enough but bare minimum.
Clean but smelt of damp kitchen area. Lots of very hot water for bath, but shower not really any good.
Beds good and rooms now have air conditioning. Settee uncomfortable. Two rings to cook on was tedious and no microwave etc. Okay view at pool side.
When it rains it drips onto air conditioning unit outside on balcony and is irritating. Didn't find reception staff that friendly but reasonable.
A bit concerned about safety though, especially as hot water too hot sometimes especially with children, and rugs and mats have no anti slip on them, couple this with tiles that haven't got anti slip surface and get wet and it is a concern.
Be careful. Reasonably placed but must be okay walking, or taxi quite cheap.

Had some concerns after reading mixed reviews. Not luxurious but found it to be clean, tidy and well maintained.
Kitchen facilities basic but who wants to cook.
Lifts took in turns to break down but no big deal unless you were lugging cases.
Bar expensive and entertainment basic but loads of alternatives outside.
No problems with sun beds, either round pool or in the garden area.
Location good - 10 mins gentle stroll to the left gets you to very nice local beach. A few mins stroll to right gets you to all the bars and restaurants you need. About 1.5 miles from centre of old town but the little road train runs every 20 mins at E3 for a day ticket.

We have just spent two enjoyable weeks at the Santa Eulalia and wouldn't hesitate to return.
We had a bright, airy and clean room to the rear of the hotel and so had no noise prblems. Everything needed seemed to be within 10 mins walk. Old Town about E4.00 in taxi.
We didn't find the hotel bar overly expensive as used to paying through the nose for drink in Dublin anyway. It is, however, cheaper to use bars in surrounding area. Try "Coyote Bar" for 1.5 litre jug of local beer(Superbock)@ E3.50.
Staff in hotel were very pleasant and had absolutely no problems dealing with children. We found that we got what we paid for with this holiday.

My fist impressions of the hotel were as most people noted, it could do with a lick of paint! The foyer and the bar area had obviously just been re-decorated and were of a good standard. Our room, ( a one bed apartment) was very spacious, the bathroom was quite new, but the kitchenette was very very basic, i think it is wrong that this accommadation is described as self catering. It consisted of a dirty fridge and two electric rings, nothing more. If you wanted a toaster you had to hire one for 6 euros which i think is scandalous. Needless to say we ate out all the time, which in fairness was our plan anyway but it would have been nice to have the option. The maid service also left a lot to be desired, they came to our room approx 4 times out of 7 but all they do is make beds and empty bins. The linen and towels weren't changed the whole time we were there!! The corridors in the hotel were also dirty, i noted the same stain on the floor over a period of 3 days.
The location of the hotel was perfect for us, within walking distance of the beach and the strip but not right on top of it, ideal for a family with young children.
I can't really comment on the entertainment in the hotel as we went elsewhere at night, the bar prices were quite expensive.
The pool area was nice but unfortunately we never got to sit around it because people got up at the crack of dawn to lay claim to a sun bed with their towels, it actually says in the foyer that this wasn't allowed but nobody ever did anything about it.

Hotel needs considerable amount of money spent on it. No use for self-catering as facilities basic.
Located close to Santa Eulalia beach, much better than Praia d'Oura beach, but up hill on way back! Very close to numerous bars/restaurants of good standard.
Bar very expensive but bar staff very good.
Other staff could be hit or miss.
Big screen in bar good for soccer matches but Coyote bar 50 yards up is much cheaper with same big screen.
Kids club was excellent & this excused most of the shortcomings.
Would not return unless totally refurbished & price reduced drastically

We booked this holiday as a last minute break and thought it was fantastic. The room was bright and airy, the staff were always friendly and we even managed to cook a full fry up in the kitchen!
My 8 year old son loved the grass area to the left of the pool, where he could play football and I was happy knowing he was safe and could not go out to the road.
We would be more than happy to visit this complex again!
