Review title: "Gran Santa Ponsa Highly Recommended"
Travel date: August 2008
Just returned from one week in the Gran Santa Ponsa Apartments yesterday. Two adults, child and Gran aged 80 (she enjoyed every minute). Apartments are nice, staff are exceptional and night time entertainment really good. The hypnotist show was the funniest thing I have ever seen. All around, fantastic and highly recommended.

The Gran Santa Ponsa Apartments were fantastic. Very good staff - always ready to help. Apartments very clean and spacious.

Lots of entertainment for both adults and children. Definitely will go back next year and take all the family. Places to eat are fantastic. Great entertainment in the square every night.

Review title: "Best Place Ever!"
Travel date: June 2008
Went here to stay with me Ma, Grandad, two sisters and three brothers. We had to get two apartments because we have a big family. This was no problem as they gave us the apartments right next door to each other and gave me Ma an extra key to each door, so she could watch the boys.

Although it was not a great place for teenagers, it was still very good. The apartments themselves were brilliant for me Ma and the smaller kids.

Mary the entertainer is the best thing since sliced bread - she really took the time to ensure that me Ma, as well as the kids, enjoyed her time there. Nothing we asked for was any trouble and we even won the bingo one night!

The only thing was I felt that the apartments were a little too far away, but that's what me Ma loved about them?

We ate there a few times and the food was not bad and the cleaners were great - they came in nearly everyday. I was delighted because I didn't have to clean. Bar staff are all mental but great craic!

I would recommend this place to anyone as we were in the States last year and the kids taught that Santa Ponsa was better! Thank you Gran Santa Ponsa Apartments and thank you Mary for giving us the best holiday. It really was the holiday of a lifetime. It was great to see me Ma unwind and relax and enjoying herself because with four smaller ones and two teenage girls, I think she kind of needed it.

Anyone reading this and have any doubts, just go - you wont regret it.

Went to for a week in October 2007 and found it a fine place to stay. Santa Ponsa itself was a bit quiet for the time of year, but the apartments were clean and tidy, although living area a bit small for a family of four. Staff all very pleasant and of course big respect for Mary, the children's entertainer and cook expert, amongst other things. All round a good week at the Gran Santa Ponsa.

Travel date: July 2007
When we arrived our room was not ready, which meant we had to wait in the lobby for three hours until we could check our luggage in.

The drink in the pool bar is all watered down. If you stay up late enough you will see them fill up the Smirnoff bottles with goodness knows what.

Our room was OK if you could stand the smell of cats' urine. When we complained we were told the cats were needed to keep the giant rats away.

On check out we found out that the hotel had misplaced my passport which they kept on check in.

I would definitely recommend going there!

Just got back from two wonderful weeks at the Gran Santa Ponsa. The resort was ace. The apartments were immaculate, the staff fantastic. Mary the entertainer was brilliant, my daughter loved her. Lifeguard around the pool all day.

The only thing I didn't like was the fact that it had easy access to main road at back of the apartments so any one could walk in, which they did, but the lifeguard quickly removed them. Can't wait to go back next year. Do not book with First Choice. Go see 'Pirates', it's fantastic. See you all next year.

I'm just home from there a day and already am missing it so much. This resort was just brilliant. I couldn't have asked for a better holiday. Mary the entertainer was brilliant at night as well. The bar staff was brilliant, not too mention the good looking one, Jose - I think that's his name! He was really really nice and also funny! So I would just like too thank you so much for this holiday and will see you all next year!

Really nice staff! Very helpful, they even knocked some money off excursion tickets for us! The rooms were slightly cold at night and the windows are very thin so you could hear all the mopeds going past, but that's the only fault. Had a lovely pool there. Was a bit cold but it was okay once you braved it. Staff are available 24 hours a day. I even miss the flowery chairs!

The staff are very friendly. Was my second time here but we had our little girl who was 11 months travelling. The food was fantastic, especially when you had a severe hangover and it was great to have it open at 11, especially if you are Irish like me. Going back in July next year. Can't wait.

I thought Gran Santa Ponsa was great. I really enjoyed my stay. I admired the entertainer Mary as she was on her own and really inspired me.

I am going back again this year although instead of there only being three of us, there will be 15 and I can't wait.

There is a good supermarket right across the roads and shop just down the road. The pool is amazing, really refreshing, it's not freezing but it's not hot so it's fine. I can't wait to go back.

Our stay at the Gran Santa Ponsa was for one week only in that time the air conditioning broke down. Being peak season, it was really hot. We told the reception who got the engineer out but still nothing was done. For three nights we had no air conditioning although the reception staff were very good and polite. They gave us some fans but this wasn't enough.

The hotel itself was really clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The pool was lovely and always clean, although you had to rise early to get a sun bed. The beach and shops are just a stroll away with the restaurants and cafes. There is a supermarket just across the road. I won't let the air conditioning stop me from going back again as this is a really child friendly hotel.

The Gran Santa Ponsa apartments are really great. We just arrived back today and want you to know what a nice place it is to stay at. The apartments are spotless. The pool is fantastic. There is entertainment on every night, free. Life guards to keep on eye on the kids in the pool. Supermarkets close by for your shopping, beach just down the street. I could go on. It's a fantastic place and we shall be taking our four grandkids there next year. Top banana!

Gran Santa Ponsa is really hard to beat. Great for all ages. My grandma 72, sister 12, my son seven and my self 26 all had a great time. The staff were so friendly. The children were really looked after with the highest standard of childcare you could ever dream of.

When we arrived at the hotel we realised we had left one of our suit cases at the airport. Within minutes one of the staff offered a taxi to take us back to get our suitcase and they drove us back to Palma to get it. Can't wait to go back this year – 7th August can't come soon enough. Special thanks to Mary.

A last minute holiday in a fairly quiet location is what we wanted. What we got was exactly that. The apartments were spotless and the towels were changed daily along with the apartment being cleaned! The pool and surrounding areas were spotless too. A lifeguard who was on the ball and clearly visible was a real bonus for those who had children with them.

The staff were wonderful - ever present, cheerful and extremely helpful with regards to any questions you may have, top marks to them all!

This hotel is lovely and is very safe to be in. Has great staff like Mary, the kiddies' club leader. I would recommend this hotel to everyone to stay in as it has great entertainment for the younger people and older people. The staff are a pleasure to talk to and are very kind to people. I would rate this hotel 10 out of 10 as it's wonderful to be in.

Gran Santa Ponsa Apartments were very comfortable and clean, with towels changed and rooms cleaned daily. Considering we took four young children, the apartments catered superbly for all our needs, with a great pool and a life guard who seemed to be on the ball all day.

The short walk to the beach and restaurants proved perfect for us. The holiday overall was brilliant and we will definitely be going back to the same apartments next year.

I am a tennager and I think that if you are parents bringing teens on holiday, this is the best poaaible place to bring them. I loved it! Apartments are gorgeous, reception area very comfortable to get away from the heat every now and then. It is close to everything you could possibly need, a wide range of shops and of course, close to Santa Ponsa's amazing pubs and clubs. So you can walk to anywhere you need to go! I fully recommend visiting the Grand Santa Ponsa apartments. The staff are wonderful and it also has some HOTTT lifeguards! I give it 10 out of 10 for families with both young kids and teenagers!
