Insotel Club Maryland in Platja de Migjorn

This was our first time staying at Insotel ClubMaryland so we didn’t know what to expect from the mixed reviews we had read. But we came home after a week here having had a lovely time. Our room wasn’t ready when we arrived so we went to the relaxing pool bar and had some lunch. By this time the buffet lunch had closed but there was a menu for other snacks such as toasted sandwiches and pizzas. Soft drinks were help yourself and the barman would get alcohol or hot drinks. Once our room was ready we changed and made our way to the main salt water pool which was closer to our block (we were in 300s). It was mid afternoon now and we had to wait a while for a lounger to become available. There was music playing and activities happening in the pool. We also had a quick stroll on the beach. Our children (ages 10 and 6) preferred the look of the splash pool so we went here the next day and it was far quieter, and loungers were available nearly all day. It was a lovely pool and the children soon made friends with other children, so we spent most of our time here. Our room was comfortable, and very clean. We were slightly concerned about the lack of air con considering the temperatures reached 36 degrees during our stay, but we were only in the room to get ready for dinner and to sleep, the ceiling fans mostly sufficed. The one in the lounge wasn’t quite as good so we made use of a small folding fan we brought with us. Beds were comfortable. No configuration for a double for me and my husband. Bathroom was spotlessly clean, shower good. The room also had a fridge. We made use of the onsite supermarket to buy large bottles of water to keep in the fridge. Again, we had read in reviews that these bottles of water were in short supply if you went later than opening time but my husband first visited the shop just before its 8pm closing time and still managed a pack of 6 large bottles. The restaurant was busy, but we always managed to get a table outside on the terrace with not too long a wait. There was always a large selection of food at breakfast - both cooked and continental and fresh fruit. At evening dinner again a good selection of meals - pasta dishes, pizza and salad bar that remained largely unchanged each evening, and then a selection of dishes, either Mexican, Asian etc with many vegetarian options. A good selection of puddings also, although these seemed to run out more than anything else. The meat and fish being cooked fresh in the restaurant were always very popular and often had large queues. The buffet at the pool for lunchtime again had some dishes that were there all the time, such as burgers and pasta, and other things that would be alternated, like sausages and chicken nuggets. Again, salad bar, fresh fruit and bread rolls were available. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to visit the island. It’s a great base with car hire right outside. A very comfortable hotel with great pools for relaxing in the Spanish su

The trip was amazing in my opinion at least, the entertainers were engaging, bar, bartenders and buffet was amazing polite and waiters were friendly. I would 100% recommend Insotel club Maryland to anybody I know the daily entertainment is always a joy to watch even if it’s bad you’ll be guaranteed to have a laugh. Guests are also quite friendly too personally i made some friends i will take back home with me and met some special “people”. All in all i think Maryland deserves a higher rating than its give and i would love to go back again.

Had a great holiday here with my grown up daughter. We were a bit suspicious about the 3 star rating as we normally book 4/5 star. Apart from the room being a bit basic with no A/C, the rest of the hotel was pretty much what you expect from a 4/5 star hotel. The room was cleaned and towels replaced daily. The choice and quality of food at all the meal times was as good as what we’ve experienced at 4/5 star hotels. The staff were all friendly and helpful. My daughter was very impressed with the choice and quality of the All Inclusive drinks on offer at the bars.

No AC in accommodation but otherwise a lovely place, food excellent, staff great, wonderful situation (if you don’t have mobility issues) recommend. The two pool areas were great, at opposite ends of the hotel and quite different. Loved the top pool which was quiet and plenty of shade from pine trees. Main pool huge and deep with lots going on! It was too hot for us to do much so didn’t cycle but the hotel and the forest and the beach were a beautiful and relaxed setting.

Pros: absolutely beautiful resort, stunning beach, 2 pools and kids pool with slide. Always managed to get sun loungers. Excellent food. Polite staff, rooms cleaned daily. Cons (minor) no aircon but fans work great, walk up from main pool etc... steep but takes minutes if able bodied. Not much to do locally but we didn't care as the place was so lovely. We will be back this place is a gem don't let bad reviews put you off! Great price for what's on offer would highly recommend.

Excellent hotel beautiful setting rooms though dated are spotlessly clean food one the best all inclusive we've been to drinks all too brands and also good .Staff super friendly not overpowering and work exceptionally hard but always have a smile and time for a chat .loved the bars felt like your local very chilled and friendly

All good but there is no air conditioning and the fan in the room made an infernal noise for the rest all is well animation by 10 very good all the operators excellent location really
