Globales Samoa in Cales de Mallorca

Efficient check in, arrived for lunch, handy luggage room for a short period prior to rooms ready. Rooms were clean and spacious, was nice to have a bath shower option, we did have a sandy day but rooms were refreshed daily, towel changes on request (in the bath or hung) We had mixed weather so the air con and balcony options were great for comfortable temperatures. Pool area was clean and accessible, the 2 daily lifeguards were very attentive, communicated well and prioritised safe fun. Lee was outstanding, he learned quickly folks swim ability and set challenges for my son with others entertaining him for hours and inspiring him towards his job. Beach was a short walk, a lovely cove with great waves, again felt safe with clear lifeguard post roped off areas. We did notice that some left rubbish or buried it, this was unfortunate, bins were clearly nearby. A handy kiosk that accepted card and cash (really thankful for cash preferred) Toilets were not always open per their timetable but hotel near by. On our last day we had a couple of nips (nibbles) at our 1 mosquito bite each, we have to assume this was hungry sea bream, or so google suggest? Cliff top walks, I found a circuit from the hotel through town & back to hotel, it was fairly signposted. These were safe with the odd bench for a bit relaxing sea views. Town has lots of shops with a market type feel walking through one to another, good for the odd bit souvenir and both the animal and central mini golf set ups were great. Food, for a fussy eater there was choice, drinks accessible, and so nice to have soup options, We ate well. Snackbar options of hotdogs and cakes were readily available. Although not big eaters we did eat and drink well. Dress in the restaurant was casual but not swimwear, fair. Check out was a little bit of. faff, we requested late check out but wasn’t available in this instance, however we could book a shower space with fresh towels. At our time however there was many checking in and reception was busy. Carting from the luggage room to broken showers was a bit of a juggle, id know now to be a little more organised with packing. Shower key returned and onto a doorstop transfer. I think this was just unlucky with timings as reception were often relatively calm. Only 2 lifts caused a bottle neck at periods but stairs were clean clear and achievable. Would return to this relaxing space, calm and clean. Thanks team for a great October break with mixed weather.

What an amazing holiday we have had staying here. Stunning views, friendly staff. Really clean hotel. Rooms made up daily. The beach is spectacular. Feeding fish in clear water. The pool was very cold but my son loved it. Food was tasty. Lots of choices but slightly repetitive. Would highly recommend staying here

Fantastic for the price. Definitely feels better than a 3* hotel. Food was lovely. Good variety. Typically warm and plenty for fussier eaters. The snack bar is brilliant. Often serving bacon/sausages/fries shortly after breakfast so I typically skipped breakfast to have at the snack bar instead. Snack bar also serves freshly made pizza/burgers/hotdogs/fries all afternoon too with deserts like Churros around 4pm. Room was nice. Good size. Bed was comfortable. Aircon in the room made it very comfortable. My room was on the first floor at the front of the hotel which faces the shopping centre and also a club. The music is rather loud however it’s only open until 1am and they play some fantastic music so certainly no complaint about that. Bar was pretty good. Drinks have some variety. I typically only drank the cocktails. Plenty of alcohol! I’d argue maybe too strong I sometimes had to ask for more mixer or I would be passed out on the sun loungers getting sun burnt. Staff were great but special mention to the animation team! I mean they couldn’t get any better! They’re so energetic, always so happy and polite. They engage with everyone and the shows are fantastic. Certainly made me feel included and welcomed as a solo traveller. The shows 21:30-23:00 are brilliant but they also work through the day doing plenty of activities in the pool like water polo and things like darts and other activities which are good fun. Would definitely visit again especially if the animation team are the same people. They really make the holiday

Just returned from my first solo break having stayed at the Globales Samoa. The hotel ========== The hotel itself is lovely. Everywhere is clean and well looked after. The staff were all lovely. Ideally located a short five min walk from the gorgeous beach. The room ========== I arrived late at night and couldn’t see my view, and thought I’d been given a duff room at the front of the hotel. I needn’t have worried, the view was stunning. The first morning opening the curtains to see the sunrise was gorgeous. Now, the room that I saw on the Jet2 website and what I got are worlds apart. My room was a little tired, none of the modern features I saw online - but for a base it was fine. It was clean, for the most part, besides lots of little hairs on the covers. The bathroom was a good size, and the shower pressure excellent. The food ========= I’d read quite a few reviews after I’d booked but before I went about the hotel not catering for ‘British guests’. As a Brit, I can tell you there was something there for me each meal. I’m not a massive fan of buffet style places, but like I said, could always find something to make a meal - albeit the ‘hot’ food was ambient at any time. The snack bar for a late lunch or early tea was lovely. Because it was popular, the food was always being prepared and you knew it was fresh. The pizza was really nice. Any negatives? ================ Being at the front of the hotel, there is a pub/club across the road that pumps out music every night from about 19:00 - 01:30. The bass was quite something at some points. Music to suit everyone’s tastes though haha - props to the DJ. The first night I thought it would be too much for me, but I soon got used to it. Overall ======== As others have said, you get what you pay for. I was very happy with my stay and would return for another short break.

My family and I were satisfied. Rooms clean, common areas clean, very nice staff, lots of delicious food to choose from. We will definitely be back next year.

Yes it is mainly French people there but we managed to find 2 English families. This was my first holiday alone with my 8yr old and I was nervous but it was possibly one of the best holidays I've had. We had no issues with food, even my fussy child found something and was willing to try new things. I felt comfortable walking around the shopping area, staff were all friendly and welcoming, rooms were lovely, think we were in 301. Beach was 5 mins out of the back of the hotel and was gorgeous if a little crowded, my daughter doesn't like the beach but by the end of our holiday was asking to go so she could watch the fish with her new snorkel. Could always find a sunbed no matter the time. I'd take the bad reviews with a pinch of salt, if you can make your own entertainment or just join in no matter the language you will a great time. I'd be happy to return but are unfortunately fully booked when I've looked.

We arrived at the hotel at 3am after a problematic start to the holiday (Taxi to Airport!) and were quickly checked in and advised a cold buffet was available to us in the dining room. The room was on the 5th floor and was very clean and spacious and whilst we didn't realise it at the time had the most stunning view overlooking the pool, sea and outdoor entertainment area. The hotel is very orientated towards the French and Polish as they make up at least 80% of guests and we struggled to hear many English voices in the hotel, having said that the entertainment team work so hard (Benjamin is an absolute star!) that even though you don't understand a lot of what is being said you can't help but be swept along by the atmosphere. The breakfast is great and we found something to eat for everyone (group of 6 adults) but the selection again is geared towards other nationalities so you have to be a little adventurous and we didn't go hungry, if you have children I would imagine you wouldn't be so lucky. This is a beautiful location, not crowded, and the most relaxing resort I have stayed in, in Mallorca, if you are wanting hustle and bustle this is t the place for you as whilst there are bars and restaurants it definitely isn't Blackpool abroad, it's such a peaceful and chilled location. No issues getting sunbeds, somedays there was availability even mid day which I haven't had before. Overall cannot fault the hotel, location and certainly not the staff, if you are prepared for the lack of English, being a less busy resort and want to have a relaxing holiday then I would recommend without hesitation. This is the perfect place to recharge and relax and I enjoyed it a lot and would say keep an open mind and make the most of it.

We've just spent a week at this hotel. Beautiful and clean, overlooking the sea.
Staff were all so friendly. The reception staff had knowledge of buses to get to locations and had a bus time table printed off and gave recommendations.
The entertainment staff were first class. So many activities throughout the day. So fun and inclusive. Many of the staff being multilingual!
The evening entertainment was brilliant and different every night.
The restaurant food had a theme each night and plenty of variety.
The snack bar was great for the kids, producing fresh pizza all day with plenty of fresh fruit.
The bar had a huge selection for all inclusive and we never had to queue.
A wonderful week spent in a beautiful location on a great hotel.
