Alua Suites las Rocas

Just returned from a week at the Alua Suites and had a wonderful time with our five year old. The location is spectacular, with incredible views of the ocean, and plenty of amenities and beaches nearby. A great base if you want to explore the island, but equally enough to keep families occupied on site. We did day trips over to Deia and Valdemossa as well as the Saturday market at Satanyi, all of which were incredible and easy if you have a car. We thought the accomodation was good, if a little tired around the edges, but the lack of adequate air conditioning was a big problem (not ideal, being pregnant!). However, the staff arranged for fans in our room which definitely helped make sleeping easier. For a resort at the top end of the market, I wouldn't expect to struggle for good air conditioning, honestly. I really hope this is rectified some time soon! This aside, we loved the experience. The pools were fantastic (we especially loved the small one across the road from the main site) and the kids entertainment was fantastic. Our little girl absolutely loved the Animators and danced her socks off at the minidisco each evening. Truly magical! Huge shout out to Ricky and the girls - you are all amazing. The food was fantastic, great selection and really loved the fact that each evening had a theme. Missing Alua Suites already and can't wait to return one day!

Staff were brilliant. Room was very tired and in need of refurbishment. The food choice was not great. Queuing for a lengthy time to get a simple drink or just to get tokens back was very annoying.
