This is our first visit to this superb hotel, and we made a great choice! Our booking with Jet2 holidays was for a  superior seaview room, we emailed and requested a room on a high floor and hey presto that's exactly what we were allocated - couldn't be happier! Our room on the 5th floor is a delight. It's comfortable, spotlessly clean, well maintained and we lack nothing. The weather has been mixed during our week long stay, so there was never a problem finding a vacant sunlounger - again, very comfortable, well positioned and being off season, so peaceful. The breakfasts are delicious, so much choice, tasty ingredients and expertly prepared - it was so pleasant and relaxing to enjoy our meal while admiring the stunning outside seaview. Top marks to all hotel staff, they are unfailingly helpful, friendly, and courteous. Special mention to the always smiling Xus. Her omelettes are the best! To the two lovelies, Aurora and Nuria, in the restaurant, thanks for brightening our day. Our appreciation to Charro, the lady who meticulously took care of our room. We leave tomorrow with happy memories of the Barceló Albatros Our thanks to all for helping to make our stay so comfortable and enjoyable.

“The best buffet breakfast”

Very good location, wide selection of products on the buffet breakfast and a great service.I would highly recommend that hotel to those who are seeking a peaceful stay out of the summer season. Thank you Madelein from the Front Office - your hospitality made our stay memorable! :)

“Great location and solid Barceló offering”

I’ll start by saying I am a big fan of Barcelo hotels and have had some amazing experiences at a number of hotels but may have been a little spoilt by my recent royal level experiences.

I’ll start by saying I am a big fan of Barcelo hotels and have had some amazing experiences at a number of hotels but may have been a little spoilt by my recent royal level experiences. Check in and out was efficient and friendly. Every member of staff I came across was friendly and helpful. We booked a side sea view room, as this was all that was available, I did email the hotel to see if we could upgrade before arrival but never received a response. When we checked in we were able to upgrade to a full sea view as I was disappointed by the room allocated. Breakfast was excellent and being able to have this on the terrace was lovely. Dinner was average, felt there could have been more authentic cuisine, it just didn’t hit the mark for me. It felt a little old fashioned, canteen like, bright lighting, old furniture etc. a little modernisation, lower lighting, some low level music would help. The pool bar and restaurant during the day was lovely but the only offering in the evening which was empty and lacked atmosphere, no music or entertainment. Pool area was pleasant no music which I like. The pool is hot heated so difficult to use this time of year. The gym offering was poor, 2 main pieces of equipment were broken for my entire stay and never fixed despite reporting to reception twice. I would return for a short break bed and breakfast maybe at a busier time of year

Enjoyable out-of-season break at this lovely hotel at the end of February 2024. The hotel is in the centre of the small town of Illetas but is situated right on the coast with amazing views across the bay towards Palma. There is a bus stop right outside with a regular service into the centre of Palma for only €2. Most of the local shops and bars remain closed until late March/April but there is a local Spar supermarket and the Rose Mallow bar/restaurant over the road is excellent. We had a spacious, light & airy corner junior suite on the 5th floor with views of the sea. Comfortable bed, two sofas and powerful shower with all the amenities. The staff were all very helpful and friendly, especially Vera on the front desk. Service in both the main restaurant and two bars was faultless. Delicious, plentiful and varied breakfast buffet. The only reason for the 4* review was the disappointing state of the spa. As the main pool was closed, we hoped that we would be able to use the spa to relax & enjoy. However, the steps leading down were broken & dangerous. The spa itself was shabby and well overdue for refurbishment. We reported our feedback to the holiday company rep who has escalated it further. Despite the spa, we had a great week and would recommend this hotel for a relaxing stay.
