Just returned from our 5th stay here, so some way to go to compete with other returners who have 30 years under their belts. We asked by email for the same room in Reception block as previously and our request was met. The hotel has had a bit of a makeover since last year with white marble stairs, floors and glass panelling. The old sunbed by the dining room has gone which is a shame. We thought it was a bit stark and needed some softening and colour. The dining room also has been changed. Chefs all on show now cooking most of the food there and bar waiters also working in there, meeting and greeting. We have had excellent food in the past, and enjoyed most of it this time, especially the fish. Some things like turkey skewers were awful, as was lamb shoulder, and roast beef. Why did they not taste like turkey, lamb and beef? The breakfasts were excellent. Bacon now cooked by chef and well done, not just on the ends in a tray! Plenty of choice of fruit, cereals and pastries. We ate far more than was good for us! The meal times have been extended with breakfast served until 10.30, dinner from 6.45 - 9.15 pm. The entertainment at night was good, some much better than others. The Motown group were outstanding, the opera- singing comedian was entertaining and certainly worked hard for 2 hours. Others not so good. We wish HCB would do something about guests from other hotels being allowed in to the entertainment before us residents have finished dinner. It makes it difficult if not impossible to get a seat, and we saw residents having to go elsewhere. If anyone is wondering about the new apartment block overlooking the pool area, this is still unfinished and is now at 4th floor level. I wouldn't think it would be occupied this season. It doesn't affect sunbathing as it is on the east side so the sun is moving round to the west. We didn't try the new spa and indoor which is below the pool bar. Last year I gave my review 5 stars as I couldn't fault HCB. This year I think the points mentioned warrant 4 stars. Even so we love Cala Bona and would return there and to HCB in a heartbeat.
