Apartamentos Parque Mar

We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful location. The gardens and pool areas are wonderful and very well maintained. It was apparent that many of the guests are returnees and I can see why. The location is a short walk to the Marina and there is a beach nearby and steps on the property to a cove for a sea swim which we loved.The staff and service were excellent too. I have scored a 4 star because our apartment was dated and uncomfortably hot. We mentioned this to the front desk and they happily rented us a couple of fans however I would expect fans to be included due to the heat. Top tips - book an air con apartment , take beach towels , rent a kettle ! Apart from this, the place is great.

Having just returned from this unbelievable tranquil development of privately owned apartments,we are now looking forward to visiting again in September.The only disappointment was the sad news that the management team of Maria Jose Blanco and her husband Gayan are leaving at the end of the season.Hopefully their replacement management team will be as efficient and friendly,although they will be a very hard act to follow,as they have served the operation faultlessly for 12 years. The reception team of Margalida and Sandra will still hopefully continue to provide the excellent service they provide in supporting whoever takes over. The place is like our second home and always return feeling refreshed and batteries recharged.If you're looking for a peaceful relaxing break in a beautiful setting this is an unbeatable place,not commercialised but second to none for mature people to enjoy.

Self catering, 2 bedroom villa with 2 adults and 2 teenagers. Hotel: Lots of space with grassed areas and sunbeds. The main pool is surrounded by gardens and is a good size with a couple of lanes for swimming, there’s an adults only pool and both of these are salt water (or semi salt as it’s not as salty as the sea). There is also a tiny, covered baby pool. We did not venture into the restaurant or use the bar, both of these are SHUT all day/night on a Saturday. The pools remain open so it was lovely and quiet. Villa: Fabulous size! We stayed in a two bedroom villa and there was a double bed in each bedroom (would have been better with two single beds in one bedroom as one of my boys had to sleep downstairs on the sofa rather than share with his brother!). The beds were comfortable and there are blankets if it dropped cold, but a couple of extra pillows would have been nice! We appreciated the two bathrooms, two great showers and two hairdryers. Good sized and well-equipped kitchen, no kettle so we used a pan to boil water for hot drinks. We hired a toaster (20E deposit that you get back). Two balconies and a terrace, though NO furniture on the balconies meant we couldn’t sit out, which was a shame…. There was a 6 person table/chairs on the terrace though and an airer for drying clothes. Wifi in each villa. The hotel reception is open 24hrs and the staff were very helpful and courteous. The hotel is situated away from the main resort of Cala d’Or and is a 10/12 minute walk to the Marina, which is beautiful and there are bars and restaurants. Then another 10 minutes to Cala d’Or shops and restaurants and a bit further to Cala Gran beach. Cala Petita beach is closer to the hotel and very picturesque and good for snorkelling. This fantastic hotel is situated on a rocky outcrop that falls into the choppy, deep sea. The rocks are interesting, and you can walk down the steps to look at the sea and take some photos. There is even a ladder to access the deep sea (for strong swimmers and the brave only!). *Though I would NOT recommend this hotel to families with small children who run off / wander off as the rocky outcrop is easily accessible. It only takes 1 minute from the back veranda of the villas or from the pools or play area and you are stood on the rocks looking down to the deep sea. It is not fenced off or gated and could be a hazard to small, unattended, wandering children. I think this is why it was mainly adult couples or families with older children and there were very few small children and NONE were running around and making noise – WHICH WAS PERFECT FOR OUR FAMILY! The hotel is so peaceful and quiet which is a fabulous. We stayed at the end of May so the weather was lovely and warm during the day and cooler on an evening so we did not require air conditioning, which is a good job as there wasn’t any! The villa doors are designed so you can open them fully or open them on a slant to only let cool air in and the sea breeze air is lov

Having returned from our second visit this year,once again absolutely brilliant time,in the capable hands of the management team of Maria and Gayan. The complex iin Cal a Egos is second to none, and we feel like it's our second home.We do go to other places ,mainland Spain and the Canary islands in particular but our Special ! hooray place is the tranquil park on the sea ( Parque Mar ). Nothing is to much trouble for the staff,including Margalida and Sandra on reception.The cleaning and maintenance staff are superb,the grounds are immaculate. Spending time in the heated swimming pool overlooking the Mediterranean sea ,watching the boats pass by is a totally relaxing experience.The restaurant both buffet and ala carte is great value, with a variety of fresh fruits and pastries together with a fabulous selection of dresses ,as well as themed evenings featuring menu choices from around the world.All the apartments are privately owned ,so it's far removed from the hotel bedroom experience and indeed the different types of properties make it stand out from a standard aparthotel type of venue.We can't wait to return next year ,June is already booked and September is a matter of organising the flights before confirming. Tranquil,relaxing way to recharge your batteries,and great value ,First Class !

Really nice stay. Well located and staff is lovely.

Superb place for a quiet unexpectedly peaceful stay in a well manicured and efficiently run set of villa and apartments. The staff are professional and friendly, the service is good and not over bearing. The apartment grounds are well maintained and the views of the Mediterranean are quality. The village is close with decent shops, good bars and restaurants. The bus connections to Parma and the local region are good value. I will not hesitate to returning to Parque Mar in the future
