Open all year, the Iberostar Cristina hotel is located in Playa de Palma, one of the best valued tourist areas of the Balearic archipelago, 5 minutes by car from the island's airport and just 10 minutes from the capital, which makes it an establishment specially designed to enjoy an entertaining, relaxing holiday, either for a family with children or with your partner or a group of friends. The 405 rooms at the Iberostar Cristina hotel have eliminated the use of single-use plastic and have opted for the use of materials that are more environmentally friendly as part of the Wave of Change initiative that also promotes responsible consumption of fish and boosts the coastal health of our seas and oceans. The Iberostar Cristina also offers a complete SPA Sensations to relax, with a heated pool, outdoor pool for adults and children, free Wi-Fi, a fitness room, quality cuisine that is nutritionally balanced, with natural, fresh, homemade products and multicultural options, that invite us to discover the flavours from around the world. To complete a perfect stay for our younger guests we have Monkey Club (from 4 to 7 years old), Dolphin Club (from 8 to 12 years old), Eagle Club (from 13 to 17 years old), professional shows, a playground, a restaurant with show cooking and 2 bars that will ensure you enjoy an unforgettable holiday.
Just returned from a wonderful holiday at the Iberostar Cristina with friends. We were delighted with our choice of hotel which was everything described on the website and more. Highlights were the very friendly and efficient customer service in all areas, the excellent evening entertainment and the quality and variety of food in the restaurant which was the best we’ve enjoyed in a hotel of its 4 star rating with many options freshly cooked to order before you. The hotel is well equipped and furnished with housekeeping staff constantly at work keeping communal areas clean and tidy. We took the ‘All Inclusive’ option but this would be more accurately described as ‘Full board with alcoholic drinks at meal times’ as at other times only non alcoholic drinks are included due to recent changes in local by laws. Also, this is very much a family oriented hotel with the bars closing at midnight but there are plenty of bars on adjacent streets and along the beachfront just a few minutes walk away. Location is ideal too as it is situated midway along the bay with easy walks along the pedestrianised promenade to Can Pastilla and Playa D’Arenal. We would definitely be happy to visit the Cristina again or any other Iberostar with confidence if this is indicative of their standards of service and would strongly recommend it. Thanks to all the staff of the Iberostar Cristina for a great holiday experience.

Satisfaction on 6178 acres. MLL Palma-Bay Club Resort hotel is located in a quiet area in the beach of Palma (Arenal), 350 metres from the beach and 5 minutes from the leisure and shopping centres. It also has a large children’s area and a great entertainment team, who with our staff help you enjoy an unforgettable holidays. The hotel has an area of 25.000 square metres with some restaurants, a snack bar and various bars as well as large gardens and 4 swimming pools. It’s only 8 km from the airport and 10 km from the capital of Mallorca, Palma. It’s a resort with more than 500 bedrooms, most of them with air-conditioning.
The beach is a 10 minute walk away, the buildings are simple but clean, it is a 3 star hotel but with many activities to do, you have green gardens for a nice walk, the buffets have variety, and if you have all inclusive you can only have three alcoholic drinks. My room was comfortable and simple, my friends' rooms too, some with balconies, some without. Overall the quality was quite superior for a three star hotel, the staff were fantastic and deserve all the stars.

Overall we had a lovely holiday. We have visited the Iberostar Selection Sabila in Tenerife so naturally use this as a point of comparison. We comment as follows:- Positives 1. Wonderful welcome by the Reception Team. Flawless check in. 2. Amazing room - we were upgraded to a suite with incredible views of the sea. The room was impeccably clean. 3. Food was pleasant and replenished frequently. 4. Pool area was great with all round sun and plenty of comfortable sun beds. The life guard also enforced the no floats policy which was good - for a 5* hotel you don’t expect huge lilos and rubber rings. 5. Great location - right on the beach and a ten minute taxi ride to the airport. Negatives 1. Food - as I have said above, the food was pleasant and inoffensive. However, it was quite repetitive and not much choice. 2. Staff - the staff were admittedly stretched, with one member saying that they had been asked to work the full 7 days in a row. 3. Around the pool you generally had to order drinks from your sun bed. If you went up to the bar, you were told that they would be served to you at your bed. More often than not, the drinks would take in excess of 20 minutes to arrive and that’s if they could find you! 4. The sunset bar was similar - bar service was not permitted so you had to wait to be served. Again, the service was slow. 5. The indoor bar shuts in the evening. This isn’t ideal when the only other bar is the sunset bar which is largely uncovered. One evening it was raining and naturally the only covered area at the sunset bar was busy and crowded. We found cover in the inside bar area and went to the sunset bar to order a drink, but as there is no bar service, my husband had to locate a very wet seat and wait to be served before bringing them down to me. This is not acceptable for a 5* hotel. 6. Similarly, at dinner you were offered wine or beer (due to the local rules). However, to actually get the attention of a member of staff to order the drinks was another matter. They were so stretched that when they did take your order, you would be forgotten about or served the wrong drinks. 7. I can only eat gluten free foods and the desserts on offer were very poor. Most mousses contained a biscuit topping and on some days the ice cream, which I can eat, was topped with a cone for decoration which contained gluten. Upon querying my options with the chef, I was offered fruit or rice pudding. However, some of the more appetising desserts could’ve been made gluten free quite easily. Overall, we had a lovely holiday but probably would not return. The hotel is unfortunately not a 5*.

We recently stayed here with our 9month old Oona as the staff were so lovely and friendly towards her. Our room was great and breakfast was beautiful, staff on breakfast went above and beyond for our little girl even making her puree banana. If you have the opportunity to stay here do it, the location is perfect and the hotel is beautiful. Special shoutout to the cleaner we had at the first end of our stay who would tidy Oona's toys and fold her bed blankets for us.

This hotel is a lovely oasis of calm in the busy resort of playa de palma. We stayed in 2 double rooms, me and my husband in one our daughters age 11 and 13 next door. The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. Shower was very nice too. Our room overlooked the pool and entertainment area so was some noise until about 10.30pm which didn't bother us. The restaurant was extremely well presented, the staff very efficient and attentive. The food was excellent, we made sure we arrived early for dinner though as it was busy later on. We also ate lunch in the pool snack bar which was also good and the staff there very friendly and helpful. Especially Antonia who greeted us when we first arrived starving and tired! The pool areas are immaculate, there were cleaners and pool attendant working everyday to ensure everything was of a very high standard. Plenty of comfortable loungers and parasols. The main pool was warm and is saline not chlorine. We also went in the quiet pool for a while when the main pool was busy. There was a small section for young children but I expect this does get full in high season. There was nothing I could fault about the hotel but one thing to keep in mind is that there were plenty of groups of young German men checking in. They weren't too much trouble but could be loud and sometimes a little rude after drinking all day and night!! They would sometimes wake us and our daughters up in the night arriving late and shouting in the hallways, banging on doors etc The beach nearby is beautiful but again very busy with Germans and a few English but worth it for a lovely dip in the med sea. There were a lot of traders there too which became annoying after a while. Playa de palma has numerous supermarkets and restaurants, bars and pharmacists if you needed. We visited palma aquarium which was great and in walking distance if you can bear the heat! We definitely enjoyed our stay and would recommend the Riu Bravo for a relaxing holiday.

We are currently staying at this lovely well situated Hotel. Sadly we leave tomorrow. The Hotel is in a great location, close to the beach, bars & restaurants. Superb location. The staff (especially David who I believe is in charge of the restaurant) are all professional, helpful and friendly. Our stay has been so enjoyable. Although we only ate breakfast - there was plenty of choice & something for everyone with dietary requirements. Palma is a few miles away & we walked there along the promenade. Public transport is excellent & we used bus network to travel to other parts of the island. Port Sellor is an easy bus journey. Coming back for a swim at the end of the day was delightful. Highly recommend this hotel. Our room was 16 on the ground floor. Had a view of the sea from the balcony. Overall a wonderful visit.

The perfect vacation for family with children! The room is spacious, the variety of food at the buffet is amazing, we stayed 5 days and every single day there's something new and also something for children at all age. I loved the seafood corner, my husband loved the meat station and my 22 month old the pasta station. Just 2 blocks away from the public beach so it was very convenient. Even though its right next to the beer houses, we can still sleep with open window every night. The staff are also very attentive and friendly, especially to young children. They are always one step ahead so we did not even have to ask for anything! There's some room for improvement, like the air conditioning in room is not really cooling much due to the centralized system, and the food option and quality apart from the buffet can be better. Yet, the whole experience is very value for money and I definitely recommend this hotel for families with children.
