Four of us stayed at the Mar Senses a couple of weeks ago, right at the very end of the season. I wholeheartedly agree with the comments made in the video, we’ve stayed in three different hotels in Puerto Pollensa over the years and the Mar Senses is probably the best of them. Great location, comfortable rooms, lovely staff and good food, what more could you need? P.S. the two brave members of the party reported that the pool was ”bracing when you first got into it, then it got better!”
Hi Alex-loved this review.I haven’t stayed at this particular Marsenses but have stayed at the Marsenses Ferrera Blanca in Cala Dor last September which did look very similar apart from it’s not adults only
😅We stayed there this September and they had a policy of removing towels for sun beds if you leave your sun bed for over one hour. This tried to stop the people putting towels on at breakfast and not using it until 4.00 in the afternoon!
Was that hotel called ora play around 1985 if it is I stayed ther with late wife and daughter Laura who was 5 at time would love to her back thanks Davie Coatbridge Scotland ❤
Greetings from Ireland. We both love your show, and its incredible educational information. We did not come out this year. The price more than doubled and suddenly went beyond reasonable inflation. Hopefully, we will return in 2025.
Great hotel and review. I was told that in Spain, hotels are not allowed to advertise adults only. They can advise that it’s not suitable for children but they cannot prevent children staying. Is this correct?
You have raised a very important point here, and something I'll cover in one of my updates, because I'm sure many people don't know this. Thanks Steve!
There are certainly many, many hotels that advertise as adults only. We're an older (~50) couple a teenage daughter. We're fortunate enough to prefer the more 'boutique' (hesitate to say classier 😂) establishments, and in some areas it's nearly impossible to find a good hotel that isn't 'adults only'.
@ Hi, Alex will cover this but I have been told that hotels cannot refuse children. The adults only hotels will advertise that the hotel is only suitable for adults due to the lack of facilities for children. My wife and I stay in an upmarket hotel that used to advertise as adults only but cannot do this now.
There lies your answer ;) Yes the pools are cool for most in October. However you find adults only hotel pools to be more empty than the family ones. The sea is warmer.
I stayed there a million years ago when they use to do allocated on arrival holidays. I was young and stupid back then so I can’t remember much about it
Hi Alex great review I was wondering if you could review ivory playa in Alcudia we booked for next September but I never see any reviews on it. It’s Facebook page not been updated since 2021 I’m thinking have I made bad decisions thank you 🙏 xx
I stayed here twice when it was for families and called the oro playa loved it then! Fantastic location ❤
It is fab !

Sunbed reserving at its worst, but pleased they are doing something about it!

Thanks so much.
I stayed there in June. Lovely hotel. Great location. The only thing was the much discussed , no loungers on the beach at that time!!!
Luckily we won't have this problem next year! They have a 4 year contract so will be out on time.
@ well I’m planning to come in September next year. So they have plenty of time to get ready for me. 😄
Alex..Que lindo 👏👏 Saludos

Do you ever cover Pollensa town itself, in your guides?
I have here, but I'll be back. ua-cam.com/video/Wa6BCwSkY3g/v-deo.htmlsi=M1OGTPjPIgJM2RH9
When was this filmed plz ,?
Late September or early October - I can’t remember !
There didnt appear to be anyone in the pool, would have been good to know if the pool was too cold in october ....

Oh wow ! I remember those allocated in arrival holidays that you could get for £99 or something ! What a treat that must’ve been to have come here !

I've had a few people ask about this hotel. Let's see. It's closed now, so I'll ask in Spring!
What's happened to the wall at El Arenel
What wall?
