The Hotel Son Matias Beach, is the BEST hotel I EVER worked! I was entertainments manager there along with Joyce for two seasons. Well done to all of the team along with Andreas and Tony. If you enjoy 'quality', then this is the hotel for you...Thank you...Bryan S.
Well...it's a lovely hotel and lovely people...What more could you ask? Problem is: It is 7 seconds from the beach! TOO far for an old codger like me!..😂 🅱️🌺.
Well...I don't wish to be the bearer of 'not so good news', but the lovely Joyce passed away on January 28/2017 aged 63 years. Joyce was one of the best! For anyone who may remember Joyce , thank you for remembering a fine lady. Sleep well and thank you for being you...Bryan S.❤🌺...
Lived 2 mins from this hotel ,, great area for bars and restaurants around ,, I always used to stop at the little burger bar rite outside this hotel most days for a cold beer and food .. ,, love the island.. it’s like going home when we go
That cocktail looked amazing! Wow! What a room with a view! Champagne too!! So nice! The hotel looks an amazing place to stay! So pleased that you got to stay a night there to bring us this fabulous video. Really looking forward to seeing what the evening meal and entertainment was like.
Best time of year to holiday there. Usually weather is great and this is a lovely hotel. Used to come round here on occasion for the night time entertainment which is very good.
The hotel looks lovely Alex overlooking the beach too it looks clean and modern and comfortable. I would like to stay there looking forward to seeing the rest of it. Thanks hope you enjoyed the cocktails too. Enjoy xx
I can remember walking past this hotel when we visited for the day whilst staying in Palma. Thank you for showing us around it certainly does look like a gorgeous hotel.
We always stay in the Santa Lucia and we have done for years myself and my daughters went into that Hotel last July just to have a look and we’re definitely not impressed it’s like an old folks home and as soon as we walked near the pool we was stared at and felt very intimidated by probably the regular guests we’ve never felt like that at the Santa Lucia we’re going again this year in July for my daughters birthday and they always send a bottle of wine to our room Love every minute there very relaxing and absolutely beautiful staff ❤
We felt exactly the same when we stayed there they allso put we in a room which was abuv that steak grill place all the smoke and smell was on hower balcony and in the room we will never stay there again ☹️
Stayed here about 2021 great hotel .the Desk Couldnt do enough for you.we was on high floor great Views over loocking the beach with a Coffee.the breakfast was lovely .Very peaceful and relaxing when catching some Rays.and plenty of bars and restaurants Suroundin. We are back here Next month .looking forwatd to it.
A good tour around the hotel, looking forward to seeing what the food is like, with your honest opinion. Overall so far looks rather nice, fantastic view. Thanks Alex.
You were very fortunate to be in the Junior Suite, it looked amazing. I have only stayed once at the Son Matias & the ordinary rooms are ok, but the sea views are great.
We stayed there a few years ago lovely hotel it was like an old folks home we were put in a room which was abuv that steak grill place all the smoke and smell used to be on hower balcony and in the room as well ☹️
Woweee. That hotel is awesome Alex. Just the views I was looking for when looking for a property over Palma nova. Appreciate all the hard work you put in while sipping cocktails. 🍹😊
Love your up dates Alex would love to see some footage of Plazamar Serenity Resort if your back in Santa Ponsa if it's possible at all keep up the good work
Hi Alex been following you for a while now and we booked a vacation on the island for the first time in about 10 years .we are staying at Caralonia Del Mar in Cala Bona .. could you please point it out the next time you Vlog in that area .. keep up the informative and enjoyable content.. as any of the subscribers stayed there and have any helpful reviews
Thanks so much for watching Kevin. I would love to check out this hotel, but I have to be invited in. You can see the Catalonia del Mar in most of my live streams - it's almost right next to the Hotel Cala Bona! I often walk past and it's in a fab position!
Looking forward for our 36th year in the Son Matias this year Alex, one thing you did not mention is the pool does not really have a deep end. So if anyone is a bit on the nervous side you need not worry the very deepest it is is around 5 feet so everyone can enjoy the full pool rather than hogging the shallow end.
Great video as usual. We are coming to Palma nova in mid May, I know last May there was unfortunately terrible weather. Do you have any prediction? Thank you
Good morning Good moring Alex just found you from the macmaster and wot a lovely lady you our we our coming over for the first time ever in June only because you done i we MEAN a fantstic job of this Hotel going to book it this saturday ( just a quicky is the al inclusive limited for DRINKS ) and i dont know .. wear just awaiting for your next vlog with Lee you have a lovely day ian and jen and me cat benjelina xxx
Alex if you could do a review on the Plazamar Serenity Resort in Santa Ponsa only if it doesn't put you out in any way in would be greatly appreciated love your videos
Hi Alex. Great video! My husband and I are staying here in September cant wait! We arrive at hotel roughly 10am will we be able to check in, what is the policy please?
Double check with the hotel, but I think you can still check in, and leave your bags, and your room will be ready around 2 or 3pm. Better check with them! Maybe you'll get it earlier.
I stayed here September 2022 and the sunbed policy was not followed. I spent two afternoons round the pool looking at sunbeds with towels on and noone came to check the loungers or place stickes on them. Sun loungers are ment for people to lay on, not a glorified towel rack

Love your up dates Alex would love to see some footage of Plazamar Serenity Resort if your back in Santa Ponsa if it's possible at all keep up the good work
If you can add it to the list on the hotels post on the community page, fab! It's super hard to keep track on comments on videos and social media!

Good point Robert! It was too cold for me to swim to test it out, but this is great info and very reassurring too!!!
@MallorcaUnderTheSun,
This is an awesome review. Could you please review the Iberostar Bahia de Palma hotel? I will be there this summer! 🏝️
I would LOVE to but I have to be invited by the hotel (and I can't afford to stay myself). Hopefully Iberostar will see your comment!
Great video as usual. We are coming to Palma nova in mid May, I know last May there was unfortunately terrible weather. Do you have any prediction? Thank you
I don't yet. I will be making my Mallorca in May content in the next couple of weeks so hopefully I'll have an idea then.
Good morning Good moring Alex

Please
Please add this suggestion on to the list on the post about this on my community wall. I can't keep up, but I'll be in touch with the hotel.
@@MallorcaUnderTheSun thanks
Alex if you could do a review on the Plazamar Serenity Resort in Santa Ponsa only if it doesn't put you out in any way in would be greatly appreciated love your videos
is the Hotel torrenova still there had my first Foreign holiday there in 1978
Hi Alex. Great video! My husband and I are staying here in September cant wait!
We arrive at hotel roughly 10am will we be able to check in, what is the policy please?
Double check with the hotel, but I think you can still check in, and leave your bags, and your room will be ready around 2 or 3pm. Better check with them! Maybe you'll get it earlier.
Is this all inclusive only
No all Inclusive here. They offer half board or bed & breakfast
Booked to stay this year twice for two weeks
wow! Enjoy!
I've checked they fully booked for 2 years
Really ?!
I stayed here September 2022 and the sunbed policy was not followed. I spent two afternoons round the pool looking at sunbeds with towels on and noone came to check the loungers or place stickes on them. Sun loungers are ment for people to lay on, not a glorified towel rack
That was two years ago but also it's the responsibility of the guests too.
Did I miss the Restaurant?
Yes see the next video - I ended up having to make two videos or the video would’ve been far too long !
i tried to book this hotel for next month, and for june
it. is. fully. booked.
:(
Oh WOW! Already?!
I find it really strange there are no sunbeds on the beach. Bit sad.
See my interview with the Mayor video
2 cocktails I hope you didn’t end up on magga strip 😮
Hahaha
The Son Matias hotel has over 16.000 repeat guests says it all doesn't it.
