This is a well-located hotel with great facilities - and certainly good value compared with nearby hotels. Highlights include the well-kept pool area with plenty of loungers / fabulous sea views and the delicious food offering, even if breakfast has a bit of busy canteen feel. It’s only a short walk to Illetas beach, a range of restaurants/ bars and a very convenient location for a trip to Palma too as buses stop right outside the hotel. This was a second visit and the rooms were discernibly more tired (we moved rooms after the first couple of nights as our first room had quite a few issues) but then it’s a busy hotel and perhaps it’s due for some maintenance once the season finishes. The bedding certainly requires refreshment… the management does need to have a proper look at this…! Reception staff seemed generally a bit dis-interested, on check-in we stood for a full minute or so before any of the four staff even looked at us which was awkward as there were no other guests around. Check-out was similarly lack lustre. But that’s the end of season vibe I suppose. However Julian on baggage and Chantal in the restaurant (at breakfast, lunch and dinner!) worked so hard and retained a cheerfulness perhaps lacking in other staff. However nothing detracted from an overall positive stay, we’d love to return sometime. Thank you.

Great resort with panoramic sea views.

Excellent beachfront location with breathtaking sunrises (see photos uploaded). The room had superb noise insulation and stunning sea views. The pool areas were impeccably maintained, with one pool dedicated to adults only. Even the main pool was peaceful, never rowdy. The beach is rocky but the waters are crystal clear, with plenty of ladders for access — one extra wide ladder is particularly helpful for those with mobility issues or young children. The beachfront restaurant was wonderful, with a great atmosphere and views. Breakfast offered a wide choice, again enjoyed with stunning vistas of boats coming and going. The resort is about 20 minutes from Palma centre; taxis were easily arranged through the hotel and fairly priced. Check-out is strictly at noon, but the courtesy room provided for late flights was a huge bonus, allowing us to shower before heading to the airport. Room furniture is functional rather than luxurious, but the location and facilities more than compensate. The hotel has a great vibe, suitable for families, couples, elderly guests, and solo travellers. Strongly recommend booking a high-level sea-view room for the full experience. The team were also very helpful in arranging excursions, even securing a last-minute sunset catamaran cruise — truly excellent service. Check-in and check-out were smooth and efficient. Overall, this resort offers excellent value, amazing views, and a relaxing yet vibrant atmosphere. We will definitely return.

I stayed at this hotel for a six day vacation with my five-year-old daughter . From the time we were welcomed by Sergio and Desiree at check in until we checked out 6 days later, the experience was first class. These two really made our stay feel extra special. The interior of the hotel itself is little dated and could probably do with a little bit of modernisation but functionality wise everything worked perfectly and the facilities is absolutely fantastic. The hotel is located right on the water with its own little mini private beach/swimming area which was just a dream. There are two pools with plenty of sun lounges and umbrellas and at no point did it feel extremely busy. The breakfast buffet was amazing with plenty of variety. I think it would be hard to find somebody who would struggle to find something to eat.. I would definitely come back to this hotel.

This was probably a great hotel in its day, however having just returned we experienced the following issues: - 1. Our room key would constantly stop working (8 times in 3 days). We were initially told this was down to them being near our mobile phone, which was not the case. Only after I insisted that after the reception staff produced us a new set of keys (again) that they must now attempt to open our room door themselves with these new keys. Only then did they seem to take notice when they simply did not work again. Clearly the door lock mechanism was faulty. In general, the male reception staff were just very dismissive and bordering on rude! 2. The main pool has a nice setting by the sea, however at 9am the pool bins were still overflowing with the previous day’s rubbish, empty glasses and dirty towels everywhere together with broken dangerous deck boards. (no cleaning or maintenance). The only exception was when we finally got to speak with the hotel manager (Veronica) did she accept our complaints and was understanding and dealt with them.

Palace Bonanza Playa Resort & SPA is a wonderful property. The setting is pristine, with direct access to the Mediterranean. The buffet breakfast had many great choices for our family. The two property concerns we had: 1. The dinner buffet, and 2. The bathroom set up. Put simply, the dinner buffet was disappointing and over-priced. That said, there are restaurants in walking distance, and the poolside restaurant was excellent (especially on grill day!). The bathroom design is bizarre. It is encased in clear glass, with only blinds for privacy (the toilet area was frosted, but one can see directly between the glass doors). If you are traveling with a significant other, this will not be a big deal. But, with a family of four, our two kids shared a queen pullout bed and were positioned directly across from the bathroom. Anyone coming out of the shower was in their view. It's a really weird set-up. We liked the hotel and our stay a lot. If we stayed again, we would get two rooms!
