Although the resort was very pleasant and the area beautiful, my family and I were in the minority as 99% of the holidaymakers were German. Very few of the hotel staff spoke English and all information was in German. Even the food descriptions in the restaurant were in Spanish and German only. I'm sure that if we were able to speak German we would have been able to make friends here as the majority of the guests seemed to be friendly. We think our travel agent in England should have known this hotel or the area of Cala Ratjada was not the best resort to book us into. On our return journey we spoke to other English holidaymakers who had stayed in other resorts and they said they had not experienced the same problem and that there were plenty of English speaking holidaymakers at their hotels. The north east area of Majorca is very beautiful but the transfer time was very long (nearly 2 hours). We love Majorca but will stay in another area next time. Our accommodation could have been better but on the whole the hotel was very clean and staff pleasant.
