Hotel Son Matias Beach - Adults Only

“Nice hotel in lovely location.”

Great location, beach only across promenade. Only had bed and breakfast but the breakfast was to die for! Best I've ever had abroad....even did english sausage and bacon.

Great location, beach only across promenade. Only had bed and breakfast but the breakfast was to die for! Best I've ever had abroad....even did english sausage and bacon. Would have gone full board but evening meal times far too early....nothing left after 7.30pm. Staff, all lovely, friendly and helpful. Evening entertainment not bad, had worse. Motown and Soul groups good as was Abba tribute. Generally older clientele which probably explains the early dining. Rooms all face sea, lovely views, walk in shower, clean and tidy. Tea, coffee, kettle and fridge available. Didn't bother with safe as price of 5 euros per day excessive in my opinion. Sunbeds all had mattresses but were getting harder to find as we left.(end of May getting busy.) Although very hot during the day the evenings were the opposite....very cold wind, not breeze, but strong wind off the sea. Some restaurants offered blankets to customers. Nice place but not returning.

Just back from a lovely 7 night stay at Son Matius . Fabulous location and fabulous staff. Very much popular with older guests but also some younger couples. Hotel and pool area absolutely spotless. Pool area including sun beds and jacuzzi are hosed/ cleaned every morning. Pool does not open till 9.30 there was a relatively small queue waiting to get the towels on sun beds, however as the day went on the lifeguard would take towels off unused sun beds which was good. There was never a problem getting a sun bed. Food was fine typical of hotel buffet food. Julie resort entertainer was great at trying to rally round people to join activities which turned to to be really quite fun ! Acts at night entertaining. I would for sure return to this hotel and recommend it to friends / family . Special thank you to Julie for making her activities so inclusive also to Sue and Josefa who were always so welcoming in the restaurant.

fourth visit and likely iour last. Firstly the staff are great. BUT 80 EUROS to keep the room on for 2 hours last midday?? Four star hotel that charges for a safe.....30 euros for 9 nights! I'm sure they used to have cava at breakfast. ..no longer! The location is great.....but the sunbeds....thwy used to open pool at 9am not it's 9.30am and they queue from 8am!! As for the ignorant older folk who see the line and ignore it and walk to the front......! For these reasons we won't be back. We found it really clicky too thos year. As for the pool policy....one hour is not enough time to go get lunch....thw resort is mega busy and if the place for lunch is 10 mins away you have 40 mins to order and eat. One and a half hours as a minimum....we had our stuff took away as due to how busy it was we were 2 hours one day for lunch even though we had been on it since 9.30am....next day someone put their towel on next bali bed at 9 30am and did not come back until 2pm....no note on their bed!! I saw that alot! The prices of drinks... 9.5 euros for a small gin and tonic!

Just got home from an eleven night stay at this hotel. On arrival at reception we were greeted with a warm welcome and our room card was ready as we checked in on line before leaving home which was simple to do. We stayed on a bed and breakfast basis and must say that there was plenty of choice for all nationalities and the food was delicious. The hotel is spotlessly clean and the cleaning staff are amazing at what they do. The bar prices are in line with the rest of the resort which is overpriced. Our first few days by the pool were fine what with being able to walk out the door to secure a sun lounger by the pool without a mad charge which followed after day three when some new guests arrived and it was mayhem with them queuing outside from 8am for a 9.30am charge to get their favourite spot for the day. Many of these holidaymakers, left the poolside to go for their breakfast not returning till a couple of hours leaving others without a lounger for the day. This hotel has 135 rooms and only just over 100 beds. The beach has also increased its prices for two beds and a parasol from 13,50€ to 19,50€ since last year which is a huge hike in price. With the increase in price on the beach, we believe more guests would like a bed by the pool instead of having to pay the extra euros to have no alternative than to go to the beach. This hotel in our opinion is overpriced and not four star.
