Apartamentos Habitat

“Good value functional apartment”

We had a two bedroom first floor apartment for 3 of us (4 would have been fine). It was not luxurious but it was clean, comfortable and everything we needed without spending a fortune. Not many umbrellas by the pool but the buildings provided shade and there were plenty of sunbeds (not busy when … more

We had a two bedroom first floor apartment for 3 of us (4 would have been fine). It was not luxurious but it was clean, comfortable and everything we needed without spending a fortune. Not many umbrellas by the pool but the buildings provided shade and there were plenty of sunbeds (not busy when we were there). A good value bar/cafe and the reception desk were always helpful. A 15 min walk into central Puerto Pollensa (or a quick bus) and despite being on a fairly busy road the apartment was surprisingly quiet. I would recommend hiring a car to get the most from the island/area. A well stocked supermarket just over the road.

“Fine but wouldn’t stay again”

Overall our stay was fine but a huge let down for us occurred at check in which unfortunately left us with a really poor first impression. We arrived at 9pm for check in with our 10 month old baby, and asked the staff member at the desk if the cot we had pre-booked was already set up in the room.… more

Overall our stay was fine but a huge let down for us occurred at check in which unfortunately left us with a really poor first impression. We arrived at 9pm for check in with our 10 month old baby, and asked the staff member at the desk if the cot we had pre-booked was already set up in the room. We were then told that there were no cots available despite the fact we had pre-booked one with our apartment. The staff member didn’t seem to care and said we could have a spare mattress instead, which obviously for a 10 month old baby is not appropriate given how much they move around in their sleep and the risk of falling. We were left with no option but to co-sleep and move around furniture to ensure there was no risk of our baby falling out of bed, which was not ideal for us and resulted in a very poor nights sleep for us all, but this would have been totally unacceptable had this happened to a family and baby with health concerns where co-sleeping can be dangerous. This fell far below our expectations for apartments which are supposedly child friendly. One of the pools was filled with dead leaves and there were loads of mosquitoes outside made worse by the plants and stagnant water ponds in the grounds. Location wise it was not as peaceful as we expected, the noise and view of the busy road was a shame and the loud music in the bar across the road late at night was annoying. WiFi was terrible, I used my data instead. Positive points are the apartment is cleaned regularly, parking availability was good, the air con worked well and it was easy walking distance to local amenities.

“Nice apartments but noisy bar.”

Nice pool, clean apartments (although smell of disinfectant a bit overpowering), just a 12 minute stroll to the restaurants and shops in Puerto Pollensa.

Nice pool, clean apartments (although smell of disinfectant a bit overpowering), just a 12 minute stroll to the restaurants and shops in Puerto Pollensa. The supermarket across the road is very handy and the balconies overlooking the pool are lovely. However, the bar across the road with its loud Elvis nights etc is a total pain. It's not every night and it doesn't go on too late, but still ruins a nice peaceful evening on the balcony. For this reason I am giving Habitat apartments 3 instead of 4 stars.

“Needs improvement”

Receptionist on arrival was rude. Peered to chat to her friend. Ignored us. Put us on 3rd floor even after I told her I had a mobility disability. I really struggled. No lift. No parasols by pool. Could not sit out and read as there was no shade or protection from sun. Plenty of loungers? Dirt roun… more

Receptionist on arrival was rude. Peered to chat to her friend. Ignored us. Put us on 3rd floor even after I told her I had a mobility disability. I really struggled. No lift. No parasols by pool. Could not sit out and read as there was no shade or protection from sun. Plenty of loungers? Dirt round pool was bad. Door to our apartment did not fit properly. Key was worse. Spent 5 minutes each day trying to get in and out. Good job the bus service was good. Could get away to beach and other areas. No oven, only small hob and microwave. Couldn't cook proper food. We did eat at both local restaurants. One better than other but was quite expensive.
