    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    A great big pool, several suntrap terraces and loads of epic bay views are this hotel’s calling cards.

    Three minutes. That’s about how long it’ll take you to reach the beach from the Globales Almirante Farragut hotel, which has a cliffside spot by Ciutadella Bay. That’s if you can bear to leave the massive split-level pool, of course.

    Around the pool, tiered sunbathing terraces slope towards the sea, and in summer there’s a bar out here keeping sunworshippers hydrated. If that all sounds a bit sedate, no worries. From archery to water polo, this place has activities covered.

    While you're away, you'll have access to our 24-hour digital service, and a rep will visit at least once.

    Decent Hotel. Worth a stay
    14 Feb , 2020 AnEnglishBullTerrier
    If you want a bed in a specific location, you will need to reserve by 8AM. We are early risers so could ‘secure’ and use. You will need to go out the main entrance of the hotel then walk left around to the pool as the hotel doesn’t open the access doors until later. Unfortunately, there were numerous patrons who would place towels by 7AM and not use them until 3PM (if at all). To be fair the Brits reserved as we did, popped away for breakfast then used the beds all day. It was clear other nationalities were a problem (from our observations). If beds are not in use by say 11AM surely the pool attendants could remove the towels as at other progressive resorts? Room size adequate for 2 adults and one child. All areas very clean. Can be slow to get a lift at busy times. Hotel allows smoking in the open veranda eating areas. Whilst this may comply with the law some tables are a couple of feet from the entertainment room so smoke pours in. Perhaps allocated smoking tables further away from entrances and walkway could prevent passive smoking. Kid mini disco played pretty much the same soundtracks every evening, but the amination team put the effort in, and this is much enjoyed by all the kids. Later entertainment was decent holiday fare but don’t expect Broadway. The entertainment room floor can get very slippy (staff said it was due to the AC vs humidity) we witnessed a couple of bad falls whilst there. Food choice and quality excellent. Snack bars had plenty of good quality, freshly cooked fast foods. Ice cream pots and self-serve soft drinks as well as bar service Take some stale bread down to the cove and feed the fish, literally hundreds will appear. Snorkel and mask are a good idea. We only spotted the odd small jellyfish, but a few people got stung as they are difficult to spot whilst in the water. The more adventurous can jump into the cove from the cliffs. We found most staff very friendly and engaging and added to the holiday experience Small pool (kids) with slide is slightly warmer than the others but all had plenty swimming in them. Some slippy areas around the pool when wet.

    Fantastic, couldn't fault it. Spotless. Zsophia and Laura in Animation were fantastic with the childrens entertainment. Lots of choice in the restaurant. All the staff were friendly. Free wifi all over the hotel. Lots of English TV channels to choose from.
    Lovely hotel...just a few issues

    Hotel is really nice ,food good,snack bar is good. The little cove you can get to from the hotel grounds is lovely, but as previously stated be aware of the jelly fish I got stung, but the hotel has vinegar at hand for this just ask the lifeguard at the pool, rooms are lovely and housekeeping good. Only niggle is the safe is expensive and is operated with a key big bug bare as you still have to carry this around...and there are not enough brollys for the hotel guests and as we travelled with our daughter who cannot sit in the sun for medical reasons I had to get up at 7 oclock in the morning with the test of the whalleys to get one, not good especially when a lot of them were reserved with towels from that time and weren't even sat on till way after lunch. Overall great holiday.
    Lovely hotel, great staff, good for gluten free but pool cold

    My husband and I stayed here for a week in October. The room was a perfect size with a comfy bed, a good size shower and a balcony with table and chairs overlooking the inlet. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. I have coeliac disease and every day I would be shown what food was safe for me to eat. Normally I would be shown by the Maitre De who was very aware of cross contamination (a real issue for coeliacs) but if I was shown by anyone else and they were unsure they would always double check with the chef. There was plenty of choice of food for everyone and all very tasty. The animation team were busy every day providing different activities for people to do. We don't get involved in that and pleased that they did not try and push people who just wanted to lie by the pool and relax into doing activities. The entertainment in the evening was OK. Only one we really wanted to see was the Motown act and were a bit disappointed by this. Did not seem to have enough seating as lots of people stood up. They have the normal bingo, quiz and karaoke nights which seemed very popular. We spent most evenings in the adult bar or went down into the town. The pool was very cold. I only dared go in in the afternoon when a little warmer but still cold. The little inlet nearby was nice and warmer than the pool. All in all a nice hotel and a lovely holiday.
    End of Season relaxing break with a superb sea view.

    Large hotel, but we arrived at the end of the season so some floors closed down. Room was well appointed with good sized private balcony with great sea view. Comfortable bed and range of pillows and cushions. Walk-in shower was great size and always had hot water. Lighting was a bit hit and miss. Just very bright or nothing. No subdued bedside lights/reading lights. Plenty of English channels on the t.v. and tea-making facilities plus a good size fridge. Large wardrobe with loads of hangers and shelves. Disappointed with the cost of the key safe so we decided not to pay and spoke to others who did the same. Why don't they just charge a reasonable rate and make some money! Resort was closing down but as we were all inclusive this did not bother us. A/I drinks tasted fine and the adults only bar was brilliant to visit after dinner for a coffee and brandy/drinks. There are card tables nearby and it caters for pretty much all tastes. Restaurant looked modern and the food overall was of good quality and the staff were very friendly. Caters for all requirements and we had some very tasty fare. Never struggled to find something to eat. Help yourself to wine, beer, sangria or still/sparkling water or you can pay to upgrade wine. Swam in the sea which was warmer than the pool, but only a narrow rocky inlet which in the summer months is probably very busy. Lots of narrow steps down to the 'beach'. We had a great stay, but would probably not wish to visit this hotel when it was full!
