Blau Punta Reina

Hotel location: good Facilities: wonderful with access to practically everything Hotel food: Hardly any vegetarian options Hotel interiors: requires better bedding facility

great hotel...no awful surprises. Clean rooms, great facilities and close to beautiful beaches. It was everything that we expected after looking at their website. Would return again. Only thing I would miss next time is dining in the buffet restaurant...very loud, very busy and food not that great. However, the Spanish restaurant was fantastic along with the Italian.

The hotel is very good. It is very clean and well maintained. Clean rooms, though can be noisy if you have an active family below or above. Wooden furniture on makes quite loud noises when moved around. This could easily be sorted with pads on furniture feet. The restaurants have very good food and a good variety for all tastes. Italian restaurant , Spanish restaurant, snack bar and a large buffet with many different offerings.One of the lacking rules I refer to is dress. People in vest tops etc at evening meals isn't right. Ok in the day at the bar by the pool but not evening. 85% dress correctly 15% let you downThe pools are very good. Cleaned daily and a really good size with good 8 feet deep areas in the middle and shallow around these for kids. Also a shallow good sized pool incorporated for smaller children. Second rule lacking is around sun beds. It is busy and there are not enough beds to go round. People leave towels at 5 am then don't use sometimes at all. Or come back at three in the afternoon. This should be banned. It really is annoying. Again really easily resolved if a member of staff just policed and removed towels not used. Evening entertainment is good. Not cheap cringe worthy actually good external entertainment that changed daily. Overall a good hotel that could be better if a few simple things were sorted by management. i spoke with a customer who had been before and the issues had appeared since his last visit.

Thoroughly enjoyed a second holiday at this resort. It has something for everyone, quiet areas for those who wish to relax and appreciate the lovely views from the smaller pool area as well as more lively entertainment for those who wish to join in the fun. Food is superb and the all-inclusive package is well worth it. Staff were very helpful, courteous and efficient. Book a sea view for the best position in the resort. There was a good mix of family groups from all over Europe. The only thing that could be improved is the availability of the Wifi connectivity across a wider area of the resort.

This isn't a bad hotel. It's just not great. It was my first experience in a resort in Europe and, if you have kids, it's about as good as it gets - there are unlimited activities to keep a family (or just the kids) occupied and entertained. For the couple looking to pamper themselves and have a relaxing holiday, it is certainly not that. Most people are on an all inclusive which results in much of the food and drinks being simple and copious, but not mouth watering. In fact such a high proportion of guests have all-in wrist bands that the staff seem to be confused how to process cash purchases (we had only breakfast and dinner included). Word of warning, if you get the shared bus from the airport you will make about 20 stops on the way to punta reina (it's the last stop) so I would strongly suggest a taxi for mini cab, even at the higher price, or expect to spend 2.5 hours in the bus. The rooms are basic but clean, basically a place to sleep but not much more (although the apartments are self catering). There is wifi in the lobby but it is excruciatingly slow In summary, if you have young kids and are looking for a nice family holiday, I think this hotel is perfect.

Should have been four stars, merits only one. The apartment was old, not very nice and definitely worn. The "kitchen" lacked dishwasher, toaster, oven, microwave and waterkettle, the walls were paperthin and the mattresses like marble. We checked out after only one of the prepaid seven nights. The staff was not surprised, asked no questions of our reason and even had a special form to fill out for guest leaving the hotel before scheduled departure!

We had a fantastic, relaxing stay in a one-bed apartment with a sea view (would definitely recommend an upgrade to a sea view if able). We didn't eat in the hotel but tried local restaurants; the only negative aspect was that there was a limited choice of places to eat at this early time of the year (early April). However, taking the bus or walking (45 mins) to Porto Christo gave more options.

The hotel and gardens are well kept and maintained with very welcoming staff to help us through out our stay. The location next to three beaches in particular cala romantica is spectacular and the views and water breathtaking. We did not stay in the height of summer so the beaches were not crowed like they might be later in the season. Overall the hotel was very family orientated and had great activities for children to do though out the day. If your a couple looking for peace and quiet this one might not be for you, having said that we still had a great time. If you are a family with children of any age this is the resort for you.!

A great resort on the whole - the food was great. Lots of choice and good variety. We had a great room as it looked onto/very close the pool and was therefore convenient for our young children (when weather got too hot for them they were able to relax in the apartment). All the staff were very friendly and went out of their way to be helpful- they always said hello and we were made to feel very welcome. The entertainment was varied mix between ok/good/excellent performances. The children's entertainment was good throughout the day, but the evening disco/shows started very late for our young children (2,4 years). The location had everything we needed - a few local shops, 3 beaches nearby. A good location for families as it was not too lively. Had a relaxing time. Would recommend.

Geat - Down side 1 bedroom aparts too small for families
