Hotel Xaloc Playa

The hotel is located directly across the road from the beach and a 2 minute walk to the local restaurants. Punta Prima is extremely quiet, mainly seafood restaurants, 4 supermarkets and a pharmacy. The bar that leads on to the beach is really the only one where you can just sit and have a drink without food. There are a couple of outdoor market stalls that set up late afternoon into the evening. Be prepared for the mosquitos at night! The hotel is 3 star but the staff and service is 4 star. The staff at the bar, the dining room, Reception, housekeeping and maintenance are all equally helpful and friendly, nothing is ever too much trouble. I would say the staff are the key part of this hotel. The hotel is well cleaned throughout, from the rooms to the pool and grounds and communal areas. We had a lovely clean but basic room facing the sea with a balcony. There was a shower over the bath that was powerful enough. The room was cleaned everyday and fresh towels were given, although the bath towels were more the size of hand towels! The beds were comfortable with extra pillows and blankets if required. The air con was more than adequate and free. You had to pay for your safe with a 10 euro deposit. There was a hairdryer in the bathroom. The restaurant was simple, bearing in mind it is only a 3 star hotel there wasn't an abundance of choice it was simple but it was enough, hot and plentiful. Breakfast was excellent, with hot buffet, self service tea and coffee, juices, pastries, yoghurts and fruit. I have a severe mushroom allergy so had to ask a couple of times to check food didn't contain mushrooms, the chef was always on hand to ask and confirm. Drink orders were taken at your table as soon as you sat down for your evening meal, you paid for these when you left the dining room. There were snacks at the outside pool bar during the day and although we didn't have any they looked delicious and were large portions. The drinks at the bar including hot drinks were cheaper than outside the hotel. If you fancied snacks outside of the hotel I can recommend the snack bistro on the corner, Royal Cafe Bistro, but it's only open from 8am - 3pm. They serve the best milkshakes and coffee. The pool was lovely, plenty of umbrellas and sunbeds, although they were very old and a few need replacing. There is plenty of shade on one side that doesn't really get the sun. There is a small mini golf area. This hotel is very peaceful and perfect for couples who want a relaxing time. There is entertainment 3 times a week but we didn't bother. The bus service to Mahon is hourly from the side of the hotel and the ting ting train goes directly to Binebeca. We got a taxi to Mahon for 14 euros from the taxi rank just down the road. The beach itself wasn't that nice, there was a lot of seaweed and it was just rotting away on the sand. We are beach people but ended up staying around the pool due to the amount of seaweed on the beach and in the sea. We wouldn't visit again due to t

Absolutely spotless ! Great bar in the hotel, staff are brilliant and the location is second to none. Going back soon. The night life is really good too .. the bar in the hotel is reasonably priced. Rooms excellent and the shower was really powerful .. loved it

What a lovely hotel this is and so peaceful with trees surrounding the pool. Our second visit and just as enjoyable for a short break. Punta Prima is a small resort so ideal for a quiet relaxing long weekend or even a longer holiday if you want a peaceful location. The restaurant is a little more like a cafeteria and can get very noisy but pleasant and there is a smaller quieter area if you can get a table there that overlooks the garden area at the front. Thank you to all the staff and specially the cleaning staff who were exceptional. I particularly like the fact that the beach is very near to the hotel and there is a bus stop nearby to get into Mahon.

Well what can I say about this lovely hotel. First of all the staff here are lovely and friendly nothing is too much trouble for them and they always go out of their way to help you . I stayed in a lovely room overlooking the sea. The grounds are well taken care of and there is a large swimming pool with children’s section, ideal for paddling . There are lots of sunbeds and umbrellas around the pool area there is also a shaded area around the pool to sit and chill out. The restaurant is very well managed with lots of lovely staff on hand to help. The board basis is half board so have to pay for drinks. The waitress/waiter takes your order for drinks from the table then you pay as you leave the restaurant. The buffet breakfast is plentiful with hot and cold selections, pastries and cereals too. A choice of hot drinks and juices. Evening meal is buffet style to and there was always a good selection to choice from , salads hot meals , desserts. Overall this is a great hotel

We had a wonderful time in this resort. The staff were all very friendly from the reception to the waiters and servers and even the maintenance staff/ manager. He repaired my son's watermelon buoy. It had a hole. The food was really great, I had never had such varied and tasty frood from any 3 star hotels in Spain nor Greece. It was a great surprise. We also loved the shows, for a week we saw 3 different shows and they were all different, my 11 year old son enjoyed it as well. The whole vibe of the hotel was very relaxed, the pool area is very welcoming with the garden. The rooms are cleaned every day..It's very charming but the staff is the secret to this hotel.

A very quiet and relaxing hotel, with a wonderful team of staff that make you feel very welcome. We visited for 5 days for our anniversary, the food was very nice. Has several nights of entertainment from local performers. The area is very nice, and most areas are easily reached by taxi or bus, or the land train.
