Playa Cala Pada
10 Mr N

This is the best restaurant in the area. The evening meal and lunch were superb, as were the day drinks and service. The food is excellent and the service is pleasant and polite. We highly recommend the sea bass for an evening meal. We had a wonderful time here, enjoying the views and it really made our holiday and put a smile on our faces!

Playa Cala Martina

I had an amazing New Year's lunch - the Paella Mista was delicious!

Playa Niu Blau

This beach near Can Sanso is great for snorkeling! The water is filled with seagrass and stones, so it's a good idea to bring some bathing shoes. On top of that, the sand is a beautiful golden color, making it a great spot for sunbathing.

Platja Sargamasa
8 Lyla

A nice place to visit. Visiting the beach is a pleasant experience.

Es Calo de s'Alga
8 Johnathan Smith

This charming adults-only hotel is situated on the edge of Santa Eulalia, a mere 10-minute walk away! There's a great selection of culinary options, though the a la carte restaurant will be closed in September 2022. The pool is excellent and the small beach and bay nearby make for the perfect spot for a refreshing dip. The staff are incredibly friendly and accommodating, and while the entertainment may be a bit lacklustre, the town centre is a mere stroll away.

Cala de Bou
