Hotel Spa Porto Cristo

The bed was very comfortable the room was a decent size, the bathroom was very good, the hotel was ideally located and convenient for the village centre, restaurants and shopping and only a stone’s throw from the sandy beach. We went every evening and took a cup of coffee on to the open air roof garden, plus we had a great view from our room of the sea with the boats bobbing in the harbour The hotel staff were very dour and uncommunicative No greetings or conversation whatsoever, it went also for the breakfast room staff. Breakfast was very limited but quite acceptable. Porte de la Selva is beautiful, where the predominant occupation is eating, and very good too. Water-sports are in abundance, the population is Catalan, and very reluctant to even speak Spanish plenty of French tourists no English at all in the 4 days we were there. We found it quite hard to make ourselves understood, but it all added to the charm of the place. We used to holiday at Porte de la Selva in the late seventies and early eighties and couldn’t believe how little it had changed, the same restaurants and shops, same layout and same beauty. The biggest change was the cost, the Porte is quite expensive these days, but the restaurants serve great fish and shell fish, we particularly liked the Restaurant Monterray the Turbot and Dover sole were exceptional. We will be going back and we will stay in the Porto Cristo Brian & Wendy Mabbott July 2023

‘Spanish’ Traditional style town hotel, one block back from the seafront, lots of marble. Efficient checkin, food size room if slightly old fashioned decor. Quiet and comfortable. Excellent breakfast with plenty of fresh fruit, variety of fresh breads and pastries, bacon and eggs, Nespresso and normal coffee options. Didn’t use the spa.
