Iberostar Waves Cala Domingos

We just returned from 10 nights at Cala Domingos, it was brilliant. On arrival we were offered a drink (soft or sparkling rosé) and our daughter an ice lolly. We had booked a beach level bungalow but enquired about upgrades on check in as I was a bit concerned about the space (there were four of us). I’m so glad we did as they had a family room available from our second night for not too much extra cost which was just perfect. The buggies are super frequent so don’t stress about getting up or down, and the kids absolutely loved them. You might have to wait 5 minutes during busy periods but you’re on holiday, there’s no rush. The food is some of the best we’ve ever had from a buffet (and we’ve stayed at Ikos!), we didn't miss the fact that there was no a la carte. Drinks fantastic and plentiful, not cheap. Daytime entertainment is hilariously varied, we particularly enjoyed a mini cirque du soleil-esque show that rocked up at 11am in the morning, and a fun fair session on another day (with a dunk pool and bucking bronco). There were little activities for babies and younger children dotted around and a kids club space with air con to escape to. If you enjoy sightseeing it might not be the place for you unless you have a car as the buses only run to Cala d'Or, Manacor and Porto Cristo, but you can tap in tap out and there are timetables and they're really easy to use. If you want a fly and flop it's ideal. Sunbeds - we didn't go in school holidays so I can't confirm if this changes but we didn't really have any issues. No need to put a towel down at 6am. Managed to get a bed by kids pools in PM easily. Special shout out to Oscar, Bintu making the best omelettes and Carmen making the best iced coffee at the pool bar (and everybody else). All in all I highly recommend. My advice would be to book a family room if you have more than one child. Beach bungalow rooms 11-15 (and maybe some others we didn’t see) are up a bit of a gravel path and then steps so not easy access for a pushchair. The family rooms overlooking the reception are remarkably quiet, we were right above the restaurant and didn't hear a thing. Only a bit of music in the early evening but that wasn't an issue at all. Room was also super clean as was the resort and I loved the trees and vibes.

Fabulous experience. Thoroughly enjoyed the layout of the hotel. All low rise and very spread out, golf buggies were widely available to take us all over the resort. The pools were spotless, the bars and restaurants were great atmosphere and high quality food and drink. Staff couldn’t do enough for us. The rooms were in the smaller side. But we made it work. Overall great stay thank you

We trabelled as a group of two families with young children - everything at this hotel was great we would definitely return. The resort is large so great to get some walks in, we tended to walk down to the beach and use buggies to go up the hill. Yes sometimes at peak they are busy and you may need to wait for one, but you're on holiday so what's the rush. Nice mix of UK and Europeans in the hotel which made it more interesting. Pools are great for kids and not salt water, they are heated. No sunbed issue unless you really miss the boat and come at 11am. Buffet is fresh and has nice food, Mexican by the beach breaks up the week too. We went to the town for a steak on one night, hotel sorted taxis for us easily even though we were 7 with 3 car seats needed. Staff are great, generally recommended for a nice break away. The sea area is stunning.

Very nice Resort. Would be cool if there were more vegan/vegetarian options at the snacks-bars like, vegan burger patties or vegan sausages!

We have just returned from our visit to this hotel. Absolutely fantastic. The hotel is spotless. The food is very very good. Lots of choice and all great quality. The only issue we had as a group of 8 with two small children were the rooms. We booked with jet 2 and allocated two double rooms and a bungalow. One of the doubles was absolutely tiny and you couldn’t survive in there with a travel fit and luggage. We asked a few days in and were moved. The only downside is these rooms have no balconies to sit on or dry any swimwear. Other than this we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The setting is beautiful. The staff are amazing and the food was sublime!!!
