FERGUS Style Cala Blanca Suites

Mixed thoughts really .. The all inclusive is very limiting. There’s just one restaurant which is very much quantity over quality. The included drinks are not the best, so we ended spending more to get brand names. Okay for a cheap family week, but not really a couples hotel. Staff lovely. Big rooms with nice balconies.

We arrived at 3:00 in the morning and had to drive around the block 3 times to find parking as there is no parking at the hotel. We booked a family room that stated there were 4 single beds. There were only 2 and a sofa. We then had to make up the sofa bed and the pull out camper bed ourselves. However, there was no spare bed linen so we had to wait for the night receptionist to bring it up. We then had to make them up ourselves. Breakfast is a strange affair. The hotel is used for package holidays so it was always really busy. The choice of breakfast was good but the cooked breakfast was largely inedible. There were 2 pools but it was too cold to swim in the main pool and the heated pool was very small! Plus they were only open 10:00 - 18:00 so no chance for a prebreakfast swim. The private beach was covered in seaweed do not very desireable. We didn't use any of the entertainment or children's clubs. We did want to hire bikes, but at €9 per bike for 4 hours for a family of four we decided against it!

what a wonderful hotel. extremely friendly staff. Excellent choice of food which changes daily. Lovely suite with great views. Caters perfectly for adults with and without children. Good location and close to everything. would highly recommend to anyone. We arrived at 1-30 a.m. and they had left in our room a supper of salad and meats with fruit and bread. Very thoughtful.

The hotel looks a bit tired but has excellent facilities for children. More suited to families as opposed to couples. The food is very well presented but we found the it tasted bland. The fish dishes were over-cooked, which is a pity as they would have been very good otherwise.

We booked the holiday on Friday and flew on the following Thursday so we got a fantastic b&b deal. Very good value for money, the room was lovely, new and clean. We could have done with a small kitchen area for preparing babies' milk and washing bottles etc. but we improvised. The breakfast buffet was great and kept us full all day. The walk in closet area was so big we put the travel cot in it and made it a separate bedroom for our 1 year old. The pool area for children has 4 water slides and is super shallow so we were able to relax whilst our little one splashed around for hours. The private beach meant we had the option to go digging in the sand too. It's a good 10 min walk to the main resort but a taxi is only €3.50 if you are feeling lazy. Overall a very good option with children especially out of season when it was quiet but still hot enough to sunbathe.

The staff are the star of the show at this hotel. Always so attentive and enthusiastic! When we checked in the staff were lovely, when we go to eat always a welcoming smile and when we joined fitness classes they had such knowledge and provided an encouraging atmosphere. Staff at the restaurant were always working hard, chatting with customers, clearing tables, cleaning spills and replenishing food. The pool area could be an issue for families wanting to sit together as the classic British holiday culture of reserving sun beds is in full effect, no worries for us as a short scenic walk away were some out of the way quiet beaches which we prefer anyway. I understand why there was no more sunbeds put in the main area as they use the space for entertainment. Which is great! Always something new and engaging for children and adults alike. I really enjoyed the food at the hotel! Plenty of salads and tasty vegetables which we loved. Considering we were there for a week, everyday I found something easily to eat and enjoy. Fish was great too. Goofy and lolo were the names I’ve remembered (sorry I couldn’t name anymore, everyone was great) who had great energy and enthusiasm and truly worked so hard. We had a great room location overlooking the sea and our room was very spacious, the AC did make a noise but did the job! The decor and general upkeep of the areas such as hallways, stairs and lifts could be updated but hardly a complaint. Thank you to the team, they deserve a pay rise!

Very kid friendly hotel next to the ocean, no real sand beach although the pictures show sandy beach. The walls are thin and can hear everything that goes on in the other rooms. I would rate this hotel a 3 at best. It's definitely not a 4-star hotel
