Good Points

For those with families, the Binimar is an excellent choice. There is lots to do, 3 swimming pools, my 5 year daughter loved the Kids Club, and my 2 year old daughter loved the adventure playground.
Both enjoyed the evening entertainment.
The Binimar is also well situated, with some good restaurants less than 10 mins walk, and 2 good sized supermarkets (one is an Asda) within 5 mins walk. The resort Aquapark is only 15 mins walk away as well.
Within a few yards of the Binimar, at certain times of the day, you can catch a local train-bus, which for a charge, can take you all around the resort. It is a good way to see the resort as well. It is also about 5 mins walk from the local bus stop.

There was also a sun tan advisor on the resort who was very helpful, especially when it came to advice for protecting the kids in the sun.


Bad Points

I would like to see more enforcement of the "reserving" of sunbeds, as by 9.00am nearly all the sunbeds had gone. With a 2 year old, there was no chance to get a sunbed under a parasol.
The on-site restaurant was a little expensive, and you can get a better deal in the restaurants that are nearby.
If you are looking for solely a beach holiday, then with respect to the resort, Cala'n Forcat would not be your choice. The beaches are very small, and it is much better going to say Cala'n Bosch or Cala Galdana.


General Comments

4 of us really enjoyed the weeks stay at the Binimar. We found the hotel staff helpful, and the entertainment staff exceptional. Rooms were fine and met our needs.

I would recommend the Binimar to anyone with young children, and we will be going back there in the future.
