San Antonio, Playa Bella Apartments

This was a really good holiday (best yet) and i would reccomend it for any families.I went with my family. there was something to suit us all on the site and we loved it..we didnt want to come home ..LOL..every one thinks ibiza is a clubbing and party holiday...its not true..me my 2 brothers didnt go to any clubs and still loved it....my little sisters also loved it..the weather was gorgeous everyday. Pool was really nice and spacious,little pool was really good for children,Food was nice and had alot of different choices,apartment was spacious and very clean,entertainment was really good( hypnotist)..Bouncy castles and trampolines were really good for the children to keep them occupied..shops,supermarkets,and chemist were all nearby..beach was nice and peacefull and very clean..staff were really helpful and very friendly.....

didnt expect playa bella to be this good ...was amazing..jus booked yesterday to go back again in july.

We have just came back from a 2 weeks stay at the Playa Bella. I wouldn't recommend it to families. The staff were friendly and polite. Our apartment faced out to the sea which was the only nice thing I can say about the place, oh and the weather. Found it a very noisy place to stay. The beach and sea was all rocks, paths and walkways are covered in dog poo, I was really disgusted that the owners did not pick it up afterwards. What really annoyed me the most was that the lucky, lucky people (sellers) could come into your complex and try and sell you sunglasses when you already have a pair on, even when you were having lunch they would put there sunglasses on your table. Wouldn't recommend to families like I said, the only things I enjoyed were the weather, view and friendly staff. My worst holiday ever.

Playa Bella Apartments is a lovely place to stay. Just some holiday makers have that lack of respect. Staff are very very good. Continuously cleaning the apartments and surrounding areas. Reception very helpful. Restaurant and bar staff efficient. Entertainment excellent. Even security at night gives you piece of mind.

Booked with Thomas Cook, I thought the rep was not at all helpful with us.

I lost my luggage for the first two days of the holiday and I got more help from the receptionist, she telephoned the airport for me twice to try to locate it. It seemed the rep couldn't care less. Appeared more interested in getting people on trips! No clothes for two days, no compensation offered either!

This hotel is advertised as a family hotel, yet is full of groups of teenagers. I was kept awake every night while they all GOT READY to go out at around 2am, then woken every morning when they all arrived home any time between 5am and 7am. In order to enter the apartments they had to use a buzzer system, which was extremely noisy in the daytime, let alone in the early hours of the morning, when they would usually just keep their fingers on the buzzers until someone let them in. Then the internal phone calls would start, with the youngsters phoning all the rooms as a wind up! I literally felt ill by the end of the holiday as I was so tired.

Next was the sunbeds and umbrellas by the pool, it was comical watching people hover around at 8.45am , hogging umbrella stands with towels and waiting until the beds and umbrellas were 'released' at 9am and then the insane frenzy of trying to grab as many beds and umbrellas as they could before they ran out. Then, after putting their towels out they all disappeared until much much later and the pool was deserted again apart from a load of towels on beds!

The food was the same everywhere, no variety at all.

Entertainment - well I've never seen entertainment reps like it! They would come down to the pool and whisper "pool polo" - look relieved when nobody heard them and disappear again! The entertainment in the evening was bingo every night, followed by an OK show, the best being a drag act which was hilarious, but it definately wasn't appropriate for family's with a huge amount of swearing and running through the audience hitting them with a live snake etc.

Finally the good bits, the apartment beds were comfy and the free air con was excellent.

I definately would not go back to Playa Bella or San Antonio Bay again!

Really bad holiday, road works, welding in the street, etc wouldn't go back if you paid me.

Really disappointing. Bathroom floor very slippery, the beach was nothing but rocks, rocks and more rocks. Kids entertainment was non existent for most of the week and when it finely was up it was awful. Pool okay but very cold properly warmer in a fridge!

Beware English weather is better and food well, believe or not England is cheaper.

I absolutely loved it. Me and my friend we were too young for the clubs yet old enough to go in the bars

I would most definitely recommend Playa Bella to anyone especially families.

I think its best for families because of the entertainment in the night the great pool and the fact that everything is near the resort. Me and my mate had the BEST time of our lives and were definitely coming back as soon as possible, but most likely when were about nineteen to check out the clubs, but we will never forget our stay in Playa Bella!

It was OK but we wouldn't recommend it to a friend.

Just came back from a family holiday at Playa Bella Apartments.

A little dissapointed with my 2 weeks away

Beach was littered with rubbish

San Antonio can be very noisy at all hours

I compared the surrounding bars etc as Blackpool with sun

Not my idea of an ideal holiday

One plus point is that a short ferry ride away are some lovely clean beaches that are well worth a visit to

I went to Playa Bella with my husband and three kids. we stayed in a two-bedroom apartment with spectacular views over the bay. I contacted the hotel beforehand through their website and the manager arranged it for me. And that is where the great service started. The staff here are so friendly, they really made our holiday. The apartments are spacious and very clean. The entertainment is also first class. I really have nothing bad to say about the apartments. I will be back next year. If anyone is looking for a great family holiday, then Playa Bella apartments are the place!

Playa Bella Apartments is most certainly a place where I would go again, there is just about everything you need, it is close to a lot of the amenities, and you are never short of a bar or restaurant in the immediate area, there are bus stops a minutes walk away from the apartments so even if you do not wish to walk into San Antonio bay you can get the bus. The apartments back onto the beach and there is a swimming pool for both adults and for the kids, the place is very clean the staff are always helpful, and to the best of my knowledge the apartments all have air conditioning. If you are lucky enough to get one of the higher up apartments (like I was) then you will have good views and get a beautiful sunset every night. The most important thing is that this place and the surrounding bars / restaraunts are not too expensive (not that any are really) the apartments themselves I would say are "no frills" if you know what I mean but you honestly don't need anything fancy anyway, this is Ibiza and you are here to have fun!
