| The Aparthotel where we stayed is on a hill in Torrenova, running up from the Blue Bar/Commodoro Playa Hotel area of Palma Nova. Over the week we built up our calf muscles climbing up the hill quite nicely. The main entrance to the Aparthotel.
The Reception area, where we found the staff to be very friendly & helpful.
They also had a departure/pick up book, where you could see what time that you were to be picked up by your transfer company.
As I mentioned previously, we stayed here self catering only with orange wrist bands, the AI people had Silver ones. The only time we noticed the value of AI, was when Becky bought 2 plastic glasses of coke for 4.40 euro's, which we thought were a rip off TBH. We never bought any more, as they had their own Supermarket next to Reception, where we purchased coke at 90 cents a can. We also bought fresh baguettes/french sticks, doughnuts, cheese, ham, crisps, onions, tomato's & water, to eat/drink on the balcony of our room through the week. We both thought that the prices that they charged were reasonable, with say a baguette/french stick at a euro & 1.60 euros for a 5 litre bottle of water. The Supermarket adjacent.
I asked the Maitre D if I could take a few photo's of the bar area & restaurant, which we never used either of as we were S/C. The bar area, which had things on at night like dancing, comedy, quizzes etc.
The restaurant, these photo's were taken at breakfast time, which was 8.30 until 11. The food looked wonderful & fresh. Lunch was 1.30 until 3.30 & dinner was 5.30 until 9.30. With the AI drinks bar available from 10.30 in the morning until 11.30 at night.
The Main terrace/sunbathing area, it was very busy, but we could always get a couple of sunbeds no problem. There was also a couple of pool tables, at a euro a game & a couple of table tennis tables available. There was also air rifle shooting, archery, darts & other games taken by a guy, who looked the spitting image of Linford Christie.
The main pool which was 1.1 mtrs & up to 2.4 mtrs in depth.
The view from the terrace looking towards Palma City area.
Becky with Son Caliu & Portal Nous area in the background.
The outside covered terrace area adjacent to the drinks/snack bar looking towards Palma Nova.
The children's pool area. There was also a children's club, The Panda Club, where a young lady took the kids playing games etc, which must have been nice for their parents to have a couple of chill out hours.
The terracing adjacent to the children's pool area.
Intertur have 3 parts of the Hawaii chain in the Torrenova/Palma Nova area, the Aparthotel, where we stayed, just down the road on the left were the newly refurbished Suites, with the use of the main Hotel opposite.The Suites, where in Palma Nova we met a couple of ladies from Exeter who stayed here, they said they were well impressed & could use the facilities of the main Hawaii Hotel as well.
The main Hawaii Hotel.
Both myself & Becky would definitely stay here again, due to it's location, views & facilities & we would strongly recommend the place for both couples & families. The only slight thing that we found strange, was that they allowed same sex groups to stay, which TBH never was a problem. We paid about £350 for our 8 day stay, which we thought was good value for June, & the weather was an absolute bonus, hitting at least 35 degrees c most days. Even at night, about 11.30, we saw the temperature was still about 28 degrees c, but we didn't find it overbearing TBH.

| Rep from me Mick. I'm going to look into that hotel for family prices. Next year, all going well, we'll be able to holiday in June, which should make things a bit cheaper. |

| Cheers Dermo. Also check out my Studio review for the accomodation, if you haven't already, as an apartment would have that extra bedroom & another sofa. I would definitely say you wouldn't be disappointed staying there mate. _________________ Mick

| Repped Mick. We have stayed in Hawaii Hotel a few times, its got a great location but we always thought the dinning area was far too small for the size of the building, we had to stand and wait for a table alot of times which was the only real down side, the pool is very small too but the hotel sits at the sea edge. It has been refurbned lately and looks really nice but not sure if they done anything with the dinning area _________________ |

I can imagine the pool fills up when the kids are off school . . Cheers again Boss. They do have 2 pools there, but TBH they aren't the biggest, so that is a good point TB. But only a 5 minute walk is the Med. _________________ Mick
