MarSenses Ferrera Blanca Hotel Family

Currently on our last day at this stay and what a place it is. The entertainment staff were way beyond expectations, Diego, paige, Lorenna, Jordan Nacho and the rest of the team were upbeat, lively, fun and fully engaged all the children. The rooms were spotless, the view was STUNNING. My daughter wanted to attend every event possible that was scheduled just to be in their presence. The food was 9/10 brilliant, large variety, freshly cooked and the staff in the resturant were exceptional, very attentive and I've never had my plates cleared so fast with perfect manners. The location is also perfect, although it's more of a lively town than I depicted from the Internet, the beach is literally a 4 minute walk from the resturant and access to the town, 10 minute walk, access to the ting ting, also about the same. The drinks are VERY GENEROUS, so be warned, it's not like 2 drinks back in the UK. The general vibe of the place was friendly, welcoming and inclusive. I can not rate this place highly enough and we are already planning our return. Thank you to all the staff for making us feel so welcome and for the many giggles and memories you have given us x

Just returned from a 4 night stay at Ferrera Blanca (Adults only). The hotel is clean and modern and so are the bedrooms as well as being spacious, Although the shower could have been more powerful and our room was only cleaned 2/4 days. There is a great selection for breakfast and you can also order from a menu which was an added bonus and the dinner options are some of the best that I have had from a buffet! The location is great, right on Cala ferrera beach but about a 15 minute walk to the centre of Cala D’or if you don’t mind a little walk! Over all the hotel is great value for money, the staff are friendly and attentive and there is a great selection of good quality food for breakfast and dinner.

Second year we’ve stayed here and it did not disappoint. The best thing about the place is the combination of kid friendly pool area and the entire animacion team. The whole crew (Diego, Armand, Lorena, Nacho, Aleica, Paige, Ryan, Tito, Jordan - sorry if I have missed anyone!) made our kids holiday. They make every effort to include the children (and adults) in activities and create a fun filled atmosphere through the day. The evening entertainment was also really good for the kids (aged 6 and 5) with a great mix of outside acts plus the animacion team themselves putting on shows (the dance show with interactive elements was a highlight!). The hotel is really clean, easy to get around despite the split layout and food is better than you would normally expect at an all inclusive. We aren’t the sort of people to go back to the same place but we’ve booked to go back for a 3rd year in a row as we can’t fault the place for a fun family holiday. Thank you to the team!!

1st impressions were good, nice reception area and helpful staff. We were quickly checked in and directed to our room. Room was a good size for a family of 4. Bedroom with 2 single beds pushed together and a double sofa bed in the lounge. Room was cleaned every 2 days which didn’t cause too much of a problem. It was a pleasant surprise that we had a small kitchen in the room and dining table/stools. Balcony was a good size with 4 chairs and a table. Only down side I would comment on in the room was the amount of ants… they were everywhere! You couldn’t leave a drink on the side because it would be infested within minutes. They were up the walls, on the worktops/table and on the floor. I informed reception who sent the maid in to sweep them up. In the end, we learnt to live with them. Luckily they are only quite small, just lots of them. We were in block L which seems to be the far side of the resort. Fairly good location as we were far enough away from the evening entertainment so we couldn’t hear it if the kids fancied an early night and we had easy access to the splash pool by walking on the outside of the resort. We were right outside the house keeping meet up point though, so every morning we’d have to try and push our way past 15+ housekeepers all with their own trollies to get in and out of our room. The huge bins for the resort were right next to our room too so we had to walk past those constantly. There are 3 pools in the resort. A smaller/quieter pool in the middle. The main pool and the splash park pool. The splash park pool doesn’t open until 10am and people start queuing at the gate from around 9.40am (a nice orderly queue I must add), no pushing in or running involved. Everyone in the queue managed to get beds and even those who turned up just after 10am managed to find something. There are 9 slides at the splash pool. 3 big, 6 smaller ones. All great and the kids loved them. The snack bar is also located at this pool where you can help yourself to soft drinks and food. Food includes (but not limited to) pizza, nuggets, burgers, fruit, ice creams etc. The nuggets taste like McDonald’s!! Beer and slushes are also available but the staff will serve you those. No other alcohol available at this pool. The ice creams are free at this hotel and you can help yourself. Best variety of ice creams we’ve seen in a hotel. Own brand cornettos, ice cream sandwiches, magnums, ice lollies, plus others. The main pool is on the small side in my opinion, and is a fairly simple pool. There is no time set at this pool for being able to reserve beds, and most are gone before 8am. There certainly isn’t enough beds and no where near enough umbrella’s for the demand. They have back ground music at this pool which was a nice change from the silence at the splash pool. Bar at this pool isn’t self service, but there’s a large selection of drinks and again ice creams to choose from. (No food at this pool). The smaller pool of the 3 is

Fantastic family holiday. Couldn’t fault this hotel. Excellent food, friendly and helpful staff, fun, attentive entertainment team, perfect facilities for my 2 and 5 year old and great location. The splash pool was perfect for their ages and the entertainment team were brilliant; really made an effort to include all kids, learning names and praising them in activities. Big thanks to Loreno, Diago, Nacho and Paige for helping my kids join in really made their holiday I was really impressed with the food and restaurant environment for a family all inclusive and I am quite fussy with quality; different each night with lots of quality seafood, meat and veg choices, authentic themed nights, presentation great and always hot and fresh. Always options for the kids and nice not to have all fried options for them. The snack bar was perfect for the kids and although mostly fried food the stone baked pizzas and salad and fruit in the fridges gave a healthy option for adults if you didn’t want to go the main restaurant. Special mention to Inma who worked constantly to keep this area clean and tidy and was great with the kids trying to get their own food and drinks. Also just a mention there is coffee and beer options in this area too so mostly what you need in the day. We found the staff very friendly and helpful in all the bars and restaurant, they were very attentive and patient with the children which I’ve not experienced to this extent before really made the holiday. We were put in a room above stage which was too much for young children but reception were so helpful and moved us as soon as they could the next date. My only suggestion would be to add shade to the main bar area for daytime activities

Couldnt fault our 7 days in this hotel, great service, facilities, food and drinks to a high standard, kids (2 & 3 years old) had a ball, day and night entertainment to a really high standard, great location, great views. 10 out of 10. Just a few observations for any readers - Most apartments are accessed via stairs and not lifts. Buggies can be stored behind reception but for us it was fine + our room had a great view so worth it. The hotel is split by two roads but they are v quiet and not really an issue and not a safety issue. There does seem to be an issue with ants as mentioned by other reviews but nothing major. Walking distance to pubs, shops etc 5 mins to beach but a lot of steps so a bit trickier with buggies As this is an all inclusive, the food is never going to be michelin standard so any foodies may be dissapointed but there is good options and in the most v nice. Drinks options are v good. entertainment team are brilliant.
