just returned from the rocador hotel after eleven days the hotel is situated in one of the nicest positions in cala dor the hotel is clean friendly food is excellent lovely terrace bar over looking the beach rooms are basic but meets your needs

booked our holiday on line it looked like a great hotel and a perfect location which sounded perfect for us as we had no children. the location was perfect with a beautiful little beach right on our doorstep, but that is where the positive points stop! we found the rooms to be very dated and uncomfortable. the beds must have been bought at a mass prison auction and my wife and i ended up sleeping on the floor after a request of changing our single beds to a double. we gave up in the end! the dining expierence for the breakfast reminded me of my days in the army in a hot stuffy dining area, boufet style where manners drew a thin line and quality of food was non exsistent. the hotel has been lost in the early 80's in both guest, rooms, food presentation and the list is to long to go on. my wife and i are expierenced travellers, travelling to much more dated countries such as marocco, egypt etc.but have never come across and having to sleep on a floor in a so called 3 star hotel! this is the 1st time we writing a review but feel we need to warn future travellers on booking at this resort. oh one last thing the bathroom in the evening would awaken us with the smell i can only decribe as a dead donkey in the pipes! it took our breath away and thought about moving our bed onto the balcony but we were not keen on a camping holiday this time! thanks for reading this review, try this resort at your own parrel

We booked this hotel via the internet and read very mixed reviews, however after our stay here we were pleasantly surprised. The hotel could do with updating, but the room was very clean and spacious. The maids cleaned the room every day- although there was no tea/coffe making facilty in the room, this would have been my only complaint. The bathroom was quite large and also very clean. The Rocador and Rocador playa are joined together with access to two swimming pools, a bar area facing the beach with lovely views and another bar next to one of the swimming pools. We went half board and although some of the food may not be to everyones taste- there was plenty of selection which varied almost every day. The breakfast and evening meal was buffet style and there was plenty of choice -although there wasn't a great selection for children-we always found something that our daughter liked -or was willing to try!! I was pleasantly surprised with the evening meals and would definately eat both the breakfast and evening meals at the hotel again. The swimming pools were clean and we had no problem with our daughter who spent a great deal of time in both pools at the Rocador(were we worried by other reviews mentioning ear infections caused by the swimming pool) we found this was not a problem at all. The hotel backs onto the Cala Gran beach and is also very close to a selection of bars, restaurants and shops. Calor D'or is a great resort for families we enjoyed the restaurants,beaches and the relaxing atmosphere- and would definately venture back again- especially to the Rocador!!

I booked this hotel on the internet. I had stayed in this hotel 28 years ago with my parents. I revisted with my four children. I requested sea view rooms and we got them. The view was just perfect. The rooms even had an lcd on the wall which we only left a deposit for. It is not a really busy hotel and it probably needs a little updating, but for the position (as I keep saying) 2 minutes from the beach, a lovely swimming pool and right in the town centre, what more could you ask for. The food was very good which included sea food. None of us ended up with a bad tummy. The staff were always helpful. There isn't any childrens club but I like the low key entertainment and to sit at the bar in the evening over looking the sea with the distant sound of live music in the centre is just perfect. If you want noisy music etc just visit another hotel as there was only entertainment twice in the week. Overall I am pleased that I revisited this hotel after all these years. It has still kept its charm and is typically spanish. I am sure you wont be disappointed.

Recently returned from the Rocador Hotel. We booked last minute through Great Late Deals. Our first impression of the hotel was the decor was dated. The rooms were very clean and staff were helpful. The location of the hotel was brilliant, right alongside the beach, although the beach was really busy due to peak season. We tended to stay round the pool which was great for the kids. The marina is just a 10 minute walk away and has some fantastic restaurants. We ate just breakfast in the hotel which was the normal english, continental mix. The main problem we had with the hotel was accessibility. We had pushchair which could just only fit in the tiny lift. Also there were a lot of steps with no ramps, it was almost impossible to get to the beach. I would go back to the Rocador for the great location, cleanliness and value for money.
