Well upon arriving at this hotel via Thomson holidays (no rep on the coach) 4 of us walked into reception and was first asked if we wanted to upgrade at 13 euros each per night ? then after saying NO twice we then went through the rather lengthy check in of which they wanted all the details we had provided...

Stayed for a week late in September--- with the exception of two rainy days, weather was lovely. The hotel is right by the water, and we had great views from our balcony. This is a simple hotel, with experienced staff and well appointed rooms. Although it largely caters for families, it wasn't noisy and we had a nice, quiet time.... More

been before to this lovely location + hotel. We did like the modernisation they have done so far, and usual great views etc. however this visit the staff (most) seemed grumpy, the food was not very good, at all. not much of a selection and very budget orientated, nothing like previous visits. disliked the overly loud music played during dinner,...

Stayed here for a late bonus week in October. Got great weather and beach front hotel was the icing on the cake. Staff here are friendly and the room and public areas of the hotel were all kept clean the whole time we were there. The beach became our relax zone and it was 15 euros for a couple of... More

We ended up in this hotel as our own hotel had some "problems" and we were moved to this one. The rooms were fresh and clean and with a short walk to the beach it was ideal. The bar and restaurant areas in the hotel were large and spacious and the food buffett was really excellent with plenty of choices... More

Although we generally do not like staying at big hotels, we had a great time at Sol Galivanes. The hotel location being beach front was wonderful, with guests able to enjoy strolling around; staff were friendly. We were surprised that the buffet was excellent, with interesting variety flavorful food choices . The rooms were clean ; the only downsides, you... More

I stayed at the hotel with my 80yrs old aunt and my 25yrs old son. We found the hotel spotlessly clean and the food to a good standard. the only downside to the holiday was that i hired a mobility scooter for my aunt. The ramp from the hotel down to the walkway in front of the beach was far... More

Cala Galdana is a beautiful place, and the Sol Gavilanes is a nice hotel. The rooms are clean and well appointed, the public rooms nice and comfortable, the staff are great, and the beach is only 15m. away. However, its Achilles' heel is the food, which is reasonably good and wholesome, but not up to 4* standard. As with many... More

I booked into the Hotel Sol Gavilanes at the last minute following a disasterous night in a villa. What a difference; the staff were friendly, efficient and helpful; the standard of the housekeeping was incredible. The accomodation was clean, modern and spacious and the food was plentiful and to a good standard. The location was fantastic, straight from the hotel... More

This was our 3rd stay at this hotel. Came earlier this year with our children and decided to have a last minute break on our own for 6 nights. Being used to going early summer, It was alot quieter in October. The hotel is just as wonderful and just as clean as ever. We stayed on the 9th floor and... More
