We are huge fans of the Balearic Islands but this was the first time we had visited Ibiza. We were seeking a quieter break so following research we decided Santa Eulalia was where we wanted to stay and chose to book the Catalonia Royal Ses Etaques hotel. We had a fantastic stay and really cannot fault the hotel. We booked a junior suite on a bed and breakfast basis. We were pleasantly surprised with the size of the room, it had a large hallway/entrance with a large amount of wardrobe/storage space along with safe, mini bar fridge and tea and coffee. The bathroom was very modern with one of the largest showers I've ever seen, 2 separate rain showers along with 2 hand held showers. Other facilities of the room included weighing scales in the bathroom and robes and slippers. The bed was large (super king) and comfortable and the view from the room was perfect - all rooms having a sea view. The only slight ****** would be the lack of any shade on the balcony. Although there were loungers with umbrellas and bali beds in the garden and the roof top pool which were great it would have been nice to sit on the balcony without being in the full glare of the sun. A very minor issue though and did not spoil our stay. Breakfast as others have said is in a separate building a short walk from the hotel. Breakfast was great with everything you could want including an egg cooking station. Coffee was made to order which is a big plus from me as I'm not a fan of machine coffee. The staff at breakfast as with the rest of the hotel were all very friendly. It was my husband's birthday during our stay and the hotel made it very special from wishing him a Happy Birthday at breakfast, bringing us a glass of cava each to toast the occasion along with delivering a bottle of cava to the room that evening - really lovely touches that make such a difference. The hotel has complimentary snacks available at 4pm each day - sandwiches, fruit, juices and coffee which is another nice touch. We stayed bed and breakfast eating at the many tapas restaurants in Santa Eulalia on an evening. The hotel is a short walk to the marina, perfect setting for a cocktail at sunset before dinner. Our first visit to Ibiza exceeded our expectations and we had a wonderful, relaxing break. We would not hesitate to stay at this hotel again.
