Brilliant rooms :) - Rosie. Date of travel: Aug 2010
Club Bellevue was amazing! Before we went we looked at feedback from other people and made us think it was going to be rubbish I went with 3 of my friends the room we had was amazing a lovely balcony which over looked the swimming pool and the lake with the island! The staff was very helpful and polite and the cleaners clean our rooms 3times a week! Overall it was amaziiingggg and families there are very friendly. Definitely booking next year :)

Club Bellevue Apartments - Amazing, loved it! - Lucie. Date of travel: Jun 2009
3 Girls + Alcudia=AWESOME! What a holiday to remember. Went to Alcudia and stayed at Club Bellevue Apartments, where we were a little apprehensive from all the reviews. Got there and found it was amazing. Everything you could ask for on the complex. Amazing swimming pools, a beautiful view from our balcony and our pool looking over on the lake, good bars and a friendly atmosphere. We found the reviews we read were rubbish and it was completely opposite. The guards weren’t impressed with us jumping in pools at 5/6am though. Good fun for us but not for them. Took a trip to Magaluf one night where we had an immense time. Don’t know about staying there, bit rougher than Alcudia but good for a night or 2 on the town. Over all, a wicked holiday - met some awesome people and we would definitely recommend it. Don’t listen to the bad reviews. Check it out for yourselves :D

Great Value Holiday - R and CA. Date of travel: May 2009
Club Bellevue Apartments have friendly staff, lovely surroundings, rooms cleaned to good standard every time we left cleaning card on door. The entertainment, especially Jesus, just fantastic... made the bingo so much fun. Entertainment wish, Grease, Disney, Strictly Britney - give a wide berth, they are awful! Westlife tribute and ABBA Again were superb. Will definitely return to the Bellevue.

Bellvue Alcudia - Mari. Date of travel: Oct 2008
I was attacked on my first night in Alcudia, a car with a Spanish man and woman tried to get us into the car. I fought her off and the man punched me in the face, phoning reception was a waste of time so was the police, apart from that I found the staff at Bellvue rude, ignorant and unwelcoming and not helpful at all, the island was nice and peaceful and a nice beach apart from that there was nothing that would have me go back there....oh and if you arrive at night there is no help to find your way about.

Clean and OK - Mari. Date of travel: Oct 2008
Accommodation at the Club Bellevue Apartments was clean and comfortable.

Club Bellevue Alcudia - David and Lauren. Date of travel: Jul 2008
The Bellevue Aparmtents is the worst place we have ever stayed, supposed to be three star hotel but I wouldn't even give it a rating. Rooms were never cleaned had to complain on a daily basis. Despite them ripping you off from the second you get there, there attitude towards you wasn't very pleasant. We also found Alcudia very expensive and found it definitely not a place for couples to go. More a place for families who want to be in bed by 10 o' clock.

Fab holiday, great for kids!! - Debbie. Date of travel: Jul 2008
Me, my hubby & 2 kids [age 2 & 3] went to the Bellvue, July '08. Weather fab! Very big, daunting place when we arrived but soon got used to it! We were a bit worried after reading reveiws but nothing to worry about! Anything you need to know, all you have to do is ask & you'll find out!! Rooms cleaned as often as you put the hanger on your door, really clean rooms. People who work there, really freindly. Selection of food & drink was fantastic. Gorgeous beach, only 10 min walk away. Only concern was the pool areas not cleaned every night, even after complaining!

Return to the Bellevue Apartments? No thanks!! - Price. Date of travel: May 2008
All I can say is we had a fab holiday but would never return to the Club Bellevue Apartments or the resort and can not recommend it. We basically put up with the resort while we were there and tried not to dwell on it too much to ruin our holiday which we had much looked forward to. The cleaner only came once during our stay and basically just made our bed with the same bed sheets! The room was full of dust and the bathroom didn't bear thinking about. I took my own Domestos wipes which I was glad of! I am still itching like mad after having approx 20 bites. I can't say the lake smelt but it wasn't pretty and most definitely would not recommend going anywhere near it. Our sink was blocked and we reported it 4 times to reception, it was only resolved after reporting the fault to a senior rep which we bumped in to by chance. Our fridge didn't work either but this never got fixed. I wasn't sorry to leave there and would never go back.

Bellevue Hotel - Anonymous. Date of travel: Oct 2007
Despite all comments on hotel decided to book anyway. Club Bellevue is a bit like butlins abroad. So much to do. Booking to go back to hotel Bellevue. Shame water park was closed in early October approx 1km away. Beach lovley approx 800 meters away. Helpful and friendly good English speaking staff. Lots of shops. Great entertainment. Kids Club good from 4 years. Food about 4/5. Ate out twice in 9 days for change. Fishing on complex in canal/river. Plenty of activities. Internet access in every block. All inclusive drinks lots to choose from. Would rate 8-9 out of 10 overall.

Bellevue? Hellvue - Dave, Denise & Kara. Date of travel: Oct 2007
Just got back from the Club Bellevue in Marmaris and all the bad reports I read were true although we enjoyed our holiday because we spent most of it outside the Bellevue even though we were all inclusive. I am not a moaner but I found the Club Bellevue to be more like blocks of council flats where you just do as you like, there is no security or staff at any of the apartment blocks, next door to us were a bunch of young irish lads who were singing, screaming and banging all night, even peeing from the balcony, reported them 3 times but nothing was done. The first day there we thought the food was ok but the next few days realised we were just getting warmed up slop we had "veal" or pork to choose from every day and we were a bit concerned as to the hygene of the staff and kitchens so we decided to eat out the rest of the week. The Club Bellevue really is not very nice and the brochures are very misleading but it was cheap and you get what u pay for and we made the most of it and enjoyed ourselves.

Bellevue - good points and bad - Chris, Diane, Kim, Jill. Date of travel: Sep 2007
My family and I went to Club Bellevue Apartments for two weeks. It took approx 45 minutes to Bellevue from Palma airport , arrived outside reception, collected your key, then made your way to your apartments. Very confusing as to where you had to go as there was 17 blocks all together in the complex. It took approx 10- 15 minutes to walk to where we were. We lived in fedra 3 originally but the mosquitoes were terrible and had an ant invasion so we asked if we could move. They moved us to fedra 1 which was much better, cleaner came every 2nd day. Accommodation was basic but was really nice I thought. Things around the complex was very good. You had daisy bikes for families to go round on and sightsee. Little mopeds, they were brilliant! Swimming pools, bars etc. The shops were five minutes outside the complex there was newsagents and telephone boxes but were far too expensive. €5 would be worth 10 minutes inside the complex for €5 outside the complex about half an hour!! And the newsagents was €3.80 for a 1 litre bottle of water and the supermarket outside the shop would be €3 for 3 litres of water! The restaurant took about 15 minutes to reach from our apartments as did the show garden. The food was a bit repetitive, we were eating pasta and chips every night as those were the only decent things. Not much variety. And far too much seafood! We met lovely people the two weeks we were there, all people and staff friendly. Reps were excellent!! You got to know them more and more and became really close to them and has helped inprove our Spanish which is something. Lots of things on at entertainment, Kids club/mini disco 8.00-9.00, group tributes, Westlife, Michael Jackson tribute, Madonna, Disney, ABBA, Elvis, Queen tribute, many more but was excellent. The entertainment would finish baout 12.30am then you would make your way up to a karaoke bar until 3.30 am. Was great! I highly recommend the Pizzeria, lots of lovely waiters happy to offer you things to do round the complex. And excellent pizzas!! Overall we had a really good holiday and would go back!!

Holiday from hell - Andy & Amanda. Date of travel: Sep 2007
The sign at the entrance should read Hotel Hellvue not Bellevue, we had originally booked for 4 people we got a room for three, the double bed is two single beds put together there was one single bed and a sofa where my 8-year-old son was sleeping. We were sharing the room with all the mosquitoes in Mallorca as well as other flying insects, we were infested with ants in the bathroom, the TV did not work, the phone to ring reception did not work there was one washing machine in our block that was working but there was people from other blocks using the machine because they never had washing machines in all their blocks. The smell from the so-called beautiful boating lake was incredible. It smelt like a swamp. We never saw any shows in the show garden as when we tried we were eaten alive by the mosquitoes. We got talking to an American lady at the pool and she said she had a rat in her apartment. We saw rats by the boat that takes you to the beach which is near to the restaurant. You have been warned. Holiday from hell!

Never again - Sharon. Date of travel: Sep 2007
Stayed at Bellevue for 10 days and it's fair to say wasn't overjoyed with the place. Should have had a 5 bed apartment and on the 7th day was still waiting for our put me up bed to be brought. Mozzies are an absolute nightmare, you get eaten alive. No air con which again is unbearable but you can't have your doors open because of the mozzies. 90% of the staff were just rude, didn't smile or even attempt to. Visited reception on a few occasions, tried to find out what days the markets were on and what buses we could catch, they said they didnt know?? Some of the evening entertainment was just dire, Robbie Williams - more like Robin Williams, and the Madonna tribute, during one of the songs the girl is writhing on a bed in a thong with blokes touching her up quite full on, I'm no prude but we came away, didn't really want a six year old watching that. Food was good if a bit repetitive. When you come out of the all inclusive restaurant have a look round the walls, it's alive with rats. Don't book excursions for Hidropark what a rip off! €34 for adults, €22 for kids under 11. It's literally a 15 minute walk from Bellevue and is €17 for adults and €8 for the kids, but you can barter if you've got kids with you. He let my 12 and 14 year old in as under 11's. There is also a big problem with ants at Bellevue. Don't go anywhere without anything on your feet. All in all doesn't sound like a very good review but I can only speak from experience and unfortunately we didn't have a very good one here, we were counting down the days to come home.

Club Bellevue Apartments - Marjorie & Leonard Hook. Date of travel: Sep 2007
Tthe Bellevue was a holiday from hell. The food was awful, the bacon, sausages, eggs was very greasy. There was not muh choice. There wasn;t any air conditioning. We had to pay €36 to hire a fan for the 2 weeks we were there. The maid only turned up when she thought she would and we had to ask staff for clean towels and toilet paper. We was bitten like hell by mosqitoes. Had to go on a root march at meal times whch was a walk across the lake which smelt. And on many occasions we ate out as the food was so bad. We was glad to get home. Never again will we visit the Bellevue. The entertainment was just awful. Just singing every night. No variety.

Self Catering, Fedra 3 - Hannah, Yvonne, Joshua, and Peter. Date of travel: Aug 2007
Having just arrived home from Bellevue I can honestly say I'm glad to be home! On arrival, at what can only be described as butlins with pools, and sunshine, we were dumped at reception and told by the staff, "You are now here" pointing to a map, "you need to be there!!". No help given whatsoever, we had to pull our own cases and ask other guests directions to our accommodation. Reps were nowhere to be seen for the whole fortnight, welcome meeting non-existant. Sun loungers unobtainable due to towels being put on the night before. On the day of departure, once again had to pull own cases, from one side of the complex to the main reception which was at the other end. Herded onto a bus and left at the airport, I would never come back to Bellevue if I was paid a million pounds!!

Never again!!! - Rochelle Liversidge. Date of travel: Aug 2007
Well what to say and where to start. We stayed from 28/08/07-11/09/07 in Fedra 1. What a dump. We spent the entire holiday sleeping with mosquitoes, fleas and spiders, the rats didn't sleep with us, they were at the back of the block. After the first night my daughter had over 50 bites, so badly infected we had to carry her to the doctors who said they were the worst that she had seen, we then had to go back every other day for steroid injections for her(shes 23 years old). I know there are mosquitoes abroad but due to the stagnant surrounding water they were rife and the stench was unbearable. Then the rest of us continued to get bitten, we thought that these were mozzie bites, some were but the rest were from fleas. The towels were changed twice in the fortninght and the sheets once. We asked for the room to be fumigated as other guests were doing so and we were given a can of Raid spray... what a joke. The staff were extremely rude and unhelpful. The tour reps (Aspro) were non exsistent until the last day. The noise on a night was bad too it went on til 4am or 5am nightly, security tried to stop it but couldn't. They then enlisted the police who calmed things down but when they'd gone it started again. We have been home for a week now and all of our bites are still infected and extremely itchy. We did take plug in antihistamine tablets and creams we bought 7 cans of citronella spray and four candles, nothing could stop the mozzies. They breed on the stagnant lake and unless the council clean it this will continue to be a problem. The daily lawn cutting and shaking of the palm trees doesnt help. Playing a game of crazy golf became unbearable after 3 holes as were eaten alive, all you could see were people swing there clubs about trying to swat them away. I have read other reviews and it looks like if you stayed in the all inclusive blocks you were better looked after. Fedra 1 is the furthest away with Fedra 2 and 3, and must be the last place where the cleaners go if they have got time. Don't take your kids here and put them through this torture or risk of being bitten, the girl in the next room was 4 years old and you couldn't see her face for the bites, she was in agony. The apartments themselves do look as they do in the brochure extremely pretty and the complex is very good on the eye, but the cleanliness is dire and needs to be addressed... give it a miss...

I loved the Bellevue - Brian. Date of travel: Jul 2007
I thought the Bellevue had something for everyone. We stayed in leda 2 on an all inclusive holiday, there were 5 adults and 3 children aged between 4 and 8. The food was ok for a 3 star. Only ate out once during our 10 days there. Anyone who likes fishing, the lake and canals provide ample fishing. All sea fish bred being one of the best baits. Entertainment was ok, the only let down at the evening shows was lack of toilet facilities. Would go back, we all had a good time, good value for money.

Fantastic holiday - Louise. Date of travel: Jul 2007
We have all just returned from our holiday at the Bellevue and after reading some of the other reviews I was a bit worried. We had a fantastic time and the kids (10 and 6) loved every minute of it. When we arrived in the early hours after checking in, a car came to the reception to take us to our hotel on the complex. Even though the complex was very large, everything was close at hand.The entertainment on at night was brilliant and the kids couldn't wait to get to the show bar every night. There was Abba tributes, Westlife tributes, Grease, Rod Stewart tributes, Mickey Mouse shows and lots more. There was bingo every night for the adults. Shops were close at hand as we found drinks round the pool a bit pricey. If we go there again we would probably go all inclusive but the only downside is that not all the pools on the complex have all inclusive bars on them during the day so you would have to walk to another pool if you want drinks. We recommend this complex to people of all ages with or without kids.

Alcudia, Bellevue - Forecast. Date of travel: Jul 2007
Alcudia is a lovely area, mountainous region, Moorish buildings, good roads driving, port is beautiful, good market, Bellevue huge complex sited on huge lake. It has a boat to beach, €10 return. The lake is full of fish, all visitors do good fishing. Be warned, mossies by the score and bites aplenty, access apartments 6 steps with ramp for prams or wheelchairs, so many blocks, flats on this complex. Looks like a council estate set in gardens with numourous pools dotted around. These are set on steep grassy areas on slopes. Access by steps, 8 on some, not good for walking difficulties. Also could do with the steps down into pool being maintained as broken top step wobbly and unsafe. Also handlebars down to hold came out of there stabled ground hold. Not good to access pool. For apartments Seinna ii allocated pool, this was not good as also nothing to hold onto set around the sides. Inside pool approx 6ft deep around. Not any real shallow part. The apartment had balcony, table, 2 chairs, inside it had 2 beds open-plan, lounge part and behind louvre doors a basic kitchenette, adaquate for catering to needs. TV 2 channels, news. If you want anymore go buy voucher. Couldn't get phone working to contact reception, no air conditioning. Go hire a fan at reception. All inclusive restaurants set across lake. Access 6 steps up bridge 6 down other side or else more walking. To go walk all round this attraction. The reception set by main gate, a hut type building, offers no help to get luggage across this huge complex and to have to walk over to this building. If got walking/ breathing difficulties it is a nightmare. Lengthy walk as is to get the in between meal snacks all inclusive as this is set over by building at that side and not near pool that was allocated to apartment nor the buildings near restaurant. None of this was managed nor tried due to the inconvenient way set out for anyone other then the fittest abled bodied guests. Also cafeteria Bellevue is set by all incl. restaurant and open throughout day and evening. Coffee, food, drinks. I made the effort to get to this to sit outside and was then charged for drinks order. I was never told this was not all incl. This was not the snack bars. By all appearances, one would believe it was, as other holidays I've had sure did have this sort of thing available. Not so here. Noted other guests made this mistake also. We then found Mrocco Bar for all incl, non-alcoholic drink but no AI food snack served here, not ever? As at the allocated pool drink only kiosk. Some AI guests (able bodied) could not seem to find where these were, and some guests rather upset by the fact that they were not so reachable. Excellent points to this complex: the locality, great strip, shops, hotels outside complex, as is good service, bus stop, pharmacy, supermarkets, giftsbars restaurants, etc. On site is medical centre 24hours and local hospital less than 5mins from site.

Bellevue Alcudia - Craig Castledine. Date of travel: Jun 2007
Just got back from the Bellevue. We stayed at Minerva 1 although we stayed all inclusive we were unable to use this bar and so it we had to walk to Sirena 1 to use this one. This was our only gripe. Spacious apartment with balcony overlooking the pool. Great activities during the days, with brilliant entertainment staff especially Rickki and Tatti and Helena. Very clean everywhere, great choice of food at meal times, good quality entertainment at night with the host Jesus. Yes you have to rise early to bag a sunbed but thats all in the game of life! I would highly recommend this venue for a fun family holiday.

Bellevue was great - Louise, Dave, Lyn, Ellie, Logan. Date of travel: Jun 2007
Have just got home after staying in Bellevue for a week and would definitely go back. Stayed in leda 2 which is the best situated block. We were all inclusive, the food was great, there was something for everyone, even my fussy eating daughter -my son will eat anything. Room was OK, basic but clean, but you only sleep there. The entertainment was great. The kids loved the mini disco every night. There is also a small fair on the comlpex. The pools are well looked after as are the grounds. Locally there are shops galore right outside the main entrance. The beach is about a 10 min walk away, or a short boat ride accross the lake inside the complex. There's so much for the kids to do. Lots of the pubs outside have play areas so you can sit and just watch them have fun. The weather was great, the food was great, Bellevue was great and we will certainly return to this resort in the future! The only downside is there is no aircon in the rooms but you can hire fans if you want to.

Belle View, Alcudia. - Jo Vernon. Date of travel: Jun 2007
I am a 70 year old Grandma and went last week to Bellevue with my daughter, son-in-law and grand-daughter. I've read all the reviews and am wondering what the negative ones are moaning about. I absolutely loved it. The apartment was large and spotlessly clean. We went all inclusive and the food was absolutely wonderful. The place was clean and although I had a couple of mosquito bites, they didn't trouble me too much and were only what could be expected from a holiday abroad. As I say, I'm 70 but although I use a stick to walk with, I didn't find it too far to walk, and it was a pleasant walk anyway. As for noise at night, well, what does one expect from a family resort? It didn't trouble me and I slept like an oak log every night! I didn't bother with any of the entertainment, as I was ready to retire to my bed at 9-30, so cannot comment. But I must say that the place was spotless and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely go again.

I thought the Bellevue was sort of okay - Shaun and Brenda Blewitt. Date of travel: Jun 2007
The brochure description of the Bellevue is misleading, we were under the impression you could use any of the bars, restaurants or facilities as an all inclusive guest.We were wrong. Mini golf, tennis, bikes, go-karts, pool tables, rides, all the things that kids like and even a decent cup of coffee. Pay, pay, pay. All of the kids clubs and activities are situated away from the three all inclusive bars that you can use. So if you want to put your kids in one of the three kids clubs and stay close (present climate for leaving children doubtful) then you have got to pay. The evening entertainment was excellent with professional tribute bands most nights, and well above the standard of most all inclusives we have been to. But, and this is a big but, the all inclusive bar with its 2/3 bar staff who were working at the pace of sloth on valium, where it could take anything up to 45 minutes to get a round of drinks. Guess the Bellevue has a really tough sensible drinking regime. But the pay bar not 30m away, with its 4 staff on and 3 waiters was maxing out at about 45 seconds. OK for the rich and famous. The restaurant and food was acceptable to good and the sweets were to die for (came home an overweight unhealthy teetotaler). Everything else is liveable with but the dreaded mosquitoes are not, and the biggest reason we will never go back. I am writing this with about 47 bites and looking like an arctic commando covered in calamine lotion. I have travelled in India on a motorcycle, walked in the jungle in Kenya, and travelled through Thailand. Give me the female Anopheles and the Tsetsy Fly anyday and keep the Bellevue.

We loved Bellevue - Valerie McHenry. Date of travel: Jun 2007
We are on our last day at Bellevue and have enjoyed every day. Apartments were very large and comfortable (have to admit air conditioning would have been a bonus). We were in Fedra II which is a bit of a walk from main reception and one hell of a walk when dragging luggage. Place is very family friendly and quiet at night. Only down side to the holiday was the mosquitoes which plagued us for two solid weeks. Would recommend to any friends with young children or older couples just looking to enjoy some together time - just make sure to bring something to keep the mosquitoes at bay!

Bellevue was good - Rakhee. Date of travel: Jun 2007
Just returned after 10 days staying at the Bellevue complex. After reading some reviews before going I had my concerns and wished I never booked it, however after being there I can now say I loved it. There are a few downsides but hey, there is with everything but there are certainly good things too. When we got there, reception gave the key cards and showed us the map on how to get to our room, yes you have to carry your own bags and cases around the complex trying to find your room. Luckily Sirena 2 wasn't too far, that is where we were staying. Some places were a good half hour walk away. I would recommend the Sirena building as is quite central, you only have to cross the bridge and you're at the main area of restaurants and shows garden, etc. It was a nice room. No AC, however you can hire a fan, we took are own portable fan. Mosquitoes are an issue there, I only got bitten 4 times however my friends got tripple that. I found that Cintronella oil helped just a dab of it on the wrists and ankles. Food wasnt great same things each night, breakfast was the best I would say. I wasn't at all happy that we could only use the main restaurant and everywhere else was to pay. The complex has got different places to eat and bars but all inclusive people have to pay there. Entertainment was brilliant, really enjoyed it, it does get a bit breezy in the evening so take a cardigan or jacket with ya. There are 2 all inclusive bars in the show garden and 1 paying bar. Make sure you try the San Fransico cocktail, it's really tasty. Toilets are just outside the show garden behind the barbecue, however most nights the lights wern't working so you sit on there in the dark LOL. Pools at complex are nice, however getting sunbeds can be a problem at certain pools, can't reserve beds as your towels get thrown off by security. All bars are only at certain pools so you are restricted to pools however we just filled up bottles of drink at breakfast and put it in the cooler bag. The Beach was lovely, white sand and lovely water, it's about 15 to 20 mins walk from complex or you can get a boat ride on complex to beach it's €2 single and €3 return. Last boat back is a 5pm. At the beach you have to pay for sunbeds it's €3 per bed. As for trips book through No Frills, they are lovely and cheap, there is a girl on the complex you can book through. We did the caves of Drach which I do recommend! It's a trip worth seeing and we did Marineland which isn't worth it, it's the smallest marineland I've ever seen. Any questions please email me to ask as I'm sure I can answer them. Rthapar21@hotmail.com

The Bellevue was more like a village then a hotel. The staff were on the whole very friendly and made a real effort to keep you entertained. However, it is very hard to catch the attention of the reception staff who do not seem to want to help at all. I would recommend this resort to families with children but not for a couple of friends just looking to relax. On the one day of sun we had, whilst relaxing by the pool the entertainer took it upon himself to start shouting at me with a mega phone to try and get me to play archery. I was not too impressed as he kept this up all day! Apart from that the apartments were clean and impersonal.

Just got back from a week in Alculdia. Stopped at the Minerva I apartments in Bellevue, which was good. Arrived late on the first night and was allocated a studio apartment (although I had paid for a 1-bedroom) had to change rooms the next morning but asked for the Minerva I as the Minerva II is ok unless you're situated street side (very noisy at night). Our room on the 3rd floor overlooked the pool which wasn't noisy at all. The rooms were clean and all kitchen equipment is provided (Microwave, toaster, kettle). In terms of eating out, I'd heard that Yummy Yummy was a good place to eat.... DON'T BOTHER!! The staff were rude, the food in small portions and not very good. If you like Chinese food try Chino restaurant. It's just over the bridge and down one of the side streets, excellent value for a 3 course meal for €6. Don't bother hiring a bed on the beach as no-one ever checks anyway - save yourself €3! Walked to Pollensa but beware if you want to bus back, all the buses are No. 2 and they go everywhere. I walked it back in the end - took about 1 hour. Overall I would go back to the Bellevue again - the Show Gardens do great free entertainment. Catch Rod Stewart, he was very good!

Whats the problem? - Becki, Katie, Claire and Racheal. Date of travel: May 2007
I have just returned from the Bellevue Aparments. I went with 3 of my girlfriends from May 26th to June 3rd '07. We arrived quite late at night and were taken to the main reception by our rep (first choice) we were 4 of about 8 people on our coach getting off at this complex. Our rep got out room blocks and the coach dropped us ouside our block. This was very helpful as it seemed to take us a further 15 mins in the coach (can u imagine walking with your cases at that time of night in the dark) we were given 2 seperate rooms but had asked for 1, so 30 mins later that was sorted out (he did not speak a word of English, not helpful at 3am). Once we got to the room we had asked for, it was brilliant, we stayed in Mineriva 1. We had expected 1 bedroom and a pull out bed in the living area, however we got 2 win bedrooms. Perfect. the apartment was very clean, no nasty smells, no broken equipment...one of the best I've stayed in. We had a lovely view of the Alcudia strip overlooking the canal. we went to the Disney show hosted by the reps...don't bother! The kids I teach could do a better job than they did. Considering the entertainment is a on 2 week roll over rotor, they should have been on time with the words and also with the dance moves, it was all very improvised and half of them didn't know what to do when it came to it. The kids entertainment seemed very good, always something for the kids to do. If you have young children I'd miss the Chigago night, the reps were dressed in bondage gear stradling chairs, not what I'd want my kids to be watching. The reps also didn't seem very into what they were meant to be doing. They just kind of stood, milling around or chatting in the bigtop. I thought the idea if reps was to get people motivated. Obviously not here! The pool was very clean, a bar by each one selling drinks, food, ice creams. There were kids there but what do you expect from a family complex such as the Bellevue. The kids were no problem. The water was freezing though. Went in twice the whole week. Outside the complex we'd recommend Luna's bar - great food, although quite pricey it is well worth the money. Entertainment all night, we went on a night that there was a Take That tribute, one of the best acts on the island. One of my friends celebrated her 21st birthday there and the restaurants filled her to the brim with free champagne and cocktails. You wouldn't get that in the UK. We also got free shots with almost every meal every night. Bonus! The beach was quite a walk away but was lovely walking there in the nice hot weather browsing at the shops as you went by. Be careful of the restaurant workers though, very in your face about eating at their restaurant, thrusting leaflets in your face. Went on a day trip to Marineland and Aqualand (was 2 half day trips rolled into one) I woudn't bother with Marineland, very little to see and do, we arrived there at 10am after an hour coach trip from Alcudia to Magaluf, by 10.45 we had walked round the entire park twice and stopped to take photos so we didn't rush. The only good bit about Marineland was the dolphin and sea lion show...absolutely fantastic. Aqualand, once we got there at about 2pm, was ok, nothing special, just your regualar water park. It was quite breezy on the day we went so we got cold very easily, meaning we weren't very keen to be standing in huge queues for rides which threw us in to really cold water. We were picked up at 4.30, 2 hours was enough there. The coach journey home took us 2 hours, the driver decided he'd take us cross country, even the tour rep from "no frills" had never been that way, very worrying when you don't know where you are and you're miles from anywhere! The pancake man was absolutely fantastic. Could have watched him all night, I would like some of whatever he takes to give him that much enthusiasm and engergy. If you have a late night flight home I would recommend booking a late checkout room very early. we weren't being picked up from the hotel until 10.30pm. We had to be out of the room by 12 noon so we had 10 hours where we were pretty much homeless. Then we got to the airport and found out we had a 4 hour delay, was meant to be getting food vouchers...am still waiting. All in all I would return to the Bellevue Apartments, very clean, helpful staff and a lovely place for all ages. People who have nothing better to do than complain about this place obviously have their sights set too high! Nowhere is perfect and you get what you pay for. Personally I think this complx is underpriced, and people should be paying a hell of a lot more considering what they get! Absolutely amazing!

Hellvue - Mark, Charlotte, Talia & Alana. Date of travel: May 2007
Would not go back here, was as the title says. Dumped at reception to start with, given a map and told we were in Fedra I, which was a good 15-20 min walk. Rooms fairly basic but ok. We were self catering so hardly stayed on site. Plenty of bars and restaurants to eat at. The further away from Bellevue the better they get. On site entertainment was very poor. Again didn't bother with it. We went to Peach Pit most nights as little ones loved it in there. Beach lovely. All in all a good holiday. Just accommodation was a bit of a let down. Would return to Alcudia but not Hellvue!
