Grande Real Santa Eulalia Resort

Grande Real Santa Eulalia Resort

10/10 Excellent
"Stayed here 3 nights with a picture postcard sea view. The room was very spacious with a good sized bathroom and roomy balcony. The entire property is in a beautiful setting beside the beach. Ate at the hotel each night and the food was excellent. I had the buffet dinner and the a la carte . Pool area had snack bar and plenty of sun loungers. Pool towels are provided. As a solo traveller I felt very safe in this hotel."
