FERGUS Style Carema Beach, Cala'n Bosch

Upgrade to a privilege or garden ground-floor room for easier pool access, garden space, and sometimes a private cabana or daybed.

Request a pool- or sea-view room, preferably on a high floor, for better views and evening sun on the balcony.

Choose a sea-view apartment; paying extra is worthwhile, and some side-facing rooms still have sea views.

Arrive early for a pool parasol or a beach sunbed, especially before 10am when the cove becomes crowded.

Request a ground-floor, pool-facing apartment for direct pool access and possible daybeds or four-poster loungers.

Request a pool-view room, as back rooms may face the park or road.

Choose bed and breakfast or self-catering instead of half board if you prefer the many nearby restaurants to the evening buffet.

Check whether your apartment block has a lift before choosing an upper floor, as some blocks do not.

Avoid ground-floor rooms if noise concerns you, but request one when stairs are difficult or you are travelling with children.

Check the apartment layout carefully before booking, especially the sofa-bed arrangement and whether it overlooks the pool or car park.

Do not reserve pool loungers with towels; the hotel prohibits this and may confiscate towels left on deck chairs.

Take the bus to Ciutadella for about €2.05 each way; the journey takes roughly 25 minutes, but check your return stop beforehand.

Request a sea-view duplex apartment; duplex room 4303 had no pool or sea view.

Book one of the six duplex apartments directly through the hotel if you need two bedrooms or space for up to five.

Choose a room away from the pool for a quieter stay; rooms without pool views may still have attractive outlooks.

Book a Privilege room for its private double sun loungers.

Choose a higher-floor room for the best views, especially if booking a sea-view apartment.

Allow extra time to find parking, as the hotel has no private parking and spaces nearby can be difficult to find.

Pack high-quality sunblock and buy large water bottles for the room fridge.

Pack a hoodie or light jacket for cool, windy evenings, especially in early May.

Allow extra time to find resort parking, although free spaces may be available immediately outside.

Use the buses for inexpensive local travel, and hire a car only if you want to explore more widely.

Visit after May 1st if avoiding seaweed is important, as the beach can be affected earlier in the season.

Book a Balinese-bed room in advance if you specifically want one, and check whether the bed is shaded before paying extra.

Skip expensive beach sunbeds when needed and return to the pool area to sunbathe instead.

Treat the hotel as a peaceful retreat rather than a destination for extensive entertainment.

Hire a car for a few days to visit Cala en Brut and Cala en Macarelleta.

Shop at the supermarket opposite the hotel; the same building also has a large souvenir shop upstairs.

Consider half board if you value plentiful hotel food and find a good rate.

Avoid rooms 1104 and 1106.

Arrive for breakfast before 9:30am to avoid the busiest period.

Bring €10 for the beach-towel deposit.

Use the on-site laundry with large washing machines and drying machines.

Clean splattered marks from the walls when you arrive.

Bring an eye mask because the curtains do not block bright morning sunlight.

Bring an extension lead because rooms have limited electrical sockets.

Try The Aquarium for fresh fish and Sa Parrilla for meat near the harbour.

Take a taxi to Ciutadella and budget approximately €13–15.

Visit Ciutadella on your first day and try the tapas, arriving early because the area gets very busy at night.

Book a sunset cruise during your stay.
