Request a high-floor, sea-facing room; upper levels provide wider bay views, while top floors offer particularly large balconies.
What guests mention
Guest comments most often focus on the easy-going resort setup: several pools, ample sunbeds, a handy pool bar and activities such as tennis and crazy golf. Reception staff are a recurring positive, while cleaners and bungalow accommodation are also regularly mentioned. The Illetas position appeals to visitors who want a quieter break near Palma, with bus travel and airport access adding convenience. There is little detailed critical feedback in the available comments, so no consistent complaint stands out.

Top tips
Book a garden room or bungalow for more space, larger patios, private loungers, and a peaceful garden setting.
Request accommodation well back from the road, especially a bungalow or garden suite, to reduce traffic noise.
Request an upper-floor room; higher floors have spacious uncovered terraces and sea views, with west-facing rooms toward Palma, but top-floor lifts can be audible.
Request a mini-golf-side room for a sea view and a sunny balcony; higher floors improve the outlook.
Request a front, sea-facing room; two per floor overlook the sea, while other rooms may still offer ocean views.
Request rooms 655, 656, or 657 for especially good balconies.
Ask reception for help with questions or arrangements.
Choose a south-side room for extra quiet and more shade from the trees, particularly on higher room numbers.
Request a corner suite for airy interiors, double-aspect views, and sea views beyond the gardens.
Ask for room 552 if available for a high-floor location and strong sea views.
Request room 452 for a corner position and excellent views.
Request room 352 for a particularly enjoyable stay.
Ask for room 258 for views over the sea and gardens.
Avoid junior suites; standard rooms may offer a better location.
Request a tennis-court-facing room for sunshine throughout the day.
Request a second-floor villa for afternoon sun.
Choose rooms numbered x01–x26 for afternoon sun.
Request a room on the east side for attractive views across the hills and bay.
Take bus route 3 to Palma; it runs every 10 minutes.
Ask at arrival for your preferred room location; reception will do its best to help.
Ask for a right-hand-side room for balcony sun most of the day.
Book a Garden Suite Bungalow for a great view.
Choose a room number beginning with 5 for a great view.
Pack long trousers for the hotel’s dress requirements.
Skip the hotel parking.
Take a taxi from outside the hotel to the airport; it is frequent and costs about the same as a pre-booked taxi.
Buy a travel card for bus journeys.
Walk downhill to the small beach, then turn right at the lights; look for sunbeds and a friendly bar serving food.
Reach the pool after breakfast but before 10:30–11:00am to secure a lounger.
Consider half pension for the food, but budget separately for drinks with dinner.
Arrive for breakfast before 9:30, as table-setting may slow afterward even though breakfast runs until 10:30.
Ask for all hotel policies in writing before arrival, including dress-code requirements.
Contact the hotel directly before arrival with your room requirements, as online booking may not secure the ideal location.
Choose a room away from the pool bar and entertainment area if you go to bed before midnight.
Avoid top-floor rooms directly beside the air-conditioning installation if you are sensitive to noise.
If staying on the eighth floor, avoid rooms near reception, the bar, and elevators.
Ask for an extra mattress if the beds feel too firm.
Ask for bungalow suite 754 for a large balcony and an excellent view.
Ask for room 573 for a side sea view and balcony sunshine for most of the day.
Request room 560 for an excellent sea view and a balcony that stays cool in the evening.
About Hotel Bonanza Park
Hotel Bonanza Park is a peaceful, low-key base in Illetas, with a classic Majorcan holiday feel rather than a high-rise resort atmosphere. Refurbished in 2019, it pairs comfortable interiors with broad views across the bay, and its leafy setting, pools and bungalow-style accommodation give the property a pleasantly unhurried character. It is the sort of place for lingering over a drink at the pool bar rather than chasing a packed entertainment schedule.
The hotel sits in the mainly residential Illetas area, close enough to Palma for easy city time while remaining removed from its bustle. Palma Airport is within straightforward reach, and local bus connections make getting around without a car practical. With several pools, tennis and even crazy golf on site, it works especially well for couples, families and anyone planning a relaxed short break with plenty of time in the sun.
Guests frequently draw attention to the generous supply of loungers around the pools and the welcoming manner of the reception team. The pool bar also comes up regularly, as does the convenience of having a sister property nearby. Mentions of cleaners, buses and bungalows suggest guests notice the everyday details as much as the bay outlook and leisure facilities.
