What guests mention

pool area grand premium sea view old town melia hotel lovely hotel tapas half board mini bar short break sun loungers bottle of cava

Guests tend to like this marina-side hotel for its welcoming, professional team, spotless standards and appealing shared spaces. Bay-facing rooms, balconies, the pool and spa are frequent highlights, and the position works well for reaching Palma’s waterfront and old town. Feedback is less unanimous on the bedrooms: some feel they need refreshing despite the good views. Poolside service can be uneven, popular facilities occasionally get crowded, and a few guests report noise. Value for money divides opinion.

Guest guide

Your stay, step by step

Advice from guests who actually stayed at Meliá Palma Marina — the single most helpful tip for each part of your trip, in the order you'll need it, from booking to your last morning.

Booking

Book The Level if the benefits suit you; it provides lounge access, private space, drinks, snacks, and a less crowded breakfast area.

Transport

Use the taxi rank outside or ask reception to call one; book ahead during busy periods, and taxis accept cards.

Rooms

Choose a high-floor room away from the nightclub, avenue and rear or side streets to reduce traffic, bar and early-morning noise.

Dining

Book bed and breakfast if convenient, but compare the hotel’s breakfast cost with nearby restaurants before paying.

Pool & Beach

Claim a pool lounger early, ideally before 9:00am, because towels often reserve most beds and afternoons become crowded.

Activities

Walk up to Bellver Castle if you want a scenic outing near the hotel.

Location

Choose a more central hotel if being close to Palma’s main attractions is important.

Service

Request towel and linen changes only when needed to reduce unnecessary laundry.

Tips & Tricks

Leave towels on the bathroom rail when you want to reuse them.

About Meliá Palma Marina

Meliá Palma Marina feels like a polished city hotel with a holiday-minded outlook: its broad terraces, bay-facing pool and marina setting give it more breathing room than a typical urban base. Inside, the public spaces have a smart, contemporary feel, while Moss Restaurant brings Mediterranean dishes and lighter options to the table. The 900m² spa is a welcome counterpoint to Palma’s busy streets, whether you are planning sightseeing or simply slowing down.

Set beside the marina, the hotel is within walking distance of Palma’s historic heart, shopping districts, the Palacio de Congresos and the beach. It is a particularly handy choice for a city break, couples wanting sea views and balconies, or families who value a pool between excursions. The old town and cathedral are close enough to explore without relying heavily on transport, while the waterfront setting makes the return journey especially pleasant.

Guests regularly praise the warm, capable staff and the high standard of cleanliness. Many enjoy waking to marina or sea views and make good use of the pool, spa and sun loungers, although these popular spaces can feel busy. The attractive foyer and shared areas earn plenty of appreciation, while some visitors find bedroom décor less up to date than the rest of the hotel. Service is generally strong, though the pool bar is occasionally cited as less consistent, and noise can vary by room location.
