Eques Petit Resort, Santanyi

Request a larger room, ideally with balcony sun; standard rooms can feel small and storage space is limited.

Choose Eques for its central location; walk to town, bars, restaurants and nearby amenities.

Use the provided pool towels, but bring an extra towel because the sunbeds get hot.

Use the plentiful sunbeds without arriving early or reserving one.

Bring extra clothes hangers because hanging and storage space is limited.

Rent a car because taxis can be difficult to find and Mallorca is worth exploring beyond Cala d’Or.

Book an Eques Premium room for a spacious layout and a separate bathroom instead of frosted glass shower and WC doors.

Book a Superior room for extra space, a living area and a ground-floor location.

Request Premium room B01 first, with A01, A02 or B02 as alternatives.
