Request an apartment overlooking the pool; apartments generally face the pool, gardens, or tennis courts and often have morning sun.
What guests mention
Guests are especially taken with the waterfront position near Pine Walk, the bay views and the chance to use amenities at the main Illa d’Or hotel. The pool, terrace bar and attentive staff are recurring highlights, and several visitors describe the stay as one they would happily repeat. Families appreciate the apartment format and nearby shops, though it is worth confirming sleeping arrangements if relying on a sofa bed. Demand can feel higher during half-term periods, so early booking is sensible.

Top tips
Upgrade to a deluxe sea-view hotel room with a balcony; garden views may overlook the entrance and street.
Request a far-end or rear apartment, such as 708, away from the front street and main doors for quieter nights.
Choose an apartment for children or extra flexibility; larger units provide cooking facilities and access to the outdoor pool area.
Request a top-floor apartment for greater quiet and privacy, particularly during school holidays; the lift serves the upper floors.
Request a balcony; apartment balconies are spacious, though ground-floor and entrance-side balconies offer less privacy.
Avoid ground-floor or entrance-side apartments if privacy matters, especially for studio apartments.
Choose room 716 for morning sun; room 715 receives little patio sunshine.
Choose a second-floor poolside apartment.
Allow for a 1.5–2 km walk into town.
Reserve restaurants well ahead during busy periods, especially La Terrassa.
Choose a ground-floor apartment for convenient pool access with small children or limited mobility.
Pre-book breakfast to avoid paying roughly twice the daily rate; book evening meals on arrival if preferred.
Drive about 4 km outside Port de Pollenca to Eroski or Lidl for a better supermarket selection.
Hire a car from the airport for easier local travel; a taxi to Port de Pollenca can cost up to €75.
Request a front hotel room with a balcony for a particularly good outlook.
Book early and describe your room requirements so the team can try to accommodate them.
Check that a double bed is not simply two single beds pushed together.
Choose a larger apartment instead of a studio when staying with more than two people.
Request room 719 for a premium top-floor view.
Buy essentials at the airport convenience shop after a late arrival; it sells water, bread, milk, sausages, and ham.
Avoid room 705 if door noise bothers you because it is next to the main entrance.
Choose the apartment pool rather than the hotel pool for more sunshine.
Take a boat trip during your stay.
Use the two pools, including the adults-only pool.
Request a first-floor sea-view room if you prefer that elevation.
About Illa d’Or Club Apartments
Illa d’Or Club Apartments brings a more independent take on the polished, old-world Mediterranean character of the nearby Hoposa Illa d’Or hotel. These redesigned design-led apartments sit in an especially sought-after residential part of Port de Pollenca, pairing the flexibility of self-catering space with access to selected hotel pleasures, from the spa to sea-facing drinks and dining.
The setting is a real draw: close to the waterfront and the much-loved Pine Walk, with Port de Pollenca’s bay, harbour and everyday amenities within easy reach. It is a particularly easy fit for families and longer stays, as well as couples who want an apartment rather than a standard room without giving up a little hotel-style indulgence. A local SPAR shop nearby makes stocking up straightforward, while the seafront invites leisurely morning and evening strolls.
Guests tend to speak warmly of the views, the pool area and the helpful hotel team, with the terrace bar at the main Illa d’Or often singled out as a memorable extra. Many describe the facilities as a highlight and return year after year. Those travelling with a full party may want to check the sofa-bed setup and apartment layout carefully before booking, especially during busy school-holiday weeks.
