Choose a pool-view room for morning sun and entertainment views, but avoid it if you prefer afternoon sunshine or quiet.
What guests mention
Guests tend to rate this as a well-kept, good-value hotel in an excellent spot for Alcudia’s long sandy shore, nearby shops and evenings out. Staff are widely appreciated for being helpful and upbeat, while the beach bar, activities and entertainment create a friendly holiday atmosphere. Accommodation is clean and comfortable, but rooms can feel tight, with little storage, and sound can carry from neighbouring spaces. The pool area may be crowded at busy times. Food offers plenty of choice, though longer-stay guests sometimes find it repetitive, and a few mention unclear extra costs or inconsistent service.

Top tips
Arrive early for a sunbed, as the small pool area fills quickly and shaded loungers are limited.
Request a pool-facing room to avoid road traffic and see distant sea views, but check for animation noise, mosquitoes, or tree-obstructed views.
Request a high-floor, lake-facing room—especially a fourth-floor corner room on the west side—for better views, quieter surroundings, and sometimes two balconies.
Use the all-inclusive beach bar for drinks and snacks on the sand, especially when the pool is crowded or shaded.
Bring mosquito repellent, especially near the lagoon, stagnant river and beach at night.
Bring or hire a kettle and tea bags, as rooms do not provide tea-making facilities.
Avoid roadside rooms, especially room 106, because traffic noise can continue until around 05:00.
Request a lake-facing room for a quieter outlook, particularly on the rear side of the hotel.
Pack lightly because wardrobe and hanging space are limited.
Explore Alcudia Old Town, which is a short bus journey away.
Choose this hotel mainly for couples and older families, as nighttime entertainment starts around 21:00 with little for young children.
Request a room with a pool or lake view when booking.
Ask reception for one of the modernised rooms, particularly on the fourth-floor pool side toward the lake.
Avoid street-facing rooms if you want quiet, as traffic and early-morning coach pickups can be disruptive.
Head to the quieter beach beside the beach bar for a more relaxing swim.
Confirm that your room has a balcony, as some rooms do not.
Avoid rear rooms because a bin lorry may arrive around 01:00, and mosquitoes can be a problem.
Ask for a larger room, as some rooms are tiny.
Request a balcony, as family rooms do not have one.
Book boat trips early through reception or the beach stall, and consider the sunset tour.
Park free on surrounding side streets when hiring a car.
Use the regular, inexpensive buses from the stops outside the hotel to explore the island.
Use the balcony overlooking the outside seating area to pick up free Wi-Fi.
Confirm the bed configuration, as double rooms may contain two single beds.
Visit in summer if swimming is important, as the pool can feel cold outside the warmest months.
Bring earplugs if you are sensitive to corridor or evening entertainment noise.
Consider bed and breakfast instead of all-inclusive when you want to try the many nearby restaurants.
Expect check-in from 14:00.
Choose euros when paying by card to avoid an unfavorable currency conversion.
Book directly with Hyatt to receive 5% off and potentially pay less than through other booking sites.
Bring warmer clothes in cooler weather, as rooms can feel chilly.
Try rooms 226 or 116 for free Wi-Fi from the restaurant next door; the password is Lola’s Grill.
Use the first-floor fire-escape route to reach the dining area if staying on that floor.
Try room 448 for views over the roof terrace, lake, and pool.
Ask for room 259, 359, or 459 for double-aspect balconies and lake views.
Avoid the hotel if you cannot sleep in warm rooms.
Ask to change rooms if the air conditioning is inadequate and the hotel is not full.
Expect noise until around 01:00 in rooms overlooking the terrace.
Avoid rooms above the bar because the disco may continue until 01:00.
Choose a street-facing room if cooler afternoons and late evenings matter more than the view.
Use the sundeck for peace, quiet and lake views.
Use the frequent buses to explore the surrounding area.
Follow the no-smoking and no-vaping rule around the pool.
Use the accessible pool entrance if required.
Walk to the port, which takes about 40 minutes.
Take a taxi back from the market; the fare was €5.
Avoid room 532, as noise can begin around 05:30.
Request an outward-facing room to reduce disruption from rowdy evening entertainment until midnight.
Buy a cheap parasol and inflatable from nearby shops instead of paying for a beach bed and parasol.
Ask about rooms ending in 24–26 for more space.
Request room 403 if available, as it has been described as excellent.
Ask for room 470 or another fourth-floor lake-view room.
Arrange luggage storage and reserve a shower room if you have a late pickup.
Ask reception to arrange trips and taxis.

Go to the market early because the buses become busy.
Visit Funny Bunny’s for a good laugh if you are not easily offended.
Book taxis in advance for market days and airport transfers.
Book more than one room when travelling with more than two people.
Ask whether renovated rooms are available.
Walk along the beach to the harbour, about 2 kilometres away, for more restaurants.

Ask about cider and other suitable options if you have coeliac disease.
Arrive early for an outside restaurant table beside the lake.
Arrive when the buffet opens to avoid the busiest period.
About Alua Boccaccio
Alua Boccaccio is a relaxed, sociable base for a Mallorca break that puts beach time and easy-going fun at the centre. Refreshed in 2018, it has a bright, contemporary feel, with a pool for languid afternoons, a varied dining set-up and a lively programme that keeps families entertained without making the whole place feel like a children’s club. Its beach bar adds a particularly appealing change of scene from the main hotel.
The hotel sits in Port d’Alcudia, close to the broad sands of Alcudia Beach and within easy reach of shops, casual restaurants and bars. The old town is a worthwhile outing, while the surrounding north-coast roads and facilities make this a practical choice for cyclists and active travellers too. It suits families, couples and all-inclusive guests looking for a mid-range stay where they can alternate between the pool, sea and local exploring.
Guests regularly praise the spotless rooms, welcoming team and beautiful beach setting, and many single out the beach bar and entertainment staff as highlights. Rooms are often described as compact, however, with limited space for belongings, and lighter sleepers sometimes report noise travelling between rooms. The pool can feel busy in high season, while opinions on the all-inclusive food are mixed: there is good variety, but some guests find the menu becomes familiar after several evenings.
