Pack light because storage space in the room is limited.
Guests tend to enjoy the hotel’s refreshed, contemporary look, well-kept rooms and inviting shared spaces, particularly the pools and quieter relaxation area. Its Can Pastilla position is widely seen as useful, with a nearby bus stop, easy airport access and local sights within reach. Many reviewers describe staff as welcoming, though others report uneven service. Cleanliness is usually a strong point, but isolated shortcomings do arise. Some rooms have practical niggles, including shower-temperature issues, and noise around busier areas can disturb lighter sleepers. Charges for certain extras can also weaken value perceptions.
Real advice grouped by theme — drawn from guest reviews of Alua Linda Mallorca.
Pack light because storage space in the room is limited.
Stock up on bottled water from the shop, as rooms lack drink facilities and receive only one bottle on arrival.
Take the bus from the stop directly outside the hotel into Palma.
Choose this hotel for airport convenience, but bring earplugs if plane noise bothers you.
Book a courtesy room early on your departure day if you need one.
Skip the early-morning rush for sunbeds; plenty are usually available later.
Allow extra time for the lifts, which can be problematic.
Fresh from a full refurbishment and reopening in spring 2026, Alua Linda Mallorca brings a polished, contemporary feel to Can Pastilla without losing its easy-going Mediterranean character. Its 189 light-filled rooms come with furnished terraces, while the outdoor space is arranged for unhurried holiday days: a main pool for activity, a quieter pool for downtime and a sun terrace with loungers. Live-cooking buffets, a lobby bar and poolside snacks keep things straightforward and sociable.
The hotel is a practical pick for families, couples and anyone wanting a calmer base close to Palma. Can Pastilla’s beach and local amenities are nearby, with a bus stop close at hand for getting around. Palma’s old town is around 10 minutes away and the airport about five minutes, making this especially convenient for short breaks. Breakfast or half board are available, and small dogs under 10kg can join on request for an additional fee. Yoga, aqua exercise and evening entertainment add gentle structure without making the stay feel hectic.
Guests often like the smart public spaces, clean presentation and pleasant pool areas, and many appreciate the convenient setting. Feedback is less uniform on service, however, and some visitors have found room details or extras—such as a kettle—to be less generous than expected. Occasional noise and inconsistent shower temperatures are also worth bearing in mind.
