Top Cala Deia Hotel Reviews

Hoposa Costa D'Or - Adults Only

Hoposa Costa D'Or - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"Pros: view, extremely quiet, great food, staff was awesome. Cons: driving to this location can be a nightmare if you are uncomfortable with tight streets and windy roads. The road down to the hotel from the Main Street is basically a two way 1 lane road, so if someone is coming up when you are going down it can be a challenge. If you are not driving or are not bothered by that possibility then I would 100% recommend this property."

"Really enjoyed my stay. The kitchen made caring for babies so much easier. The only confusion was we were told we had to pay cash for food or bar items at the pool and could not use our credit card but in the end we found out you can. They have poolside bar with ice cream and all kinds of snacks and drinks on honor system always available"

"This is a beautiful property. There are stunning views and many lovely places to sit and enjoy the atmosphere of such an amazing house. The pool is magnificent and cleaned regularly. All the rooms are comfortably furnished and cleaned to a high standard. The kitchen is very well equipped with patio doors leading to a very beautiful, private courtyard with large table for family dining.If you have a car you need to be aware that the driveway is steep but you can drive straight into the large garage. Deia is a lovely little town with well-stocked supermarket (delicious pastries) and very nice restaurants.Communication at all stages was excellent. Anne Marie responded immediately to all queries. Ines, the housekeeper, met us on arrival and was extremely helpful."

"We had a magical stay at the villa. The outside space is beautiful and the pool is amazing. The inside space is clean and cozy and the space gets wonderful light throughout the day. We were able to cook at the house or walk down to town for dinner and drinks. There is air conditioning in all the rooms but two bedrooms but even in 90 degree weather, all the rooms were comfortable. We loved our stay! Carol was very responsive."
