Hotel Levante




If you like your holiday set to the soundtrack of the sea, you’ll love this hotel. Pulled right up against Cala Bona Beach, the Levante looks out across the blue waters of the Med. And that’s not all on the location front – shops and restaurants are within easy walking distance, too

In terms of the hotel itself, it’s got a great pool scene. Surrounded by a yawning sun terrace dotted with sunbeds and parasols, it makes the most of those stellar sea views. And glossy palm trees complete the poolside picture.

Inside, the Levante is bright and fresh and uses pale-wood furnishings to good effect. The bar has an almost cruise ship feel while the buffet restaurant is a vision of crisp white table cloths. It boasts floor-to-ceiling windows as well, so you can dine while gazing out to sea. In terms of food, there’s plenty to choose from – everything from local dishes to home-from-home favourites. Plus there are two themed gala dinners every week.

As for the bedrooms, they’re decorated in soft, neutral tones and come with satellite TVs, air-conditioning and fridges or minibars. All of them have balconies and, for a small supplement, you can upgrade to a sea-view room. On the facilities front, the Levante is great for pampering. There’s a Turkish bath and a sauna, not to mention two Swedish-style hot tubs. Sunk into a wooden decking, these twin whirlpools look out to sea. If you want to shift things up a gear, there’s also a gym and as a guest here you can use the tennis courts at sister hotel, the Levante Park.

Of course, the Levante Hotel is part of the couples-only Thomson Gold range, which means you can expect plenty in the way of top entertainment. In the evenings, sit back and enjoy a mixture of live music, cabaret and professional shows. Put simply, if you’re looking for a beachside hotel with plenty to do, this place is hard to beat.
