Aparthotel Nelva Resort

We had a fantastic time staying at Nelva Resort, Cala’n Porter.
The rooms are fairly basic, but sufficiently equipped to make a great base for travelling and exploring. The Hotel is clean and the communal areas are tidy, especially the pool and restaurant areas.
Good choice of menu options and drinks from the Bar, and close enough to all the external restaurants and facilities when you choose to venture out. There are great beaches and restaurants within walking distance. The landscape and views are stunning and there are local supermarkets nearby for all your essential supplies.
Staff were really friendly and helpful – a special mention to Juan who looked after us.
Would definitely go again. Thank you everyone.

It is well located and close to the beach, however, not so close to the center of town so any visit to the supermarket requires a ride with the car. Staff were friendly and breakfast was fair. Two specific downsides for me — only one AC in every apartment so may get a bit warm in the bedrooms, and during our 3-night stay they never changed our towels nor cleaned the apartment (it’s a beach destination so it could get messy with sand inside). I would have expect for the price to have at least short and simple tidy up once a day.

We have just returned from a 12 night stay. After reading other reviews we were a bit worried about how it would all work out.
The positives were the location, easy of parking and the friendly staff who were fantastic.
However, there were some negatives.
There was only air conditioning in the lounge, which meant we had to keep all bedroom doors open at night to cool us down.
The coffee machine in the apartment was a nice touch, but wasn’t supplied with any coffee pods, not even say 4 complimentary ones — they had to be bought from the bar and were non standard pods (i. E not nespresso) so we couldn’t buy them from the supermarket.
The kitchen was difficult to cook for a family of 5 in. The apartment did have enough plates and pans and cutlery, all very clean, but at the same time there were only 3 chairs at the table which made eating meals as a family very difficult.
This hotel seemed to be popular with large groups so wasn’t quite the relaxing time we were after. It was often very noisy during the middle of the night when they came back from clubbing. It also became apparent that the pool wasn’t exclusively for residents, which meant that it got very busy in the afternoons, with lots of big groups and most not from the hotel.
The rooms were only serviced a few times and I don’t think our sheets were changed once during our stay — the beds were just made.
The apartment was clean but quite tired and needed an update, woodwork for example hasn’t been painted in years.

This is a good place to stay if you like to move around the island and comeback to a more quieter area, beach Cala Porter is few minutes away walking but also has parking available. Two things I didn’t like was that the air conditioning is in the living room/kitchen and the rooms can get very warm and the air flows very slowly. The kitchen was closed and only served food after 7 or something I can’t remember the schedule but keep that in mind. The staff was brilliant, the bar staff one called ‘Juan’ made the best coffee 🫶🏼

Pretty good quality to price ratio. The rooms could use some attention, but nothing that detracted from our experience. The location is excellent, has beautiful views and it's walking distance to the shopping area of Cala en Porter. Staff was kind and helpful.

Absolutely wonderful experience. Great apartment, incredible view of the resort and the Cala from our balcony. Toni was wonderful when checking in and to guide us with places to visit. Marta in the restaurant was also super helpful and gave us great recommendations. We would stay here again without a doubt. Restaurant was also great and had live music on Thursday. I'm so glad we chose Nelva Resort. I have already recommended it to other. Thank You for the hospitality!

I cannot fault this venue. Customer service was great, the apartment was really clean, facilities were all so clean, fresh towels during our stay, good food in the bar, an overall perfect getaway for my family of 4. Will definitely revisit.

Very nice place, staff very friendly and helpful, very clean and the food we had was to a high standard, would definitely go back.

Superb aparthotel, had a lovely room on 2nd floor with the sun all day on the balcony. Spotless clean and very spacious apartment. Great staff, lovely food, nice pool with plenty sunbeds. Great location in Cala n Porter. Highly recommend and hope to be back next year.

Although we didn't stay here we had a lovely evening meal on one night and breakfast on our last day. Great staff.

Lovely little gem, hidden bavk end of cala en porter. The apartments have everything you need. And it's so peaceful. Never once did we struggle for sunbeds. In fact we regularly had the place to ourselves. Would visit again. Only down sides. The kettle is small and their is a smell from bathroom.

Great apartments! Clean, close to the cala and restaurants and the staff is very friendly. Best option in Cala en Porter for that price.

Have just returned from a bank holiday girls weekend. What a lovely little resort with the friendliness feel and team.
A lovely collection of apartments with pretty tiled roofs and clustered around a lovely pool a and landscaped gardens.
Rooms were spacious, the resort must be a number of years old but the rooms have been decorated and kept current. There was air conditioning in the lounge area, but not in the bedrooms which might be an issue in high summer but was fine in May.
The location is in Cala En Porter, 10 mins from the lovely bay but reached by steep steps so not for those with any mobility issues. The resort is close to a few restaurants but it is in quite a quiet residential area.
Staff everywhere in the resort were fabulous, so friendly and helpful and have fun with the guests. A lovely little gem of a resort.

Stayed here in September for a long weekend with a group of friends. The location is great and is in a nice quiet part of the resort. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful at all times. The pool was very nice and clean. We only had breakfast there on our stay, but it was very good. I would stay here again.

I read many of the reviews for the Nelva Resort before booking our short break here and I'm very happy that I did choose it. Short taxi ride from the airport and we were quickly settled into our 2 bed apartment before heading to the onsite pool. We loved our stay here and all the staff were really friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend the breakfast and we also enjoyed getting a couple of takeaway lunches from the restaurant as well as dinner there twice during our stay. The live music evenings are fantastic and well worth getting a table for as they are very popular. Overall, a highly recommended place to stay.

My family, including our two year old toddler, stayed at Nelva Resort for three nights at the end of June. We absolutely loved the friendly and relaxed atmosphere throughout the resort, which made our stay very enjoyable.
The swimming pool was a highlight, with plenty of sun loungers and a well maintained and clean environment. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The huge blackout curtains were a welcome addition and effectively kept the room cool. The only downside we noticed was a lingering unpleasant odour of sewage in the bathroom, which slightly detracted from our overall experience.
The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The food in the restaurant was always served quickly and tasted good, and a small children's play area with toys was a big plus. From our apartment it took about 10 minutes to walk down the steps in the centre of town to the best beach. The walk back to the resort took a little longer as we didn't dare use the steps, but there was a lovely gelateria to stop at which broke up the 20 minute journey.
I would highly recommend this resort, especially for families with young children.

We were a group of eight ladies on a short weekend break just before the full season started. From the very warm welcome to the beautiful, clean and well equipped apartments with little balconies overlooking the pool, everything was perfect. Top tips if travelling with carry on luggage : our bathroom had complimentary soap, shampoo and shower gel, a hairdryer and diffuser. Plus there's a supermarket walking distance for tea, coffee water etc. The breakfast buffet was ample (loved the huge sourdough bread, pineapple juice and tasty pastries! ), the pool was gorgeous with comfy sun loungers, and we had a lovely lunch and amazing sangria on our first afternoon. The owner, Jose, was the perfect host and nothing was too much trouble for him. We were already talking about returning before we left! Calan Porter is stunning and only 12 minutes drive from the airport. Thank you Jose and Nelva Resort for being the perfect base from which to explore and enjoy Calan Porter.
