Iberostar Waves Club Cala Barca

Visited this hotel in August 2024 and felt obligated to come back. Me and my family spent a week here this month, and we were pleased to find that the standard of service and experience is still exceptional. Firstly, the landscape of the hotel is fantastic, with multiple pools of varying depths for all children to enjoy, two padel courts, a large football pitch and a beach volleyball court. Secondly, the food is absolutely outstanding, with 4 restaurants offering an array of different dishes in order to suit everyone. Thirdly, the entertainment is great, with some form of show on every evening, each time finished by the hotel's anthem of Madre Tierra, which we all enjoyed dancing to. Furthermore, there are multiple bars located on the site for all-inclusive guests to enjoy a variety of beverages, as well as the sports bar which is a great place to play cards. Finally, the beach and excursions, which are a short walk from the hotel, are beautiful. In short, this hotel is amazing!

The rooms are clearly dated, barely AC. But you're not going there to stay on your room. The main beach is well shaded but rocky, mossy, and sometimes trash floating around, but it is great for seeing fish, hermit crabs and marine life. The other beach is slow slope, perfect sand but less shaded. However further down the right side and avoiding sea urchins is a great 10 and ~17 foot cliff jump spot just above an in-cut and cave near a low slope rock outcrop. Food is good and consistent, no complaints there. Staff is very helpful and plenty to do for kids and parents. Drink service is very limited to only about 10 drinks, don't ask for a Mai Tai, they don't now what it is. The consistency of the drinks varies between bartenders. They will even make the lemon daiquiri with limes instead of lemons. Definitely a great spot to forget the stress of trips and just sip Sangria all day.

We recently visited this resort as a last minute family holiday. We can’t recommend the hotel enough! The hotel itself is amazing and the facilities are great particularly if you have younger children. Ours are 3 and 4 and have had so much fun. The staff have been absolutely amazing too with Pani(y) helping us organise our trip to Palma and giving our girls some colouring books for the journey. He has been brilliant during our stay! I would also give a mention to Juan at the restaurant who has given us great service! Thanks again all. We’ll be coming back and recommending to everyone we can l!

We stayed at the Iberostar Club Cala Barca in June 2026. While the location is beautiful, our trip had some serious downsides that I wish I knew about beforehand. Here is what you should know: Food: If you’ve been to other Iberostar hotels, you might be disappointed. The food selection here is much more basic. Seafood is rare, and we only saw smoked salmon at breakfast once in 13 days. Also, there were very few berries or fresh fruits. But grilled fish was everyday The Room: The rooms really need an update. Our toilet broke during our stay and had to be fixed. Also, the furniture is not child-friendly—the corners of the bed in the living area are very sharp, and we kept bumping into them and getting hurt. Mini Disco: It happens at 5:30 PM by the pool, but it is way too crowded, slippery, and the music is extremely loud. My child was scared of the noise and the crowd, so we couldn't go. Health: Unfortunately, my child got a stomach infection at the hotel. She was sick with a high fever for three days, which really ruined part of our vacation. The good stuff: The hotel grounds are huge and lovely, with lots of pine trees and shade, which is great for walking. The view of the sea is amazing. The beach is nice, and the water is clean and warm. We really enjoyed the dining options, especially the Mediterranean restaurant -it’s much cozier and has a lovely terrace. The Mexican restaurant was also a very convenient place for lunch. We also liked the bar, the cafeteria, and the animation team, who were great. The shop on-site was very useful to have. The housekeeping team was excellent our room was cleaned every single day, which we really appreciated.
