    Traveler rating:
    Ibiza: Hotel Cafe Del Mar II: "Horror Hotel - dont stay there the staff rob u."
    christie156, derbyshire Oct 4, 2006





    My experience with this property took place in:
    September, 2006
    Would I recommend this hotel to my best friend? no way!
    My ratings for this hotel are:

    Value
    Rooms
    Location
    Cleanliness
    Check in / front desk
    Service
    Business service
    I selected this hotel because ... Beach / Sun, Theme / Amusement park, Great food / Wine

    My age: 18-24
    Traveling group: Spouse / significant other
    My visit was for: Quality time with friends
    Me and my partner arrived the early hours of the 18th of September 2006 at the del mar. and the receptionist i think had to put in a lot of effort to get himself up from sleeping on the sofa to actually check us in. After reluctantly checking us in, all he did was point towards a couple of corridors and i presume that and the grunting sound that came from his mouth meant your room is in that direction.
    The next couple of days went smoothly, although the pool was closed, which obviously couldnt be helped. But then on the Wednesday night we went out for dinner around 8-9pm as usual, then returned around 4-5am got up to the room, my suitcase had been slashed open to see if they could find anything in it, around £1000 worth of cash, two expensive mobile phones, a camcorder and a digital camera, although they left my Mp3 player and decided to steal a pair of my pants, strangely enough. After we had actually taken it all in that we had been robbed, we stormed down to reception and it was the same person who checked us in, slightly more helpful this time, as he rang the police and we were told we had to wait 3 hours for the police station to open. So we stayed up in reception waiting for the police station to open, with all of 65 euros that we had left, and out of that i had to buy something to get my luggage home in.
    So three hours later we went to the police station, and the police were not very interested or helpful either. After that despite being pennyless and unable to fully enjoy the rest of our holiday, we just got on with things, and then on the last day i asked a different receptionist if we could keep the room on and if they would let us do it free of charge, and the girl really didnt want to help us, in the end I had to kindly remind her that we were the couple that were robbed of all our money and it was most likely one of the hotel staff that had done it because there was no forced entry, and the least she could do is let us keep our room on for a few extra hours, and in the end she did so.
    Overall after my experiences and talking to other guests at the hotel I wont ever dream of even giving it as an option to any of my clients when selling them a holiday, and think you should know what a horrible hotel it is and what rude, thieving, untrustworthy, unhelpful staff it employs. Plus it has ended up being one of the most expensive holidays!!

    i would'nt lock my case though. i think your best leaving it open and keeping you $£$£$ and passport somewhere safer. obviously theifs are gonna break to enter if they want to get into your belongings!
