Many thanks for the updates on these apartments. We have had some lovely holidays in Oro Playa I do hope the refurbishment will be successfully completed in time. Any further updates will be much appreciated.

What week are you there?

Not until September.... hope you will find them spick and span for your holiday in June. Perhaps you can let me know how you get on . The apartments are ideally situated but have become rather run down of late. It is good news that they are to be refurbished . Good luck!

I think you might be confusing the Oro Playa with the Duva aparthotel on the roundabout at Gommar lollipop. The Oro Playa is on the old Formentor Road near the Voramar supermarket and Coral restaurant.

No Brisbane i think Lollipop was answering an earlier question about the Leo Apartments which are in Gommar

Thank you everyone. Does the Duva have a good reputation?

Most of the people i have spoken to who have stayed there were happy with it, but be aware that it is not as close to the beach and centre as the Oro Playa, it's a good 15/20 mins walk

Hi everyone. Hope your all well. Just wondering if the Playa Oro is looking close to opening 1st June. Thanks

We have just booked a superior apartment at the Oro.By the comments on here i might ask for a refund/relocation.Would appreciate if anyone can keep me informed about the refurbishments

Hi Clareld & Sleepyboaby,
We are currently in PP and have passed the Oro Playa every day. There still seems to be a lot of work going on both inside and outside. The foyer is still piled high with furniture and they were working on the pool and garden area yesterday. Have not been able to look inside though, so can't comment on the apartments themselves. Hopefully it will be finished in time for both of you.

Hi Lyndon,
Thanks for the latest update . Things are looking a lot more promising . I hope all will be fine for the start of Oro Playa season. I look forward to hearing further updates in June.

After searching for a reasonably priced break, in a good location, without the hassle of organising it all separately , I have booked Ora Playa today for 21st June.
I stayed at one of the other Mar hotels for the last 2 years, on their website it states that the first availability for Ora Playa is 1st June.
There is nothing available for Playa Mar till July. I liked Playa Mar for where it was, and it was nice walk to the town, but no bars to drop in on the way.
As long as the place is clean, I`m happy .. Fingers crossed X.
If it is newly opened then it should be - anyone agree with me on that.
I have stayed in some apts in Greece that were described as "quality" , but turned out to be far from it. Oh well it`s too late now, paid for .
There do seem to be some "iffy" reports, but also some very good ones, I guess people`s opinions vary.
In the end it`s not the hotel I`m coming for, it`s Pollensa itself.

Hi

Been reading the post about the oro playa, we have booked here for 10 days in August this year, having stayed there in August 2011. At the time our son was 2. I also read different/conflicting reviews on the place.

We were not disappointed (everyone has their own opinions), the rooms were nice and regularly cleaned, the staff very friendly, a nice pool, even the music on a night didn't really disturb us.

We tried to book up there for the end May last year, however it wasn't coming up on any searches, so we booked the Massol Appartments, just up the road. We walked passed the oro a number of time and noticed it was shut, by the end of the week there was a lot of activity getting it ready.

Our son is now 4 and Daughter is 1, looking forward to it now, only 75days to go!

Mike

I am informed that the long awaited refurbishment of the Ora Playa has begun! 2 of the 4 apartment blocks have been renovated (or will be by the time they open on 1st June)
This is why there are two different prices - the "Superior" apartments are the recently refurbished ones.
