Escape to Paradise: Bordoy Don Antonio, Mallorca's Hidden Gem
Escape to Paradise: Bordoy Don Antonio - Mallorca's Secret Getaway (A Messy, Honest Review)
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because I'm about to take you on a virtual jaunt to Escape to Paradise: Bordoy Don Antonio in Mallorca. Now, I'm not one for flowery prose, so let's just say this review is going to be… real. Think less perfectly curated Instagram post, more a chaotic yet informative diary entry. Consider this your definitive guide, with all the imperfections and delightful discoveries along the way.
Accessibility: A Mixed Bag, Kind of.
First things first: accessibility. This is crucial. They say they have facilities for disabled guests, which is grand. But, I'm not sure I'd declare it a fully-fledged accessibility superstar. You know how it is – "facilities" can mean a slightly wider door and a grab bar, which is better than nothing, but not exactly a red-carpet roll-out. Best to clarify your specific needs before you arrive.
Getting Around: Blissful Freedom (Except for the Airport!)
Okay, let's talk about freedom: freedom from car-related stress. They have car park [free of charge]! Yes! And, car park [on-site]! So no panicked scrambling for a space. And if you want to be fancy, you could use the Valet parking. And Airport transfer? A must. Though, fair warning: the initial taxi ride to the hotel…let's just say my bank account whimpered a little. Note to self: pack more euros next time.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: A Culinary Adventure (with a Few Snags)
Alright, food. Because let's be honest, that's half the reason we travel, right? So, Bordoy Don Antonio throws a lot at you… a lot.
- The Good Stuff: The restaurants themselves were a highlight. You've got your classic A la carte in restaurant, and the buffet in restaurant, which, I have to admit, I went for at breakfast more than once. Breakfast [buffet] is the way to go for maximum fuel for adventures. Oh, but the International cuisine in restaurant?! Delightful. I'm still dreaming about their paella. They have a Vegetarian restaurant, and even Asian cuisine in restaurant!
- The "Meh" Moment: The Happy hour was… well, it was happy! And there were Poolside bar, perfect for cocktails after a swim.
- A confession: I might have snuck a few extra pastries from the Breakfast takeaway service. Don't judge me; those croissants were heavenly.
Things to Do, Ways to Relax: Your Stress-Free Sanctuary
This is where Bordoy Don Antonio really shines. Forget your troubles, because relaxation is on the agenda.
- Spa Day, anyone? The Spa is… well, it’s the reason to go. Seriously. I went full-on indulgence mode, and it was glorious. The Body scrub, Body wrap, Foot bath, Sauna, Steamroom, Massage… pure, unadulterated bliss. I emerged feeling like a new human being, all my stress melted away. They even had a Pool with view, which, trust me, adds a whole new level of tranquility.
The Rooms: Your Private Haven (with a Few Quirks)
- The Essentials: The rooms are well appointed, with Air conditioning (essential in Mallorca!), Daily housekeeping, Free bottled water, and Wi-Fi [free]. Additional toilet? Bonus.
- Little Touches: They have Bathtubs, Coffee/tea makers, Hair dryers, In-room safe boxes, Mini bars all the necessities. The room was pretty quiet, thanks to the Soundproofing and Blackout curtains. Though my room had a slight "ancient plumbing symphony" at 3 AM, which was not ideal.
- My Personal Favorite: The Bathrobes and Slippers were absolute game-changers. There's nothing quite like padding around a hotel room in luxurious comfort.
Cleanliness and Safety: Prioritizing Your Wellbeing
In the post-pandemic world, you want to know they're taking it all seriously, right? Good news: Bordoy Don Antonio gets it. The Anti-viral cleaning products are a great sign, and they have Daily disinfection in common areas and Professional-grade sanitizing services. The staff are obviously trained in safety protocol.
Services and Conveniences: Making Life Easier
- The Perks: The Concierge was very helpful, the Laundry service a lifesaver, the Cash withdrawal was convenient. They also have Air conditioning in public area, and Elevator.
- The "Oh, I Forgot" Stuff: They have a Convenience store, so you can grab anything you forgot at home.
For the Kids: Family Fun!
Now, I'm not traveling with children, but I saw families, and they looked happy. They have Family/child friendly facilities, and Babysitting service, and Kids meal. Good stuff.
In conclusion…
Would I go back? Absolutely. Despite the minor quirks and the slightly questionable accessibility, Bordoy Don Antonio is a truly special place. It's a place to unwind, explore, and allow yourself to be truly pampered. If you're looking for a slice of Mallorcan paradise, I highly recommend it.

Batumi's Most Luxurious Apartments: Unbelievable Premium Class Living
Alright, buckle up buttercup, cause you're about to go down the rabbit hole of my (hopefully) not-entirely-failed trip to Bordoy Don Antonio in Mallorca. This ain't your grandma's itinerary; this is life, people. Prepare for sun, sangria, and probably a whole lot of "should haves."
Day 1: Arrival, The "Perfect" Plan Melts Faster than Ice Cream in July.
- Morning (ish) - Arrival & Hotel Haze: Landing at Palma Airport – OMG, the heat! I was immediately regretting my sensible shoes (a.k.a. orthopedic clodhoppers). The transfer to Bordoy Don Antonio was supposed to be smooth sailing, blah blah blah… We got a bit lost. Okay, I got us lost, mainly because I was busy gawking at the scenery and didn't pay attention to the GPS. My partner, bless his heart, just sighed. Check-in was a blur – I barely remember anything except the overly enthusiastic receptionist and the free welcome drink. It was probably sangria, but, honestly, it could have been dish soap the way I was feeling.
- Afternoon - Poolside Perils & Panic: Finally, the pool! I envisioned myself radiating effortless chic, sipping cocktails under a palm tree. The reality? Sunburn on my nose after ten minutes, struggling to get my inflatable flamingo to inflate (seriously, those instructions were written by a sadist), and watching a toddler terrorize the shallow end. Oh, and I dropped my sunglasses. Into the pool. Panic set in. I tried to salvage them with a stick. Didn't work. This felt like the start of some terrible, terrible omen.
- Evening - Dinner Disaster (Mostly Delicious): Dinner. Finally, dinner. We found a cute little tapas place near the hotel, "El Gato Alegre" (The Happy Cat – cute, right?). Ordered way too much, mostly because I couldn't understand the menu and everything sounded divine. The papas bravas were perfect – crispy, spicy, heaven in a little bowl. The octopus, though? Let's just say I maybe should have eaten less of it. My stomach had other opinions. Spent most of the night trying to convince it to cooperate. Definitely a rough start.
Day 2: Beach Day Blues & Artistic Attempts
- Morning – Beach Bliss…Briefly: Decided to hit Cala Millor beach, which, the pictures online looked gorgeous. Gorgeous lie! It was stunning, mind you, but also utterly packed. Finding a spot felt like winning the lottery. And getting to the sea? Forget it. The sand was hot, the water was cold and crowded with people (mostly playing volleyball), and I couldn’t find my book. So naturally, I was miserable.
- Afternoon – Artistic Aspirations (and a Whole Lot of Impatience): I’d packed a sketchbook, determined to capture the beauty of Mallorca. The first drawing attempt was a disaster that looked more like a blob than a seagull (my seagull skills are…lacking). I was getting mad at it, but then I got a little better. I am going to frame it when I get home. Its not a masterpiece, but it’s a piece of me.
- Evening – Sunset Sangria & Silly Smiles: Walked back to the hotel to enjoy the bar. The bartender, a charming guy with a ridiculously thick accent, suggested their special sangria. It was actually perfect as the sun dipped lower. We sat at the balcony of the hotel, content.
Day 3: Exploring Caves (and My Inner Claustrophobe)
- Morning – Cuevas del Drach: The much-hyped Cuevas del Drach (Dragon Caves). Sounded amazing! The reality? Beautiful, yes. Crowded, yes. Claustrophobic, yes. The boat ride across Lake Martel was truly breathtaking. The concert in the cave was even better. The water was a vibrant blue, the music was magical, the lighting… it was really, really pretty. But I kept flashing back to my claustrophobic panic. I got nervous if I looked down the bottom. But I still did it.
- Afternoon – Lunch & Lost in Translation: We stumbled upon a small restaurant in Porto Cristo – "La Tasca del Pescador" (The Fisherman's Tavern – sounds authentic, right?). The menu was entirely in Spanish. My Spanish is, let's say, "rudimentary". I pointed and made a lot of hand gestures. Ended up with… something that looked vaguely like paella but tasted suspiciously of fish bones. At least the wine was good.
- Evening – Hotel Relaxation & a Revelation: Decided to take it easy. Ordered room service (pathetically, I know). Watched a terrible movie on TV (dubbed in Spanish, even worse). And, for the first time all week, I actually felt… relaxed. Realized that maybe, just maybe, I didn't need to do everything. Just being was enough.
Day 4: Valldemossa's Vistas & a Very Questionable Pizza Decision
- Morning – Valldemossa's Charm: Headed to Valldemossa. This place – this was what I had imagined. Cobblestone streets, flower-filled window boxes, the whole nine yards. We wandered around, got lost in the narrow lanes, drank coffee at a café, and just soaked it all in. It felt like stepping into a postcard. I even bought a painting. It's terrible. I love it. The views from the monastery were absolutely spectacular.
- Afternoon – Pizza Procrastination: Lunch. We found a pizza place (because, apparently, I'm incapable of going a day without carbs). The pizza looked amazing. It tasted okay. I ate it anyway. Half of me wishes I spent the money on more tapas.
- Evening – Packing Pains & Pleasant Anticipation: Started (well, attempted) to pack. My suitcase looked like a bomb had exploded in a laundry basket. The thought of going home was both exciting and… a little sad. Mallorca had been a mess, a joy, a disaster, and a delight - all rolled into one. I'm looking forward to going home and telling everyone all the stories. Maybe I'll go back sometime in the future.
Day 5: Goodbye, "Hasta la Vista, Baby!"
- Morning – Last Breakfast & Lingering Regrets: One last breakfast. Another attempt at a decent cup of coffee. One last look at the pool I never properly swam in. A twinge of regret that I hadn't fully embraced the "siesta" thing.
- Afternoon – Departure & Delayed Postcards: Checked out. Airport chaos. Finally, on the plane. The postcards I bought still don't have stamps. Oh well.
Mallorca, you were… something. You were beautiful, you were frustrating, and you were totally, utterly unforgettable. Would I go again? Absolutely. Just maybe with a better sun hat and a little more Spanish. And a whole lotta more inner peace.
