Hotel Roca Bella

The Roca Bella, is one of those hotels that let its views and natural beauty speak for themselves. It was built in the 1950s, and its architectural design has rounded arches and whitewashed walls amid a sea of blue. Simple elegance, standing proudly on a rocky peninsula that overlooks the fields of Posidonia that reach out to Ibiza. The air quality is amazing, fresh, crisp and invigorating. I was there to recharge my batteries after the closing parties in Ibiza, and I was so happy I stayed there. I love classical hotels, and my room was just that. High ceilings, tiled floors and a large terrace looking out over a small bay dotted with traditional fisherman huts. I was surrounded by the stereo sounds of the sea; to my right, views out to Ibiza and to my left, views inland to Formentera and Es Pujols. This was nature in its purest form. As it was October, I experienced stormy seas, windy nights, hot sunny days and beautiful sunsets, all from the comfort of my whitewashed terrace. My bed was so comfortable, and I slept soundly every night. The room fittings were simple, staying loyal to its classical personality, and the owners deserve much credit for protecting the old character of the hotel. Too many hotels suffer from modern makeovers, and very few strive to protect and preserve the past. The Roca Bella is a shining example that less is more. The staff were a pleasure to deal with. Warm, welcoming and not in your face. They were always there if you needed them and discreet if you didn't need attention and just wanted to be by yourself. The Hotel was spotless, the cleaners were working up until 7 pm in the evenings and in the mornings, they were smiling and warm at breakfast. which was above average. Fresh fruit, breads, sweet pastries, cereals, yoghurts, fried and scrambled eggs, bacon, and cold meats, including Serano ham teas and coffees. It's a Balearic breakfast, so don't expect your traditional English Fry. The Balearics love their pastries, cold meats, and toasts with cheese, ham, and tomato paste for breakfast, as do the Italians, the biggest demographic visiting this hotel. Watching the sunrise as you sip your morning coffee was an unexpected surprise. The restaurant next to the hotel enjoys privileged views over the beach, and the food and service are above average. The menu is simple, but you will easily find something to eat. I tried the menu del dia one evening and had the best dish of my holiday, a prawn seafood-flavoured pasta dish that bursts with flavour and freshness. In restaurants like this, it's always good advice to try the chef's special of the day. The fresh fish dishes will not disappoint. Service was warm and friendly, with attentive, smiling staff. The main attraction of this elegant hotel is its privileged location. It's the gateway to the famous beaches of Ses Illetes, and the natural, raw energy of the place soothes and calms. Waking up to the sounds of the waves washing up on the rocks was another refres

I can't believe this Hotel is only one Star ?? Fantastic hotel, situation,breakfast buffet was absolutely incredible. Staff brilliant, Restaurant first class. If you ever find yourself staying at "Roca Bella" I promise you will not be disappointed. I shall certainly return..many thanks.

I booked a single room but was lucky to be given a triple room . It had everything I needed and the most stunning sunset views from the balcony ! The breakfast had a wide variety of continental breakfast choices plus bacon fried egg, scrambled egg and boiled eggs. Lots of fruit and the coffee was great ! Staff at reception were helpful and room cleaned daily to a high standard . Hope to be back !

Its a good property but needs a renovation...

Old and a little dirty.

Location and staff were great

In a quiet pocket of Es Pujols but an easy walk into the action. Loced that it was waterfeont and could hear the waves so serene. Also has beach access in a nice little cove with warm calm water. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The property was very clean.

Fantastic location right on an incredible beach, with stunning views across the bay. A smal but ideal swimming pool is a welcome treat in the sunshine. Affordable, value for money, lovely breakfast and a convenient bar/restaurant next door, serving fresh fish and salads. Lovely boardwalk takes you into busier area with bars, shops etc, this could do with lighting, as almost impossible to see when sun went down. Overall a fantastic hotel, great location and helpful staff. Would recommend asking for one of the newly upgraded rooms, that we only found out about when we checked out. We would definitely return

This property is situated directly on the sea with wonderful decks on the rooms with the best views around.
