The View: What to Expect from Your Room

While it is not a direct, unobstructed oceanfront view,
booking a high-floor room gives you a beautiful blend of the city skyline and the ocean,
with the majestic Palma Cathedral visible on clear days.

The sunset colors reflecting over the city skyline are absolutely gorgeous.
Waking up to the soft morning light filtering through the windows
created the perfect romantic atmosphere for our honeymoon!
Meliá Palma Bay Breakfast: An Honest Review


The breakfast is served buffet-style!
✔ A fantastic variety of jamón, local cheeses, and fresh fruits
✔ Excellent selection of pastries, yogurts, and cereals
While it may not be overly extravagant, it has absolutely everything you need.
A truly foolproof breakfast spread!
Since it was our honeymoon, we booked the breakfast-included package,
and it was so convenient and delicious that we were highly satisfied.
Parking at Meliá Palma Bay

✔ Private underground parking garage on-site
✔ Approximately ~$22 to ~$27 per day (subject to seasonal changes)
✔ Can fill up quickly during the peak summer season
If you are planning a road trip around Mallorca with a rental car,
on-site hotel parking is an absolute lifesaver.
Street parking in downtown Palma is notoriously difficult to find,
and many zones have strict time limits,
meaning you could easily end up with a hefty parking ticket. But at Meliá Palma Bay,
you can park stress-free!
Who is Meliá Palma Bay Best For?
