eating out in santa eulalia

The OH and I have decided on santa eulalia for our holiday next june, however, we cannot decide on the type of accommodation to stay in. We have found a good deal for all inclusive (AI has never appealed to me regardless of the price) and we have also found a nice apartment for self catering.
So to help us decide can anyone advise us on the price of eating out in the resort for breakfast, snacks during the day and a meal at night.

  • Put it like this, madlyn. A few years ago, we decided to have an apartment instead of our usual half board as one thing Santa Eulalia excels in is restaurants of all prices and types. We only ate out at night time and we still spent hundreds of pounds more than staying in a hotel. We have now settled on a hotel that we love, but we love it despite it being all inclusive. It's such a reasonable price that it doesn't stop us eating out whenever we fancy a change. I realise that some people on AI feel that spending time away from the hotel is a waste of money, but we feel that our hotel is a good base for getting around, with very decent food and drinks if we decide to stay in. We still walk out every evening to spend time in the sea front bars. I can't really give you a definitive price for eating out all the time, as it depends entirely on what you like to eat, but it is on a par with the UK for drinks and restaurant meals on the whole. You can get good menu del dia deals however.

  • It is the Sirenis Club Siesta. We like its friendliness and small size, and the food is good. Although it's not located right in the middle of Santa Eulalia, it's not a long walk into town along the promenade, and has several bars and restaurants close by. It's also a short walk to a small local beach. There's a gang of us that go every year in June and we have a great time.
