Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
Everything was excellent during our stay. The only thing that didn’t happen was the transfer back to the airport as the Hopper bus arranged didn’t contact us or confirm pick up so we got a taxi which was not a problem.
A big thank you to Sean for booking another exceptional holiday for us, the hotel was one of the best we have stayed in, and would definitely recommend it.
Always get good service and have had many flights arranged by Des and team.
Excellent support when we had problems checking in online. Professional and reassuring
Get Heathrow to vastly improve their disability assistance, it is woefully inadequate when compared with countries we have visited, but also Gatwick.
Excellent service
So refreshing to have calls and queries answered immediately and by someone who is not in a faraway call centre.
Super service as always
We were very satisfied with your service.
Jade was exceptional. Your company is the industry benchmark
Lovely to deal with and you couldn’t make it easier to look forward to a holiday.
As usual, first class support from Darryll
Everything was perfect and the hotel recommended by Kennedy was exactly what we requested
Friendly, knowledgeable and approachable even if you have a limited budget
It was good to have someone from DialAFlight to talk to, making bespoke arrangements and dealing with problems.
Heathrow was closed whwn we were due to fly home but DAF were able to find an alternative flight - great effort.
Cody had reorganised a holiday that we had to cancel at short notice at Christmas. Everything went smoothly as it always does with DialAFlight and we enjoyed a week in Madeira. Can’t thank him enough.
There was no snow, where we stayed, apart from that everything was good
Always spot on
Fantastic choice of hotel. All went smoothly. We had a lovely holiday.
While I was in the Algarve I did recommend a couple I met out there to DialAFlight and they say they are going to give you a call.
Very good service, just as I remember it. I have only once had a poor experience about three years ago but this time was excellent and helpful
Very helpful and well organised as always making the trip effortless on our part
Very many thanks - as always
As always brilliant
When we had a problem, Adam was on hand to help. That is one measure of a good business.
A number of hotel suggestions were made, all of which were good but one in particular stood out and proved perfect for our needs.
Will definitely use DialAFlight for my travel from now on
Another well organised experience
Always there for me
There is so much more to Mallorca than Magaluf. I had never been to the largest of the Balearic Islands before heading to picturesque Port de Soller and, admittedly, prior to my visit, the first (and only) thing I associated with Mallorca was the infamous resort town.
However, from the picturesque hill-top location of the Jumeirah Port Soller Hotel and Spa, which is nestled among the Tramuntana mountain range, you'd be hard-pressed to believe you're on the same planet, never mind the same island.
Just a 30-minute drive north from Palma Airport, this five-star hotel houses 121 sea or mountain facing rooms spread across 11 buildings. All boast a private balcony or terrace, complete with a cushioned sunbed to take utmost advantage of the sea views.
The casual bistro specialises in seafood and regional tapas, including several varieties of paella, but it's the location - at the highest point of the resort - that is its most noteworthy feature.
Book in for supper to enjoy the sunset views over the Mediterranean. The resort's Cap Roig is a more formal affair known for its fresh local seafood and impressive tasting menu that changes seasonally.
While it may be tempting to lounge by one of the hotel's two infinity pools, a 10-minute walk down the hill leads you to the small harbourfront town of Port de Soller, home to the only beach of note along Mallorca's north west coast.
There's a promenade lined with cafes, touristy shops and plenty of water sport and climbing rental facilities.
The area's known for its cycling routes, one of the more famous being the Coll de Soller, which crosses the Tramuntana and connects Palma with the port of Soller. In fact, the resort of Alcudia in the north is a favourite of Britain's pro cycling team, Team Sky, during the winter months due to its challenging landscape.
While I'm the type of person who prefers an exercise bike to a brutal uphill climb, my travelling partner did - successfully, I might add - take on the 38-mile ride, which included 55 switchbacks and six miles of incline.
The area is also a great base for walks and hikes, such as the hour-long trail that takes you to the Cap Gros lighthouse, offering panoramic bay views. For those who prefer to go further afield, there are plenty of tour companies offering Tramuntana mountain treks, both in organised groups and privately guided walks.
On Saturdays, a gentler walk will lead you to Soller town centre where you can take advantage of the extensive pop-up marketplace. Don't want to walk? A tram runs along the promenade to town, about three miles away.
Until mid-afternoon, you'll find everything from jewellery to local artisan goods and fruit - the area is famed for its Navel and Canoneta oranges. In both Port de Soller and Soller, there are also plenty of al fresco dining options available too. And, conveniently, Jumeirah runs a regular shuttle service into town.
Another highlight of the sprawling Jumeirah Port Soller is the Talise Spa which boasts a hydrotherapy pool and ice cave. There are regionally-focused treatments too that give a nod to the citrus groves, almonds and olive oil native to the area.
One thing's for sure: a stay here will banish any preconceived notions you may have once had about the infamous Spanish island. And, for the record, I still have not been to Magaluf.
