Niu d'Aus is a small and simple three-pearl apartment complex set half way between the sleepy Porto Petro fishing village and laid-back Cala Egos resort. While part of the property underwent a makeover in 2016, the 18 one-bedroom apartments remain dated, with basic cooking facilities and spacious balconies -- many with lovely bay views. Features are limited to a small pool terrace and cafe-bar, though Wi-Fi is free throughout. Free on-site parking is useful, as most beaches and dining options are a bit of a walk away, so a car is recommended. While some enjoy the quiet, secluded vibe, the Apartamentos Parque Mar offer a comparable rate and set-up, but the property is closer to Cala d'Or resort center.

PURAVIDA Resort Blau PortoPetro is a huge luxury hotel with direct access to two small beaches, set in extensive pine-forested grounds that skirt Majorca's southeastern coastline. Its 319 homey rooms are spread around the vast resort, and can be far from facilities -- though golf buggies are always available. With a large spa, extensive sports and fitness activities, four swimming pools and as many restaurants, there's certainly no shortage of features -- if anything, it can all be a little overwhelming. Despite the resort's size, numbers can swell during conferences, and breakfast (which is usually excellent) can be prone to overcrowding. There is lots for the kids to do, making this a popular pick with families, though pricey dining can quickly add to the overall cost. For a more intimate upscale experience (with an all-inclusive option) consider the Melia Cala D'Or just up the coast.
