Hotel Galaxia is a two-pearl, '60s-era property that combines rough, rustic charm with a convenient resort-center location one block from busy Ca'n Picafort beach. Its 60 guest rooms are either nicely modernized with a clean contemporary finish, or seriously dated with old-fashioned furnishings, though many feature sea views and all benefit from free Wi-Fi. Lack of in-room air-conditioning is a major shortcoming, plus there's a charge for fans. A basic pool terrace provides space to sunbathe and cool off, and there's a choice of buffet or a la carte dining in a pleasant bar-bistro. Rates here generally offer excellent value for money, though families with kids on a budget will likely favor the child-friendly facilities of Hotel Roc Continental Park just up the coast.

The THB Gran Playa is an upscale, adult-only hotel with a polished yet laid-back vibe positioned just two minutes' walk from Ca'n Picafort beach. All 177 guest rooms benefited from a 2016 overhaul and are bright, clean, and contemporary -- space can feel limited, but some upper floors feature sea-view balconies. Relaxation facilities include a small, secluded pool and a spa featuring sea-view sauna and steam rooms. Buffet dining is good quality with plenty of variety and barista-made coffee. For couples who prefer their stay to be child-free and beach to be close by, it's a strong overall pick. For a la carte dining and a larger pool, the Garden Holiday Village in neighboring Playa de Muro is another adult-only hotel worth considering (though it's set away from the beach).

The 310-room upscale Hotel Platja Daurada is a spacious, family-friendly resort hotel centered around a cluster of huge, beautiful pools, and is within a minute's walk -- over a wooden bridge -- to Ca'n Picafort Beach and a 10-minute walk to the center of town. There are programmed activities for all ages throughout the day, but guests seeking a quiet, restful vacation may find the crowds, organized cheer, and loud electronic dance music intrusive. Bathrooms and guest rooms, which include apartments with kitchenettes, were updated in 2013, and are clean, pretty, and simply decorated. Another family-friendly resort to consider could be the Holiday Village Majorca - Protur Monte Safari, which was also renovated in 2013, but it's farther from the beach.

The 285-unit mid-range Zafiro Can Picafort is an apartment hotel with all-inclusive options, catering to families with kids. There are a full slate of activities for adults, and a large pool complex that includes a pirate ship water park for kids. The apartments are all spacious, clean one-bedrooms, with a variety of layouts and private balconies or gardens (some with swim-up access); bathrooms are modern and roomy. The a la carte and buffet dining options, games room and sports fields, coin laundry, and full grocery store also contribute to this property's family-friendly appeal. Another property with kid appeal travelers could consider is the Hotel Eix Platja Daurada, though rates tend to be higher.

The Eix Alzinar Mar Suites is a modern upper-middle-range resort set on the edge of Ca'n Picafort on Majorca's northeast coast. Revamped in 2016, the property feels bright and contemporary, and its adults-only environment adds to the peaceful vibe -- although apart from overall tranquility, this property can lack atmosphere. Most of its 125 rooms are spacious junior suites all with lounge areas and balconies overlooking the huge central pool. With just a buffet restaurant and snack bar, on-site dining is limited plus there's little in the way of health or sports facilities. A 10-minute walk to the beach also means the location isn't exactly ideal. Another child-free option that's closer to the beach is the Hotel THB Gran Playa, which also has a spa though a smaller pool.

Exagon Park is a mid-range hotel occupying a 285-room building dating back to the '60s. While interiors have been updated in parts, most of the property still feels dated. Rooms are particularly old-fashioned, and amenities are limited to small flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and hairdryers. Views over the neighboring river and pine forest from higher levels, however, are genuinely spectacular. It's a quiet location on the outskirts of the Ca'n Picafort resort, though the beach is easily reachable on foot. Highlights include a large pool set in spacious, serene gardens, plus there's a wellness center and dining is more than passable. Ultimately, if the lackluster rooms aren't a deal breaker, it's a great option for a laid-back stay surrounded by nature. Otherwise better rooms closer to the resort center and beach can be found at the adult-only Hotel THB Gran Playa.

The three-and-a-half-pearl Zafiro Mallorca is a super family-friendly apartment complex set on the outskirts of the small resort of Ca'n Picafort. The location is not ideal, with nothing in the immediate area, and the beach and resort center a good 10 minutes away on foot. There's plenty on-site to keep families happy, however, with a range of pools, kids' clubs, and an extensive animation program. The 252 apartments are roomy and well-maintained -- if a little dated and poorly soundproofed -- with kitchenettes, free Wi-Fi, and outdoor space. Ultimately, there's little of interest for vacationing couples here, while families who like the beach should consider the Hotel Eix Platja Daurada, which offers direct access to the coast.
