I've just posted this in the Majorca forum and thought it would also be useful for this forum
I thought it would be interesting( and handy for newbies to Menorca) if we had a thread where regulars can give their opinions on which are the best resorts for various categories.
families?
couples?
clubbers?
getting away from it all?
prettiest resort?
most Spanish resort?
Pretty - Cala Galdana - gorgeous horseshoe shaped bay and lovely still sea
Clubbers - nowhere in Menorca - stay away - PLEASE!!!!
Cala n Bosch is ideal for families with younger children. It has such a lovely marina and a great beach. It feels safe, if you know what I mean.
There are plenty restaurants and bars for relaxing in and as Nic said - Menorca is not the place for clubbers!!
They have 3 hotels and some self catering apartments. No beach to speak of except a small rocky cove with sunbathing platforms.
The most child friendly resort would be Es Grau, the sea is so shallow, you would have to walk a long way to cover your knees! Only private self catering in that village though. Both thes places are in the south east of the island.
The most beautiful would be Cala galdana which is virtually in the middle of the island.
For me, it's Es Castell every time if you want to be with the locals.
Families: Cala 'n Bosch or the San Jamie area of Son Bou.
Couples: Cala Galdana, very scenic with a gentle atmosphere.
Clubbers: Your out of luck on this Island, go next door to Majorca.
Getting away from it all: Fornells, quaint fishing town in the North.
Prettiest resort: Binibeca, a 3km stretch of south coast which is mostly residential.
Most Spanish resort: Cuitadella, a strong Spanish feel with its narrow streets and working fishing town charm.

Most Spanish is Ciutadella-love it.
The prettiest - difficult one this but I'd opt for Playa de Fornells.
I don't get Cala Galdana-dominated by an ugly hotel opposite an ugly car park.
