As this was an 'allocation on arrival' booking, the hotel was a pleasant surprise, where we were greeted by the ever friendly staff. The food is edible, but rather repetitive and had been put through a blander!. The dishes tended to be swimming in oil too. Breakfast was generally better, but at busy times the queue for the toaster became annoying. The restaurant staff were always frindly however, and made up for the average nosh. As this was late in the season, the ents suited older couples. A guest singer/group would provide the 'hits' to which the clientele would boogie/line dance their night away. The occasional night of bingo was thrown in, but by then we'd found a bijou Irish bar on the outskirts, where we watched the sun setting on Menorca.

Hotel was not full, which probably didn't help with entertainment, which was poor. Pools nice.
Food was ok, but repetitive.
Staff fine and helpful.
Wouldn't go back, but not hotel's fault, resort very quiet.

Very clean hotel, food was good and plentiful although some items were a bit strange - but that's part of the fun.
Beds were a bit hard for our taste and only one pillow issued as standard, but extra pillows available.
Quiet location except for the millions of sparrows and pigeons that try to wake you up from about 5am! Main pool was VERY cold which is a shame as it would take little expense to run solar heating - kids pool was a bit warmer.
Staff were very friendly and helpful and seemed happy in their work. Entertainment was driven by a very energetic young couple from Finland who run competitions during the day - to win 'Diplomas' given out at night. Evening entertainment consisted of a kids mini disco at 8:30pm for half an hour - this was fun watching the small kids trying to follow the entertainers steps - but with the same songs night after night it became a bit of a joke. This was followed by bingo - one line and one full house - in four languages - but some amusing comments, such as "Six and Two - Sixty Two -Clickety Quack." This was followed at 10pm by a show of some kind, usually of good quality but your enjoyment would depend on your own taste, could use some comedy acts though. Beware the "Professional Show" night offered by the resort reps at 'Pedro's' - it is VERY loud and was considered a bit if a rip-off, especially if you are on all-inclusive terms. They give the kids their own tables, then tell them to ask their parents for 3 euros for face painting. They sell raffle tickets at 3 euros, to about 150 people, for prizes consisting of 4 various bottles of booze and 1 straw sombrero - how much did they make from that I wonder? There is no mention of face painting or raffle in the description, and the advert for 'Pedro's' in the brochure they give you gives a totally different description of the entertainment.
However, the full day trips out were considered ok by people we spoke to, it was a good opportunity to get a look round without the need to hire a car.
Overall, this was a good holiday that could have been so much better if the pool was heated. There is a good bus service from the hotel, full details from reception. Would we go again? To Menorca certainly, but probably to another resort - but only for the reason that we have now seen the western coastal area.

What a pleasant suprise to arrive at a hotel that didn't need cleaning. Staff very helpful and friendly. Felt very safe as our children were in a separate room opposite.
Food was plentiful, not always what we would choose but great English food outlets also on the doorstep.
Not many English, so it was quite a peaceful holiday. Pool very clean and whole area well maintained. Plenty of sunbeds.
Entertainment available, but don't rely on it. Bus routes very regular to Citadella, lovely place, lots of shops!!
The full day out on a catamaran is a must, well worth the money.
Very quiet resort, not everyones cup of tea, not lively enough if you want childrens clubs etc, suits couples more.
Going back June 05, with no children.
If you want a nice relaxing resort, with standards, this is an ideal choice, either relax by the pool or find your own entertainment.
