Pool area didn't seem to be cleaned at all.
Didn't use bar or kitchen equipment so can't comment on these.
Lots of steps but we didn't mind.
It was ok here, though basic, would stay again.

The food at the bar was excellent and good value. Bep and Monica who ran the bar were very helpful and friendly. Football matches are shown in the bar area on Sky TV, so this went down well with the men in our party.
The beach is a pleasant 15 minute walk away. Excellent bars and restaurants (and supermarkets) are within a few minutes walk.
The steps in the complex didn't bother us as we were prepared for them!

The bar menu itself was excellent which included steak,mussels,prawns,chicken,gammon, and a wide variety of pastas and genuinely for us was the best meals we had while on the resort breakfast is also superb again our favourite.
There are a lot of steps and not suitable for elderly people (90 from top to bar/pool area then 160 to the bottom from pool)in fairness that takes you on to the main street but we were at the top and didnt mind them (and im not the fittest).
The bar also shows most live sporting events football and F1 to mention a couple and an amazing selection of music and music videos pool table and pinball.
The apartments were big and clean with an amazing view although the maid only came once through the week, also very secure. The pool was massive and well kept with plenty beds and a fantastic view.

Insist on a bottom of the hill apartment when booking when we arrived we were given one top of the hill right next to road noisy and very tiring, requested bottom of hill and were moved immediately. Excellent holiday

The apartments are situated in lovely surroundings within a gorge, however some roadworks spoiled the view for us, and they seemed to stay the way they were not much work was actually being done.
We were lucky as we were situated at the bottom of the hill. The majority of apartments wehere higher up, and as an example for us to get to the bar & pool we had to climb 120 steps! This isn't so bad if you are having a break when you get there but the rep took us there to book in, and then we had to lug cases to the room.
The Direct Holidays Rep Joanne, was not very helpful as we advised her of a missing rail where the steps where and nothing got done about it. This missing rail was in a very dangerous place aswell. I also had other problems regarding broken medical equipment which did not get sorted out.
All in all we had a good holiday, and Menorca is a lovely island.
Cala Galdana itself is a lovely place although quite contained. You really need to be able to drive if you are staying for a two week holiday. We did and it was well worth it. It made our holiday for us.

Cala Galdana itself is a lovely place although quite contained. There is lots going on in the square every evening and you can go into the main hotel which also has entertainment every evening.
In the centre of the resort is a restaurant with water slides and a mini golf. This is excellent fun for the children, although the waiters were not very pleasant, some just grunted when you gave your order.
The beach is fantastic and is well worth spending time on. The floor never seems to drop so the children are exceptionally safe.
If you like your food then visit Es Barranc and see Edward and the gang, their Cordon Bleu is fantastic, and there chicken breast with pepper or chesse sauce is equally good, and very reasonably priced. There is also Paseo Maritimo, these serve a Menu of the Day, which is 10.55 euros and is absolutely huge. The starter is a main meal by itself, and it is also very nice.
