I traveled here with my husband and three children aged 2, 4, 8. We had such a great holiday everthing was perfect.
Brill location for getting food in the evening.
Accomodation was great never seen such a great kitchen in self catering even had a dish washer!
Complex was excellent 5 swimming pools and entertainment at the main pool all day if you want it. Kids club was great my two wanted to go all the time!
Entertainment staff from thompsons where on the go all day there was one who was new to the job but you would not have guesed it he was brill!!
Shame to come back but have been recomending it to all the people I know.
We stayed in S block which i think is the best 8 apartments with a pool to our selves very often there was no one beside it was like staying in villa but we could walk to entertainment.
All I can say is go!

We were checked in very quickly. Our rooms were across the road in R block. They were quite modern and clean. Even though we should have only had 2 one bedroom apts we were actually given 2 two bedroomed apts on the ground floor which was great for the two elderly. Plenty of space and the bathroom was very big. The linen and towels were changed twice during our one week stay.
We never ate at the Talayot so can't comment on that.
Entertainment was ok.
Pools were great.
Would stay at these apts again. Was a bit concerned after reading other reviews but it was great. No problems whatsoever. Thanks Taylayot for a great holiday.

Stayed at Taylots for a week with our 3 children. reading reports below I cant quite belive that people are talking about the same place!
Kidzone for the kids was brilliant Magic Mark as my kids would say is the coolest and the kidzone girls were fantastic!
Jumpin Jenny the rep bent over backwards to help us throughout our stay and my wife enjoyed talking the ears off her the poor girl but truly a credit to her company.
Two entertainers who said they hadn't work together all season and had only just been put together this would be my only gripe as they work brilliantly together. Desperate Dan was funny and seeing him in a dress I nearly wet myself and Hyper Hannah has to be the best bit about the place. So frendly and caring and again a real credit to the company. If you see this Hannah say hello to Caveman Carl who I think was a rep?
Overall a brilliant holiday that I would recommend to anyone.

Just returned from a weeks stay at the Talyot, 1st impressions were good, reps and staff really friendly, excellent location with a Spar supermarket just over the road(which is quite reasonable)until we were shown to our room K1. It was dark damp and stinking not what you want with a 6 month old baby in tow, but spoke to reception and we were moved straight away to Block F room 5, and it was lovely newly refurbished plenty of space just what we were expecting.
Beds were really comfy, cot and mattress for baby were in excellent condition and also from reception hired a baby walker 2euros per day and a travel cot to use outside as a playpen for 3euros a day which kept baby happy.
Pools were clean and ideal for little ones, and plenty going on for the older children/adults such as quizzes, tug of war and chicken licken to name but a few.
Plenty of sun loungers although there was a charge of 1 euro 75 for each bed but you got a free soft drink from the pool bar for that.
Didn't eat in the hotel but spoke to plenty who did and said it was very good. Lots for children to do Kids clubs seemed really good although my little one was too little to join.
Hotel entertainment average aimed at the kids who all seemed to be enjoying it.
Only gripe is that if you empty your bin before the cleaner does they ask you to put the rubbish in "The green bins" meaning the big wheelie bins outside the hotel but unfortunately this is the colour of the small waste bins located around the complex and everyone tries to cram their rubbish in them so the poor little pool boy seems to be constantly emptying them.
We had a really nice time and would go back next year especially as little one could join in a little more.

Just arrived back from a week at the Talayots. On arrival we were told we were staying in the notorious 'X' block, (X33) as previously reviewed. However, looking at the site map we were given, X block isn't wholly situated above the pub and not all affected by noise. We were not affected whatsoever by noise.
During our week stay the towels were changed once, linen only on arrival, and floor was quite dirty towards the end of the holiday, so not sure how often the floors were cleaned.
Location of the apartments was very good. Within easy access of restaurants, good supermarket and bars.
Because of the resort layout, the beaches of Cala'n Blanes, Cala'n Forcat, Cala'n Bruc and Cales Piques can all be reached within 10 minutes walk.
Reception is open 8am to 10pm. Staff were helpful and spoke good English. Check-in was all very quick too and we were shown straight to our apartment even though there were quite a few other people checking in too.
Can't comment about hotel food or entertainment as we went out of the complex every night, but there seemed to be a lot happening.

Stayed at the hotel on a self-catering basis so cannot comment about the food, although heard that it was good.
The location of the hotel is good - just a short walk from the resort centre.
On arrival was given a room in X Block but asked to be changed straight away, we were given a room in B Block which was fine, spacious and clean. We did have a problem with ants (even on the 2nd floor) and informed reception who dealt with the problem straight away. Upon returning home my son was diagnosed with severe impetigo which having read other reviews from this site he has contacted from the hotel pool.
I would not use this hotel again.

On first arrival to this complex we thought it was not too bad, then we got showed to our room M1, what a dump!! Very very dissapointed for the price we paid, the window was rotten in the bathroom, very old fashioned and lots of little visitors (ants)! We were right next to the entertainment room which belted out till 12.30 everynight so our toddler had plenty of sleep (not)! Also M1 is right next to the baby pool (which was fine, or so we thought) we tried to let our son have his first expereince of a pool but due to the fact of older kids running and jumping in it was not a pleasant experience (there were 3 other pools for the bigger kids) it was also dirty and noisy at night when the fountain came on!!
The food in the hotel was well below average.
The hoteliers did not think about where they were putting people as there were so many complaints, an older couple we met were put in X block above the parrot pub which belted out till 5am!!
We also went through the reps to hire a car, oh my word you should have seen the state of the inside, the child seat we had to fit ourselves and was pitted in baby sweat and all the seats, front and back were covered in white sweat marks from previous punters so we had to have towels to cover the seats before we could sit on them, yuk!
We will never use Thompson Superfamily again!

Talayots need a good clean up generally; bins not emptied regularly enough and cat poo in the sand pit.
Stayed in Block A, room upstairs - ideal if you have a toddler due to ground floor patios not being enclosed. Apartment old fashioned and we had loads of ants, especially at night.
Towels and beds changed every 2-3 days. Hotel food was good and reasonably priced.
Reception staff very helpful and spoke good English. Kidzone Rep Magic Mark was brilliant and very enthusiastic.
Entertainer Naughty Nessie was fantastic with the kids and adults, an all rounder and the best thing at the Talayots.
