Location
When we arrived at the apartments the first impression was very good. The reception area was nice and the baby pool and kids playground was very welcoming for my children.
The apartment we stayed in was a bit on the small side for 4 of us, especially the living area and the balcony, although we were in an upper floor apartment and I know the ground floor terraces were much roomier. The apartments were cleaned every other day which was good although the maids didn't seem to like parting with much toilet roll !! The cooking facilities were clean but basic which was fine for us as we prefer to eat out anyway.
There are 4 pools in this complex and we used the one nearest our apartment which was in the X block. This was ideal for us as it had a deeper pool on the upper level and a shallower one for young children just down a few steps. The pool and the surrounding area was cleaned every morning. There was a small charge for sunbeds - about

We spent last week at the Talyot Apartments and a week we will remember for some time.
The apartments were on the small side but hey with weather in the 100's you dont spend long in them anyway. Thank goodness for the fans in the bedroom and lounge area! The kitchen area was extremely small and although had basic cooking utensils it was only the toaster and kettle that got used in ours!
We were in block x, not the best by any means,a little noisy from the road outside, the pool that services that section only had limited area around it for sunbathing so we used the one in the main area and whilst it had been partly re-furbished we understand that other apartments looked and felt a lot newer and brighter than ours.
If we went again we would definately request being in the main area, this is where the nicer apartments and gardens are.
We took our youngest, girl 15yrs, without her older brother and sister and we thought she would be bored. Couldnt be further from the truth. Although she was too old to take part in the childrens activities she certainly made full use of the adults entertainment. She made friends of the reps who being young and energetice themselves kept everyones spirits alive and full of anticipation of what was coming next!
Top scores for Liam (entertainment rep) he was a delight to be around. Polite yet full of energy and willing to be part of your holiday.
What more can we say, the pools were busy as you can imagine being school hols so the times when the kids were off doing 'club' activities was a welcome respite!
The charge made for the sun lounger is a little petty but you do get a drink from the snack bar.
Given all this would we go again? if we could guarantee Liam being there, yes!! without him, dont know, not all reps are the same are they.

The appartment was clean but we would recommend opting for a 2 bedroom appartment as it was just right for 4 and made all the difference plus ground floor(we stayed in p block) as it had a good size terrace and it was near the toddler pool which was still fun for my 2 and it had a fountain and the children loved spashing about in it. The kids clubs are brilliant.
All staff gave 100% and Liam and Emma were in a class of their own (looking forward to seeing Ryan and Liam on childrens Sat morning tv!!!)
Would recommend going on the "beach bonanza" trip as Son bou has a fabulous beach.

Thats the main complaints out of the way, so on to a few good points - the reps are excellent and the kids really enjoyed the clubs. The nearby supermarket was reasonably priced, although fresh bread is hard to come by.

Only complaint with accomodation was that the ground floor apartments had terraces that were not sectioned off,my young children could get to the pool and rest of resort if on the terrace.As a result we had to leave terrace door shut.
Apart from that,very nice.Noise from playground slighty OTT but that was due to the fact that we were right next to it!

I thought it was great hotel and good for children. We stayed in block h and we were right next to a childrens play area witch was good.
The pools were very big and there was one for children as well. I would defenitly stay at this hotel again it was great.

the reps luke and adam was excellent they really gave it 100% every time they went to do there job,i really enjoyed waterpolo which everyone joined in.
the hotel staff, raquel was a real helpfull girl will do everything to help you in anyway possible,then they was antonio the waiter fantastic man all the staff excellent i would recommend it to anyone to go there,i will certainly go back.
the rooms are spacious and well looked after bright and have all mod cons. the location of the complex was good, you got a supermarket on your doorstep with all your well known brands and fresh bread,there is a waterpark about 5mins walk to the right of the complex which is fantastic for all ages and very good prices and not a rip off once you are in there.
there are lots of resterants to try out all with in 1 mile stretch on both sides of the road. i will deffinatly be going again in september 2005 with my family again.

The complex is split into 3 sections, all with there own pools, although you can use any of them. There is a small charge for the sunbeds but if you had no change on you, the guy wasn't really bothered. We were in X block, which is at the back of the complex, and I think we got the best place to be. It was very quiet and you could get a sunbed no problem. The apartment was really nice (I have been in worse). The utensils, like pans, were brand new and there was even a hairdryer in the bathroom. We only asked for 1 cot but they gave us 2 which we thought was good. However, some of the apartments in the main block have been refurbished (they are really nice!!!) and they also have extras like microwaves and ovens.
The bedroom was very hot on a night time but you can hire fans really cheap. You can also hire buggys, highchairs and towels etc when your there.
Main moan was entertainment for children not in the 3-12 age range. There's nothing for the older ones, we assumed there would be things for our 13 yr old to join in but there wasn't. Lots of soft play areas and slides for the young ones and theres an area full of Little Tykes bikes/cars/houses.
Usual holiday entertainment in the bar area every night and the main strip in Cala Forcat has lots of restaraunts and bars.
Really enjoyed this holiday and would definitely go back
