This is definitely the only one with a life guard. The pool is super and the staff are very friendly and polite. The only problem was it is on all different levels so there are steps everywhere (no good for disabled my aunt has arthritis and she found the steps a big hindrance)
It is a shame this hotel is in the sticks it would be my ideal hotel where I would go back year after year if it was on the outskirts of a good town where you could walk to have a look around the shops.
We also found this hotel catered more for Germans and there was plenty of them but if you don

The food excellent and if anything we felt spoilt for choice.
The staff friendly esp the entertainment team Nasser etc, Very surprised by other comments about catering for Germans, we found that the hotel was a mixture of Brits Italians, Spanish and Germans, although on the second week of our stay we knew it was school summer holiday time back home because of a few loud Brits arriving, and I can honestly say they bought the resort down a bit. So I recommend taking the kids but book out of school holidays for a really enjoyable holiday.
The island itself is well worth seeing and don't be worried about hiring a car the driving is not as difficult as you would think and virtually impossible to get lost.
We will definitely be looking at returning to the Mar de Menorca because we all had such a fantastic time.

The hotel was absolutely fantastic. Very well laid out and extememly clean. Now onto the food...what choice there was and it may have looked a little 'different' at times but tasted great! You do not go away to eat British food.
The staff were fantastic. They all spoke many, many languages and from the onset with the recepyion staff to the bar staff, to the waiters( who are very effecient at taking away dirty plates!!) onto the maids and Gemma who ran the mini club! Fantastic! Last but not by any means least were the 4 staff who worked the hardest and always with a smile for all were the Entertainment staff. Nasser, Klaas, Greet and Christina....Wow what can I say? They were the icing on the cake for us. These four not only speak many languages fluently but include everyone from youngsters to the grandparents.
We were gutted to leave what was our best holiday ever and will certainly be returning next year if not later on this year. 100% fantastic.

We read several dismal reports about this place , but honestly it was all very good.
The room with one bedroom and single beds (there -in), was very clean . The seperate bathroom was also well appointed ( why the bidet was removed - i do not know? ) nice hot water and plenty of pressure. The sofa beds were excellent for the children ( 10 and 12 yrs ). Towels replaced every 2 days. Safe Available at extra cost.
The pool was very large and especially clean , very popular , but sunbeds still usually avialable.
The grounds were kept nicely too.
The bar was excellent . 1 euro for the plastic glass- good enough for a nice cold 'san miguel' beer !
The main resturant was very busy at certain times. They really need better toast making machines at breakfast - you need to queue up and then wait 5 mins whilst the low powered thing slowly browns the bread !
Other food was plentiful, a little boring as many items regularily appeared each serving ! Not really complaining as you would not expect it to be like 'at home' !
Our arrival was at tea time ,and we managed to get the evening meal . We stayed 7 nights , but had to 'book out' and vacate room at midday on the last day - We were not allowed to have a 'free' meal in the restaraunt prior to our departure , we found this a liitle odd. They insisted our wristbands (indicating 'free' meals and drinks ) were removed at the midday departure !
Overall the holiday was excellent . Use of a hire car is recommended, so you can see more of this beautiful island. Yes we would love to go back there again.

Food was fantastic with wide range for everyone.
Rooms cleaned every other day.
Entertainment team brilliant loads of time for the whole family not just the kids.
Lovely bars and restaurants outside of complex.
Would recommend this holiday to anyone.

Without a doubt this is the perfect holiday for families and we can only speak the highest praise of the hotel and the staff.
This is from my children age 9 and 11 - the staff are the greatest the pool is fab, the food is fab we love to go back every year and that will not change.
We love the Mar de Menorca and all who work there.Can't wait to return next year, and the year after and the year after that. In fact would not go anywhere else.

This hotel was beautiful. We stayed in a one bedroom apartment - it was very clean and quite spacious, it had all the utilities you would expect to find and if you wanted to you could hire kettles etc. My only problem was no air conditioning but you could hire fans from the reception.
The pool was massive - enough room for everyone and it never felt cramped. It was very clean and I suppose because of the time of year there were plently of sun beds around. The staff did contribute to this by removing the towels.
The dining room was clean and staff were always changing table cloths and cleaning but it did get very busy in the restaurant. The food was catered for the Germans but there was Spanish food as well and minimal English food but after all, I wasn't on holiday in England so I found it quite nice for a change. There was a good selection and it was always hot.
The hotel is very secluded but it was in a lovely location and the little cove 5 minutes down the road was beautiful. There were trips available which we took advantage of and had a wonderful time as well as the daily buses to other beaches. There was also a daily bus to the capital but it got rather full so we had a taxi but it was worth visiting.
The staff were very friendly and helpful especially the reception staff. They did everything they could to make sure we enjoyed our honeymoon. Thank you.
There was entertainment every night exept Sunday. It was very basic but we enjoyed it (probably something to do with the free drinks!) We enjoyed the shows and even the bingo.
I would return to this hotel but either when we have kids or with other couples, it was nice for a honeymoon as I don't like flying and it was just what we were looking for, but we wouldn't go as a couple again as it was too quite for our usual holiday likes.

This was by no means a quiet holiday. The hotel was very clean. The pool lovely.
There was a few things that we did not like. It was very isolated. Nothing around it. No village etc. There was a bus every day to take you to a different beach every day, that's if you could get on it.
The hotel staff were very nice and friendly. The food catered for Germans. The entertainment catered for Germans. Just about everything catered for Germans. We felt particularly sorry for the English children who went up onto the stage only to sing songs, yes, you guessed it, in German?
The glasses were plastic and you had to pay a deposit of
