“Good hotel but needs work”

We stayed for two nights and absolutely loved the view from our room (number 11). It directly faced the ocean and Binibeca village, making it one of the best spots on the row. The bed was very comfortable with good-quality linen, and we also liked having a sofa area to relax in. Having a small kitchen was another bonus, as it allowed us to prepare our own snacks and enjoy them on the terrace. However, I found it disappointing that no sponge, washing-up liquid, or even a tea towel was provided. At £140 per night, and especially for such a short stay, it seems unreasonable to expect guests to purchase these basic essentials. The room was cleaned on our second day, but the dirty plates were left in the sink, so we ended up washing them with hand soap! The room itself looked lovely at first glance, but on closer inspection there were noticeable marks on the walls, filled holes, and mould around both the shower tray and shower head. At this price point, I don’t think that’s acceptable. The common areas outside the room were also in poor condition. The wooden walkway that ran all the way across the front of the hotel from one end to the other was loose and broken in parts, lifting up as you walked on it. The handrail on the steep steps nearby was also loose, which felt unsafe. The wooden decking around the pool above our room was lifting too, creating a clear trip hazard. These issues really need urgent attention as someone could get badly injured. Breakfast was fine, with a nice selection of Spanish meats that we enjoyed, but there were a lot of flies landing on the food. The hotel could definitely do more to manage this. We didn’t use the bar or restaurant, so I can’t comment on those. This is a beautiful property in a unique and stunning location, but it requires significant maintenance and attention to detail to live up to its potential.

Lovely hotel. The breakfast was wonderful and the restaurant staff. The cleaning ladies were wonderful and the Receptionists were excellent. Really helpful. Nice grounds and in a good position for walking around the village. The Junior suite we had was very large with a large terrace. The weather was so hot, but always a bit of shade on the terrace. The downside was the toilet and shower leaked, so always a puddle of water, bathroom needs a good grouting and plaster in bedroom was peeling off, although that wall was under ground behind it and is difficult to control. A really nice place to go to, have breakfast and enjoy the location. Need a car to see island, public bus 10 mins walk away to Mahon.

Positives: Reception staff are welcoming, friendly, and helpful. Pool areas are very clean, peaceful, and a great area to relax and soak up amazing views across the bay and binibeca vell with its whitewashed houses. Negatives: Although the breakfast area had good choices of hot and cold foods, pastries and fruits, this was severely ruined by the amount of flies on many parts of the food on display. It put us off being able to choose and enjoy food that we have paid for. I am not talking about 1 or 2 flies here, but dozens crawling about on all the pastries, yoghurt, fruit, bread. There is a simple solution in covering the food up in a manner that is easily accessed by the customer but prevents contamination by unwanted flies. Easy! Room: We were disappointed with the room we were allocated. Im no snob believe me! I can cope with the odd issue, but this room took this to another level. Damp ceiling, dirty lamps, mould in shower, door to bathroom in poor condition, bedside lamps dirty, and one was split. Overall, the room for the amount we paid was very poor value. I have attached photos of the areas described here. Based on our experience, we would not return back to this hotel but definitely will return back to Binibeca vell as it was amazing.

Third time we've been to this hotel first time amazing.. Second time was good but the room view was a brick wall..This time we opted for a junior suite Well it was large enough with a terrace surrounded by a brick 🧱 and the main road..what a view Not..When the light is on in the bathroom you feel spied on as there are no screens just a token of obscure frosted glass... The patio area needed a good clean and the furniture requires upgrading. The bed was amazingly big and comfy..No kettle or pan to boil any water.. Breakfast was great although the flies were very annoying...Some staff the meet and greet bloke for breakfast and a couple of waiters and waitresses both and breakfast and the pool bar..The others were rude ignorant even though we tried to communicate with our little Spanish..The walkways around the hotel are slippy, wobbly uneven with faltering hand rails..For the price it needs a total upgrade, Smiling and more attentive staff..Will probably be choosing another hotel when we go to see family living in menorca next year..
