Talayot

Stayed here the last week of August, upon arrival room was very battered cupboards hanging off the hinges, wires hanging out of wall lights, broken smoke alarm on the floor, patio doors and windows did not lock properly. I did not feel safe. I asked for the room to be changed but was told it was not possible, spoke to the rep the following day he also said it was not possible but did ask for photos of problems with the room which some of the concerns were addressed and rectified but not all. There is a theft problem, people were having items taken from the room terrace. I did mention this to reception staff but no comment was made but they didn't seem surprised like they know this is happening. Access can be gained to the complex by anyone no carded entry, I know it's Menorca and everything is a bit dated, but some kind of security is needed. The pool area is very slippery I nearly went over a few times even with flip flops on, sun bed situation was bad not enough beds and you are all on top of each other most of the loungers touching so no personal space at all, this didn't effect us as we were in the pool with very young children not sunbathing, but clearly not enough space. Although the hotel does have 2 other pools one was very small though. Kids enjoyed the splash park. I often saw people putting their towels out at 11pm at night to reserve sun loungers even though sign says they will be removed if towels are on beds before 9am, I never saw anyone enforce this 🤣 again didn't effect us but would probably effect other's. The complex is very noisy even at midnight people are running round screaming and shouting. It depends what you are used to but this is not what we like on our family holidays. The spa was very nice hired out for an hour whilst there was a storm. Hotel is in a good location and is close to the old town only a few minutes on the bus which stops outside the hotel. There are quite a few restaurants a short walk down the road, something to suit all budgets. On site supermarket was well stock and we managed to get everything we needed. Everything at the hotel is an paid extra even the safe so be prepared to pay. I would not stay here again it was very overpriced and badly maintained. I would not recommend to stay here if u have standards, unless you wanted to just use it as a base to explore and it was going at rock.bottom price. TUI must agree things are not right here since they have issued me compensation!

We booked a 'cheap and cheerful' one week stay at Talayot Appartments. We were very pleasantly surprised as we had read some negative reviews. The appartment was clean and contained everything we needed. Towels were changed every other day. We were in T block and had a beautiful view of one of the many pools at the resort. The pool area was cleaned daily and the surrounding gardens were well kept. We were self-catering and the large, well stocked supermarket across the road had everything we needed. The holiday was very good value for money and I would struggle to find anything negative to say about it. Would definitely stay here again.

gteat place to stay everything on-site great for family’s with young kids. If you’re a couple maybe September will be better kids gone back to school , we were here from end of August to 8th of September and lot more couples arriving, if you have walking disability remember it’s avoid 20 minutes into the main eating and drinking places. All in all very good place.

Exceptional; totally exceeded expectations. Seemed to be the only reasonably priced holiday for a family of 6 so felt nervous it wasn't going to be great... But it was! 7 brilliant pools offering different things. SUPER child friendly. (We have 4+2yo). Lots of different play areas, go karts, kids club, tennis courts, entertainment. The staff are so lovely. Restaurant on site was brilliant but also PLENTY of decent restaurants within a 10 minute walk. Close to a very safe beach (cala en blanes) - shallow, still, warm, small. Fantastic supermarket literally over the road. Accomodation was lovely - not luxury, but perfect for what we needed and spacious. The site is SO clean! Pools are cleaned and tested every day, our apartment was cleaned regularly and always maintenance team visible, working hard, pruning gardens etc. honestly, nothing bad to say about it - we had an amazing time!

Transfer from the airport took around 50 minutes, and check-in was a breeze — we were in our room by 12:00, which was a great start. Initially, we were placed in M block, but as the balcony was right next to the entertainment area, we requested a quieter room. The staff were very accommodating and moved us to T block, which was perfect — peaceful and relaxing. The rooms are a little dated, as you’d expect from a 2-star, but very clean and comfortable. Our air conditioning didn’t work, but the hotel provided a temporary unit. Unfortunately, it was too noisy to run at night, and although fans were offered, they never arrived. Still, we appreciated the effort. The T block pool area was lovely and calm, a nice contrast to the busier main pool. The snack bar served burgers, hot dogs and more — good for a quick bite, though we preferred having lunch on our balcony and exploring the many local restaurants in the evenings. The surrounding resort area of Los Delfines felt a little tired, with some closed buildings, but there were still plenty of restaurants to choose from. Throughout the hotel, everything was spotless, and the kids’ club staff were always visible and friendly. Evening entertainment was a hit with our children — the circus and magician acts were their favourites, and the “Pete Bridge” dance became the highlight of their day. Overall, this is a clean, welcoming hotel with great family-friendly touches. A few small improvements would make it even better, but we had a wonderful stay and would happily return.

As a family we love this place, we come in 2024 as well and this year was even better. The staff at this place are incredible and work their socks off from morning till night, always happy to help. The food, the kids loved the food here and so did we although we did eat out at restaurants a lot, we had most dinners here and there was NOTHING at all wrong with the food. The local restaurants are incredible L,Ancora, Yucca, Es Replec, Rosario are all worth a visit. The location of this place is PERFECT, situated close to all the restaurants and water park, 10-15 minute walk to cala blanes beach, 10 minutes to cala brut (where you can jump off platforms into the sea) and a short walk to other local beaches, they are only small but stunning. You NEED to visit the sunset bar (just past Yucca) for the sunset of course and some lovely drinks, they also serve food as does Coral, Sunsets are STUNNING!. This place is PERFECT for families and it's a little gem, rooms cleaned, new towels etc etc, pools were cleaned EVERYDAY. Again, we LOVE this place and I'm sure we'll be back again soon.
