Hotels Near KATAYAK | Excursions Catamarà, Caiac i Vela Menorca in Menorca

We felt very welcome in Rafael and Anna's castle. Room small but clean and had everything we needed. Only the shower cubicle was very cramped, but we just fit in it across. Fresh towels and room cleaning daily. Enjoyed Anna's cooking twice. Menu simple but tasteful

What a find! Expectations were high and the hotel and its marvellous team did not disappoint. Location (a ten minute taxi ride from the airport and only a few minutes walk to the harbour), its styling, its service with a smile (especially Bella's at breakfast), Luisa, Anna - everyone so happy to see you, making sure everything was ok. Room with sunbed terrace on the top floor so beautifully designed, our twin beds and bedding just divine, sumptuous pillows (a pillow menu!), air con silent and effective, L'Occitane toiletries, room cleaned with care every day. The most perfect of continental breakfasts; smoked salmon, avo, mushrooms, fresh fruit, croissants etc...perfectly ripe and freshly baked. No rickety table or sticky menu, here. Bean-to-cup coffee machine and assorted tea bags free all day, snacks too at lunchtime. Small garden and pool downstairs was a lovely alternative for reading, whilst cooling in the pool, or playing cards in the shade. Library/reading room with its quality books and art, providing a serene and relaxing venue to escape the sun at its hottest. My friend and i have travelled a lot and we notice everything! This hotel was just fantastic in every way - this is how it should be done. We will definitely be back.

Raining in Surrey for my birthday, couldn't have that! I booked a cheap Easy jet flight and booked Grupotel Mar de Menorca as it was near the airport (15 mins by cab). I didn't expect much given the cost for all inclusive but I was very pleasantly surprised. I arrived to a warm welcome and found my way to my spacious room. The buildings were all white with palm tree lined paths. The pool were surround by many sunbeds. Drinks and snacks served all day and breakfast, lunch and dinner downstairs with plenty of choice. Nearby a breathtaking cove for a swim in the sea. I wish i could have stayed longer!

We have just returned from two glorious weeks at this lovely hotel. We had a beautiful room overlooking the start of the estuary and the Isle de Rei. The morning sunrise was just fabulous! I had read before my visit that although the walk-in showers had been completed, the rooms themselves needed a refurbish. Well the bathroom is lovely. You have shampoo, bath wash and gorgeous body milk. Beautiful shower area. Such a delight! Yes, the rooms are looking well worn, but my only criticism would be lack of drawer space. If you are staying for two weeks it can be tricky to keep your clothes ‘tidy’ all piled up in the wardrobe. The hotel is blessed with the most wonderful happy staff! Thank you to all we met who enhanced our stay with their positive attitude. Special mention has to go though to Harold at the bar. A true professional! His cocktails never disappointed ! The food in the dining room was really good when we arrived. Lots of choice and of a very good quality. Towards the end of our stay, when numbers dwindled, there was still a great display of Menorcan foods, meats and cheeses. The soup was divine, and the different breads just lovely. Salads were plentiful and varied, and the puddings were scrumptious! There was still always something tasty and different to choose every evening. The chefs were continually checking the food and replacing it when necessary. Cleo and Alexander were great hosts. There was low key entertainment twice a week. Good singers, and we particularly loved the jazz trio on the last evening. They put their own take on many popular songs and did it very well. Es Castell is full of history, and we enjoyed visiting Mahon. You can either walk for about 15 to 20 mins, or catch a bus into the station. From here you can use the buses to visit other places very easily. Or walk down into the town and take in all the sights! There is a fish market and attached to it an area which does tapas and all different kinds fishy snacks. On our last Saturday there was music and it made for a lovely atmosphere. Would we return to the Agamemon? Certainly we will! The views are a delight, always something different going on.

A little gem of a hotel. Perfect location for the marina and beach. Although we didn’t have a sea view the room was still clean, spacious, comfy beds (maybe not the pullout but much better than in some family rooms we have visited recently). Breakfast was plentiful and evening meals were fine, not lots of choice but enough and is replenished regularly - first all inclusive I have been to and didn’t find anything undercooked so care seems to be taken. In other reviews people have commented on flies on the food. Yes it is a little gross but not really sure what the hotel can do, they have lots of fly lights and fans around to kill them but they are relentless. Sitting outside to eat helps but they are very irritating. Sunbeds were not tricky to get, after breakfast there were plenty to choose from. Lovely pool, very clean and inviting and never too busy. Drinks are priced reasonably - it would be nice if water was supplied with evening meals, as it is at breakfast or even if you are allowed to bring your own water into the restaurant would be good. All staff are very hardworking, constantly cleaning and renovating around the grounds, always happy to help. Supermarket over the road brilliant for stocking up on food for the fridge, all apartments have full cooking facilities - we didn’t use but could see some families cooking in the evenings. Without doubt we will return - it’s the best round hotel we have stayed in for a long time, try and book sea view if you can afford. We only booked 2 days before we flew so rooms were limited but the view must be wonderful!

Overall, a good value place to stay. As other reviews have said, the decor is a little dated, but perfectly acceptable, and the apartment was as clean as one would hope. End of June was unexpectedly quiet, but in a good way. Bus to Mahon runs hourly from the bottom of the road (5 mins walk) and is Euro 1.80 each way. Plenty of space to park if you hire a car. Some great restaurants in the town (recommend Casa Fermin) and a great beach. Only minor issue was the air-con wasn't great, but hey ... it's 32 degrees in June in the Med ... so we knew what to expect. Breeze through the apartment cooled it in the day, just a bit warm overnight. Would definitely go back.
