Minura Sur Menorca & Waterpark

HOTEL was great, but any shops or anything is at least a 15 minute walk away but there is a free bus that goes to the beach and the restaurants and then there’s a bus to the market and shops that cost €1.60 each. The staff were really nice. We got a free room upgrade as well, lunch and dinner was included and then they did snacks between 11 and 1 and 3 and 5. Hotdogs,burgers, tosties, chips, ice lollies. They did different things for each dinner and lunch. they had fresh pizza fresh meat. made a carvery one of the days and every night at least two different Pallas. Everything was in good condition as well like nothing was broken. There wasn’t no cracks near the pool. Everything was good upkeep and There was staff constantly cleaning. Waterpark was literally across the road like I would say 15 feet away. At the waterpark, had massive waterslides, medium waterslides, small waterslides, a big pirate boat and two splash pads and you can get drinks for free at the waterpark. There was two shops at the resort that sold most things. but if you want anything medical even paracetamol you will have to go to where the market and shop are because you can only get it from a pharmacy, as well as fags/bacci and vapes. The pool was never really that busy either which is Good, kids club is from 10 till one and then 3 till 4:30, age 4-12,. have different stuff on every day and you can find out what they do, they do lots of activities for adults as well is all on boards in the reception. Towels are £10 deposit. It’s loud until about 11pm. Dinner starts at 7 mini disco starts at 8 and finishes about 9/9.30 then entertainment starts. entertainment is different every night there were singers, magicians, quizzes ect. There’s apar**ents or hotel rooms. Waterpark opens from 10 till six, included in price of the holiday. People are friendly English, German French and Spanish people. Five all inclusive cocktails and then one kid one.

Just back from a week staying at this hotel with the family. Pros Food - excellent, a good variety with salads, pizzas, fresh fish and meat. Fresh bread, lovely fresh fruit. Loved the breakfasts especially. Decent pastries and omelettes. Drinks were decent - San Miguel on tap, and nice spirits. The local pink gin was delicious. Coffees from the bar were lovely. Pool - always clean and no problem getting a lounger. If the main pool was busy you could go to the Waterpark. Staff - friendly and helpful. The cleaners kept the hotel and rooms spotless. Cons Location - very quiet with little to do in the immediate area. Great for peace and quiet but a little too quiet for us. The shuttle bus was handy for the times we used it to visit Punta Prima. We waited for an hour to get the land train to Binibeca but all trains were full so ended up getting a taxi. It was €8 each way so worked out cheaper than the land train. Entertainment - there was a sound limiter in place which meant the sound kept cutting out when people were singing. I’ve stayed at hotels with much better entertainment. But the team do make a huge effort to entertain guests during the day. My niece enjoyed the mini disco. Rooms - the bathrooms need a makeover. Very little storage and the showers in standard rooms are tiny. Some rooms don’t have balconies and despite paying for one we were assigned a room without a balcony. No compensation offered. Beds were comfy though and nice to have a fridge. Rooms could do with a bit of modernisation. Family stayed on a different floor to us and most nights they were kept awake by rowdy guests. Thankfully our floor was quiet. Odour - there was a bad smell in the ground floor of the hotel most of the week. This affected the reception and gym mainly. This was a relaxing week in the sun at a nice hotel. We were fairly happy considering the deal we got. I probably would look at a different area if returning to Menorca.

Lovely hotel with use of the water park across the road. Very quiet location but you can walk into Punta Prima which has a few restaurants and bars. There is a free bus to take you to the beach if you prefer not to walk. Lots of kids in the hotel, probably because of the water park. We had a suite which was very clean, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, lounge and kitchen area.

Where do i start- After paying a lot for the holiday my family were all looking forward to this trip that was partially ruined by persistent selfish smokers, smoking right next to babies and young children. The hotel manager was made aware of this but did very little about it. This was constant throughout the holiday, smoking around the pool, in the middle of crowds at evening entertainment, basically everywhere apart from the food hall. Another incident with couples not respecting the quiet times in the hotel and think it’s ok to carry on until well after 1:30am, again hotel staff hiding behind a desk. The cleaners were outstanding, the room was cleaned every day without fail. It’s a shame as the food was ok at times, sometimes under cooked which meant leaving food or finding an alternative. Plenty of activities to get involved in for kids and adults. The evening entertainment was as expected. The water park water was as salty as the sea, not sure why this was. There was an incident on our 6th day where a tile had snapped right next to the babies pool to which the animation team and lifeguard did nothing about, it’s seemed to me that there was only me around the pool thought this was dangerous with kids running about constantly and a 20 inch drop into the hole, it’s safe to say I used some common sense and covered the hole, it took 20 minutes for someone to come look at it. It’s safe to say at this point we had enough and was ready for home.

We spent a week here as a family of 4 at beginning of May. Lovely clean hotel with friendly staff. Check in was easy our room wasn’t ready so had lunch and then it was ready. We stayed in a 2 bedroom suite which was on 2 nd floor so had sea view. Plenty of room for clothes in wardrobe and drawers. Microwave, kettle and full sized fridge provided. Water park opposite was great lots of slides and sun beds. Water was cold but kids were ok wearing wetsuits and definitely needed water shoes as floor uneven. Entertainment in the evening started with a kids disco followed by a different act or quiz every night. There was singers, and magicians all of a high standard. Food was amazing considering the amount of people being served always hot and fresh, constantly bringing new food out. It was busy at times but never had to wait for a table and queues to get food were minimal. Wine, beer, juice, fizzy drinks all to help yourself to. Breakfast had cereals, pancakes, bacon, sausages, eggs, fresh fruit, cold meats, bread, pastries. Lunch and dinner was fresh salads, cold meats, different fish, paella, hot dogs, chips, pizza a wide choice and we had no problems finding something for everyone to eat. Location wise Punta Prima is a 20 min walk or free shuttle bus ride. On Sunday there was a market with about 12 stalls on which was nice to look round. There is also a kids play area just across from the beach which has a separate area for little ones. We had a great week and was the perfect place to stay for a first holiday abroad with children.

We have had an absolutely wonderful x2 weeks at this hotel! The animation team are the best team we have ever come across!! They really made our holiday with lots of fun and a brilliant kids club! The team always had a welcoming smile and our kids loved every minute they spent with them! So much so, that there were tears while saying goodbye! The animation team were so personal and addressed our entire group of x16 adults and kids by name everyday! Bar, reception and waiting staff also extremely friendly and helpful! Absolutely wonderful hotel and staff! Highly recommended!

Very friendly staff but not enough to serve at bars and the wait is crazy. Same in buffet can take up to 20 mins once in to even touch the food to put on your plate. On last day if you have an afternoon or evening flight they cut your all inclusive bands off after check out time. So you cannot get a drink unless you pay for it. They swap it to a meal only band.

The staff were incredibly helpful. The choice of food and quality was exceptional. This is a very well kept hotel. The location lacks many local facilities outside of the hotel and splash park. But a short bus ride takes you to the charming capital of this lovely island. We will return

The staff are lovely and very helpful in all areas of the hotel. The place is very clean and the room I stayed in was perfect for all our family. However the English channels didn't work and other guests said the same thing. The only reason I say this is because everything closes at 11pm in the hotel so they is nothing else to do. The restaurant had a good choice, however the food was very similar everyday and what should have been hot wasn't on several occasions. All drinks are served in plastic even if you are sitting on the terrace, however if you pay you got a glass. The kids club was perfect for us as gave us a few hours break, however the entertainment at night was more aimed at the Spanish residents. There was no real a**osphere around the pool or bar area ie background music shame really as a nice place to chill. They do offer a free bus service to the beach, again most is closed or closed down so very difficult to get anything unless you go to the nearest town which is about 30 minutes away. Overall was good for a family break but we personal wouldn't go back to this area
