“Great Holiday!!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

people found this review helpful

We have stayed at the Sol Milanos May 2011 and we had a fabulous holiday. The hotel was nearly empty as it was the beginning of the Summer season and we were lucky enough to have the hotel practically to ourselves. I am not sure what the fuss of other reviews is on here we found the hotel very nice, most of the staff friendly and helpful although the reception team let the hotel down a little as they were not friendly and often very short and sometimes rude. The restaurant was very good admittedly the food was often the same but there was a large selection and choice and good quality. The chefs and waiting staff were very friendly and took an interest in us as individuals, the only other aspect of the holiday at the Milanos we found a little "funny" was the entertainment...they rehearsed all day on the stage in the bar and still the results was shocking but still hilarious! All in all a fab holiday and looking forward to a second one this year!!

“A perfect quiet family holiday”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 December 2011
10
people found this review helpful

After reading some of the reviews on Trip Advisor, I was unsure what to expect at this hotel. However, a great holiday was had by all.

Check in was quick and easy and we were given a family room on the 4th floor overlooking the pool and beach - and what a view. It wasnt noisy after 11pm and a good night sleep was had every night, thanks to the air conditioning.

The room had a free fridge which we used every day to keep drinks cool.

We had no problem getting a sun lounger by the pool and we couldnt get our 6 year old out of the pool which was lovely.

We had booked half board and the choice of food in the restaurant was excellent, even for children. Lots of choice and freshly cooked each day.

The hotel is situated on the beach - a perfect location.

I would recommend this hotel for young families - there is not a lot going on in Son - Bou, it is a quiet resort which was exactly what we wanted. But if you are looking for lots of night life and entertainment, it may not be for you.

We took the local bus into Mahon - this is a lovely town to walk around and we went on a boat trip around the harbour. Lots of lovely shops to brouse around.

We will return to this hotel as it provides a lovely quiet relaxing family holiday.

Room Tip: Most rooms have a beach view

“An out of season gem”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 November 2011

people found this review helpful

We stayed in early May. The location is superb. The hotel was clean although the weather was great. Couples should avoid school holidays unless they love kids although I can well see the appeal for families in July and August. The food was really good with a a lot of varied choice which represented excellent value for money.

Room Tip: Ask for a sea view room near the front of the hotel

“Good overall hotel - rooms on the small side”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 November 2011
4
people found this review helpful

Overall this hotel is great - especially for famillies and you could not ask for a better location in Son Bou.
Food - Plenty of choice and always well cooked and hot. Resturant can seem a little over croweded at times due to the amount of kids/famillies
Pool area- once nice pool one bog standard.
Beach - gorgeous!!
Resort - for me a bit on the quiet side but enough to keep a family busy on a 7-10night holiday
Rooms - A tad on the small side especially the balconies.

“Lovely n quiet out of school hols”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 October 2011

We have a (nearly) 3 year old and this was our first venture abroad with her.

Choose Menorca as flight is only just over 2 hours and we'd heard it was a quiet island. Went 30/9 for one week.

Weather fab , hotel super clean & quiet - personally, we would not like to go in high season when both Milanos & Pinguinos are full (about 1500 people).

The staff were kind, courteous and friendly and made a real fuss of our little girl.

Pool freezing, but beach literally 30 seconds away- warm and clean.

Rooms are small, but adequate. Beds quite hard- but isn't a firm mattress supposed to be good for your back?

Buffett did get a bit boring, but there really was lots to choose from and several restaurants in resort.

Entertainment not too bad and even though kids club was not running (as it was so late in season) there was plenty of stuff for a 3 year old to do. Park, trampolines, sandcastles & swimming.

Nice quiet relaxing break.
