This is my second review. We reported a boiler or hot water tank problem at 1.30 am. It woke us and the noise and overheating plug worried us.
In the morning we had to insist to be offered another apartment by central reservations. I asked whether they had had similar problems previously. I was told not. I have just seen six other guests had reported "boiler" problems by searching the reviews. I wonder what I might find by searching "tank". Then one could try translations into various languages.
I do not appreciate being lied to!

Son bou is a fantastic place to stay.
Son bou is a fantastic place to stay. It has something for everyone. There is good restaurants of various food choices. The beach is easy to get to and it’s beautiful. We love the Kitcat Bar as they have entertainment a few evenings a week. They do a Quiz and in high season karaoke. All sports are played on the various TVs. It’s run by a wonderful friendly family and they make you feel very welcome. The food and drink is excellent too.

Food selection both for breakfast and dinner were great!
Food selection both for breakfast and dinner were great!
Hotel has a minibus that takes guests to the beach every half an hour (with a break during the lunch). This is great as the hotel is up the hill, the walk is not too long but can be challenging for some people.
Nearby beach is long and sandy, with options to rent umbrellas and sunbeds. It can be busy at times. Waves are often high, so swimming can be challenging.
There are a couple of restaurants near the beach, with reasonably priced decent food, in case you wish to dine out, but the hotel restaurant is much better.
There is a bus stop near the beach where you can get the bus to go to towns across the island, some direct and some with change. Buses don't go often, and there are very few of them on Sundays, so plan things ahead if you wish to venture out.
Daily boat trips on the island are often sold out, as there are only a couple of options available on the entire island, so it is recommended to book trips before arriving on the island, as the prices are fixed.
Renting a car can also be challenging, and it is recommended to check options in advance.

The beach was very long and it was easy to find space away from other people if you wanted to. It was end of season though so probably very packed in peak season. We didn’t like the restaurants in the town - we tried three different ones during our stay and the food was decidedly average and overpriced.
It’s unlikely that we would return to Son Bou apart from going to the beach possibly.

Son Bou is a beautiful area with a great beach.
Son Bou is a beautiful area with a great beach. It’s a very clean area and has beautiful weather, even at the start of October we had clear blue skies and 26°c, perfect for sunbathing and swimming in the pool. I recommend staying in Valentin hotel.

A lovely village with beautiful views, a few supermarkets...
A lovely village with beautiful views, a few supermarkets and the odd 'club' but nothing too hectic. Some nice restaurants catering mainly to families. Gorgeous beach and lots of hiking available. Beautiful marshland protected from over-development.
It felt relaxed and friendly.
We used the bakery every day and ate at Allesandros which was excellent.
Thr Villa was beautiful, very spacious, clean and had good amenities. Pool was clean, outside area was clean too. The place was also given a mid week clean which was great. Had enough crockery and pots and pans for a self catering holiday. We were also left a welcome pack with tea coffee, wine bottle and breakfast items. That was very thoughtful. Communication before arrival was very efficient and informative. Highly recommend.
Amazing private pool and sea view from the balcony upstairs. The central location of Son Bou is perfect to visit the island. The beach in Son Bou is really long and beautiful (but the access from the Villa is 1.5 km walk).
The check-in/check-out was easy, the key was in the box near to the door. For the check-out the agency let us stay 1 hour more which was perfect for our baby to finish his morning nap.
very clean property, functional kitchen (no oven though, apart from microwave). Cleaning staff went out of their way to try and visit the room for cleaning at the times when we were either at the beach or when our child was not sleeping (we usually have long naps in the middle of the day). Pool is amazing and had plenty of room even though multiple families were there with their kids at the same time.
The location is brilliant, walking distance from the beach (although a little bit up the hill but still easy to walk).
The private swimming pool. It's on the small side but otherwise lovely.
The privacy - despite being amongst many other similar villas the setup is such that there is a lot of privacy.
The views over the sea from the terrace.
Location close to Son Bou beach. There is a shuttle service but never used, having a car.
Good breakfast, a wide choice of sweet and salt, with some food freshly prepared (smoothies, pancakes, etc).
Good cleanliness inside and outside. Good pool bar and cocktails.
Nice pool, but never used, given the beauty of Menorca's beaches.
The location is perfect, Son Bou beach is a 5 min. walk from the apartment. Great communication with the office, Cristina was very helpful in all our questions. The appartment met all our needs. Kitchen utensils were clean and sufficient for 4 adults. Our visit was at the end of October, so the area was very quiet.
Nice location with great view on Son Bou beach. The apartaments are well equipped and have everything you need. The beach is about 15 minutes walk, and about 200m there is a supermarket and a very good bakery. Son Bou is very touristic but it is ideal for families or as base for touring the island.
This place is amazing. The grounds are beautiful. Amazing views. The breakfast is fantastic. The rooms attractive, comfortable and clean. Such great amenities. The owners are so kind and friendly. The dinner is hands down the best I had in Menorca. I can't recommend this place enough. Stay here!
Great place. Son Bou and the apartment are super cute. Great balcony. Pool was nice. Rooms were very clean (super important for us). We were working from there and in this case I recommend to bring your own Internet. I would definitely go back!
The staff at check-in was very friendly and helpful. It was a good start to our holiday. The house was big enough for the 4 of us for the 10 days and very comfortable.
