Jardín de Menorca Aparthotel has 3 outdoor swimming pools. It offers a free shuttle bus to Son Bou Beach, the longest beach in Menorca. This aparthotel has sun terrace and gardens.
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.
Host was in contact with us frequently on the day of arrival so it was easy to arrange a time to collect the keys. Nice and private location with lovely sea views. Lots of local shops and restaurants within walking distance. The pool is a good size but quite deep if you have small children. Plenty of sun loungers for a larger family. Handy washing machine and drying area off the kitchen for all your towels. A week wasn't long enough as I wish I could have stayed longer. The sunset beach walks were amazing.
The location is fabulous in the countryside with wonderful trails to walk but you are still only a short drive from the beach and nearby towns. The quality of the accommodation is excellent and so is the housekeeping. German and Cristina are wonderful hosts and the chef creates unusual and imaginative dishes; we wish we had eaten here more! We have been visiting Menorca since the 80’s and this is probably the best accommodation we have ever stayed in.
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.
Gorgeous villa in the Menorcan countryside in Son Bou!
The villa had everything you could need, including a beautiful clean pool! We were a group of 12 and we never felt like we didn't have enough space.
Pere was great to deal with - friendly and very accommodating!! Nowhere was to far to travel to from the villa, we really can't complain. We will be back for sure!!
Lovely, well equipped apartment & clean. Everything about it was just right. Stunning views. Would definitely go back or to another of Menorca Vacation properties. The staff were very welcoming & helpful, even loaned us a brolly for the beach on the 1st day. Welcome pack in the apartment which on other holidays had to be requested & paid for, so a nice surprise.
The location is great, up on the hill in Son Bou with a wonderful view over the dunes to the sea.
The property was neat and tidy, plenty of space, the balcony offers sun, shade and views over the garden and down to the sea.
The pool was private and perfect for a refreshing swim - might be a bit small if there were 6 of you in it.
The pool area is amazing! There's lots of space and the pool is huge. Also the pool bar is nice with reasonable prices. The breakfast is very good. There's a wide variety to choose from. We ate one dinner at the hotel (Menorcan themed) which was really good as well. There was delicious seafood, a grill station and a pasta chef.
Son bou is a wonderful place. The beach is fantastic, the weather is reliable and we didn't have a single mosquito. The apartment is adequate for a family of 4, but not luxurious. The complex is nice and quite and safe. We slept well and had all that we needed. The bar is pleasant. Shops are handy.
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 view and all the facilities. It has full equipment. The beach is walking distance BUT if you don’t have good condition you need a car or a taxi to get to the apartment. We had a great time, definitely a great location to stay
Breakfast was fantastic. It is made as buffet.
Pool is very nice, big and not a lot of people.
Staff is very friendly and helpful with everything.
Location is on the hill, so I recommend to rent a car for better transfer.
We liked pretty much everything, especially the pool and the staff at the little bar/restaurant by the pool. Although the service can be slow, the food is amazing and easily rivals any other restaurant in Son Bou.
Son Bou is quite in the middle of the island, so is same distance to Ciutadella or Mahon. The apartment was very close to the beach. The pool was a little far from my apartment so I didnt try it.
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.
The villa was beautiful. It was easy walking distance to all amenities. It was private and had everything you could possibly need on holiday. It was also very clean.
