Very nice stay at this hotel! We had a small issue upon arrival as our sea view room wasn't available right away, but the reception team was super helpful and moved us the next day. The food was okay, but the pools are great (even if a few spots could be a bit cleaner). Overall, great value for money!
A very quiet location only the 3 Alua hotels , a minmart and one small supermarket.
Hotel runs a free shuttlebus to Punta Prima which is booked at reception.
The entertainment team were fabulous and the hotel does guided walks twice a week which I highly recommend . Pleunie , one of the entertainment team was an absolute star , always engaging with the guests and had great knowledge of the area.
Worth paying extra for the sea view , it is a full sea view not just a side one.
Cleaning wasnt up to standard as usual gor a 4 * hotel, sometimes floor not swept or shower cleaned . Insufficient towels left and cups not cleaned .
Always sunbeds available around the pool . Visited mid june
Just spent a very enjoyable week at this hotel. All staff very helpful. Restaurant excellent, good selection of food at each meal (we were all inclusive) Entertainment team were good fun, especially "Pleunie" the Dutch lady. Tom and Noah were good too. Bruno was a bit too serious. There were plenty of sports available, including archery, bowls and petanque.
We have had a fantastic stay at Alua Illa de Menorca, and we would especially like to thank Chef Nicholas for the exceptional care and attention he provided throughout our holiday.
As someone with coeliac disease, eating away from home can often be stressful, particularly at a buffet restaurant. From the very first meal, Nicholas went above and beyond to ensure everything was safe to eat. He carefully checked every food item, and if something didn't have a gluten-free symbol, he would personally take a photograph of the ingredients and show us so we could make an informed decision.
What really stood out was his consistency and genuine care. At every meal, Nicholas welcomed us warmly and made a point of checking whether we needed any assistance. His knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail gave us complete confidence and allowed us to relax and enjoy our holiday without worrying about food safety.
Nicholas is a tremendous asset to the hotel and deserves recognition for the outstanding service he provides. Thank you for helping make our stay so enjoyable and stress-free. We hope the hotel knows how lucky they are to have him and can't wait to see him again next year.
Well I've just got home after a week at this hotel and wow what can I say, I've never been to such a warm friendly hotel. The hotel is exceptionally clean everywhere, the rooms are spacious with great views of the sea and pool area, and the entertainment at night is good and varied. The pool is refreshing and the food is lovely and hot, especially the breakfast, and each evening there is different theme for dinner. The staff are so friendly and can't do enough for you especially the sous chef.
Location is quiet which suited me but short taxi or bus ride takes you into town.
The beach at Punta Prima is stunning and well worth a visit, only 8 mins by taxi.
I will be recommending this hotel to everyone and hope to return soon.
