SOL Falcó Menorca

“Difficult to rate this hotel. There's some great qualities about it. The staff are polite and friendly, but Ive come away feeling a little unwhelmed considering it's a 4* hotel. Our room was small, one double and a fold out. Space to hang things and shelves. One small table indoors. One chair. Table on the balcony and 2 chairs. If you want a kettle it's 3 euro a day to rent. Little fridge in there so you can go get bits and pieces from the many local markets. The balcony has a little fold out airer for drying clothes on, couldn't help but think it would have been better being mounted to the other side of the balcony as we faced east and the airer was mounted on the south side of the balcony meaning nothing was in the sun after 11ish. So we resorted back to the classic hanging stuff over the balcony to dry. AC in the room was good and kept the room lovely and cool. You can hear other rooms quite easily and it was difficult to get a good sleep. The floors in the room were quite dirty when we arrived. Like having to brush your feet off before getting in bed dirty. Showers in the room very good. Again though thers no secondary lock/ chain/ latch on the door or for the balcony so if you've got kids that enjoy being escape artists, you're probably not going to get a good night's sleep. I think my biggest disappointment and something to make other family travellers aware of is the main pools with the slides. The splash zone is great for toddlers, it's around a foot deep at it's furthest point but the slides exit to the bigger pool which is 1.9m deep so if you're like my travelling with a young child who is learning to swim but still relies on armbands/ floaties it's not ideal as you can't stand in the pool and wait for them to come down. I think the depth needs to be reduced to 1.2m or 1.5m to make that process easier and safer for parent's and children. Food was generally good however on our last night it was pretty much fish or pork options which is fine for us but I couldnt help but think people with dietary restrictions for religious reasons would have been left with a few vegetables if they weren't keen on fish either. Again a layout change would be better with all your proteins first where you grab your plates then onto sides it's current layout is some proteins some carbs at the beginning but the main meats in the middle of the serving area. So you end up wandering down first to see what's on offer before getting your food so when you do have a full plate you are dodging a lot of people going back to your table. We went the week before half term in the UK and bar access was easy. But more staff are required at the bar during half term times as the queues get quite long, queuing round the corner, it was quicker for me to walk to the supermarket get bottled drinks and snacks than wait to be served at the hotel. You're very close to the beach and it's only around 8 euro for a taxi to the marina.”

“Hôtel qui pourrait être très bien s'il y avait suffisamment de transats au bord des piscines Impossible de trouver une place sur la semaine donc a quoi sert de prendre un hôtel avec piscine Quand on fait part de ce problème on nous répond on ne peut rien faire...pourtant il suffirait juste de rajouter des transats car il y a de la place au bord de certaines piscines pour en mettre Sans parler de ceux qui laissent leurs serviettes a 6 h du matin voir même le soir pour le matin C’est bien dommage et pour ceci je ne le conseillerai pas (Translated by Google) This hotel could be great if there were enough sun loungers by the pools. It was impossible to find a spot during the week, so what's the point of staying in a hotel with a pool? When we mentioned this problem, they told us there was nothing they could do... yet all it would take is adding more sun loungers, as there's plenty of space by some of the pools. Not to mention the people who leave their towels at 6 a.m., or even in the evening for the next morning. It's a real shame, and for this reason, I wouldn't recommend it.”
