Mestral and Llebeig Apartments

What more could you ask for!! We went self catering for 1 week in a 3 bedroom apartment in the mestral side. We found wonderful people and very well behaved kind children for our kids to play with, we were treated to excellent clean facilities and an amazing splash park for the kids. The staff were amazing, spoke enough English and were very accommodating, we never had anything but smiles and friendly waves from the staff, they were great!! Drinks were of a good quality as well as the ice creams nothing was too expensive really. Surrounding restaurants were very nice, C’an Berto is very very nice and Es Pins was beautiful. The TUI reps were excellent!! Harrison helped us out a lot and gave very very good advice about the island, plus he was great to chat to. The entertainment staff (Patricia especially) were second to none, they really made our kids time there special!! I honestly would have no hesitation in going back and in fact we are looking at booking next year!! You will not be disappointed if you go! One piece of advice, invest in insect repellent, there are a lot of flies etc, but that’s not because it’s dirty, there are flies everywhere in menorca!!

Never been to Menorca, booked these apartments the week before as wanted a last minute break so we had absolutely no idea what we were coming to. We opted for self catering as we like eating out at different places though you can upgrade once you arrive. Check in was smooth, passports taken from you until you pay the tourist tax (came to 44€ for 2 of us). Given loads of information about the hotel, resort etc. We were in the Llebeig side which is the quieter side, upgraded to a 2 bed apartment which was huge, 2 bathrooms, aircon, fully fitted kitchen, massive balcony. Couldn’t fault it whatsoever. Staff were very friendly, beds got changed once in a week which was fine for us, towels a couple of times. The area itself is very quiet which is what we wanted, plenty to do for families...would 100% come back here, it’s a beautiful island.

My 2 kids and I are currently here, at Mestral and Llebeig. It is nice here, I’ll give it that. We came on self catering originally, but upgraded to all inclusive for 6 days on arrival. I’m a single parent, so on a very tight budget. I was told prior coming over, all inclusive upgrade was €35 per adult and first child free, second child half price. I expected to pay €315. But my older child was charged as an adult and I had to pay for my younger one, but it stated first child free, so I should have been charged €420. However that wasn’t the case when got here. I was charged for 2 adults and 1 child, so it wiped out 95% of my money. I believed the all inclusive would end on the evening of my 6th day. It hasn’t. It has ended today at lunch time, that’s 5 and a half days and not the full 6 I paid for! So from now until tomorrow my kids and I won’t get to eat until we get back to England tomorrow afternoon. We will have to go without food and fluids (I have one bottle of water for us, which won’t last until we leave tomorrow morning) and I have barely enough money left to get us by at the airport tomorrow morning, approximately €17. This was not explained when I upgraded that all inclusive would expire at lunch time, so I expected it to end tonite, as that’s what I paid for. So if you do come here on self catering then decide to upgrade, be warned, your all inclusive expires before the end of your time paid for. However saying that, the highlight was rufi at pool bar was lovely and my kids and I have spent our nites hanging out there, for his lovely hospitality and company. If I were to come here again, I would book thru my travel agent all inclusive instead of waiting until arriving here to be what feels like overcharged and not getting the full all inclusive I paid for. Now I am tryna find someone back home to transfer me some money so my kids can eat tonite, especially my youngest who is a picky eater at the best of times. I don’t usually leave poor reviews, but this time I felt no choice but to unfortunately. Had it not been for this, I would have given a better review.
