Sol Milanos Pinguinos

I have just spent a week in this hotel. It’s a huge hotel, but as we were there at the beginning of October it was very quiet, although there were several large groups there, the hotel is so spacious that it never seemed busy. The restaurant got markedly busier at the weekend, but the staff were extremely helpful at arranging tables together for our group of 10! The hotel was spotlessly clean, and although the rooms weren’t perhaps in the best position, most of us were on the first floor with no view which is apparently where all the single rooms are, they were adequate. The showers could do with updating, but apart from that for the price we paid and the amount of time you spend in them, they were fine. Having read previous reviews about the food I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the buffets at both breakfast and dinner. There was a huge choice and freshly cooked meat and fish were served every evening. The only comment would be on the quality of the orange juice which certainly wasn’t fresh juice, but this is a minor complaint. The rest of the food was excellent. The hotel has a lovely position with 3 swimming pools, lots of sun loungers and easy access to the sea and a lovely beach with beach bars from which we watched the sunsets over a cocktail! I would happily return to this hotel at this time of year.

I love menorca and son bou has the most fantastic beach. The milanos pinguinos is a really nice hotel, the rooms are comfortable and clean, the food is good and the staff are friendly and welcoming. This is my third visit to this hotel and it won't be my last.

I am currently here now on a weeks holiday with my partner and our young son. The room is very clean and the views are spectacular! The beach is literally a stone's throw away. It's clean and tidy and the water is clear. The food is average, it gets very repetitive and most days is only luke warm. A children's menu isn't available and children's cutlery isn't. There is currently no snack bar open or onsite supermarket as advertised on the TUI booking website. Most days we have to eat out at lunch because of this which is a let down. The pool area is lovely but the water is extremely cold. There are plenty of loungers and umbrellas and it's not to crowdy. The on site park facilities are great but a definitely on the older side and could do with a revamp. The bar area is nice but expensive. It's not the best for young children as it serves no cordial like orange/blackcurrant juice. The children only have options of pure juice and it set little one's stomach off. The children's mini disco didn't start until gone 9pm which is just ridiculously late with young children. The nights we did attend the songs and dances were performed on the stage with the children. Again with a 2yr old this wasn't practical as the stage was a sheer 1ft drop off either side onto hard, concrete tiles. It took 3 adults to man the stage at either side to avoid my little one running straight off the edge! It would of been better for it to have been done on the floor allowing all children to take part with no risks. The hotel is surrounded by a small town with ample restaurants and a few bars. There is a supermarket and a few gift shops. It's small but there's enough. If you take the beach walk along the decking away from the hotel you come to a lovely area of the beach where a lake of fresh water has gathered from the water running off the mountains. There are ducks here and we went everyday for the walk and to feed them. My little one loved it. We also visited the nearby zoo. It's only small but was worth the visit. Overall we've enjoyed our stay but not sure we would come again with such young children. Generally not very young child friendly.
