La Quinta Menorca by Portblue Boutique

We tried to book this hotel last year, but was fully booked, fortunately, we managed to get a late booking this year. It didn't disappoint. From the minute of arrival when concierge took our luggage straight to room, glass of champagne on arrival, the staff couldn't have been more courteous and helpful. The attention to detail is fantastic. Beds are turned down in evening and a quick spruce up of room, mat is placed on floor so you don't have to stand on a cold floor when you get up. Complimentary toiletries in abundance, as well as sewing kit, shoe polish etc. Robes and slippers laid out, and were told that if any time we would like fresh ones just to ask, same with swimming towels which are in bedroom. We had a terrace room looking onto pool, so peaceful and quiet. Tea and coffee making facilities in room, which are refereshed as and when used. Fully stocked mini bar, clean glasses. Air conditioning easy to operate. Room, beautifully clean and beds very comfortable. We had only booked for breakfast, again, food was fresh, hot, the oranges for juice are actually squeezed during breakfast time, all the usual continental offerings as well as pastries, loads of different bread to choose from. Staff are very efficient. We ate in the hotel one evening, food was exceptional. The hotel is adult only so it was blissfully quiet, everyone sitting round pool (plenty of loungers)reading books or just relaxing in sun, no loud music, no screaming children, heaven! The hotel also runs a free shuttle bus into Cuitidella on a daily basis, we tipped the driver as this is a great door to door service and no waiting round for a bus, should be more appreciation for this service. We walked down to the marina in the evening. Ignore the corner entrance of the marina, bit tacky, bit British, move on round find the quality restaurants. There are plenty of supermarkets, pharmacy and clothing stores as well. The supermarket next to the hotel is very good for supplies.

Stayed here for 1st time ever ,nice touch the free fizzv2glasses on arrival,bottle in the room & token for 2more free glasses in bar,breakfast fantastic range of everything for everyone(even more fizz) I don't indulge in mornings! My only niggles are our mirror in room was dirty all week!no hand soap at sink on 1st day(arrival) & we had to ask for shower gel to be filled as it was near empty on day 3,the maid was very prompt at replacing I just feel we shouldn't of had to ask. Our big problem was it wasn't until we got to hotel & read the arrival paper of do'&dont's with girl at reception (only long trousers in restaurant)in evenings my husband only wears shorts(smart) & in those temps would have been too hot for trousers,hence we never used restaurant shame we would have liked to use at least 1night & loss for hotel as we are big spenders!!!!! Bar ok not very busy don't know how it survives favourite barman Manuel very good & young mar tick also good. Outside pool lovely loungers fine don't know why people moan about them,we did notice a youngish couple(40's) at poolside she was topless laying ontop if her partner & he was caressing her body which I feel maybe ok at beach but not at a 5star hotel poolside with mostly elderly customers,local marina max5min walk ok if you like uk buntlins we didn't,so all in all hotel lovely but sadly we won't be back because we really didn't like the area!

Quiet relaxing hotel with excellent really helpful and pleasant staff. Food is above average, and it was nice to get your main course served at the table. Had a lovely spa and my only suggestion would be on a cloudy/rainy day more sun beds should be placed round the indoor pool and in the sauna/jacuzzi area for guests to relax. There was no shortage of beds by the outdoor pool.
