Discreta
Ottima comunicazione con la struttura amche via whatsapp, ottima posizione vicino il mare ma gli appartamenti becessitano di piccoli lavori di rifiniture essendo un po datati come si può notare dagli infissi. La pulizia è fatta in maniera molto generale, in alcuni angoli e dietro il letto c'è qualche ragnatela inoltre a terra ogni tanto si notano diversi vermetti... per il resto tutto ok

Perfect getaway
Great stay at son bou gardens as usual perfect for a quiet getaway staff friendly and helpful our apartment looked like they’ve been modernised since we last came pre covid and they were working on other whilst we were there €5 charge for beds at he gondola pool is the only let down but we used the son bou restaurant pool in zone 3 where it’s €3 but you get that back if you buy food and the fish & chips in there is amazing as are the staff especially Lucy the owner also being a Leicester city fan like me lol already looking for next year.

You get what you pay for
Pros - No doubt this is good value in the sense that you can sleep 5 people (4 singles and a “sofa bed”) for a reasonable price. The sofa bed was not really a bed. - The exterior and the grounds looked nice and were well kept - You could use the pool for free, although we were told at check in “not to stay there all day”... - Satellite TV Cons - The interior of the apartment was old and tired. I’d estimate that the apartment was last updated in the 80s. The floors and surfaces were not well cleaned and though we stayed for a week, there was no cleaning service for that length of stay. - Though there was a kitchen with toaster and oven, when we tried to use them, the fire alarm would go off, probably due to accumulated oil and dust on the elements - The towels were only changed once - Though we could use the pool, you did have to pay for sun beds. It’s only a few of euros per bed per day, but people ended up just setting up on the floor. The pool can get pretty packed. - It’s about a 20 minute walk to the beach... not too bad, but there’s no shade all the way there, so be prepared. - Due to COVID-19 there were fewer people than usual when we were there, but nevertheless there were large herds of children who would roam around without supervision and could be quite loud even past midnight, just outside our bedroom window Conclusion: basic accommodation for a budget price

Peace and quiet
2nd stay here. Love the quiet serenity of the place. Apartments set in beautiful gardens well maintained. Many privately owned. 3 pools 3 zones 3 restaurants on complex with shops/bars etc 5 mins walk into Son Bou. very quiet in May when we were there but that is how we like it. Some days had the whole pool to ourselves. Love it here. Rooms basic rustic style but not a problem for us. Many privately owned. Would love to live here!! Car advisable if you want to explore this beautiful island. Sorry photos will not upload tried 3 times on my mobile.

Nice stay
Stayed here for 5 days in September 18, nice appartment with all the basics you need. Beds were a bit on the hard side. Local area very nice with plenty of choice for meals. Could do with some sunbeds for the balcony.

Happy overall and we would repeat
Lovely resort with good swimming pool and restaurant for a quick lunch. Particulary one of the swimming pools with Grass around. Checkin was very slow due to the lack of communicaton between hotels.com and the resort. They did not have my booking confirmation where the discount was visible and I spent half an hour to find it and email them. That should be improved as check in ahould be quick. Apartment was located in a nice area near pool, restaurant and bakery. Happy that bathroom was newer than expected as I know these apartments can have a very old one. Kitgen appliances and furniture need a refresher and maybe change it for something a bit better. Beds are a bit uncomfortable as after few days we could feel a hole in our mattress, so we turned the sides and it was a bit better. It would great to have washing machine, at least a sharp knife to cut meats, etc. There is only one for bread. All my comments is to provide conatructive feedback and help to manage this better, we were very happy overall and we would go back as kids loved it, t is very quiet and very good location to visit calas around the island. We did not missed aircon as fans on the ceiling are ok if you also keep blind windows closed to avoid mosquitos.

Some much better than advertised. Great break
The apartment was great, better than advertised and therefore expected. I would recommend Son Bou highly. There are a couple of niggles the main one to be aware of is the rental charge for the sun beds. But that is a small niggle. The pools are really good. Do let that put you off. Hire the beds and relax. On the plus side the rental charge meant that the pool wasn’t to busy. So that’s a silver lining.

Basic apartments - not good value for a couple
Basic apartments that increased in price quite a lot over the past six years. Unfortunately you do not have a choice which apartment in what complex you like to stay - you get what you're given. They now come with dishwasher and wash machine as well as TV - unfortunately this has only Spanish channels. The mattresses and the sofa uncomfortable, cheap plastic chairs on the balcony. Not much to do on rainy days. The complex is nice and very well kept. Son Bou is a fantastic beach resort and Menorca a great island.

Son Bou apartment self catering
Basic accommodation but clean. No air con and rather dated facilities. Good size apartment, could be easily brought up to date, you get what you pay for. 5 minute walk to local town and beach. Evening entertainment good and choice of 3 pools. Table service at restaurants can be very slow and take an hour to get service at busy periods at Gondola bar and San Jaime bar, seems understaffed.

Decent complex let down by poor quality apartments
The reviews for Son Bou are over exaggerated. It's a decent complex with well cared for gardens and a good range of pools but badly let down in our case by a very poor quality apartment. Poor quality beds, furniture, no air conditioning and generally a feeling of under investment by the owners. Probably because the apartment was actually up for sale which we found out when we went in! The apartment wasn't that clean and not particularly well equipped. In this day and age you do expect more for your money despite the two/three star ratings. If just a bit of investment was made it would make a huge difference to the overall holiday experience.

Gorgeous apartments
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Son Bou. The apartment was lovely, very clean and well-equipped. The staff were welcoming and were able to answer all questions and queries. Each room had a ceiling fan which was a lovely surprise. Whilst the apartment was clean, and we received one towel change over our 7 day stay, we were disappointed that our sheets were not changed. We had access to both the pool at son Bou gardens and the pool at San Jaime, both of which were clean and nice to use. It was disappointing that sun loungers were €2.50 each, we chose to use beach mats instead. Overall we had a lovely stay at Son Bou Gardens, I would highly recommend.

Praktisch, aber....
Der Ort ist sehr praktisch, um Ausflüge zu unternehmen und den Pool zu nutzen, wenn Sie am Nachmittag ankommen. Aber es gab einen kaputten Türrahmen, bei Regen sickerte Wasser durch die alten Fenster in die Zimmer, aus der Toilette lief Wasser aus und auch die Wasserhähne in Dusche und Badewanne funktionierten nicht richtig. Es ist seltsam in einem Land, das immer mehr zur Wüste wird und in dem Wasser so dringend benötigt wird, dass es aufgrund mangelnder Wartung der Anlagen so verschwendet wird.
