San Luis Hotel Reviews
" fantastic holiday !! "
Submitted By: bateson family
Arrived home yesterday to a very wet UK, wishing we were still at San Luis hotel.The hotel very clean, maids working until 11pm at night keeping the hotel spotless. The food was excellent, great choices available and the show cooking a must. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the omlettes at breakfast are very good.
The poolside pasta/pizza bar was also very good, daily pasta and pizza option.
The sports facilities excellent, especially as we had a very sporty 14 year old with us !
The staff were very polite and helpful.The restaurant has an inside and outdoor area and on our last evening we requested a table outside, the area was full but the restaurant manager soon found us a table outside. The evening entertainment a bit cheesy at times but game for a laugh!
On the whole a quiet, relaxing holiday with good food and excellent facilities, but this is typical menorca, if you dont like a quiet tranquil holiday then avoid menorca!
Looking forward to returning next year.

" San Luis is OK "
Submitted By: ianj.townsend
2 Adults and an infant traveled.
The hotel is nice the rooms are a bit small and the beds were uncomfortable.
The all inclusive was good although the poolside snacks weren't as good as other all inclusives I have stayed at before so we went to the dining room at lunch time as well.
The food was as expected plenty of fresh fruit and salad. The omlettes at breakfast were excellent.
The resort of S'Algar is tiny there is nothing apart from a supermarket. No beach in this area Punta Prima further down the coast was better and a bit more lively.
For a first holiday was a 9 month onld the San Luis was perfect all quiet by eleven very clean and other small children to mix with.
Trip to Mahon was excellent really lovely city worth a visit.

" Aviod in October "
Submitted By: picasso123
Our visit was 20th October for 1 week, it was like entering the Village of the Damned, streets abandoned, villas empty, hotel graded 3/4 star, what a joke, it had no facilities expected nowadays even its own mini market was closed, we went half board, to survive you need full board as the village seems to pack up well before end of season. The well priced local bus had its last run to the hotel at 6.30pm from Mahon, meaning you were stranded in S'algar with only a 300 yard water frontage for an evening stroll as darkness dropped, any thoughts on a relaxing drink or meal in the village was only possible in one bar sandwiched in a residential area with no views. The nearest 'beach' was about a mile away reached via a rocky foreshore, no go for prams or those with walking difficulties.
Fancy a day out of San Quentin- sorry San Luis, do not entertain the Reps trips, if you ever see the Rep, they are a total rip-off, the local but is good but plan in advance for the last bus back.
Even as the last batch of holiday makers was arriving, tables & chairs were being cleaned and put into winter storage, poolside snackbar was emptied & closed and food got more repetitive to lower the kitchen stock.
On the whole I was happy to return home, at a different time of year the Hotel & Resort may be more alive, but my experience of the October booking was the pits, it has put me off ever visiting Menorca again, this tim of year it will be mainland Spain or Madeira in future

" Just returned from a 10 night holiday... "
Submitted By: Mrs K Moses
Just returned from a 10 night holiday at the San Luis, the hotel was super the rooms were the usual standard always clean etc the only difference we could find from a 3* was that shower gel and tissues were provided.
Food, there was always lots of choice, you can eat inside or outdoors, you are shown to a table which is nice especially when busy. You can enter the restaurant upto the closing time and the food is left for you to choose from with no rush.In other hotels we have found that the food is quickly removed as soon as it's closing time.
The pizza/ pasta restaurant is great, we found either the pizza or pasta of the day a suitable choice each time we went( which was most days).
The poolside bar is only 11am -5pm which just isn't long enough, the girl who serves in this bar is super always happy, friendly and wears a smile!
The sports area has lots of choice, tennis, table tennis, mountain bikes, bowling etc which is great if you want a change from the pool. No inflatables are allowed in the pool which is a bit boring.
The small beach is a 15 minute walk, it is well worth it as it's so idyll.
The only problem we had was the resort is so quiet, only 2-3 shops and bars. We like to have a walk around at night whilst the mini disco is on but in S'algar that isn't really worth doing.

" Just returned from week's All... "
Submitted By: Miss C Douglas
Just returned from week's All Inclusive holiday at San Luis Hotel. Had a fab time. The rooms were very comfortable (great beds though had to request extra pillow) and extremely clean. In fact, there appears to be constant cleaning throughout the hotel. The food was lovely, lots of choice - we had two 15 year olds with us and they were satisfied. Pizza and pasta bar at lunchtime very nice too. One visit to Asia Restaurant included - had a great meal in there, though would recommend to book soon after arriving. The sports faciilities were quite comprehensive - a big hit with our teenagers, especially the football and gym. They also enjoyed the pool games (volleyball and waterpolo). We were a bit concerned having read previous reviews that this hotel is not suitable for teenagers - but no worries at all, our fifteen year olds loved every minute and made loads of friends! It's probably not great for 18 and 19 year olds, but don't think they would want this type of holiday anyway. There's no nightlife in the resort at all, but the hotel entertainment is good for a laugh!
The only niggle was the bar service - very slow, definitely need more staff to man it. The poolside bar is probably the best bet, but is only open at certain times.
Other than that, we all had a great time and to anyone going soon - I'm jealous!!

" just arrived back home from a week... "
Submitted By: Mrs J S Moore
just arrived back home from a week all inclusive at the San Luis Hotel, S'Algar, Menorca..... rooms were basic, but very neat and cleaned daily.
The food was ok, but one thing that let it down, was the all inclusive bit...... If you ate at the pool bar (Pasta & Pizza), then you only get a choice of the dish of the day plus one other as part of the All Inclusive, so if you want something else, you have to pay a surcharge... ranging from 3-8 euros. The buffet wasn't bad always something there, really nice salmon and steaks on the grill!! lots of salad, fresh fruit, and the puddings are fantastic!! you must try the chocolate mousse... doesn't look like much, but if you have a thing for chocolate you will be sorted! There are lots of kitchen people around, so the food doesn't get left for ages under the heat lamps, but are regularly removed and fresh stuff put there. The waiters are really helpful and friendly too.
The drinks at the lobby bar finish at 11pm for those on All Inclusive, then you have to pay! To say that the bar staff are not overly customer orientated, maybe a slight understatement! They will stand and chat for a good 5 mins (between themselves) or even leave the bar whilst you are standing there waiting!!... without even acknowledging you are there!!! Bl**dy annoying that was!! then they serve people in no particular order...
The childrens pool is absolutely freezing, and stuck at the back of the grounds under loads of pine trees, so very shaded. The pool area is not as big as it looks in the photos, its also been decked now which is better.
We are a family of 5, small child of 3, two older teenagers... wouldn't recommend for older ones (16+) unless they are outgoing and sporty... loads of stuff by the sports bar, mountain biking (must take your trainers!!!!), mini golf, bowls, boules, tennis, football, gym.. then the usual pool tables/air hockey.....
Very quiet resort, so don't expect too much nightlife.. all the entertainment finishes at 11pm!

" Just returned from Hotel San Luis and... "
Submitted By: Mrs Debbie Stamps
Just returned from Hotel San Luis and would like to say what a great time we had, Hotel was kept spotlessly clean especially the pool area and sporting areas. The maid did a brilliant job of cleaning the room and changing towels daily. The food although a bit repetitive was well presented and even our fussy teenager always could find something he liked.
The hotel entertainment at night was usually ok (one or two blips) but the children's animation were excellent, as were the staff, who were always very friendly and helpful.
There isn't much to do outside of the hotel at night and older teenagers may find this a bit too quiet for them. Perfect for families and couples though.
Free train (7pm-10pm) runs every 20 mins or so and has several drop-off points. Very few shops so if you want shops you'll have to go into Mahon (20 minute drive away).
Sports facilities great and for a 10 euro refundable deposit you can hire beach towels from main reception (less luggage).
There is a lido with steps into the sea but we preferred to use the pool at the hotel, although some friends we met walked to the next cove and said the beach there was lovely.
All inclusive is a must if you have children as drinks can be expensive and with AI all drinks, ice creams, nuts, crisps are free throughout the day and evening.
Definitely going back next year.

" We arrived very late to the hotel... "
Submitted By: Mrs N Irving
We arrived very late to the hotel 23:30 we were greeted by an empty hotel !! where was every one, after requesting two rooms next to each other we had been allocated one on the 2nd floor and one on the 3rd floor. The next morning we were very kindly given two rooms together on the 3rd floor by a very helpful reception staff member.
Breakfast was the usual buffet style and continental very nice but the same every day.
This was served between 07:00 and 09:30.
There was no bar All Inclusive starting untill 11:00 so if you want tea or soft drink in between not good cause u had to pay.
The rooms are spacious even with 3 beds in them and very clean, bathrooms very modern and hairdryer in them. We had sea view rooms witch is a must as the other rooms over look the carpark.
Hotel main areas were very clean and always tidy, pool areas are very nice and as we went in june we always got a good spot all though the pools in the main San Luis hotel are to deep for small children unless in with and adult.
The best option as we did every day was to walk down to the Los Narangos apartments where you can still get All inclusive, one or two familes and plenty of space. The pool down here was the best for children as they could stand up in the water.
Lunch at the poolside bar was as others said 3 items to choose from on All Inc pizza of the day a pasta dish and ice cream etc and one free drink.
Lunch in the main hotel was buffet style nice food, pretty much the same every day, chips and meat dishes fish and pasta, and also soup of the day, cold meats and salad. Not much choice if you have very fussy kids with you.
Evening entertainment wasn't the best and some times very laugh able, i hope you get to see the flamenco dancers and the magican as they were about the best.
Kinds mini disco is 20:45 -21:30 and its the normal two reps and a few kiddy songs.
Mini club during the day is 10:00- 12:15 over at the sports bar across from the main hotel carpark, this was ok but my kids were bored and only went once. They are 8,6.
The transfer from the Airport with Thomson has no rep at this hotel as they have the new phone line thing call if you have a problem, all though the First choice rep was very nice and said if we needed anything to see her about it.
Weather was very change able for June and we did see some rain and clouds but, still we have come home with very nice tans.
SAGA HOTEL = lots of older folks sat reading there books and playing cards, a few funny look from them if the chilldren were making noise !!
I took drinks to the room and nobody stoped me i even took my drink from luch or tea with me into the main hotel.
The lobby bar staff are very slow except if you are a paying customer, and there was one that i think was head man and he was very moody if ordering more than 4 drinks !!
saying that there were two younger men who tried very hard to please everyone.
Poolside bar oprn for a few hours a day and had to go and get the woman from the main bar nearly all the time if you wanted out, as she didnt stay in the hut like she should ov !!
Overall a nice man made resort sport 3 shops and 2 hotels a diving centre and 3 lots of apartments , there is no where to walk to in the evenings and could be very boring.
Back at the hotel they stop All Inc at 11:00 pm, and like everyone in bed by midnight.
In fact we were using the computers late one night and they turned all the lights off !!
very rude in deed.
Balcony lights go off at 12:30pm and people bang on walls to tell u to shut up, so you cant even have a late night in your room, the wall bangers are the SAGA guest !!
Overall we had a great week but that is long enough here in this resort, Menorca is lovley but would like to try the North next time.

" We have been to quite a few all... "
Submitted By: Mr T Widdicombe
We have been to quite a few all inclusive hotels before and this is by far the worst and it needs to be sorted out, The pasta bar by the pool has two choices of salad and pasta dishes offered to all inclusive but you can PAY for other meals, thats not what we class as all inclusive!, paying guest get preferential treatment and the bar staff are so slow we worked out that was probably a ploy to save giving away too many drinks. The food was ok but it never varied 1 week was enough. Young families beware this is a SAGA (lots of elderly people) hotel which we were not aware of when we booked. If you wanted a pool towel you needed to pay a deposit and another couple of euro's to get a clean one (not all inclusive!) any drinks served after 11pm had to be paid for (not all inclusive!) The pool bar never opened strange for half term week and then we got told off for getting drinks from the hotel bar with wet feet so open the pool bar then. In conclusion if you want a decent holiday all inclusive with quality food go to a RIU hotel and stay away from Spain I think they have just given up and are taking us for a ride!!

Submitted By: Mrs D Widdicombe
Where do you want me to start. All inclusive NO, free bar shuts at 11pm want anything after that you have to pay, poolside cafe only about 4 items on menu were all inc you had to pay extra for anything else you wanted off the menu. Poolside towels you have to leave a deposit and then pay more if you wanted a clean one. if going in high season june july aug you'll have to fight for a sunbed and dining table. If you go out of season you will be welcomed by many many OAP's. Service at the bar, if you were paying you were served first, especially when the tea dancers were bused in and took over the hotel. Food edible never realy changed much. Resort ghost town. GOOD THINGS very clean. ASIA restaurant a definate.

" We went to Menorca for the first time... "
Submitted By: Mr Ma Green
We went to Menorca for the first time this year, the hotel was fantastic everything was as described in the brochure. We had a lovely room which was very clean with a wonderful sea view.
The food was good with a great choice, something for everyone. The resort is very quiet so if you are taking teenagers or want nightlife this is not the place to go. The beach is ten minutes walk away but well worth a visit.
The bus into Mahon is a bit like a cattle truck as they pack that many people on so be prepared to stand for the duration of the journey. The entertainment was the only disappointment as it was not very good.

" I travelled to Menorca for the first... "
Submitted By: Mrs S Burrows
I travelled to Menorca for the first time this year with my husband, 3 year old daughter and my parents in their late 50's, we were not sure what to expect but had a fabulous time and will definitely go back next year.
We thought the hotel was superb and had brilliant facilities. Our hotel rooms were clean and provided us with a good base for our holiday. The hotel was clean and friendly and the food and drink (including alcohol) was of a good standard.
It was a family friendly hotel without it feeling like a Butlins in the sun!! It was lively without being rowdy and it felt safe for our daughter to play and run around.
The staff were friendly and were always on hand to help and we found the entertainment at times laughable (the magician whose tricks kept going wrong was most amusing!), but always enjoyable and if the evening entertainment didn't take your fancy, then nobody is forcing you to stay and watch!
My only complaint, and it is a small one, is that in the morning, if you were not going into the restaurant, there were no drinking facilities until after 10am. Not good when you have a 3 year old that gets up at 8 every morning and all you want is a coffee! It is also a shame that you cannot take drinks to your room or have drink making facilities in the room, but in the scheme of things, not a huge disappointment.
The resort of S'Algar itself was very beautiful and although there was no beach, it was only a short walk away to a lovely cove.
In the evening, if you are all inclusive, you can use the facilities of other hotels within the all inclusive package and the Asian restaurant looked and sounded lovely, but unfortunately, we left it too late to make a reservation and missed out. I would highly recommend going to the Asian restaurant early in the holiday to make sure you can make a reservation during your stay. There are also a few bars and restaurants near the sea front and they were also run by very friendly people and always made you feel welcome.
On Menorca itself, I would recommend hiring a car as it is a beautiful island and well worth visiting a few places during your stay. On the whole one of the best holidays I've ever had and will be going back without a doubt.

Because it is not a totally all inclusive hotel even with an armband you constantly have to state your room number for drinks and meals. The staff treat AI customers differently, i.e. smaller wine glasses and no waiter service.
Some of the staff were very rude especially the bar staff and the guy that serves in the poolside bar very lazy and slow. The games room for some reason is all closed and locked up at 6 in the evening which we thought very strange.
The restaurant don’t open the outside doors at lunchtime and when we asked why they said it was too hot! The Asia restaurant only provide half a glass of wine with the meal and if you want more you have to buy it! This is not all inclusive.
The pasta restaurant by the pool is only open 3 hours a day which we felt was a waste and AI guests had a small option to choose from without having to pay which we thought was a bit off!
On the plus side the hotel was very clean and the food good. Also thought the little train was good fun but should run all day!

The food is ok but after 10 days I had had enough. I would recommend the Asian restaurant though. We were all inclusive and you are allowed to go once during your stay but we liked it so much we paid extra to go another time.
If you want a sunbed then you need to get up early. People were putting their towels down from 6.45am in the morning which was ridiculous. I normally went down at 8am and could get the 3 beds we needed. I hate doing it but if you don't, then getting a bed is difficult.
Overall this was a great break, but we love the quiet and knew what to expect. I spoke to a lot of people that found it too quiet initially but got used to it in the end.
Advice: Quiet and out of the way
Activities: Go to the Asian for a meal
