I am a single parent of three and there is always plenty for us to do here. It is safe, you don't even need to go out of the hotel. The staff and reception can't do enough to help you, we have been seven times.

All good.

We stayed  at the Lavante Club Hotel for a week. We have stayed in many Thomson Gold hotels and have been very pleased with them overall, but on this occasion we were very disappointed. We like to leave our door open slightly at night but there  was no way we could here because of noise from bars just across the road. We asked for a quiter room but all rooms suff...&quot;</description>

    <description>Eileen Bunch wrote, &quot;My husband and myself spent a week here in October. My husband has walking dificulties and we found the hotel very remote. We took the bus to nearby resorts but had to get a taxi back. This was due to the bus stop on the opposite side of the road which meant you had to cross a busy dual carriageway, which was in the middle of construction, via a footbridge, which was quite a distance away...&quot;</description>

This complex is fantastic value for money, ten of us stayed for a week all inclusive. The staff were friendly and the service was excellent. I would definitely go back to this complex. It is a five minute walk to the beach and there are three bars across the road if you wanted a change of secenery. The rooms are basic but what does it matter, you only dress and s...&quot;</description>

I read some bad reviews but they are not true, our room was cleaned every day, the only downside was our room was a little small for 4 of us but apart from that is was great. The entertainment at night is very good and the kids club is great.&quot;</description>

The best holiday I have had for a long time. Children enjoyed every minute. Lee is a brillant rep and entertainer. Everyone is very helpful, food is very good and the room was very spacious and clean. We upgraded our room which is worth doing. The only problem was getting a sunbed by the pool. Would return, hopefully next year.

I had been to Son Matias over fifteen years ago when the children were able to go and had a great time then. Now my children are grown up and I have grandchildren, I wanted a child free holiday of good quality. I went to Son Matias after reading reviews and it still seemed to be good. However it was more than good! It was lovely having no children running around...&quot;</description>

Central location, close to all pubs and clubs, but set back slightly so no loud noise.

Rooms were a bit on the small side, but clean and tidy.

Just got home from a fantastic holiday two weeks at Ca'N Ferragut. 38 degrees every day so very hot which made the pool at the villa an absolute must! Be careful with small children as the pool is very deep, with an almost immediate slope from 1 metre down to 1.95m, but once you get used to it it's ok. The pool man came every other day so it was kept nice and cle...&quot;</description>

Whatever you do, do not book this villa. We booked it for two weeks July to Aug 2009. The description on the Menorca Gold webpage is way off mark. It is not air conditioned throughout, the kitchen is tiny and not well stocked (and also very dirty), the cooker and fridge-freezer are on their last legs. The bathrooms are awful. It is not a five minute walk to shops...&quot;</description>

Unfortunately we were very poorly treated by the villa owner, who made up a list of untrue and unfounded accusations to justify not returning a very sizeable deposit. This has thoroughly disappointed us in this type of holiday and will ensure we never choose one like this again.&quot;</description>
