I had read the previous reviews and almost found it too good to be true so i took the plunge with my wife and daughter who is 19 months old, we are big fans of cyprus but the appeal of only a two hour flight and weather not being too too hot this time of year jerked us in the... more

I would echo virtually all the comments made by previous reviewers; this is a really good hotel for young children in particular. We stayed here for two weeks in August with our two girls aged 5 and 3. We booked the Royal Son Bou on the strength of its Trip Advisor reviews after considering dozens of alternatives in Europe and... more

No fourth star? Maybe it's the steep stairs up to the apartments (everybody leaves their buggies below, without concern), the good but unimaginative buffets, no digital TV, no fresh juices at breakfast, no jacuzzi or sauna. Who cares, this is a hotel with a very, very specific target clientele - and for young parents there's only one problem, which is... more

We have just returned from the Royal Son Bou (which we chose based on the reviews on tripadvisor). My review will probably seem very contradictory for which I apologise. The first impressions were great - friendly efficient reception staff, nice apartment, lovely pools & communal areas. The food - I think I have come to the conclusion that I don't... more

We would endorse everything that has been said on previous Trip Advisor reviews. Yes the pool could be warmer and the buffet transfers from amazing to repetetive by the end of a week. However, overall this is a hotel that has targeted its market totally and provides a great service to familes with young children. Add in a decent beach... more

My family and I spent a wonderful and relaxing week in the Royal Sonbou holiday resort at the end of June 2009. We can highly recommend the resort for a number of reasons. First of all one is surrounded by a sense of space and friendliness coming for all the members of the staff. The fact that each family has... more

We have just returned from this hotel and it was the first time we had travelled abroad with our children, who are aged 3 & 5. The flight was fab, thompson provided a great meal with crayons & colouring in for kids. The reps for first choice were everywhere and very helpful throughout whole experience. We got to hotel at... more

Well thought I'd write a review as this was our 3rd trip to the Royal Son Bou. If you have young children then I wouldn't recommend anywhere else. We've visited in June for last 3 years and it was mainly babies to 4-5 year olds, so if you are like us and your children have now gone past that whingy... more

I read the reviews and thought it cannot be this good - it was!! Everything about this hotel was superb and cried out quality! They really care whether you have had a good experience. The beach is superb and really family orientated (my 3 year and 7 year old loved it, as did I for snorkelling). The room was huge... more

Royal Son Bou is by far the best resort we have stayde in on Menorca. Everything is targeted toward children, under the age of 12-14 that is. From Kikoland to the daily Royal Son Bou Fiesta show, it's non stop entertainment. Both pools are great, the main one is spacious enough and friendly for all ages - well, some pool... more
