Lovely stay at Son Bou Gardens

Lovely stay st son bou gardens based in zone 3 which is probably the best location, apartment was clean and comfortable including all the essentials for a self catering holiday. Great view also so would recommend a upper floor apartment. Close by to the pools, onsite supermarket, amazing bakery, and short stroll into the resort.

The apartment was clean. I was nervous due to reading other reviews. But we were happy. I know they said bedding would be changed once a week and towels were twice, which was fine. But they're was no cleaning, ie bathroom, mopping floors. We always go on self catering holidays. So disappointed. It was as if we had booked an Eir B&B. Reception staff were friendly & helpful.

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.

Update

The reception a bit too far away from my apt . Rather dated interiors and a sofa-cama in the living room that looked absolutely disgusting, l would never sit on it! A bit rediculous to have to check out at 10 o'clock and you HAVE to go to the reception(15 min walk) just to leave the key, seems very yesterday! Anyways, the place is in a wonderful location the gardens and views fantastic. The proximity to the wonderful beach of Son Bou simply great. With just a little update of the interiors change of check-out pilicy this would be perfect!

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

Gli appartamenti sono bellissimi, localizzati in un residence in mezzo al verde stupendo. Sono attrezzati con tutto il necessario, dalla cucina al bagno, sono provvisti di terrazzino e balcone per stendere, hanno condizionatori e pale a soffitto che rendono il clima favorevole. Sono a 15 min a piedi dal mare , ma ci Sì arriva camminando in pianura quasi… stupendo! Non era chiaro che la piscina fosse a pagamento… per il resto ok! Anche il servizio di transfer da/per aeroporto puntualissimo.

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.

Ottimo appartamento per una famiglia .

Appartamento molto grande, due camere da letto piccole ma confortevoli . Bagno molto bello e box doccia spazioso . Cucina ben fornita e patio esterno molto carino . Piscina proprio di fronte al l’appartamento. L’unica pecca è stata quella di non portare via la spazzatura degli ospiti precedenti. Il sacco con la spazzatura e quello con le lenzuola sono rimasti 3 giorni davanti all’ingresso .
