We have just returned from a 10-night stay in Cala Galdana at the Hotel Sol Gavilanes. Whilst we cannot fault anything at all about Cala Galdana and the local restaurants, we were not impressed at all by the hotel´s own restaurant. The breakfast buffet was OK, but needless to mention that on one occasion, while we were dishing up our... more

After reading previous reviews of the hotel we were a bit dubious about booking but went ahead anyway. I must say that the hotel and the resort were certainly what we had been looking for -quiet, picturesque a good place to chill out after a wet summer in Scotland. The rooms were a bit dated but adequate, the view from... more

A very welcoming and streamlined hotel with all conveniences easily accessible. Rooms very comfortable with stunning views over the bay (as long as the large trees outside some windows doesnt spoil them - rooms on floors 4 and above needed). The beach and nearby shops and bistros are delightful. Food is plentiful but rather predictable,service is fast and efficient. Car... more

As already mentioned the hotel is well situated on the beautiful beach, that is the best bit. The worst bit is the restaurant. The Managers were incredibly rude and would switch off the coffee machines/toasters by 10.20 when breakfas was until 10.15. The breakfast was passable but the dinner food was terrible as in cold and tasteless. I had to... more

Holidayed with Thomas Cook to a four star hotel?? The holiday cost over £1200 to Menorca staying at the Sol Gavilanes. Firstly, the cost to holiday operator was expensive with no extras, with today's standards you would think it cheaper, no flight meals no seats together etc etc. The hotel was very very nice, but certainly not a four star.... more

This hotel is fantastic - the location is great, views are amazing, staff are very friendly and extremely helpful, food choice was superb and quality was fantastic. This is not a place to go if you are after nightlife and lots of bars and clubs, but for pure relaxation you couldn't ask for more. The beach just steps away from... more

A well run hotel and would say warrants its 4 star status . Rooms a little small but adequate with exceptional views across the bay . If you go to Cala Galdana most of the nightlife is based around the hotels and stops at around 11 pm . Thanks goodness I'm a light drinker as the prices in the part... more

The consistent comment that stands out in every review, and which we would echo, is the lovely location of the bay in front of the hotel, and the beautiful beach. You can not fault its stunning views. If you want a very lazy holiday, then Sol Gavilanes makes that very possible. The hotel lifts take you straight down to the... more

MAKE SURE YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR: Floor 5 and above has the best views in Cala Galdana. We specified a sea view at the hotel when making the telephone booking with Direct Holidays, now owned by Thomas Cook, as we have a lovely view of trees at home. Happy to pay through the nose for it, as the... more
