Carmen was helpful and responsive to the questions I asked her. The apartment is as you see in the images. Bedrooms are OK in size with decent storage and comfortable beds. Air con fitted in master bedroom. Bed sheets and towels are provided. Kitchen has everything you need including dish washer, microwave and washing machine. On the whole the apartment is of a slightly better standard and more modern then many available for this price.

The outside space is bright and airy with a comfortable chairs, lanterns and sun loungers. Large sliding doors make the terrace feel a part of the main living area.

The apartments surrounding this one are mainly owned and not rented out so we did not experience much noise from the neighbours. There is however a large hotel on the other side of the creak which you don't see in the photos. While we were there (June 11th) it was not very noisy but it could become an issue at busy times.

Finding the apartment was not easy so be sure to get a detailed street map before you go. Once you know where it is its simple but you wont find it first time without a map. There is an allocated parking space very near.

The area behind the apartment ( Urbanització Torre de Ram / Los Delphines ) was the last thing I wanted to find upon arrival. English bars, Irish pubs, bouncy castles, Sunday lunches and fried breakfasts. Maybe great for some but not for me. The worst area i saw on this side of the island. A faded tourist town. Handy for the shops but not a Spanish experience.

With all that said, once in the apartment the tacky town was easily forgotten. Hire a car and visit the many stunning beaches or beautiful towns and ports.

Ciutadella is 15 mins in the car and has everything you need from familiar supermarkets to authentic Spanish stores, foods, crafts, markets all at even better prices.

The location of the apartment is probably the best on the island for access to everything else. 45 mins end to end and never more then 30 mins to reach yet another beautiful beach. Roads are never overcrowded and in most places its free to park.

Minorca seems to have been saved in many places from over development which for me was the best part about it. Many parts of the island are now protected from further development. It has a lot of rustic charm (if you avoid the tourist traps), clean beaches, good food, value for money, friendly locals and great weather.

We were sad to leave and would happily go back again. I would also happily stay in this apartment again. Hope this was helpful.
