Binissaida Boutique Hotel

Looks and location

Size of the room

Breakfast was made up of a variety of cold cuts and cheeses and fresh baked bread, croissants and pastries. Home produced Yoghurt and Honey (from they're own Bee Hives) home laid eggs cooked to your own taste, fresh fruits, nuts. granola, cereals and a Gluten free selection. All of Superb quality.

Nothing really that would improve this spot.

The breakfast and dinners in the restaurant were delicious. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The gardens and pool were beautiful and peaceful.

You need a car to get anywhere from the hotel - if you can tear yourself away.

A wonderful retreat. Beautifully planned, lovely grounds, great breakfast. Actively pursuing a sustainable plan with their olive groves and lavender fields.

Saint Joan de Binissaida is a lovely agriturismo just outside Mahon. We booked the Wagner suite with its large terrace overlooking the glorious countryside and hoped for a warm, relaxed few days. But this notion was shattered when we saw the building works immediately opposite, which we had not been advised of, even upon check-in. A large crane arrived on the first morning and there was loud, constant noise all day, not just from the works, but from the builders themselves shouting amongst each other. It was truly awful, and very stressful. Thankfully, the third day was a public holiday and so we managed to have just one enjoyable, relaxing day. As for the restaurant, again, a beautiful setting. But for the first 2 nights many items on the menu were not available, apparently ‘as it is the end of the season’ - yet miraculously, there was a fuller menu available on our last night?! BIzarre! The rice dish with squid and prawns at Euros50 was absurd - there were just 2 or 3 prawn heads in it, no actual prawns (!)and it was so salty we could not even eat it! One evening we had to wait 40 minutes to get a cocktail at the poolside bar as the bar person was late for her shift..….. Most of the staff were very charming and helpful, but overall the whole experience was disappointing and amateurish. For the sake of one week (which it turns out it was), it seemed crazy that the hotel could not have liaised with their neighbours and agreed to start the building works once the hotel had closed. All of the above was relayed to the hotel staff at the time. It is such a shame that what could have been a magical break, turned out to be the complete opposite.
