Family holiday review: All-inclusive holiday in Menorca
If your idea of a perfect holiday is one where your family's every need is catered and paid for, then look no further
“The Insotel Club Punta Prima stretches down a hillside to the coast and is the complete family hotel holiday with everything you need on site, so it was perfect for me and hubby David, 34, and our 3-year-old daughter, Olive.
"Its two large outdoor pools both have shallow children’s pools, with plenty of room for everyone and no mad scramble for sun loungers in the morning.
"Each apartment had a balcony or terrace for a bit of private outside space, and the inside was spotlessly clean, with a little kitchenette that had all the utensils we needed for the week. Olive loved the playground and we used the kids club for a bit of a break – it had a whole host of activities and was clean with friendly staff.
"The beach was a three-minute walk down the road, which has a scattering of good local restaurants if you fancy a change of scenery. One of the best things about the resort was the friendly atmosphere. We met another family on the flight over and saw them a few times at the pool and at dinner, which was lovely for us and Olive as she had other young children to play with.
"And we loved how helpful the staff were with any questions. We had a fantastic rep who took care of everything and nothing was too much trouble. Having never done all-inclusive before, we’d go back in a flash based on this week.”
Holiday highlight
“If you fancy a bit of peace and quiet, escape the sun with a spa day in the wellness centre (charged extra) where you’ll find a quiet indoor pool, gym, sauna and beauty salon. It gave me some much-needed me-time."
