Alcaufar Vell Hotel Rural & Restaurant

Mosquitos and flies in the restaurant, luck of information from the staff.

One of the best hotels I’ve stayed at

Love

The historic property, dating in part to the 15th century and fully modernized, is beautiful and elegant. We had a wonderful stay, delicious breakfast & several other meals & appreciated the kind, very helpful staff. An added attraction is the property’s proximity to hiking/walking trails that tie into the Camino that circles the coast. We would love to visit again!

Nous avons beaucoup aimé la grande chambre et le calme de l’établissement. Les installations sont un peu désuètes et ne correspondent plus aux exigences d’un hôtel moderne et aux prix pratiqués. Le service n’était pas à la hauteur, notamment au restaurant où il fallait beaucoup attendre.

Un environnement de qualité et un cadre exceptionnel

Beautiful hotel quiet & set back in the countryside. Heavenly pool surrounded by olive trees. Charming courtyard where can have breakfast or evening meals. Great couples break. Recommend car hire Autos Menorca. Our flight v delayed & they stayed open until midnight to greet us. Likewise hotel helped liaise with car hire & hotel reception open 24 hrs. Always very helpful.

Calme et situation geo Aucune souplesse pour lademi pension le soir Magre un tarif elevé Exp si un soir absent cest encaisse Et si petite fain cest plein pot Le plan des sentiers au depart de lhotel a mettre a jour et peut etre un petit balisage Et ajouter des circuits Merci Oc

I'm amazing beautiful property, With extremely friendly and nice staff, within beautiful scenery

Great We loved it !!

I really loved this Hotel. Is perfect for families and also for couples. The only thing I did not love was the breakfast, it was too expensive for the quantity and quality of it. I did not try the restaurant for other meals so I can not evaluate them in other services. Personnel was very polite though, no problem with that. Breakfast in this location is very important because the Hotel is in one end of the island where there are not those many services nearby so you can not go in 5 minutes buy some croissants in the corner store. Otherwise, the room was equipped with a fridge with free drinks and Nespresso machine which is very convenient and appreciated.

Wir haben uns sofort in das Alcaufar Vell verliebt! Die Anlage ist wunderschön, die Zimmer gemütlich und das Personal einfach phantastisch! Wir haben direkt wieder gebucht

Beautiful, peaceful and really authentic perfectly fitting the natural beauty of Menorca. Excellent restaurant with great menu based entirely in locally sourced fresh products. Our favourite place on the island.

Precioso lugar con excelente servicio. Necesitan arreglar el wifi!

Fantastic hotel in a beautiful old farm, very friendly staff and relaxing atmosphere. Highly recommended

The hotel was lovely as was the food and the service

Eine der schönsten Unterkünfte ever! Um es vorwegzunehmen: es gab nichts, was uns nicht gefallen hätte! Die Anlage ist von der Lage und der Ausstattung her absolut traumschön! Man muss sich täglich kneifen, ob das nicht alles ein Traum ist. So viel Geschmack bei der Gestaltung und endlose Möglichkeiten, sich zu verlustieren und die Seele baumeln zu lassen, nicht zu vergessen das fabelhafte Essen und das Frühstück im Innenhof. Auch sämtliche Mitarbeiter waren ganz zauberhaft. Dies soll eine Hymne, Ode an ein Hotel sein, in dem ich einen meiner schönsten Urlaube verbracht habe - wir denken oft mit viel Herzensfreude daran zurück!

Great place too relax. Enjoyed the trails to the beach and the ample breakfast serving.

Amazing setting and a perfect blend of modern convenience and historic ambiance. Easy access to beaches, hikes, towns. Fantastic food! Service at the restaurant can be a bit spotty but generally eager and good natured. Superb value for money all the way around.

Très belle cuisine, service impeccable et l’accueil que du bonheur. Le bâtiment principal est magnifique. Tout au top

Un hôtel parfait ! Joliment restauré,( joli tout court) calme, raffiné. Le personnel aux petits soins, d’une grande gentillesse .A deux pas de Saint Louis et des plages, en pleine campagne. Un hôtel où l’on a envie de revenir.

Relaxing and unique a lovely spring break. Staff were all helpful and friendly.

Very nice property with comfortable, well equipped rooms. Atmosphere of property is amazing, terraced gardens, old olive trees. Check in was very friendly with attention to my needs. Plenty of amenities in the room, bubble bad in the room and free drinks in minibar. Only stayed one night but will definitely go back. Great place to relax.

Because this place is so high up you have views of all the lighthouses around the island and you feel that you are able to touch the moon. You also look down at nearby farms as well as towns The staff could not be any nicer or work any harder that they do. And the breakfast was varied and very good The room was on the first floor and was clean and comfortable

Es un hotel muy buen situado, con una excelente cocina. El personal excelente con muy buen trato y profesionalidad. Ideal para un buen descanso

Hotel molto carino e con un ottimo ristorante. La zona non è delle più spettacolari. La spiaggia che si può raggiungere a piedi non è granché. Perfetto per qualche giorno di completo relax in piscina e nell’aperta campagna

This is a fantastic, quiet and beautiful country house. Rooms are very large, well appointed and we had a lovely private terazze, Staff are very friendly . The general feeling is tranquility and peace. We loved it . This place is more then 4 star. Only negative is the very odd large outdoor area in front of the hotel used for breakfast, felt like sitting in a carpark ! Also we were misinformed that this hotel do not allow children under 16. There were several small children there. We will definitely come back.

Un bellissimo hotel rurale immerso nel verde dove trascorrere una vacanza all’insegna del relax

Beautiful old farmhouse with so many interesting features. We just loved the whole ambiance.

Zeer aangenaam hotel, kamers voorzien van alle luxe en zeer smaakvol ingericht.

Fantastic room, friendly staff and beautiful setting.

Increíble experiencia Todo detalles un lujazo

A beautiful setting in the country, rustic buildings with a modern twist. The pool is perfect and the restaurant underneath the olive trees is an amazing and dreamy experience. We are definitely booking again within the next year or two.

We loved the look and setting of this country mansion hotel which was off the beaten track and yet only 8km from Mahon airport.If you are looking for a peaceful and tranquil break look no further than this hotel and I would advise a room within the annexe which have their own private terraces and garden.There is one major plus and one rather disappointing minus.We could not fault the room for cleanliness and comfort however we did feel the dinner and bar area were dull and uninspiring.I would emphasise however that is not true of the breakfast which we both felt were really diverse and tasty from the bread cheese and selection of cold meats to the fresh pastries and bowls of fruit.The staff were extremely pleasant and helpful and particular thanks to Susana on reception who organised the hire of a car which I think is essential given the remote location (no shops restaurants or bars within walking distance). Finally a big thank you to Rosa the "safe cracker" / restaurant manager/ jack of all trades.You know who you are, she helped us on our 1st night when the safe would not open!!!

The location is quiet but close to facilities. Great place to unwind and recharge the batteries.

Very peaceful location. Lovely large room with very comfortable bed. Limited mini-bar but it was free. Good breakfast with choices of pastries, bread cheese, meat and fruit; cooked breakfast available as well. My only complaint with the breakfast was the choice of cereals which was limited to chewy cornflakes and a cheap meusli. Evening meals were very good although there were better resturants close by. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Set in the countryside the chalky drive up to the hotel might make you feel you had made a mistake. Arriving in what used to be an old farm yard you walk round the edge of an old barn to behold a handsome house with surrounding converted stables. It is heavenly. We had a superior room but there were alternatives set in the grounds. The large domed room consisted of its original stone walls. A vey large comfortable bed high quality linens etc and everything you could need. Outside was a private patio with sun loungers table etc. The food was glorious. We ate out twice at renouned restaurants but nothing compared with the hotels own food. Meals were taken out in the candle lit olive groves and in the morning in the garden . Throughout the staff were a high point well trained to please but not to overbear . Expensive maybe but we really did get what we paid for. It was heaven. We will go back.

Beautiful rustic rooms, amazing food, lovely staff

Very isolated, which is great for local running / walking. Lots of places very easy to drive to, but worth having a hire car. Swimming pool was lovely. Heated to 29 degrees whilst we were there, our little boy, 3, loved it. Also a lot of wild tortoises and donkeys, which again he loved.

Beautiful hotel with welcoming attentive staff. Three nights was not enough, we are already planning a return visit.

I hadn't expected this hotel to be as nice as it was for some reason. It is "rustic" but polished, beautifully presented, smart and laidback. The room was a decent size with a lovely little garden/patio area. The grounds of the hotel were immaculately kept, the staff were all very friendly and accommodating and the pool area was very pretty. Worth visiting for the food in the restaurant alone. Must be one of the top ten restaurants in Menorca easily.

The villa is an extraordinary property converted to a charming hotel. The restaurant on site was excellent and the room was beautiful with a king sized bed. Each room has its own patio/garden and the pool area is very comfortable. There were many amenities included such as cold drinks, large pool towels, breakfast and a wonderful coffee machine in The room. The staff was very informative and helpful and we were able to hike the property down to the sea. Bikes are available to rent or use and there are many garden areas to enjoy. I would absolutely return. April was perfect with few tourists and outstanding weather.

Outstanding hotel with first class hotel staff Outstanding restaurant with top class wines at surprisingly reasonable prices. Would definitely stay again.

A wonderful retreat in the Menorcan countryside that was a calm and peaceful place to stay. Staff are very attentive and always on hand to answer questions or give directions. We had a very relaxing time staying here and would highly recommend it to another couple.

Really enjoyed the ambience of this hotel. Staff were very friendly and polite but also discreet.

Charming country hotel in a very peaceful and rural part of Menorca. Staff were excellent, Rosa took great care of us and made us feel very welcome. You do need a car but the larger towns of Mahon and Saint Lluis are close by. Menorca has a shorter season than Majorca, so in late October many of the restaurants in Mahon were closed.

Excellent hotel. Gourmet food. Location some distance local village. Good outdoor spaces and directions for walks, cycle rides etc available. Towels can be taken to beach which is very helpful.

Quiet, nice food,but cheap shabby furnishings only acceptable for half the rate. Double rooms are on the top floor with tiny windows, we had to upgrade to move. Good breakfast, mostly lovely staff.

One of the best hotels we have stayed in if you are looking for a quiet retreat.Staff were very helpful and friendly. Location is rural so a car is a must. Otherwise take a book or two and chill by the pool (you wont be disturbed). Stayed in a Junior Suite away from the house which was perfect and very private. Also, loved watching the tortoise wondering around!

Lovely hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. Cuisine was OK but could be more inventive and some changes during a stay of a week or so are a must. Score 9/10
