Advantages: Great for families Disadvantages: Location
...The Son Blanc Apartments are located in Sa Caleta, not far from the old town of Ciutadella. It is split between a quiet road with standard sized rooms and standard self catering facilities. The Hotel staff are all excellent and the entertainment is provided by the tour operator and local entertainment companies.
Their are two pools situated on either side of the complex, but with the amount of apartments, the sunbeds are a struggle to find. A small shop is located on-site and a small commercial area is situated about 5-10minutes walk away with a few restaurants, bars and shops. One of the best restaurants on the island is about 20 minutes walk away, Sa Quadra (recommended). The beach is 5 mintues walk but is small. A regular bus service runs by the Son Blanc to take you to the old town of ciutadella. The resort is a quiet one, but dense...

...Where is Shangri la?
I was always led to believe it was the perfect place to be.
Shangri la in India, (Nepal) or would it be Pennsylvania in the USA? Both have places named after it. So do a few others.

...Okay so this is infact my third attempt at writing this review because ciao keeps deleting it!
Anyway…
Menorca/Minorca♥
I thought that, in order to talk about the resort, Sa Caleta Playa I would need to just brief you on the island. Minorca is a small island and it’s one of the Balearics. Its neighbour is Majorca but it is nothing like Majorca. You can drive around Minorca in a day because it is so small. Minorca still has its traditional features and it nowhere near as ‘touristy’ as Ibiza of Majorca.
