Monnaber Nou Finca hotel & Spa

We have just enjoyed a two night break at Monnaber Nou. Our second visit to this charming rural hotel and it certainly won’t be our last. Upon arrival we were delighted to be told that we had been upgraded to a suite (early April so hotel not full). The spacious room was on the top floor of the main building, consisting of main bedroom and small living area with large bathroom off the main bedroom. The property is an old finca that was renovated in 1994 and has an air of old-fashioned charm about it, lots of dark wood and although the style is slightly dated, the charm of the staff and the cleanliness of the hotel makes it a top-notch stay. It was actually warm enough to spend a couple of hours by the pool on one of the days and enjoy lunch on the terrace taking in the spectacular views of the estate and surrounding hillsides. My only tip would be to go to breakfast early when there is more choice!

A beautiful rural hotel, set in the heart of wonderful, peaceful Majorcan countryside, but still only 25mins drive from beaches. Characterful room, with a lovely big bed, private terrace and a small kitchenette. Good choice at breakfast, including good continental selection, quality orange juice, plenty of fresh fruit and a few hot items (though the hot items weren’t great quality and were usually not hot!). Beautiful terrace for al fresco breakfast. Nice pool area, and never crowded.

We had two rooms, not next to each other, in the separate (VERY far) set of rooms. They had tiny terraces overlooking the horrible little pool. Both rooms had someone walk in and say 'oh, wrong room'. This was not a wrong room, this was someone walking into each room looking to steal, hoping guests were out by the pool. The hotel did not care, and acted as if they had never heard this before. Second night....same thing!

The resort is wonderfully located if you require peace and quiet and nature. The Hotel is a bit rustic in an elegant way. We were in the lower building? Our room had a balcony that looked over the pool and the meadow. It was extremely clean and quiet. Our bed was 2 twins pushed together which was fine. I must say that the restaurant was outstanding. We looked forward to dining there every evening!

A short stay in June - a perfectly adequate hotel for the price. Its slightly dated in a charming old-fashioned Spanish style with lots of dark wood - you won't find super modern or Uber cool but you will find a clean room, comfortable bed & super friendly and helpful staff. There are two parts to the hotel & upon arrival it's initially confusing as to where to drive to check in. The entrance is impressive but no signs saying which direction to drive & where to park or even where reception is! However all forgotten once you are in your room, and you can appreciate the tranquility & spaciousness of the place. We were not staying in the main hotel, but in the 'other bit' (I don't know what it was called). Please don't for a moment I think that this is inferior to the main hotel, our upstairs room was spacious with a separate seating area leading onto a balcony with two chairs and table, which overlooked the large pool and countryside beyond. The super king bed had a memoryfoam mattress and two pillows each – one being a long bolster & the other a scatter cushion size. My top tip - if you are fussy about pillows, you might want to take your own. The bathroom had a bath with shower over – perfectly adequate and clean with plenty of hot water (the surrounding farm land has their own solar panels ). Being an eco-hotel, they issue you with two large towels each – one for the bathroom and a yellow one for the pool. This is actually a really good idea and saves on a huge amount of laundry (having recently stayed in a very (expensive) upmarket hotel in Menorca where guests liberally helped themselves to pool towels, the caution exercised at Monnaber Nou was refreshing). The surroundings of the hotel are farmland, so expect to hear sheep bleating. You can also hear neighbouring peacocks! It was a very peaceful stay, and we very much enjoyed the large pool and sunbeds. Breakfast at €10. each was plentiful with lots of choice. You can choose to eat breakfast at either venue in the hotel, but we preferred the breakfast at our little annexe, the chap in charge was charming. Overall, a great day, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend but you do need a car!
