Settings don’t get much prettier than at Santo Tomas. This handsome four-star hotel is situated mere footsteps from the lapping blue Mediterranean sea, hidden from sight by Menorca’s rocky headland. The hotel itself is found on one of the longest and most beautiful beaches on the island.

Water babies needn’t content themselves with just the sea though. Santo Tomas has a pretty swimming pool with plenty of comfortable loungers to while away the hours. This charming resort has a quiet, beachfront setting making it a top choice for guests who are looking for a chance to get away from it all. The vibe is peaceful and relaxed, great for families with young children who can run and explore the extensive, well-tended gardens. If you do want to sample a taste of the local town, then Santo Tomas village is very close by. Enjoy a plate of the island’s famous paella in one of the many restaurants that face the dreamy harbour.

Hotel Santo Tomas prides itself on its discreet and attentive staff. So it’s not surprising that so many guests return year after year. And why not? It’s the kind of place that is tied to good things: good food, great times and new levels of R and R.

About the location

The small, serene resort of Santo Tomas is home to two gorgeous, unspoilt beaches. This is a little village where relaxed, low key holidaying is the name of the game - there’s none of the hustle and bustle of neighbouring islands like Majorca. Moreover, Menorca is to poetry what the other Ballerics are to prose.

The whole island was declared a UNESCO international BioSphere in 1993. The accolade aims to preserve environmental areas, such as the Parc Natural S’Albufera des Grau wetlands, and its liberal sprinkling of mysterious Bronze Age sites. These are found on the other side of the island but are still only a 30-minute drive away. Hire a car, explore the site and get to know a bit of the island beyond the beach.

Located halfway up the island's south coast, the village of Santo Tomas itself is picture-perfect. Colourful boats bob serenely in the harbour and a handful of restaurants serve local and international inspired fare. Menorca’s compact capital, Mahon (or Maó, as it is known locally) is about a 30-minute drive, while the island’s other city, Ciutadella, is about 30-minutes in the other direction. It’s lots of fun to jump on a ferry to visit the other islands on day trips, so don’t hesitate to brush off your Spanish and explore the surrounding area.

Santo Tomas is located on the beachfront of Playa de Sant Tomas

In May of this year I had a chance encounter at Ciutadella Hospital (another story!) with a man who told me he was staying at Hotel Santo Tomas, he went there regularly and couldn't recommend it highly enough. I decided to pop in and check it out and was so impressed by what I saw quickly booked a holiday there on our return to the UK. We had had a very difficult year and were looking for pure relaxation, which this hotel excels in. We received a lovely welcome on our arrival last week and refreshing drink and our superior sea view room close to reception was pointed out to us. What a gorgeous spacious room with an exceptional balcony and view! We had a topper put on our bed and it was very comfortable. The bathroom was also spacious and we very much welcomed the Green ethics in terms of toiletries that minimised plastics and towels only washed when on floor. The room was very well cleaned in a very thorough way. We love the relaxation areas in this hotel. In reception, by the bar area outside the restaurant, the terrace, around the pool and in the garden area. It was so comfortable and for the most part very peaceful. Unfortunately, for part of the week, there was a French family with about 4 children of school age left to run wild and scream around the pool all day and after dinner and the parents showed no respect for others at all and did nothing to stop them. We complained as did others. This is not a hotel for children, there are no facilities here for them. It is a hotel for relaxing. Thank you to the manager and staff who had a word with them. Moving on to nicer things, food!😊 The restaurant was excellent and with it's extensive offering, hard working staff and crisp table cloths, it felt like a proper restaurant, not a canteen. Great selection for breakfasts with an egg chef, cooking omelettes and pancakes and toasties! Lovely to see full cream, semi and skimmed options for milk. Lovely pastries. Dinner was also varied with Menorcan specialities, varieties of cheese and freshly cooked meat, fish and pasta. Lovely salad selection. Congratulations to the Maitre D' Juan Maron on his retirement. I can see he will be sorely missed. The bar was very good backed up by Malibu bar where you could sit and watch the sunset. Only 1 criticism here, the hotel bar opens at 3pm and Malibu does not serve freshly squeezed orange juice, so I had to wait until 3pm for the bar to open to get my juice. I had a relaxing massage while I was at the hotel, which was very nice apart from the loud ticking clock in the room, which is the last thing you want when relaxing. We chilled most days, dipped our feet in the sea in front of the hotel and hired a car from AutosMenorca for 1 day and visited the port at Mahon which was fantastic and very beautiful. So all in all we had a fabulous, peaceful holiday, thanks to this wonderful hotel, fabulous location, excellent friendly staff and the chance encounter at Ciutadella hospital that introduced us to this wonderful hotel in the first place. Thank you. Oh..and have I booked for next year? Of course I have 😊
