The Reco Des SOl staff are very friendly and work hard to look after you.

The pool is nice and the surrounding areas are kept clear ad clutter free. There´s a small bar poolside too that is well stocked and offers snacks and drinks throughout the day.

There is good washing machine and dryer available as well as a whole host of rentable items like irons, hairdryers, straighteners, CD players etc. Email the resort direct prior to coming and they can see if they can accommodate any specific requests prior to arrival. Everyone is very friendly. Internet access too here!

With numerous beaches around the area, the closest being about a 5 minute walk away and continuing all along the front towards San Antonio (about 20 minute walk along the front with various pubs along the way) and in the other direction where we found a much nicer choice of bar/restaurants/pubs for those with children or who do not want to spend time clubbing all the time – also cheaper this end of the Bay we could not complain about a lack of things to do or see.

Buccaneers bar – the best with great friendly staff who made you feel really welcome. The excursions provided by Airtours were varied, unfortunately for those arriving on Sunday if you want to do the Tour of the Island consisting of a visit to the caves and vineyards with wine tasting, best you advise your rep on arrival as we missed out as we were only advised during our briefing on Monday – too late. The boat trip to Es Vedra was a great day out, cruise around island, champagne cocktail, champagne diving, stop at a lovely beach for a picnic lunch and a sing along on the way.

We also did the trip the Hippy Market in Es Canara which was ok but we found two and a half hours stay there a bit long so wondered into the town to see the most spectacular views overlooking the sea. Well worth the trip for that alone. You can catch a bus from San Antonio to Ibiza town for Euro 1.55 one way and it is well worth the trip to walk through the old town exploring the tine side streets, visiting the cathedral, etc. A nice day out. We also took the little train from San Antonio for a 20km trip through the back streets of the island, again an enjoyable trip.

Stay away from Reco’s BBQ as already warned as it was a disaster but you never know, they may learn by their mistakes! The staff were extremely friendly and helpful to us especially after I had my handbag snatched – ladies beware – by a cyclist! Let your man walk on the road side or leave your bag at home. There was a children’s playground at the hotel too with a swing and slide – not much but at least something.

We would stay there again as it was within walking distance
