SON BOU GARDENS SUP (Son Bou, Menorca) Some developments feel looked after from the moment you walk in, with trees offering shade and a family-friendly atmosphere. This 45 m2 apartment is part of one of them, right in the centre of Son Bou, and offers just what four people need for a quiet base rather than grand luxuries. The communal pool, garden and countryside are visible from the terrace, and the sea is a one-kilometre walk away. INSIDE THE HOUSE. The living-dining room has a TV and free wifi. The open-plan kitchen comes with a freezer, oven and microwave, plus a table where you can eat without leaving the room. Both bedrooms are doubles: one with a 150x200 cm bed and the other with two 90x200 cm beds, so it works well for a family with children or two couples. The single bathroom has a shower and hairdryer. An iron is available for anyone who needs one. OUTSIDE. The terrace has its own furniture and views over the pool, garden and countryside. The complex has landscaped areas, free parking and a children's play area for the little ones. The communal pool measures 24x11 m and operates in season, from 30 April to 24 October; it's managed by the restaurants in the area, so using sun loungers and umbrellas may carry a supplement, and in some cases a purchase is required to use the pool. WHERE YOU ARE. You're in the centre of Son Bou, in a sunny, well-placed spot within the development. The sandy beach is 1 km away, the same as the sea. Shops are close by: one at 200 m, another at 300 m, and a supermarket at 200 m. The "Son Bou" bus stop is 450 m away, and if you fancy a round of golf, the 18-hole course is 20 km away. A car is recommended for getting around comfortably. WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW. The apartment is non-smoking. Baby equipment can be requested, with both a high chair and a cot available on request for children up to 2 years old. Luggage can be loaded and unloaded directly at the property. The nearest airfield is 20 km away. Groups of teenagers are only accepted upon prior enquiry.
