My boyfriend and I stayed here for 12 nights last July (2011) and had a wonderful holiday. Having been extremely lucky the previous year with a unexpectedly gorgeous hotel in Crete- we had high expectations which we weren't sure would be met, having read the reviews before we went. However, we were very pleased. When we first arrived we were... More

My husband and I stayed at the Carema Aldea Playa for two weeks at the end of August 2011. Our appartment was what you would expect, basic but ok and right by the pool which was great. Due to being on a budget we booked all inclusive but were horrified to discover that the Aldea had no bar or restaurant... More

My husband and I have travelled all around the world, We love Europe, and wanted to try something different. So, for our last holiday we chose the island of Menorca. We read about the Carema Aldea Playa and decided to book it, at very good rates. The apartments are unpretentious, simple but very nice, in typical Spanish style (we got... More

Great place, the apartement we had came with a see view and located clsoe to the pool. The service from the reception was excellent, very helpful and friendly. the location was great just a 20 min walk from Fornells or a 5 min bus ride which was only 1.10 Euro, very close to the apartment there were 2 great places...

The Aldea is on the opposite side of the road to the Carema Club Playa which is mostly an all inclusive resort for Italians. As a result, the Club is busier and noisier whilst the Aldea is quiet and was virtually empty whilst we were there. The apartments are very basic so don't expect to prepare any lavish meals. Nonetheless... More

I was in Carema Aldea with my friends in June'11. It was damn cold in the apartment and everything was really damp including bedsheets. so it was really uncomfortable to sleep in these cold and damp rooms. There also was very poor pressure for cold water so it was almost impossible to take a shower and very easy to get... More

We are sorry to hear that Christina did not enjoy her recent stay with us at La Aldea Playa. Despite the unusually poor weather conditions in Menorca at the time, which were wet and cool, we still received good feedback and reviews from other guests during that period. If the client had reported the problems and her discomfort to the... More

I recently spent a week in Playa de Fornells in Menorca at the Carema Aldea Hotel. The hotel is an apartment hotel situated right next to a beach which although fairly small is connected by steps to Cala Tirant –a much larger and sandy beach. The resort has on or two good bars and restaurants and closet o the tradicional... More

We booked a one bedroom apartment here for a very cheap rate so we weren't expecting luxury! However, the apartment absolutely stank of smoke - I think 30 years of smoke had impregnated every wall, floor and cupboard! The location is ok - right by the sea and walking distance to the the couple of restaurants in Playa de Fornells.... More

Our extended family of 8, age range 8 - 68, occupied two, two bedroom apartments (nos. 221 and 321). The Reception Staff were very friendly and helpful; they spoke very good English and were always available to answer queries. The apartments were spotlessly clean on arrival and were thoroughly cleaned twice during our 7 day stay. In addition during the... More
