Lovely bright modern hotel in stunning setting overlooking a beautiful bay. We had a fab four days in this hotel couldn’t fault it. The staff were so lovely the hotel was very tastefully decorated and comfortable and the breakfast was delicious. We were upgraded to a seafront room with a glass balcony overlooking the beach and bay it was an added bonus waking up with that view every day. The area has some lovely restaurants within walking distance so easy to find places to eat if not full board. Highly recommend this place for a total rest. The only thing to be aware of is it is is not great for people who struggle with walking as the beach is down steps/slope with no lift.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Nice location. Breakfast was fantastic. Too many extra charges… $22 E for parking, $23.60 for a lounge chair on the beach, and the pool on the website is a private club that you have to pay extra to enter.
Fantastic location with an awesome service Will always stay at Meliá Cala Galdana. The staff are fantastic with Tomas Head of Customer Experience a real gentleman . Nothing is too much trouble. Would recommend upgrading to The Level every time to make your stay unforgettable! Thank you to all the staff at Meliá Cala Galdana you are all superb 😃
The view from this hotel is otherworldly - with direct access to a spectacular beach (calm, shallow water, soft sand. The amenities and style of the hotel are nice and the rooms comfortable. It’s a resort hotel - not a boutique hotel - so the service, while plentiful, is also a bit impersonal. I’d recommend staying here for the location alone.
Great location with excellent clean rooms with nice decks and views. Gym was OK....and tough to park a car there on the street....limited parking...but otherwise a great hotel. LEVEL package was great with good breakfast everyday included and a nice infinity pool with no kids so great for couples. Highly recommend this resort for a relaxing few days of vacation!

Far too expensive
This was a very expensive stay at what was described as a luxury hotel in a junior suite. It failed to meet our expectations. The room was a huge disappointment. The layout was poor, there were no views from the sofa or bed. Frankly the room was no more than a poor standard room in a standard hotel. The Level is a good concept but again it fell well short of the luxury standard advertised and expected. One restaurant closed. Remaining restaurant over-priced and little choice.
We enjoyed 4 nights at the Melia Cala Galdana early April. Had 2 fantastic weather days and 2 very windy, cooler days. It’s a perfect central spot to enjoy all of Menorca from. Beautiful Hotel, great food, beautiful bay/beach. Staff were so helpful. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Everything was perfect. We stayed in one of the Junior Suites for 4 nights. Good size, lovely views just in front of Cala Galdana, and all the amenities we needed. The Level Lounge was a great addition to our stay; complimentary drinks and tapas until 6pm everyday, with soft drinks and coffee 24 hours.
Cape Nao has a good menu for dinner. The blind paella is delicious and the wine menu very good.
Cape Nao Beach Club is okay; no toilets, no smoking/vaping allowed, no music, no atmosphere.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The food was quite lukewarm which was a problem as we went half board.
The lifts need servicing (very cranky/ noisy)
Fantastic location, lovely hotel, lovely staff. I have only put the 2 issues I had in this review to help the hotel have some constructive feedback.

FORME IT IS FAR FROM BEING A 5 STAR HOTEL, THE ROOM IS VERY SMALL, THE A/C DOES NOT WORK WELL. FOOD IS AVERAGE AND THE HOTEL LACKS OF PERSONALITY IN MY OPINION.
Really lovely hotel. Bedroom very clean and bright. We had a premium room with seaview and the seaview is perfect! The breakfasts were probably the best we have ever had... so much choice, continually replenished so we didn't miss out on anything. Staff very efficient at cleaing away the tables and laying for new guests so never a queue for breakfast. We ate in both restaurants and couldn't fault the food. The only thing we didn't like very much (maybe because we are old!) was having to use the QR code to get any information - info on the hotel, info on the cost of the mini-bar etc. etc. The restaurants relented and gave us proper menus!
All in all we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend.
Overall I would recommend.
Positives: (1) Location- the beach is absolutely perfect. Warm and clear water with no waves. Hotel is literally at the beach. (2) Room is clean. (3) There are 3 restaurants for dinner inside the hotel so plenty of options to choose from.
Negatives: (1) Room is VERY small. We could barely move around without bumping into the luggage. (2) The kids bed (extra bed) is extremely uncomfortable and not what you expect from a 5* hotel. (3) Staff was a hit and miss. Some were friendly but some others were clearly unhappy to be there. (4) Food room service is a joke. They told us it is available 24 hours but when we called they said they had run out of food!! There was absolutely nothing we could order apart from a glass of milk. (5) Swimming pool is nice but very small for a hotel that size. The infinity swimming pool is only available for adults and you need to pay extra to be in that area. They have some sort of VIP club. That sets the tone that the hotel is somewhat kids friendly but not completely. (6) As other reviewers have said, you need to pay for chaise longue at the beach. Not great. They charge € 20 a day. (7) Parking is paid for and very expensive. €35 a day. (8) There is no air conditioning on the buffet restaurant so be ready to have breakfast sweating every morning.
