Royal Son Bou Family Club

A high-quality hotel, perfectly suited for children (which is rare) and a beautiful family vacation. Everything is in place for a relaxing vacation. The activities are well thought out for both kids and adults, the facilities are suitable, and the professional staff are always smiling and energetic. A real treat.

We are just back from a fabulous five night stay at the Royal Son Bou. We took our seven year old granddaughter who had the most amazing time. This was our second visit and I have no hesitation in recommending the Son Bou to anyone travelling with children. Our accommodation was spotlessly clean and housekeeping is carried out daily to a very high standard. We were all inclusive and the food was excellent. There is a choice of two restaurants. They can both be very busy but at no time did I ever see anyone queuing for a table. There are so many dishes to choose from with lots of healthy options available if you’re on a restricted diet. There are also two supermarkets opposite the hotel for anyone on half board. One in particular is very well stocked and the prices seem very reasonable. The pools are fabulous, our granddaughter loved them! Lots of pool activities at various times if you’re partial to pool aerobics or volley ball. The second pool is quieter, more shallow and suited to young children ….. though our seven year old loved the galleon and the slides! The kids club has had a refurb since last year. There are lots of supervised activities for children but now there is also a fantastic splash park. Our granddaughter was there every day, she loved it! Who knew getting drenched could be such fun! It’s a short walk to the beach. The sand has rocks and the waves can be fierce but again, our granddaughter loved it. There’s a tunnel access directly from the hotel so no roads to cross. All in all, this was a fabulous stay. The one slight negative was a large hotel over the road which plays incredibly loud music until 10.30pm each evening. If your accommodation has a sea view, you will notice it the most. It’s probably not ideal if you have a baby, but otherwise, not a deal breaker. I’ve no doubt there are options in quieter areas if you contact the hotel directly. And last but not least, I’d like to give a big shout out to all the staff at this hotel. Not once did we encounter anyone who didn’t acknowledge us. Most spoke excellent English and were incredibly polite, helpful and efficient. Without a doubt, they are the jewel in Son Bou’s Crown! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Fantastic hotel for families. Lovely spacious room, really appreciated having a fridge. Large bathroom. We had a sea view which was lovely. The pool was nice and warm in late June. It's a short walk to the beach. The sea was also lovely and warm for swimming But, the main reason that I booked was the food and it did not disappoint. Lots of choice. My son who is less adventurous was happy with the pizza and Bolognese but loved trying all the different deserts. The supermarkets near by were not so expensive as I thought they might be and son we used them for lunch as we were half board. The shop assistant in the hotel was very friendly and will inflate any Floatie you want to buy. Hotel shop price very good. Very happy overall.
