Villa Le Blanc boasts an idyllic natural setting on Santo Tomas Beach on the Migjorn coast, halfway between Mahón and Ciutadella. An ideal seaside location for discovering all the cultural and natural attractions of Menorca (declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1993).

Reopened in 2022 after a complete renovation, the property combines simple and contemporary design in a palette of whites and blues. The hotel provides 159 rooms and plenty of public spaces. The Penthouse Suite, the Swim-Up Master Suite and Presidential Suite offer the widest range of luxury amenities, as well as sea views, which can be enjoyed from their private balconies and pools.

S’Amarador replicates the cuisine of the iconic mother restaurant in Ciutadella. The restaurant preserves and adapts all the traditions of the ancient fishermen's taverns that used to be located throughout the port area in olden times.

In addition to S’Amarador, the hotel offers authentic Menorcan essence in SAÓ, based on Mediterranean cheeses, wines from the islands and products from the land, reflecting the true Menorca and it`s ingredients.

Perfect for all day dining and bites by the pool, Nivi offers a nice selection of Mediterranean grilled dishes and paellas.
