Hotel Spa Sagitario Playa is a three-pearl hotel with low rates in the peaceful area of Cala Blanca, west of Minorca Island. The hotel is located a four-minute walk to the beach and near a handful of bars and restaurants. Rooms follow a typical chain hotel theme with minimal decor and generic colors, though they are quite spacious. Each comes with a large balcony, air-conditioning, and free Wi-Fi. All room rates include the free buffet breakfast; some rates include a buffet dinner as well. The swimming pool has a shallow kids' section, and there are surrounding lounges and parasols. There's a fitness center, tennis court, and spa with steam room, sauna, and indoor swimming pool -- though all come at an additional fee. Another good choice is Apartamentos Blancala, with competitive rates and ocean views.

The three-and-a-half-pearl Globales Mediterrani is an all-inclusive chain hotel set in Minorca's small and low-key resort of Cala Blanca. Visitors expecting local nightlife or sweeping sandy beaches will be disappointed, though the small local cove is pretty. An update in 2016 gave most of the property a contemporary polish, including the 192 guest rooms which also feature modern amenities such as large flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi. The pool could be bigger and it can feel a little crowded at times, and there's no supervised activities for the kids. Food and drink is always available throughout the day and quality, if not variety, is decent enough. Those after spa facilities, however, should consider the nearby Hotel Spa Sagitario Playa, which is also good value while the Globales Club Almirante Farragut Hotel offers free kids' clubs.
