Argos

"We stayed here from the 5th of May for 10 nights for the 2nd time . We arrived late at 21.40 ish but we're still allowed to grab something to eat. I had emailed a week before to request a high floor an iron and also a late checkout on the departure day . We were given the top floor at the front of the hotel I did not pay for the sea veiw which is lovely but does not get any sun from lunchtime ish . Room are adequate and are super clean the staff work extremely hard at this they are so lovely and cheerful. Thank you . We had 1/2 board the food is ok and you will not starve but I think the variety could be better . All drinks have to be paid for with the evening meal . The restaurant /bar/kitchen staff work hard at replenishment etc and again are very friendly, except the older gentlemen with the dark hair we found him extremely rude as has been said in previous comments. You can hire towels 15€pp in cash deposit and can be changed on a daily basis if needed. Safe in room is a key and is 3.80€ a day + a €20 deposit again in cash. You can walk to the city boat in a couple of minutes and its €4 single fair pp to the old town. My 1 gripe is the late checkout out availability I requested as I said in before in an email I then asked again a total of four times to be finally told no they were full they certainly weren't as I could have booked that night on at least 4 sites including there own. It costs 25€ phr my cost would have been 125€ I can't believe in this day and age you would say no to that . I certainly wouldn't. We could use a shower room and they provided us with fresh towels."

"I’ll start with the positives; the hotel is well located, not too far from the airport and Ibiza town but feels like it’s in a quiet part of the island. The room we had was sufficiently large and the seaview balcony was a nice addition. The younger staff in the hotel bar were friendly and welcoming. The breakfast choice was good and constantly well refreshed. The negatives: the older hotel staff were surly and dour, barely able to raise a smile particularly at breakfast and dinner service, and this was right at the start of the season! They could quite happily walk past you without making eye contact in a restaurant that was barely half full. But by far our worst experience was the large group of males who were permitted by the hotel to behave in a misogynistic and homophobic manner throughout the duration of our stay. Having been on the receiving end of some disgusting sexual gestures and comments which we reported to hotel management, we were informed “the rich gentlemen were drunk” as if that was an excuse for their behaviour- and that they’d be spoken to the following day. The hotel then continued to serve alcohol to the drunken obnoxious men for several more hours AFTER freely admitting they were already drunk and a nuisance. We received NO follow up from management and no reassurance that a repeat of this behaviour would not occur again so spent the rest of our stay trying to avoid these German men. Our teenage girls were too afraid to walk around the hotel alone after this experience. But these men were hard to avoid and if they weren’t chanting and singing in the bar, they were jumping in the pool soaking other guests. Will we return to Ibiza? Absolutely! Will we return to Talamanca? Possibly. Will be return to Hotel Argos? Not a chance in hell. Edit: if any German women read this and know that their sons or husbands, fathers or brothers were in a group of 10 or so men aging from late 20s to 60s who stayed here recently, have a serious word with them then about their disgusting behaviour. I can happily show you some videos if you don’t believe me."

"Our flight arrive late into Ibiza. There were at least 30 taxis waiting. The hotel has 24 hour front desk. Extremely helpful and kind staff, especially in the restaurant. Fabulous location. Easy walk to the old town. It takes about 20 minutes. There is a taxi stand right around the corner. The taxi to the airport cost €22. There is also a car hire business immediately behind the hotel next to the small supermarket. The room we had was a corner room looking out to sea. Such a beautiful view! Thank you, Argos! The room was spacious and very comfortable. The hotel is rightly noted for its cleanliness. There is a small gym we used every day. A small indoor pool and jacuzzi is right opposite. We went half board and always found something delicious to eat. There is a buffet in the morning and the evening. We appreciated the variety. If you are vegetarian do ask the chef for vegetables without ham. They tend to put ham in as many things as possible. If you go out of the back of the hotel and walk along the beach there is a boardwalk that takes you all the way to the point. There are lots of lovely cafes and bars along the path. We took a ferry to Formentera and rented bikes one day. It really was wonderful and well worth going. There are fabulous bike trails with an incredible amount of birds to observe. Some things that would make the hotel even better would be to have better storage in the room. If they put a shelf in the bathroom and a mirror in the main bedroom this would also be helpful. We loved our stay and would not hesitate to return."
