Any info about S’algar, Menorca?

We've booked a week in a villa in early July. 4 adults. Not planning on hiring a car and just mostly interested in the pool, barbecuing, eating/drinking in local restaurants - not looking for lively nightlife! - and trips/excursions.

I've read the recent threads on here about Menorca and no-one has mentioned S’algar, so looking for more of an idea as to what it's like.

Recommendations for trips, specific places to visit (without a car) would be very welcome.

TIA.

I went multiple times as a child, we used to walk along the coastal path to Cala Alcaufar to get to the beach most days. It still looks like it remains a quiet place with not so many restaurants, based only on a quick scan of Google maps. You can get the bus to Mahon, seems to run every hour or sometimes every 2 hours. My mum liked Cuitadella, you'd need to change bus in Mahon to get there.

When we were there a few years ago, it was a very quiet resort. One restaurant and one local shop. It's not everyone's cup of tea given how quiet the resort is in general, but we loved it.

The buses are great and we used them a fair few times.

There isn't a beach, though as pp said the coastal walk is lovely.

Enjoy!
