Fast facts and map for the Argos Hotel, Talamanca

My third visit to the Argos was mid November of this year and previously I stayed in March and May. Our May visit was very much more comfortable than in March as the weather was exceedingly good, all the facilities the hotel had to offer were available and the proximity of the beach really came into its own. This visit in November was similar to my March experience and was just as pleasant with one exception. The weather in November was quite warm by UK standards but the hotel had closed down the air conditioning system. The room was too warm at night for me (personal preference) and opening the window did little to cool it down due to outside temperatures. I would have liked the air conditioning to be available during this visit though I understand that to Ibiza folk the outside temperature was probably considered decidedly cool. I was wearing shorts - the Ibithencans were walking around swathed in overcoats!
