Overall we had a great stay in Cala Galdana and would recommend it for families. We were travelling as a family (3 adults and 2 children under 2).
Location - 10 min walk to Cala Galdana but lots of steep/uneven steps (15 mins if you go longer route with buggy to avoid steps), 20 min walk to Cala Mitjana. 60 mins to Cala Macarelleta. On street parking outside the property - we didn’t have any issues but road did get busy during the day with beach goers. 35 min drive from Mahon airport.
Local shop - freshly made croissants and baguettes from 8/8.30am. Lots of essential items available, including drinking water (can’t drink tap water).
Quiet area - more residential side of Cala Galdana. We were very pleased about this as we travelled with 2 small children - we could walk round to the main area with restaurants but weren’t disturbed by evening entertainment etc.
Bathrooms - Property has 2 shower rooms and washing machine with detergent etc.
Well equipped property - David provided us with a highchair and comfortable travel cot which was very helpful. Also he also provides towels for house, pool and beach. There is a dishwasher, Tupperware, parasol, pool floats… lots of things that are very helpful to have.
David’s recommendations were great including Mercadona supermarket near Ciutadella and places to park. He is very knowledgeable.
David was flexible and accommodating on our check out time - particularly helpful with us having a little one who needed a nap before flying home!
Worth noting for hotter times of year that there is only AC in main bedroom and living area. Other bedrooms have fans but got quite hot during our stay.
We spent most of the time at the various local beaches or by the pool but had a nice trip to Ciutadella which was 20 min drive away.
