I spent a sublime week at Miramar I with my three young adult children. The house was absolutely perfect for us.
The location is unbeatable, with beautiful, sweeping views across Cala Galdana and an easy walk to its beach, as well as easy walking access to the surrounding beaches, which are a short (ish) hike away. This plus shouldn’t be understated, especially in August when beach parking is a nightmare.
The location also afforded my (older) kids some autonomy as we only rented one car. They were able to walk to the beach or into town to do things on their own. This to me is also a huge plus.
The view is so spectacular, that just being at “home” reinforces the vacation-effect. When you look outside you always see the transparent, turquoise / emerald water. There is no lovelier sight!
We enjoyed eating on the shaded patio, and using the charcoal grill at night to make the most of the sultry, night air. We didn’t even mind the evening music from the nearby hotel, and in fact were impressed with and enjoyed the singers each night. The music is soft and stops at 23:00 sharp.
The pool is fantastic and we enjoyed plunging into it after a day of hiking and beaching.
The interior of the house is what I’d expect at a villa rental in Spain (and I’ve stayed at many); a little dated but totally functional. You’re not coming to Menorca for furnishings so who cares? The house is a great value given its features and locations. If it’s available, staying here is a no-brainer.
Most of all, Joan was an excellent host. He was kind, helpful, responsive and informative.
