This was our first ever Airbnb experience. We also have never lived in a shared apartment before, so our trip to Menorca was all about new discoveries.
Overall: Jose and his wife speak fluent English and were happy to help with anything we needed. The ‘sharing’ part didn’t bother us at all. Most of the time we were leaving very early in the morning when everyone was asleep, and coming back when everyone was still out. Luckily, never had to wait for the free bathroom or a kitchen hob. All the guests were very respectful to each other. However, it seemed like majority of guests were speaking Spanish (which is of course expected), so dinner gatherings with Jose, his wife, sons and all the guests did seem a bit awkward for us, and we never joined them for dinner.
House: is very clean and looked after. There are 5 bedrooms and three bathrooms. Despite sharing the kitchen and bathrooms with other people, it was always clean and easy to access. It can get very hot in the house, if you are coming peak season, be aware - there is no air conditioning and no fans.
Location: is absolutely perfect to quickly commute to the best beaches on the island, you can’t think of a better place to be. Conveniently close to Ciutadella as well.
Facilities: you can take out the fridge boxes, diving equipment or sun umbrellas for free. There is a swimming pool on the premises, which we didn’t get to use, but it did look very clean and looked after. Jose keeps some turtles by the pool as well, who really like watermelons! :D
Tip: request Son Saura room if you get a choice, as you get easy access to the balcony, where you can witness a beautiful sunset and shores of Mallorca.
