This is our second visit to Menorca. We did the same thing last year but the beginning of July was much warmer with less clouds. Last year we stayed not so far from this place so we knew the area well enough already and that this villa was in a great location for relaxation, quiet and lovely beaches.
The beach is around 10 minutes walk but the walk up can be tiring in the heat so for someone who isn't physically able it's not an easy walk that long hill or steps.
There's a shop around 5 minutes walk that does lovely croissants and bread in the morning as well as other essentials. The little town is the same amount of time as getting to the beach. There's also a few water parks and a zoo that are around 30 min away by car that are great for kids.
As for the villa, it's really nice and the best part is having a private pool which we didn't last year. The inside of the house isn't very big but it's good enough for 6 guests specially with the large area outside with the pool. There are lots of decks as well for sun tanning. There are two bathrooms, one inside the house and the other outside the house so not ideal during night but what are the chances of fighting for the loo that late anyway? There are also two cute tortoise hanging around the garden :)
There's enough things to use for cooking in the kitchen and to wash clothes as well for those who want self catering.
My only cons about the house is that only one room has an AC and it gets uncomfortably hot at night time so found it hard to sleep. I'd have been happy with a fan at least. Something worth thinking about for future guests specially with hotter weather on its way there soon.
Parking is free outside and there's plenty of it so that is not an issue at all.
The host is lovely, very friendly and happy go lucky. Some people complained about lack of privacy as he lives above in the upper floor but he didn't bother us much and it really isn't such a big deal unless you're super private and don't want no one in your space. He cleans the pool and waters plants every morning very early and sometimes passes through to go to his flat or out! So not a big issue for us but maybe for someone who wants complete privacy.
We had a great holiday and had a great time in this little villa, if you're a massive fan of swimming pools sun tanning/relaxing then this place is for you! but if you are looking for a lively town with lots to do then this is not the island or part of the island for you.
