An adorable, authentic and stunning renovation of an historic townhouse in Pollenca.
Just as described in the particulars on Air BnB. Spotlessly clean with a wide variety of modern amenities.
My partner and I stayed here for the last week in September and we couldn't have chosen better. Although we had a rental car to explore other areas of the island, the fact that Dormus Lleo is so close to the centre of Pollenca was a real bonus and meandering down from the house through the streets to get freshly baked croissants and a newspaper became a morning ritual, as did meandering down to eat wonderful dinners in the evenings.
Margarita is an excellent host, even showing us in her own car the way to access the house through the complex system of one way streets in the old town and also how to reverse the car into the garage, awkward to begin with but with a weeks practice...not too bad at all !!!
Although there were only two of us staying, the house has plenty of space both inside and out should you be booking for more guests. Our favourite areas were the sun terrace with plunge pool. We enjoyed many a sundowner looking out from here over the surrounding mountains and countryside, even better views from the solarium deck on the roof with views extending to Cala San Vincente, Puerto Pollenca and Alcudia.
Nice to Know.....If your stay is going to be on a self catering basis and you have a rental car, an excellent Lidl supermarket is barely 5 minutes away.
If you don't have a car it's 6 euros by taxi from the taxi rank in the town.
Nice Touch.... Margarita left a good variety of local and fresh groceries as a welcome for our arrival.
Good to Know...This gorgeous house is on three levels, four if you count the basement garage. We don't think it would be suitable for the elderly and anyone not good on their feet. We also think it would be hazardous for those with small children too...the gorgeous Mallorcan marble floors and staircases could prove quite dangerous.
Wonderful, wonderful trip....cant wait to get back to beautiful Pollenca !!
Thank you, Margarita
