This 400-year-old "finca" is the perfect place to spend a quiet few days on beautiful Mallorca. The property is gorgeous: our room was lovely and the house itself is full of relaxing nooks for reading or lounging by the pool. The dusty village of Biniamar is pretty and quiet (each morning I was awoken by church bells and cockerels) and ideally located for exploring both ends of the island (with a car, of course).

Lucia and Tomeu were charming hosts and greeted us as if we were old friends. They were helpful and kind and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed during our stay. My parents were staying at their own house nearby and they even let them visit and enjoy the pool before catching their flight. I could have spent much longer here and hope to return some day. Until then I will remember the experience very fondly.
