We loved the town and the house location and views were fantastic. From our prior experience in Mallorca, the pricing seemed high when considering some of the property drawbacks, like no air conditioning throughout and some of the aged and tired elements of the property. This was our first visit to this part of Mallorca. We have stayed a couple times in Deia. We would return to this town again.
From a value point of view, pricing seemed high for the issues that exist in the home. I would not say we were disappointed, but we would not return to this property in the future. My wife and I have owned and own high end rental properties in the gulf of Florida, and we know how difficult it is to maintain consistency, but we are also relatively picky. So some of our negative response may not bother others.
A few points for new guests:
The parking location requires a bit of a haul of luggage to the house. We are in good shape so not problem for us, but an older less fit renter would be challenged without help. This was not clear.
The pool level was beautiful and with un matched views. There is no lack of awesome scenery for this property. A delight!
Supplies like toilet paper, dish washing soap, paper towels, and bath products were very limited. Also, for our group size (4 ppl) overhang was fine, but there were only 5 wine glasses so a larger group may need to use a champagne glass for red wine, as an example.
Finally, note that there is a $2 Euro/day tourist fee per guest that needs to be paid in cash. I'expect this charge to be through Airbnb, bit it was not collected and I do not recall it being disclosed, but it may have so make sure you bring some Euro's. Martin will charge this at check in.
All in all, we enjoyed our stay and loved the location of this property. From looking at other homes in town, many seem in better and updated shape so the property would benefit from a bit of updating and fixing rental wear and tear.
