We were greeted by their lovely friend Colette who was brilliant, very friendly, gave us the grand tour and then didn't overstay, letting us get on with winding down after a long journey and getting something to eat. Although we never met Jonathon, he replied extremely promptly and helpfully to a few queries I text messaged him during our stay. Jonathan was also brilliant from our first tentative online enquiries 6 months ago. We had never used AirBnB and I fear that poor Jonathan was inundated with questions from us! But it was never too much trouble and he reassured us to ask as many questions as we needed to. For this, we were very grateful. Wonderful, faultess host!
The property itself was spotless and exactly as described. Very comfortable in every room with the back court area being perfect for coffee in the morning sun, and the living room balcony perfect for drinks in the afternoon sun! Just lovely.
Wonderful restaurants a stone's throw from the property, we tried them all we are pretty sure! Great food and exceptional wines.
Fabulous cafes for coffee, snacks, beers. Staff always charming and helpful.
Very convenient supermarkets, cute boutiques and best yet, the beautiful beaches virtually at your doorstop. The beaches have a great atmosphere and are very clean.
We really felt that the left hand side of the bay (where Jonathan and Poli's property is situated) was superior to the far right hand side of the beach. Right hand side has several hotels and therefore a different vibe. Whereas the left side feels more residential and comfortable and like a home from home. But Port de Soller is of course brilliant in its entirety though, don't get me wrong!!
Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Owl's House and the hosts.
A truly fantastic and much needed 10 days in the sun for us.
So, get booking people :)
