Hands down, this is the best stay I’ve ever had anywhere. Miquel and Bel are model hosts and went above and beyond in making me feel like a true Mallorcan. I’d compare it to staying at a five star boutique hotel.
The first day I arrived, Miquel and Bel greeted me with warmth, showed me around (including explaining Spain’s parking rules) and had prepared a typical Mallorcan dish for me with wine.
Throughout my stay, Bel provided recommendations to the best spots on the island, without which I wouldn’t have been able to enjoy my month of adventure in Mallorca.
They made sure that the villa was clean throughout my stay. I highly recommend the additional cleaning service
And our dinner that last night was wonderful—I’ll be coming back and I’m getting ready to purchase property in Mallorca!
As for the accommodations, Es Carrero is gorgeous. Bigger than in the pictures and more impressive—a typical Mallorcan home. It has great wifi for remote work, air conditioning, LAUNDRY, a fully equipped kitchen and modern bathrooms. Sitting on the terrace was an absolute joy! Santa Margalida is one of the most authentic and locally intact places on the island, so it was perfect for me, because I absolutely cannot stand hordes of loud, selfie taking tourists. Great opportunity to practice Spanish.
An awesome side note—Miquel hand crafted so many of what you’ll see in Es Carrerro. He’s an excellent craftsman.
Jump on this booking if you’re lucky enough to find it available. Word has gotten out. I’ll be booking ahead for next year. If July was open I’d be staying there for two months.
