This is a great apartment to rent. We were there for a month, and really didn't want to leave! Tony lives upstairs, so was always on hand, if needed. There were beach things to borrow, smart TV, and the washing machine's 14 minute quick wash was brilliant!
The 60-odd steps up to the apartment kept us fit - as did the many hills in the area (Not an area for the less-able....everywhere is on a hill)
The location, for us, was excellent:-
A small local beach 10 minutes walk away and the enormous Portals Nous beach a 20 minute walk away. The sun stays on the big beach far later in the day (Beware costs of the little cafe on that beach - it's really expensive)
2 supermarkets in easy walking distance. Eroski - bit further away - is a bigger shop, but I found that the smaller Cidon (sp?) shop in the high street was better value overall.
I'm a charity shop fan, and found 2 good charity shops in the next town. Only open in the mornings, I think. Not sure what the town was called, but a half hour decent paced walk, after turning right out of the villa.
Moo Moo's steak restaurant (amazing burgers) and La Opera pizza restaurant were superb, and not too expensive.
Chamelli's coffee shop, in the high street, is excellent. Very good breakfasts, and reasonable prices.
There's a taxi-rank opposite Chamelli's, where there always seemed to be available cars.
We only took one bus ride - the 108 into Palma centre. The bus stop is 1 minute walk from the villa, and stops at the main bus station in Palma...you really can't go wrong.
We were plagued by mosquitoes - who seem to thrive on repellant - but I guess that was because of the heat.
We stayed from 11th September to 9th October, and only had rain on 3 days. Even when it did rain, there were still periods of hot sun on the same day - so a great time to visit.
All in all - a great, great stay
