If you want somewhere close to nature with enough room and good outdoor facilities for a family with kids or a bigger circle of friends this is a perfect place!

We spent a beautiful week at Catalina´s Chalet and everything was as gorgeous as you can have it at the End of March: sunny days, temperatures around 24 degrees Celsius (the chillier evenings we spent in front of the little but powerful fire place that we fired with driftwood from the beach), the pool, lots of space and sea view open air breakfast sessions.

We were greeted very warmly by Catalina, her instructions were compact and easy to follow, the local welcome wine delicious. Initial problems with the dishwasher we solved easily following text message instructions by Catalina and Miguel.

Although most of the holiday homes were still unoccupied, the two restaurants in the village were already open. So we could enjoy early morning silence and the company of day trip tourists and racing cyclists.

Yes, you have to cope with a steep mountain road (sixty one serpentines, mostly hairpin curves) but as Catalina predicted, our daughter´s usually very heavy car sickness disappeared after the second day. So it only takes a while to get somewhere and a brave driver.

Thanks to the comments from previous guests we brought most of our food and stuff at arrival, having shopped on our way at the first supermarket next to Palma airport. However, we added fresh produce at Esporles Farmers Market (on Saturdays) - it is a short trip and you can easily spent half a day at the villlages´ Plaza, drinking coffee and watching the kids play on the little playground.

The walking-tour to Banyalbufar is not to be missed: Great scenery and a child-friendly trail!

Thank´s very much, Catalina!
