The house is exactly as described and check in was really easy. Marina’s communication couldn’t be better, before, during and even after our stay. We felt instantly relaxed and the welcome touches made us feel at home quickly. The outside space is amazing! Plenty of sun and shade and the pool was clean and we used it all the time. We were a group of 6 and there was plenty of space for everyone. The house was spotlessly clean and had everything you need for a home from home stay.
The supermarket is under a 10 minute walk away and sold all basic food and drinks as well as freshly baked croissants and bread in the morning. There were 2 restaurants just next to it and we ate in both. 5 Oceanos had the better food, but service wasn’t that good. Nura had great service, the food was ok. We also ate at the bodega del sol on the way into Alcudia. This was our favourite place! Amazing vegetable paella and the cheapest sangria!! There was another restaurant in Bonaire that served white sangria, but we didn’t eat there!
The cove on the front was great for swimming, but beware of the sea urchins and maybe invest in water shoes! We walked to the beach (playa de Sant pere) which was stunning! Crystal clear, warm, shallow water and once you get deep enough, great for swimming.
We walked into Alcudia, it takes about 35minutes and enjoyed the market days. There are bigger supermarkets here, such as Lidl and mercadona. We rented a car for a few days and found this easier to get to Palma and Pollenca. We also did the early morning dolphin watching trip, we’ll worth the early start to see dolphins in the wild. There’s plenty of free parking in Alcudia too!
All in all we had an amazing holiday and spent a few days just at the villa and relaxing. It was so good, we didn’t feel the need to go anywhere! There was also a table tennis table and bbq round by the washing machine. A beautiful villa in a beautiful part of Mallorca!
Thank you, Marina, you were an excellent host and it was lovely to meet you and we look forward to returning one day x
