We had a wonderful stay at Pilar's place. The house is very cosy with some nice old furniture and has everything you need, from a cute little terrace, a modern stove and kitchen supply to comfortable deckchairs. Sant Joan is a small authentic village in the heart of the island, very calm, with a few stores, bakeries, restaurants, and bars. If you don't have a car, you can still explore the region by bus and there are some nice places nearby for excursions by foot. Since the people in the village don't speak much English is helpful if you know some words in Spanish or Catalan. But even if you don't you are treated kindly by everyone. Especially Pilar and her mother; they helped us understanding the bus system, gave us a lot of tips for excursions and made some phone calls for us when we needed help. Pilar's mother is a kind and amiable lady, she provided us with oranges, pillows, and everything we needed, so we felt as if the house was our home.
