This was our first trip through airbnb and suffice to say that we won't be using travel agencies anymore! :)

Margalida is very welcoming and kind person. The flat was clean, spacious and well prepared for guests. All amenities and 2 bathrooms made the stay comfortable for all 4 of us.

The nearby street, and flat itself look much better than pictures and google street view would suggest.

Sandy beach is just 2 blocks away, grocery shop across the street, beautiful old city center and main bus hub about 2km walk. All in "real living" district, away from pesky tourists and ugly hotels. We couldn't think of better place to stay, it was perfect!

Our general advices:

- Carrefour>Mercadona>Eroski>BP
- best sangria is Don Simon, and Cruz Garcia "Real Sangria"
- all beers suck, pick the cheapest
- stock up for sunday, whole town is dead on sundays
- have exact change for the bus, or you might not get in
- most kebabs have free WiFi
- try olives with anchovies from Mercadona
- buses are great and cheap way to travel all around Mallorca
- Cap de Formentor with lighthouse is 11km away from the last bus stop. You can walk there, but due to heavy traffic I wouldn't recommend taking kids. If you plan to walk there, catch the very first bus to alcudia and from there to formentor, you will need every bit of time there, it's beautiful.
- traffic lights are just "guidance"
- pack earplugs, spaniards can be very loud
- you won't see all the Mallorca got to offer in just 2 weeks
- seek wild or secluded beaches

Overall - highly recommended!
