Beautiful Majorcan finca right in the middle of Pollenca and Port de Pollenca. It is slightly closer to Pollenca but both are extremely accessible from the villa. The pool area and terrace are absolutely delightful and my boys loved the orchard and picking fresh plums from the trees every day. Inside, there is plenty of space for up to 8 people . The kitchen is a little small for the size of the house but as long as you don't all try and cram in there at once it is perfectly usable and has everything you need. One note is that the dishwasher is tiny but we don't mind washing up so it wasn't an issue.
We had an issue with the hot water on one day we were there and a new boiler was required but this was fixed within a day so we were only without hot water for one day and were kept up to date on what was happening. The maintenance people are great, efficient and very friendly and cleaned the pool twice whilst we were there as well as sorting out the hot water and tending to the garden. Jo also enabled us to have a later check out as our flight wasn't until later that evening which was very much appreciated and very accommodating so thanks again for that :)
Location wise, we found it perfect. It is really set back from the road so you don't hear any traffic, and there are places to walk as well if you don't want to take a car. I would recommend a car so you can go exploring but I wouldn't say it is essential if you like walking. We walked in to Pollenca quite a few times, it is about a 30 minute walk and we walked in to the Port once which was longer (about 45 mins). But there is also Placeta Garden restaurant just by the finca (10 minute walk) which is lovely and has a big kids play area at the front. You can just get a drink or have a meal and it is in lovely grounds with very friendly staff. Then about a 20 minute walk down towards Pollenca, behind Lidl and the Eroski there is a great little place we found called Finca 49 which is a bar and restaurant with a pool and set in lovely grounds with childrens swings, a pool, sun loungers and a terrace for food and drink. The owners are lovely and the food was lovely and a really great drink selection. We were gutted as we only spotted it on the second to last day - a great place for adults to relax, have some lovely food and a swim but also great for kids as there are swings and room for them to run around.
One thing to note is that it is a very lively place for mosquitos. I had some pretty nasty bites but they have always loved me but for some reason they are particularly rife in this area. I would recommend taking a really good repellent with you and lighting candles etc when sitting out at night and covering your arms and legs where possible. This isn't just at the finca, it is just the area, we found the same when out and about too. So if they love you like they love me take some repellent! :)
Pollenca is a stunning old town with a gorgeous square and stunning buildings and scenery and lots of lovely places to eat. Port de Pollenca is bigger with a lovely front and lots of places to eat, some really good restaurants here too. Cala San Vincenc is well worth a visit, stunning little place and only about a 10 minute drive away. Formentor and Soller are also beautiful so it is worth getting a car and exploring if you can. If you have time to kill before your flight and have kids I would recommend the aquarium in Palma, 10 minutes from the airport and a good little afternoon out for the kids.
Thanks for a lovely 2 weeks, we would definitely recommend to anyone - an adult group or a group with kids, as long as you understand they need to be supervised as the pool is not enclosed and there are a few stone staircases etc.
Highly recommend and we would definitely return.
