We returned home today from Can Serena and had the best holiday and cannot rate the villa and Antoni’s hosting highly enough. The villa is beautiful and has everything you need to stay entertained, even when hit with thunder and lightening for a couple of days. We had 3 generations staying at the villa and enjoyed swimming in the pool, sunbathing in the beautiful garden, an amazing outdoor barbecue and playing pool and cards or reading some of the books on offer when the weather took a temporary turn for the worse. The villa itself is great but the gardens and outdoor area surpassed all our expectations and provided areas to sunbathe, dine out, chill with a book and a wine, BBQ, jacuzzi or sauna. The grounds, plants and flowers are beautiful. There was lots of advice on where to go and things to do in the local area and we enjoyed walks along the prom in the morning to Marabans for coffee and a croissant and some lovely meals in local restaurants including Don Denis, El Gaucho and Nusa Dua on the sea front and the more traditional and local cuisine in Sa Ximada on Carretera Arta-Alcudia.
The villa is in a beautiful location and handy for everything in town while having peace and privacy. My dad has mobility issues and Antoni very kindly arranged for a wheelchair which was an absolute lifeline and made it possible for my dad to see all of the town and enjoy the beautiful promenade, beach and local shops and restaurants. There is also a great supermarket in the next street with everything you need to eat in.
My one piece of advice if you travel at this time of year is to come prepared for mosquitoes as the villa is positioned at the edge of a wonderful nature reserve and parkland. It certainly would not put us off going back but in future we would be better prepared to minimise or deal with the bites.
Antoni was on hand to give advice when needed and was a perfect host. We had a brilliant holiday and I would love to return some time soon.
