Four blissful weeks in our own, private paradise! We stayed at this beutiful, secluded finca with our son of 7 months, and while we were there had several friends and family members come over to visit. They all loved it too!
The finca is spaceous, well equipped and cozy, and it really lies smack in the middle of nowhere (which is exactly what we wanted). I was a little worried about the lack of air conditioning, but closing the windows and doors during the warm hours of the day, and opening them up to air out and cool down the house at night, really worked. We didn't miss air con for a second. The two bedrooms in the house are of similar size, with one having double doors facing the terrace. The bed in this room was a little too firm for our taste, but the wider, softer bed in the other bedroom was great. There are big, mirrored wardrobes in both bedrooms with lots of space for bags and clothes. The bathroom has a bathtub and shower combo with great water pressure, a big mirror and plenty of cabinet space. The living room has two leather sofas, which, though soft and comfortable, were a little sticky in the heat. That didn't mater much though, as we spent most of our time outside. There is a TV and small dining table and chairs, all left mostly unused by us. This finca is all about the terrace, garden and pool (getting back to that in a minute). The kitchen has absolutely everything you could want or need for cooking and eating (except maybe a really sharp kitchen knife), including an awesome gas stove. Still, we cooked almost all our meals on the little charcoal barbeque on the terrace. The terrace also sports two sitting groups and has much needed shade during all hours of the day. Below is the pool and garden, both really lovely. Lots of well-kept succulents, cacti, herbs and fruit trees give a real authentic and country style feel, and we loved picking fresh herbs for our meals. The pool is hands down the best feature of all, with clean water, great size and perfect temperature. It is great for both doing lengths and simply splashing around and cooling down. In short, we did not want to leave the house, and when we did go on excursions (there are loads to be mande in the area), we were so relieved to get pace to the peace and tranquility of the house and garden.
Peter and Charlotte are wonderful, friendly and caring hosts, and they saw to our every need. They also gave us lots of great tips for things to see, do and eat in the area. We can not praise them enough, and we would reccommend their place to anyone who are looking for a peaceful getaway in sunny Mallorca. <3
