A very clean and spacious, yet cozy home for a family with children. It is walking distance to a restaurant that is open all year, Latino, and one of the local markets, Mercadona. Also a 3 blocks walking distance from the beach front. We drove to the old walled city of Alcudia, 20 minutes North, and 30 minutes in the opposite direction is the city of Capdepera .
The home was perfect for our family of four ( 8mo old and 2 yo). It was more than enough space. The hosts provided more than necessary. A thoughtful touch of local food and drinks which was not expected, but we graciously accepted. Three neatly prepared bedrooms. Two with two twin beds for older children or other adults to bed down. A master bedroom with one queen size-ish(?)bed. Closet space in all bedrooms. Heating/cooling units in each room with individual remotes for each. The heaters were very useful during our stay! Two bathrooms. A nice kitchen fully stocked with all cooking necessities. A laundry machine and dish washer for our use. A garage like space used for gatherings, barbecues or just hang out. A second floor above the garage with a play/entertainment room more for older children, and a outdoor patio that overlooks some of the homes. The ocean is not easily visible, but nevertheless a nice little area to sit and hang out or grill. Lastly, the hosts provided a pack-n-play for our little one and there were a few things our 2 yo could play with.
We arrived during the off season, December 16-20, 2019. It was a nice little get away from our cold German Village. Weather was a mild 60-65F and slightly cloudy, with a few sprinkly precipitous days (felt like home, California Coast), nothing to stop us from going out and exploring. Most of the restaurants and stores were closed along the beach front and undergoing renovation. I can only imagine what its like during the busy season. With kids, we personally prefer the quiet, low key, off season feel.
Alcudia was a little busier with some historical sites to see and venture through, with a local farmer's market near the center. Port d'Alcudia was a 10 minute drive away. Nice beachfront to walk and explore. Again, pretty dead as it was the off season. It was still nice to walk along the sandy beach and expose our 2yo to the ocean and the boats moored to the docks.
In the other direction, Capdepera, a beach town with a nearby mountainous terrain where a lighthouse can be driven to. Beautiful natural scenery in all directions with the town in the distance. A castle is nearby, 10 minutes drive inland. Check the hours for off season and busy season. The hours are different and we didn't make it into the castle, but we walked some of the perimeter.
Another stop we made was the Rancho Grande Park, 15 minuntes away from the home. Great for the kids! As with all else, the place was bare of any customers, but it featured all that was advertised. We walked the grounds, saw all the tropical animals and sat for a nice grilled meat dinner.
Overall, great trip to Majorca, Spain. Made successful by a cozy home in Ca'n Picafort. Thank you to Miquel and his wife for a wonderful place to relax and recuperate from each day.
