This is a beautiful property, and the location surrounded by the mountains is stunning! The pool is the perfect size for lap swimming, in the sun for most of the day, and surrounded by orange and lemon trees and fragrant lavender.
The house itself has been lovingly restored, and the kitchen is brand new and well equipped. We loved the mix of traditional and contemporary throughout the house.
It’s a short walk into Soller and there are lots of great restaurants and bars, delis and bakeries, and the town is relaxed and friendly. We travelled from Palma to Soller on the vintage train and would recommend it rather than driving, the scenery is breathtaking.and you can get round the area easily without a car. The tram runs frequently to Port de Soller, and there are walks from the house to nearby villages Fournalutx and Biniaraix.
The road outside the house can be quite busy with no pavement for a short part of the walk,so at night we found a slightly longer route in and out of town that felt safer. There is some noise from the traffic in the house but it didn’t bother us.
It’s worth noting that if the other side of the house is occupied you will probably hear the guests as the rooms are echoey due to the connecting doors and high ceilings, and there is a further apartment behind the house which also has a connecting door. Both were in use when we were there, but the other guests didn’t disturb us once we’d got used to everyone moving around.
Also there are a lot of stairs so it won’t suit those with limited mobility.
Jorge was quick to respond to our questions, though wasn’t around for our stay, so we made our check in and leaving arrangements with Oana, who was very friendly and helpful.
