Our group of 6 adults had a good time at Xavi’s house. It is well equipped (rather small but super comfy beds) and situated in a quiet neighbourhood.
The house was clean but the pictures seem to have been taken a while ago.
The bathrooms were not spotless, but you get decent water pressure and having two bathrooms is very convenient.
Kitchen was also not spotless (had to clean all dishes, glasses and pots before using them) but super well equipped.
Washing machine in the backyard was very convenient; soap and drying rack available.
If you don’t mind sitting close to the road, you’ll find a great bathing-spot 2 minutes from the house with a jumping platform, as well as an ice cream place right across the street (would advise to bring shoes to wear by/in the water as the stone at the shore is rather spiky).
The beach at the other end of town (about 20 min away by foot)/ S’arenal de sa Rapita has nice sand and beautiful blue/ turquoise shallow waters. Expect a lot of people and a yacht club, but if you walk along the beach for about another 20 minutes, you’ll reach a nature reserve where less people are hanging out (no natural shade!).
Last but not least:
Communication with Xavi was very good. He is fast with answering and very friendly.
To make a long story short: Nice house, fair price, good host- would recommend.
Extra info:
1. The house seems to be situated in a rather new part of the town which we personally did not love. The grit like lay-out of the streets and tons of electric lights make you feel safe when walking around at night but give off a rather “sterile” look. We were glad to have a car to reach other/more beautiful parts of the island.
2. We had to deal with some bigger bugs and ants in the house, but this should probably be expected in these climates and bug spray was available.
