If you are looking for a quiet place with easy access to restaurants, beaches, and hiking, this will be perfect. Walkable to the beautiful Cala Morlanda and Caló d'en Rafalino (my favorite for swimming), as well as many restaurants and bars in S'Illot. When not taking advantage of the area, you will find a clean, quiet place to recharge and a shady courtyard that's perfect for sipping local wine and snacking on cheese / jamon.
Xisca is a terrific host as well. 5 star communicator. Before arriving, she sent detailed instructions for check-in and a list of recommendations for restaurants, markets, hiking trails, and beaches nearby. We were wise to take many of them.
A quick note about our experience:
- Cala Romantica is a 5-10 minute drive and our favorite beach for reading / relaxing in the sun.
- Caló d'en Rafalino is a secluded / rocky beach with excellent swimming. It's a tiny little cove where rocks give way to sand about 10 meters from the shore. If you're daring enough, there are places to jump into the water from higher up.
- The super market in Porto Christo has a nice selection of Majorcan wines.
- Restaurante Andreu Genestra was a gastronomic experience. If you can get a reservation, this was a highlight of the week. (This is on Xisca's list).
Overall, a perfect experience. Many thanks to our host!
