We had a wonderful time staying at Joaquin's beautiful finca. The communication was easy and uncomplicated and Joaquin gave us great tips for our stay. He also facilitated the renting of bikes, which we got dropped to and picked from the finca. Simply great service, which we very much appreciated.
We stayed in the finca with three kids (3, 3 and 6 year old) who all had a ball exploring the vast plot which belongs to the house. We were spoilt for choice of terasse, balconies and patios. It was too cold to use the pool, but we did make use of the bbq and the garden(s) a lot!
The kitchen has all one needs for cooking at home, which we did 80 percent of the two weeks we were there.
Hot water, heating, internet, gas stove. It was all functioning well and made our stay more than comfortable.
The style of the interior is very charming, rustic and stylish. The finca is between Porto Cristo and Manacor in the countryside, so you need a car to get to town. But the next super market was only a 5 minute drive away.
For those who like it quieter, December is a great time to visit Mallorca. Many tourist shops are closed but that also means that you get to experience the nature and the beautiful towns more exclusively. It was the perfect weather (15-23 degrees during the day, I don't know if this is normal for this time of the year, it didn't rain once!) for site seeing and hiking, and the kids even got to splash around knee deep at a few beaches and play in the sand. (Thanks again for the tips, Joaquine!)
