Do not miss this island gem of a villa encircled by the soaring cliffs of the Serra DeTramuntana. To be able to watch the sunrise as it crests the mountain range from the luxury of your own large pool is fabulous and very special.
What more do you need than a villa with a pool amidst an orange grove? You can wallk to the beach via a private walk through orange and lemon groves and an olive grove, to that lovely smell of the heat of summer and the smell of citrus fruit.
Built at the turn of the 18th Century this beautiful Casa has a fabulous entrance hall and many of the original features of the building have been tastefully restored. From its traditional majorcan tile work to the lovely majorcan firplace, to the classic majorcan high back chairs. Despite its age the facilities are all modern, and the showers excellent after that long day by the beach or the pool and the concierge is attentive to all your needs. In one respect to enter the building is like stepping back in time with its ancient double eagle Majorcan lock and great wooden and iron studded double doors and yet all the rooms are well appointed and comfortable.
There are a number of areas outside to relax in, have meals, or sit beside the pool, so a shady spot can always be found in the heat of the day. The pool is well maintained and has good sun loungers.
There is an excellent Majorcan restaurant restaurant 10 minutes away with a great terrace overlooking the sea. The food is excellent and they serve the renowned Binsallem Majorcan wine as well as other local wines and locally caught fish.
The local beach is a stones throw form the villa and although popular it is not overcrowded. I found it good for snorkelling and to watch some impressive yachts that anchor further out in the bay.
Karel your host keeps in contact with you to check your OK and ensure you have everything you need and has plenty of information about places to go to, suggestions about good restaurants, the best markets and many more valuable tips .
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and can't recommend it enough.
