What a wonderful villa!!
We have just returned from a week's stay and have had the most brilliant time. Marc is a wonderful host. He's very friendly and was always quick to respond to any questions we had prior to and also during our stay. Check-in was very straightforward, with instructions clearly mapped out on the Airbnb app. Could not have been any easier.
The villa was spotlessly clean on arrival, very well appointed throughout and as described in the listing. The highlight was the incredible swimming pool which we seemed to live in for hours every day! So much fun was had by all- there are plenty of pool toys for children to enjoy as well as sun loungers. It is also worth knowing that the pool is huge and the water temperature was always warm. Late evening swims were wonderful!
The temperature throughout the week was incredibly hot during the day. Although it is still very warm in the evenings, do go up onto the roof terrace and enjoy the amazing sunsets. It is a wonderful place in which to unwind and relax.
Halfway through our stay the villa developed an electrical problem that affected use of the Air conditioning / fridge. We contacted Marc late one evening to notify him and he was very quick to help. Unfortunately the problem couldn't be solved there and then and required an electrician. Marc was fantastic in dealing with everything and arranged for one to attend the following lunchtime whilst we were out at the beach. Marc was present at the Villa in our absence and by the time we had returned that afternoon, everything was back to normal.
I cannot recommend this villa or Marc enough. It is a 5 minute drive to the beach and we enjoyed a couple of lovely lunches / dinners at El Sol on the beachfront. I was having trouble getting through to the restaurant ( it is extremely popular and busy all day long) and enlisted Marc's help to reserve us a table. He very kindly obliged and worked his magic :)
Can Picafort is the nearest town which is 7km down the road where there is a large supermarket, and has everything you need. There is also a well stocked convenience store along the road from the villa ( 2 min drive), if you want something more local.
If you are considering a holiday in Mallorca and want to get away from all the crowds in Palma and surrounding hotspots, then this villa is a must. It is just under an hour's drive from Palma and situated on the edge of a quiet town where you can get away from all the hustle and bustle.
Our only regret is that we didn't stay longer. Thank you Marc- we are definitely coming back!!!
