When we checked in we were greeted with fruit, wine and a cake which was very nice. To their credit, the house was clean and the photos were accurate. There is plenty of hot water which is great. The terrace at the back is nice and has a good table and umbrella. Though there was no table in the living room in front of the sofa, making it difficult to drink or snack except at the dining room table.
The neighborhood is calm, quiet and plenty of parking. Can Picafort is a safe, family destination with plenty of great beaches, restaurants. This house has great potential and is simply lacking A/C in the bedrooms, more nice touches those "make you feel at home" amenities. We would return to Can Picafort again.
On the other hand the big apparent difference between a private listing (which usually has plenty of nice touches), this property is currently run by a property management company.
We were therefore chagrined and surprised that the house contained no shampoo, no conditioner, and we had to purchase basics such as: cooking oil, salt, pepper, sugar, olive oil, hot pads. The kitchen only had 2 small dish towels, and being so close to the beach the place had no beach towels, no umbrella for the beach, no beach chairs, no cool packs to take to the beach, no beach plates and dishes, no Tupperware to store cooked food, no coffee, no tea, no spices, no shopping bags for going to the store, no dish washing tablets, no garbage bags, no recycling separation bins, not much toilet paper, no toilet cleaner, no laundry detergent, no charcoal, no napkins, no paper towels, no bar of soap for the kitchen, no candles.
The appliances in place are on the cheaper side, from our perspective the beds very uncomfortable, and no air conditioning made it frankly unbearable to sleep. We met the owner who was lovely and said he would install A/C in 2020. We were indeed told there was no A/C and we personally found the fans inadequate for us to keep the place cool enough, it was hot (37 C° daytime in the house and 25-27 C° at night).
Also there were no tourist prospects left behind, no brochures, and there was no folder to explain where Dr's, on call pharmacies, good restaurants, tips and places to visit, no guestbook, and a few tips to get started... Perhaps two sets of keys would be helpful.
