We (2 adults and one 2.5 year old kid) had a great stay (2 weeks) at Mendi's house. Mendi is a great host, who gave us great tips and who was always available for question.
Even when the place is a little bit outlying you still can find everything you need, as long as you have a car: There are supermarkets close by (10 min ride by car), some nice restaurants in Alaró (5 min by car) and a very nice beach (specially for kids - 35 min by car).
We have been at the house in the high season (August), when Majorca is really crowded - but we did not notice it in Mendi's place. Everything there is very relaxed and far away from the touristic spots.
