We were so thrilled with our stay at Gloria's mountainside home in Cala Tuent!
While the drive to get up there through the Serra de Trumantana is not for the faint of heart, impatient or inexperienced driver.. it is beyond worth it for the incredible views. The beach down in the cove is a perfect place to begin your day with a cup of coffee to go and morning dip, or to cool down after hiking and sightseeing. Bring a good pair of hiking shoes or boots, as there are several amazing day hikes in the area.
We appreciated having access to a full kitchen to cook some meals and make coffee for ourselves, and with the special touch of Gloria's homemade treats in the fridge for breakfast. The balcony offers an incredibly peaceful backdrop for meals, reading, stargazing or storm-watching, as was the case for us... Watching a lightning storm rolling over the Mediterranean and into mountain valley was an experience that will stay with us forever. It's otherwise so quiet, that all you can hear is the wind or mountain goats bleating occasionally, the odd car on the winding road.
This is a very special place for the adventurous nature lover and we'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a magical mountain experience in Majorca.
