Pests everywhere
Not for usThe property was a bit dark and rustic for us. Kitchen a bit small and some bedrooms had no window. Worst of all was lack of aircon in 35 degrees. We had to buy fans. Also there were hundreds of mosquitos ..everyone of us bitten. Added to this there were were wasps and two of us were bitten hand had allergic reactions.

Secluded Mallorcan bliss.
We had a fantastic stay here in mid May. The weather was hit and miss and a bit cold to go into the pool but we still managed a few swims. The house is so spacious you could enjoy your time indoors as much as outdoors. With log burners, a pizza oven and plenty of social spaces. Note that you'll need your own speaker as the radio didn't get much signal but the internet reception was great. The house is almost at the end of a long winding lane up the mountain which means it is a bit inconvenient if you are planning to pop in and out but we managed to come down in about 12 minutes to Pollensa town and up I'm 15 minutes of you're a confident driver (not quite the 20 minutes the sat nab indicates). Make sure you follow the sat nab. People following directions made a wrong turn into a dirt track and one got a puncture. Most cars are fine if you follow the right path. The house itself is very authentic and there is lots of charming (sometimes funky) furniture and nooks and crannies. Not too keen on the colourful bright faux flowers and cushions so we hid those for our stay. Our slight disappointment was with the size of the rooms as they look a bit larger in the photos. There are two very spacious ensuites. One sleeps 4 the other sleeps 2. The third double shares a bathroom with a twin room (which only has a skylight as window). Then there's a twin ensuite downstairs. And a small room which could fit two singles (just about) but it only had one single when we were there. This is slightly the short straw (if you use it) as the room is by the kitchen and shares the downstairs loo and also only has a small skylight for a window. However once the bedroom allocation is resolved the place is magical. The secluded location, the vast amount of outdoor areas and seating to chill out and socialize, the views into the steep mountains, and the animals that graze nearby (donkeys and sheep), the lush planting all make for an unforgettable holiday. We also got a masseuse to pop over and relax us. If you're thinking of hiring taxis (found them more economical than mini buses) they do make the trip and works around €36 from Alcudia or €80 to Palma airport. The only downside is you cannot book in advance but they're readily available. As far as beaches Playa Formentor Is a must!! Feels like the Caribbean came to the med. You do have to pay for parking it's about €0.05 per minute but totally worth it when we went it wasn't too busy. We loved everything about it!

Ein sehr entspannter Urlaub
Die Lage (ca. 5 Km von der Hauptstrasse der Stadt Pollenca in die Nähe des Tramuntana-Gebirges) ist etwas abgelegen und lädt sehr zum erholsamen Aufenthalt ein. Wir haben die Lage sehr genossen. Die erste Anfahrt wirkt etwas rustikal. Je öfter man die Strecke zurück legt, wirkt alles normal. Eine sehr schöne und saubere Finka. Wir werden bestimmt wiederkommen.
