5.0/5

“Gorgeous, peaceful home with stunning pool/facilities”

The best

The location was perfect for us - a few cafes and restaurants in the small town of Buger but we had a car and got to explore the stunning beaches and surrounding areas. Only 30 mins from the airport which was perfect. Less than 10 mins from Sa Pobla for restaurants and supermarkets etc. Definitely get bottled water (we did drink tap on our first night as it was too late to head out and it wasn't that nice to drink). The house was amazing - we were a family of 4 adults and 1 toddler and had plenty of space. We enjoyed breakfasts on the terrace, swimming in the pool, BBQ's by the pool etc. The showers were of a decent pressure (have had some in the past that weren't good enough to wash my hair!). We did have to pay for electricity at the end (which we knew about) and I was pleasantly surprised that it was only around 72euro. Don't let it put you off as we used the aircon as much as needed and I was half expecting a huge bill but I felt it was reasonable for our useage. Recommendations: the cafe/pattiserie in Buger has beautiful cakes and is just a short walk away. There is another cafe just outside the church which was very reasonably priced (around 4euro for a coffee and coke). Really handy when you can't be bothered to drive out. Port de soller was the highlight of our visit and is well worth the 45 min drive. Alcudia beach had the clearest blue water and white sand but Port de Pollenca beach was probably my favourite for quieter family vibes.

To be improved

There are a few local (stray?) cats living on the property, mainly 3 adults and 3 kittens at the time of our visit. They are quite persistent in wanting to come in or try to steal BBQ food. I am allergic so this was a bit off putting but we did our best to ignore them and they kept away more after a few days. I did get scratched by one when trying to shimmy them away from my infant son so I was concerned they would swipe at him. That is the only negative and certainly didn't detract from our amazing stay here. Would definitely recommend and would return in the future.
