We got a taxi from the airport for €18 . We arrived at the property 7pm and were met by the owner . He showed us the house and competed some admin eg meter readings for electricity. He took time to show us where everything was and explain things which was very kind. He also gave us his mobile number to contact him in case of any problems . The property was as described, an old fisherman’s cottage . Really good sized bedrooms and large bathroom . All living areas were spacious , including a large private back yard that was not overlooked.
We loved the area of el Molinar and Portitxol , plenty of really great small restaurants , no horrid tourist tat shops , lovely little beaches . There is a cycle path and walkway for several miles in each direction from here , we hired bikes from palma and also ran each morning before it got too hot . There is a fairly large supermarket 5 minutes away , and also a fabulous independent fruit and veg , bread and deli also 5 minutes away which sadly we didn’t find until 2 days before coming home , which is highly recommended , like an Aladdin’s cafe of lovely produce !
Palma is a great city to explore too , it’s about 45 minutes walk away , so we often walked there and then got a taxi home which was usually approx €5-6 so very cheap
A really wonderful family holiday
