Well located spacious villa
We had a really lovely week. Three generations stayed. The villa is extremely spacious and perfect for larger groups. There is plenty of space for living and dining and the kitchen is very well equipped. We particularly enjoyed the huge shaded terrace for all our dining and relaxing, especially given the very hot weather we experienced. The villa is very well located and a short walk to the cove, beach, shops and a couple of bars and restaurants. There is a games cupboard with playing cards, boule and scrabble amongst other things. We appreciated the lovely wrap - around garden and found the location very peaceful. The view towards the sea is beautiful. The gardener visited whilst we were there and was very discrete and courteous. The only negative comment we have is the bad odour from the drains/swimming pool that others have mentioned. We think this might need looking into. Thank you for a lovely stay.

The layout of the villa is perfect for a large group, plenty of space , enough bathrooms, an amazing outside terrace (even in an occasional rain shower) and a lovely garden that wraps around the entire Villa. It is at the end of a short road so absolutely no noise, you can see the sea in the distance and the most amazing beach is minutes away on foot. Me and my friends and family loved every minute of our stay and Laurence made the booking experience such a pleasure in what has been uncertain times.

Millones de hormigas
La ubicación espectacular, la casa muy chula y amplia, aunque si le vendría bien un a utilización, Sábanas, cubierto, cazuelas muy usadas. Los peor las hormigas nos pasamos todo el día matando con insecticida por todos los rincones de la casa. Aun teniendo la casa limpia de comida y contratamos limpieza dos días en una semana.... era imposible deshacerse de las hormigas. Otro punto negativo no tiene aire acondicionado, aunque los sabíamos pero yo creo que es necesario, demadioncalos en las habitaciones.

Feedback
This is a fantastic villa, great gardens and pool. Location is perfect with views to the sea however it really needs a/c in the bedrooms. Fans only move the hot air around plus they are noisy. Did expect a maid service half way through the 9 night holiday to change towels etc but did not happen.

About the host

Hosted by Laurence de Lavallade

Host profile image
We are a family with 3 children and we love to spend holidays in family or with friends. We love water activities and simply swimming. We hope our guests will also spend very nice holidays.

Why they chose this property

After spending 3 weeks of holiday in Minorca in summer, we went back in April. We fell in love with this island, its preserved landscapes and the kindness of its inhabitants.

What makes this property unique

The views from the house are incredible and you can enjoy them from the huge shaded terrace and from the pool. The house is in a quiet setting yet around 100 m from the wonderful beach of Arenal d’en Castell and its tourist activities. For teenagers who want to be independent, there are also buses passing a few metres away from the house. Finally, a minimarket and supermarkets are very close. The house is also very practical.
