Villa in Fornalutx With Private Pool and Stunning Mountain Views, near Soller
Ca's Penelope is an unusual house built by a Belgian photographer with curved walls, huge airy rooms and a real get-away-from-it all feeling that many guests find hard to leave. The 13m private swimming pool in lush citrus-filled garden with stylish outdoor dining and breathtaking 360 degree views, put the seal on easy living. It's 5 minutes walk to the centre of 'prettiest village in Spain' Fornalutx where you will find everything you need for a relaxing holiday. There's a well-stocked village shop, bakery, bank, chemist, cafés and a number of restaurants. This stylish house is featured in interior design magazines but is a family home for some of the year and is therefore extremely well equipped. There's wonderful Tramuntana hiking and cycling from the doorstep, bustling Soller for a Saturday morning market 'fix' and a bigger supermarket shop, a tram ride or scenic train to Palma and just down the road (6 km) you will find the lively Port de Soller with its many beaches, restaurants and busy marina. It's a perfect spot for a holiday in a beautiful natural environment.

We loved the scenic view from the pool. The house is lovely! Proximity to Fornalutx and Soller is great! We hope to return one day.
Car rental tip - get a small rental car for easier driving on narrow streets and parking!
We stayed for a week at the end of October and were pleasantly surprised that the weather was still warm enough for swimming in the pool and in the sea. Fornalutx is one of the prettiest towns on the island, and we loved being within easy walking distance of the square and the excellent bakery.
A group of friends had an amazing stay at this treat of a villa on the outskirts of Fornalutz. The house is amazing. I think it exceeded the photos. Very private, easy to get to by transfer from Palma. ( We chose not to hire a car) An incredibly generous welcome pack so we could settle in and quickly start enjoying our surroundings. It was so appreciated. The villa is just a short walk from the village - we had some lovely meals in a range of local restaurants and were able to meander back. We also walked to Soller which was hot but infinitely doable.. Bus back ! We enjoyed the shops and then took a tram trip to Port de Soller. We did not go any further as we were there for just 4 days and wanted to enjoy the villa. It’s really very comfortable. Communication with Jenny were excellent all the way from point of booking to moment of departure. Very helpful advice and very accommodating. Likewise Rachel thr villa manager was excellent. I think we all concluded it would be a villa we would return to either together or with families ! Thank you
Beautiful property with stunning views located within walking distance of the pretty village of Fornalutx. We were a party of 10 adults (mum, dad and our 4 adult kids & partners) and found the house very spacious & well equipped for all our needs. The large pool was particularly appreciated and well used.
Jenny was very communicative & helpful even recommending restaurants in Palma for us.
A brilliant & very special place to holiday.
We had a wonderful week in this villa. From the start communication was so easy and helpful. On arrival the most generous and kind welcome pack to save on panic shopping. Beautiful villa, clean and clearly a happy home too. Wish we were still there!
