Delicious Things Pollença, Balearic Islands

Holiday Rental Description

Entertainment and relaxation go hand-in-hand in this sunny Mallorcan villa. Kept secluded with a secure gate, yet just a five-minute walk from the restaurants, bars, and beach of Puerto de Pollenca, this charming villa is a gem.

We love the traditional touches of this home – even from first impressions of the exterior, the shutters, red-tiled roof, and terracotta floors add a homeliness that isn’t apparent in all luxury villas. Step inside and you’ll see that the homely feeling isn’t unfounded – vaulted wooden ceilings and plush sofas make for a cosy living space, perfect for those relaxed evenings in. Each bedroom is beautifully open and airy, with a view of the verdant surroundings and garden below.

The interior is lovely, but we imagine you’ll be spending most of your time making the most of the outdoor space. There’s plenty of room for the little ones to run around and explore, while the grown-ups remain horizontal and happy on the sun loungers. Catch up on your holiday read, occasionally taking a dip in the pool, before challenging your group to a game of table tennis. Or, maybe you’d prefer a game of pool back inside.

When talk turns to dinner, take the five-minute walk to the supermarket and pick up local produce for a Mediterranean barbecued feast. You’ll love tucking in alfresco while the sky starts to dim into shades of purple, encouraging the solar-powered lights to add a lovely ambience. If cooking isn't on the cards, there are endless dining options within easy reach.
