A Touch of Serenity

A Touch of Serenity: Balearic Islands

This traditional villa boasts a private swimming pool surrounded by a pretty garden, yet it's only a short walk from one of Mallorca's nicest cove beaches. Just ten minutes on foot from Cala Sa Nau and a five-minute drive from Cala d'Or, you couldn't ask for a better spot to explore the island – but when you're not out and about, there's plenty to enjoy back home, too. We're talking sun-kissed terraces, a built-in barbecue and plenty of spots to sprawl out in the rays. The rustic interiors won't appeal to everyone – in particular, the bathrooms are somewhat dated – but the single-level layout will suit guests who struggle with stairs.

Home truths:
*While the second bathroom isn't photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home. However, the traditional and dated design here may not be to everyone's tastes.
*This is a rural area, so you may hear and see wildlife like lizards, dragonflies, frogs, owls, and goats.
*The pool is generally open from April to October. Please speak to your host about the exact dates. Also note that it's unfenced, so children will need to be supervised.
*The fireplace is non-operational. There also isn't air conditioning here, but there are ceiling fans in the bedrooms.
*Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There’s free private parking here.
