Villa Bon viure

Wonderful little property with a spectacular view. Was a great location for us to explore the west of the island from as well as attend a friend’s wedding. Property was clean and well maintained with good appliances. Location wise Andratx has plenty of local amenities and we had a lovely stay. The port is worth a visit and has an excellent selection of restaurants. On the much mentioned car note: the lane up to the house is extremely narrow. We are both confident drivers and rented a brand new Toyota Yaris. Even this was extremely tight (I’m talking mm to spare either side of the wing mirrors). The house is at the top of a steep hill so if walking up inclines is any sort of an issue, you will need to drive. The entrance to the road is a hard and narrow right turn and there are two more hair pin bends lined with cars on one side to negotiate before getting to ‘the really narrow bit’. In hindsight we would have specifically requested something smaller - fiat 500 or aygo size - to make getting up and down the hill less stressful. There are lots of scooter hire places locally so this could also be an option if you’re confident on a bike. Some clearer instructions or a picture of where the allocated parking was would also have been helpful as we arrived in the middle of the night and struggled to find it. Saying that, watching the light dim over the town with the drifting scent of lemon trees floating through on the breeze was a delightful way to spend some evenings. When we did have a couple of issues the homerati team and the landlord were both really helpful and rectified things very quickly.

Lage, Aussstattung und Ampiente Tip Top

Muy bien.

Amazing location, stunning views, and comfortable, clean, characterful accommodation, with everything we needed for a relaxing break. Andratx itself is a pretty sleepy town, largely untouched by tourism. You’ll find a handful of shops, bars and restaurants though, including plenty of ‘locals haunts’ and a large supermarket. Port d’Andratx is a 10-minute cab ride or an hour’s walk away when it’s a bit cooler. We would have loved the pool to have been a bit bigger. It’s fine for dipping into to cool off, but you you won’t be able to swim in it! In fairness, this is mentioned in the listing though. We were a bit worried there might not be any sun loungers as we couldn’t see these in the pictures, but we found two waiting for us. The road up can be a little daunting at first if you’re driving. We were in a Fiat 500 so were fine, but wouldn’t recommend anything bigger. Overall, would definitely recommend.

Gute Unterkunft für 2Personen super ausblick nah am strand straße zum haus ist nur was für furchtlose autofahrer

Great stay, challenging access with the car, but worth the trouble

Wir haben uns hier sehr wohl gefühlt! Die Lage des Hauses ist super - man ist sehr schnell bei einer Vielzahl traumhafter Buchten und selbst nach Palma braucht man nur etwa 40 Minuten. Die Ausstattung des Hauses ist auch gut - es ist etwas rustikal aber auch das hat seinen Charme! Der Pool ist super und man hat keine direkten Nachbarn, sodass man hier Ruhe findet und den Urlaub genießen kann. Wir kommen gerne wieder! Das WLAN ist leider nicht so gut…

“Awesome place to spend some quiet days in Andratx. The view is simply fantastic!”

Das Haus selbst ist schön, das Drumherum ist nicht so erfreulich.

2 choses importantes à savoir avant de vous engager : la "piscine" si belle sur la photo est en réalité un petit bassin d'environ 2 mètres sur 5 avec une profondeur d'à peine 50 cm, donc oubliez les ploufs dans l'eau turquoise. la maison se situe sur les hauteurs de andratx, on y accède en voiture par une ruelle TRES étroite, tellement étroite que nous ne l'avons empruntée qu'une seule fois de peur de rayer la voiture. Finalement, nous avons préféré faire le chemin à pied chaque jour (5 minutes de marche) et laisser le véhicule en contrebas dans un parking gratuit. Pour le reste tout est conforme, la vue est splendide, l'endroit est très calme, la maison est charmante, très bien décorée, et la terrasse très agréable quelque soit l'heure de la journée, le soleil y est toujours au rendez-vous.
