Blissful getaway
We stayed at Can Pontico for two weeks in August; two families with children from 10-12.
The villa was fantastic for this as there are two separate spaces - one upstairs and one downstairs- each with its own bathroom with a shower in each.
The main appeal for us was the stunning location. The views of mountains from all sides made it a really picturesque and relaxing stay. The pool was a great size and a real hit with the kids. The terrace off the kitchen overlooks the pool and mountains and we spent most of our time here.
The owner, Juan, was there every few days to clean the pool. He is a wonderful, welcoming person.
We visited the amazing spectacle of La Patrona festival, and by pure coincidence found ourselves outside his town house in Pollensa. Juan and his wife insisted we come inside to watch from an upstairs window, giving us all food and drinks. We were very glad to be inside when the crowds and noise became so crazy that we feared we might be crushed!
The festival is an amazing week-long celebration at the start of August each year- we’d really recommend it.
Beautiful Pollensa was a 35 minute walk away. After a week, we found the safe route to walk ( the main road is not safe!)
We thought it would have been helpful to have an information book in the Villa, detailing this walk and other places to visit. Other info such as rubbish disposal, linen change etc would have been helpful. Having said that, any questions we had were quickly answered by HomeAway or Juan.
We visited Cala Saint Vincent- great for snorkelling, the caves at Camponet and the beautiful Pine Walk in Puerto Pollensa. The Sunday Market in Pollensa is fantastic for food and crafts.
Overall a wonderful holiday in a fantastic location- we’d love to return!
