Porto Soller apartment
Review Submitted: November 13, 2008
Date of Stay: August 2008
We found the owner Steve to be very helpful and honest about the apartment,which was spacious( it's much bigger than it appears on the photos), well furnished and immaculatly clean and well maintained.Good directions were provided from the airport .Lovely pool ,our children often had it to themselves.A fairly steep walk down into Porto Soller with great views on the way,a car is useful to see more of the area .Public transport is plentiful and cheap from the port area.We enjoyed a trip to Palma on the little train ,used the charming tram to Soller,went to a festival in Soller town,walks along the coast ,rented a pedalo from porto soller beach,went swimming in the sea to the platform.We watched the beautiful sun set from the restaurant by the lighthouse(expensive ).the bar/ restaurant nearest the apartment did good food and has a lovely terrace overlooking the sea.(recommended by the owner)We tried several restaurants in town and can honestly say we never had a bad meal.The local supermarkets stocked all we needed to buy during our stay.
It would be an exellent place to stay at any time of the year as there are some exellent walking/rambling areas all around.
There are 80+ steps down to the apartment from the road and parking area ,this would be difficult for families with very young children , the pool area is near to the apartment ,in a gated area, but not too close so it is always peaceful.
