We returned home last week from our European travels. I want you to know how much we enjoyed visiting Fornalutx and staying in your charming house. We drove to many other places in Mallorca, including Deia, Valdemossa, Alcudia and Palma,but found none of them able to compete with the beauty of Fornalutx. We explored many places by car and foot, but liked best of all the days of complete relaxation we had in the village. We found your house to be perfectly equipped and elegantly furnished; I have no suggestions for changes. Everything was completely satisfactory. We have stayed in apartments and townhouses throughout Europe and have to rate yours as the best. Thanks for all the information you sent us prior to our visit.
