It is protected by the Spanish National Patrimony for its unique historic, architectural, and natural value. About 500 inhabitants, quiet but not isolated. This area of the island is not crowded with too many tourists because there aren't large hotels.

Review Submitted: December 6, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
Dear Carmen,
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. P Killgore, UK
Dear Carmen,
Just a short mail to let you know that we had a terrific time at your beautiful place in idyllic Fornalutx. We had a nice weather the whole time and the house was really charming -a gem! E. S, Norway

In the Heart of Village Life

Review Submitted: June 8, 2010 Date of Stay: October 2009
Carmen's property in Fornalutx is ideally situated for those who want to have the experience of living in a community as well as enjoying a beautifully maintained and comfortable home. Walk out the front door and you are in the center of village life. Morning coffee, a delicious pastry from the local bakery, a seat at the village bar with lively conversation with friendly and welcoming local residents, a well provisioned market, and restaurants become a part of your daily life. Day trips around Mallorca are easy to accomplish and their is a pleasant hike through ancient olive groves to the nearby city of Soller. Carmen has created a home for those who want to genuinely experience daily life in a village in Fornalutx but venture beyond. We are already planning our next next stay at this delightful village home.

Great place to be for hikers and bikers

Review Submitted: June 18, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
We've enjoyed the stay a lot. It is a really charming house in the center of a lovely village in the Tramuntana Mountains, just "a step" from Palma away.
It provides everything you need for a holiday: enough space for up to 4 people (should be family members or very close friends since there are two bedrooms on two different floors just divided by the steps; one bathroom in one of the bedrooms), beautifully renovated, very clean and with a comfortable kitchen. The self-service supermarket is just over the "plaza" and you are in the heart of the village - either with contact to the people living there or not. We will come back as soon as it is possible for us. Thank you again, Carmen, for staying at your house!
