Description:
Approx. 90 m2 interior surface, 3 BR, 110m2 built on 560m2 plot with lots of privacy in a dead end street. A large 13m long pool with steps and a 1m shallow area and terrace. Walking distance to the beach, about 1,3 km. And just a few minutes walk to get fresh croissants and all amenities. But still being away from the crowd.

FAMILIES w/ small KIDS: pool can be fenced upon order & small surcharge.

2 bathrooms, 1 w/ bathtub & shower, 1 w/ shower. Also pool shower. Extra outside room for washing, 2nd fridge, utilities, toys.

We bought this charming house for a home away from home and invested in it e.g. with brand new mattresses, sofa, chairs, decoration (2016 & constantly), etc. and like to share it with people who take care whilst enjoying a great holiday. Couples, families, friends welcome ... no heavy party or heavy drinking vacation though. All amenities like supermarket, restaurants, pharmacy, very nice beach are close to reach on foot but far enough to avoid the noise and being in ones private spot on Menorca. It's feeling almost like in a "casa de campo" country house as it is bordering the nice countryside with views to the horizon and the sea even.
Cala en Porter beach is very nice, shallow, cristal clear waters, 20 min away on foot or 4 min by car, has a lifeguard, great snorkeling, kayak, etc. A 3km long beach is just 20min away by car. Cova D'En Xoroi beautiful club and chill-out terraces w/ bar is also in walking distance.
Other unconstructed beaches also not far like Cala Mitjana, Cala Macarella, Cala Mesquida, etc.. The villa has been rented for years by the previous owner to always happy holidaymakers. A repeating visitor from before our times wrote to us:
“Last time we really enjoyed the villa, this time was to be honest even better, it seemed a lot more loved, the furniture and new fire really set it off, my wife struggles to sleep on any bed except our own when away, but this time she slept like a log and found the new bed very comfortable. ... the house has improved a lot and feels much more loved."

WIFI will be arranged by us.- (Also your european mobile roaming should work well)
Note: an 2,20 EUR daily Menorca eco-tax applies additionally for each person above 16y. of age.

You will need to register your ID with local authorities via a QR code and simple instruction online upon arrival at the house.

Lovely villa with a great pool

We had a great 6 days despite some awful weather. The villa is beautiful and well equipped for all your needs. When the sun was shining relaxing by the superb pool with a cold drink was pretty much paradise. There are some nice places to eat in the town, the beach is lovely and the main supermarket is very good. Great place.

Home from home

Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the villa was fabulous, with a “home from home” feel about it. Despite being only a 15 minute drive from the airport, we never heard any planes overhead during our stay. We were very surprised at how comfortable the beds were & had it not been for the unexpected heat wave (about 34°in the day) that meant the rooms were 26° at night, we would have probably slept very well. Consequently, the massive pool was a “must” to cool down & was used at every opportunity. Despite having neighbours, the villa was very peaceful & felt totally private, with nobody overlooking the garden. The owner, Axel, was unbelievably helpful in the lead up to & during our holiday & was happy to answer all the questions we had. The local supermarket had a large selection of everyday items but we chose to do our bigger shops at Lidl, 15 minutes away in Mahon, as it was well stocked & fairly cheap in comparison. Places worth a visit were Son Bou, Mahon, Binibequer Vell & Ciutadella but Cala en Porter itself has a beautiful beach & a variety of great places to eat (El Pulpo does a very good paella). We had a lovely fortnight in this villa & would definitely recommend it.

Well appointed, lovely villa with a very large pool - great for our little family

The villa was great and well-appointed with all of the things you’d expect and more - decent kitchen equipment, dish a washer, washing machine. It was very much ‘a home from home’. The villa pool is really big and we (including our two small children (1 and 4 years old)) used it every day - there were floats and some beach toys there, which we used. Plenty of sun beds and places to relax within the villa grounds. The beds were very comfortable and the cot was also great. Everything in the villa is of good quality and clearly cared for by the owners. The ceiling fans provided light relief but there is also a standing fan which we had on in the children’s bedroom in the evening. We really needed one too and it was provided with a day or two of asking for it - nothing was too much trouble. The owner was very friendly, responsive and really helpful, we liked him very much and he made our trip very easy. We hired a car so shopped at the Lidl in Mahon although there is a minimart in the resort which is good for essentials but is generally more expensive, as you would expect. Having a car also enabled us to do day trips to Mahon (15 minutes away), Fornells (30 minutes away) and Cala Galdana beach (35-40 minutes away). Cala Galdana beach is great for young children as it is shallow and very gentle. We also drove down to Cala en Porter beach (you can walk but the hill coming back up is incredibly steep - there is a little bus/train that can take you from the resort to the beach if you’re without transport), which was beautifully clean and quite shallow but the waves were stronger. We loved it here and would definitely stay again.

Great location, great villa!

My family and I stayed here for 14 days and immediately settled in. It's about a 10-15 minute drive from the airport and simple enough to find. It's a well appointed, comfortable villa situated 5-10 minutes walk outside the main point of Cala en Porter. There's plenty of space and furniture to sit around the property. There's always a number of places either in the sun or in the shade so you'll be able to tan or shelter while reading a book, sipping a drink or just lazing about. It's far enough from town that it's quiet, it's in a cul-de-sac so no through traffic and the walk in to town to find some food or entertainment is quick and simple. The pool is a lovely size with steps in the shallow end and a ladder in the deep end. We spent a lot of time in it, the pump came on about 9.30am for a few hours (pool guy pops in every now and then in the early mornings so leave the gate unlocked). Gardener(s) came round a couple of times but were quick and friendly. Each bedroom in the villa has a ceiling fan and there's often sufficient breeze at night to make the peak temperatures bearable. We were here during a very hot period and we managed well enough. The beds are comfortable and there's wardrobes etc as expected. Two bathrooms each with a shower (bath shower in one), a toilet and hand basin. The kitchen is small but excellent and has all you need (except the food obviously) including a dishwasher. Some complementary tea/coffee and milk on arrival so you can have a drink while you unpack. There's a small utility room accessible from behind the house with a washing machine, freezer (if you need it) and assorted beach/pool toys/equipment. There's a friendly donkey who pops his head over the wall a couple of times a day and asks for an apple or a carrot (I assume that's what he meant). The children wanted to bring him home... The owner kept us up to date from the moment we booked and was always happy to answer any questions we had. I did have a few about the area as I'd never been and received good advice on things to do and places to go. There's a decent sized information pack with all the info in the villa as well, which was handy. There's no wifi but the EU roaming charges have gone now so that wasn't a problem for us at all. There're a couple of "supermarkets" in Cala en Porter which have good selections but they do cost more than the Lidl or Mercadona on the way to Mahón (15 mins by car).

About the host

Hosted by Axel Fordnered

I, Axel, have been coming to Menorca since 1979, playing on the beaches as a child and my parents had a small apartment. Every year I have been coming back and the island unlike others retains its charme and unconstructed, stunning beaches/bays, beautiful old towns, little harbours, countryside, traditions, etc. There are plenty of activities and sports to do if you like but mostly, just relax, enjoy. As a photographer I also took some nice pictures on Menorca which sell at international art fairs and galleries (Axel James Rockfish).

Why they chose this property

It's charme of a country house/casa de campo with unobstructed views over the countryside and occasionally with a few sheep next door (not smelling) or donkey but with a bigger size swimming pool and all amenities of being integrated in an urbanization. A true home away from home and we hope you will enjoy it just the same. - The previous owners had many happy renters. Please send us a message or call us so we want to make 100% sure it is free for the dates you like or offer you an alternative.
