The most relaxing and charming place!

I stayed here with my mum, auntie and cousin and all of us fell in love with the house and garden, it’s a calm oasis with a stunning view whilst also being only a stones throw from the main square, selva is picture postcard pretty. The house isn’t hi-tech modern but we loved that, it’s filled with beautiful furniture and paintings and there is so much space to enjoy. We would love to return! If I had to find one area for improvement, it would be to have a/c in a couple more of the bedrooms, despite 2 being linked to the upper living space with a/c we found the rooms warm.

A special place

We were a party of nine with ages ranging from 2 to 62. This property was perfect for us with plenty of space, shade & a lovely pool. An added bonus was a spacious garage that fitted in a 9 seater mini bus & 3 mopeds! The Village was lovely & had enough bars & restaurants for us. Rafael was the perfect host and I would not hesitant to recommend this property & would love to visit again.

Cosy House - Super location!

Traditional Spanish house with good space, nice pool area and lovely terrasse. The landlord was very kind and responded immediately to our requests. Selva is a quite village with shops for daily needs and good restaurants and cafés. For bike cycles entusiasts this is the ideal place! We would like to return to this house another time!

Fabulous house in the perfect location

We planned to stay in Selva to attend my niece's wedding in the town so wanted a property that was in the right location, had a pool and space for 5 of us to stay - Can Rafael ticked all the boxes and more. The house is huge, a wonderful entrance hall with high ceilings, leading one way to a small lounge with full bathroom just off, the other to a dining room and into the kitchen (well stocked as we did plenty of cooking). However, the main draw is once you step outside to the wonderful terrace - a covered area with seating leading to another covered dining area then onto a fantastic pool with sun beds all around. Then there is the view - stretching out south across the island, simply stunning. The bedrooms are all good sizes, 2 upstairs with air con units, 2 others upstairs benefit from air con in a further lounge upstairs (the twin down stairs doesn't have A/C so may get a bit warm), one twin is en suite, 2 other bathrooms upstairs so plenty of room for families. The beds were comfortable enough and each room had plenty of storage for clothes. The house is on a side road approx 50m from the town square with 2 restaurants within a minute's walk (1 literally next door), plus a bank and 2 further bars / restaurants around the square. There is a small supermarket a short drive the other side of town (5-10 walk) for basic supplies so everything is within walking distance which puts the house in an ideal position (there is also a huge garage 20m from the front door for those with a car, ideal as it keeps the sun off and keeps the car cool). 1 minor point, there is no "welcome pack" (milk, bread, wine etc) which we have seen at similar properties across Europe and a few more towels would be beneficial but we have contacted Rafael and he will provide these going forward. All in all, this is a wonderful property, particularly if you fill all the beds as it then makes it VERY good value for money and one we expect we'll return to.

About the host

Hosted by Rafael Coll

Why they chose this property

"Can Rafael 'is a typical old Mallorcan house, comfortable, spacious and well equipped. Decorated in a typical Mallorcan style, some of the furniture are from nineteenth century. There is central heating for the cooler and air conditioning on the first floor for the summer months. Small size and located in the quiet village of Selva, near the square and the church. Far from the mass tourism routes the village is on top of a hill in the center of the island and you can enjoy beautiful views of the plains of Mallorca from the terrace of the house or visit the typical Majorcan restaurants and bars.

The house is the ideal starting point for car excursions or long walks to discover the surrounding of Selva, trekking or hiking in the mountains of the Serra de Tramuntana. Also, it is ideal as a base for cycling routes. In the nearby town of Inca, there are excellent shops with a large weekly market in the city center on Thursdays and some typical restaurants to sample Majorcan cuisine.

From Inca, the capital, Palma, is easily accessible by train, from where you can take the tourist train to Soller through the mountains. The Inca road through the village and continue up into the mountains of the mountain range 'Serra de Tramuntana', towards Torrent de Pareis and towns of Sóller, Deià and Valldemossa. The beaches of Alcudia and Port de Pollensa can be reached easily as well.
