San Lorenzo - Palma

we were happy here because we got a villa next to the beach. we could hear the ocean all day and night, go swimming 3 or 5 times a day, and dry off on the lounge chairs in our own garden. at dinner time, we could sit on the terrace and see the blue sea. in the morning, just before leaving to the airport, we could take a sunrise dip in the ocean. sandy beach with a few rocky parts; actually the spot before nr 53 is a sweet spot - not too busy, not too rocky, somehow private. just be aware that this is a gated community, a holiday village with mass entertainment and rented beach chairs in 3 rows. but if you go off-season, or if you have kids and need the facilities, then it's just right. we enjoyed our stay a lot, although (via an airbnb booking) we expected something different -- in the end we loved it. thanks to the manager sujeewa who gave us the villa we wanted, and took good care of us. in general, the management / staff is very friendly, caring, charming, international, multilingual. we didnt try the restaurant; it was sort of OK for a bit of breakfast, but it has no atmosphere, more like the kiosque in a public swimming pool. Food may or may not be fine though, we just don't knowl. Surrounding: marzameni's "big square" is worth going to for dinner. gorgeous surprise with a wedding party or something, i guess they have that every other weekend. don't give up on the village before you reach that square.
