Petit Palau

Beautiful traditionally styled house. Well equipped. Fantastic location with views over the port.

Need some more knives.

Great location and view, very well equipped and comfortable. Communication was easy and fast.

No negative points

Clean, well-equipped apartment with comfortable beds, good powerful showers and a stunning view.

Only real downside for us was it wasn't as quiet as hoped it would be. The building does not absorb sound so we could hear occupants from other apartments moving around (one at very unsociable hours). Also, the sound of the wind whistling through the arch windows and through the hallway of the main building was loud - probably not an issue for occupants staying in the summer though. This apartment is located up a steep, narrow road, so if, like us, you don't have a car, you'll get a bit of a workout walking up to it (especially when carrying bags of groceries).

We  had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday staying in Port De Soller and the accommodation exceeded our expectations.  We can happily agree with other reviewers, the photos  do not do this apartment justice! The building's architecture is of a Moorish design with so many little details dotted across the enclosed courtyard and the apartment itself, we were left amazed by its styling and a terrific feeling of space. The Location and View - 5 stars, probably the best we experienced during our stay. We walked all over Port de Soller and saw the beach and marina from many different locations and perspectives so we had many views and we think the view from this flat was the best.  My son loved looking out for the train ferreting to and from Soller. Parking outside was no problem at all. Even when returning late, we always managed to find a space within 30m from the apartment. The kitchen is very practical with its layout and we managed to enjoy a few evening meals with no issues from the kitchen. The bathroom and also the en-suite was also very practical for us, with a separate clothes dryer, in addition to the washing machine (if we knew, we've taken less clothes). There were some negative reviews with regards to some furniture being outdated, but maybe that was before the apartment was refurbished. Both bathrooms and kitchen are brand new, done to a high standard and the apartment is nicely decorated with good quality bed linen and towels. Some individual toiletries and a bottle of wine on arrival was a huge bonus too.  My husband did some cycling and the Port Soller base is perfect for exploring the Tramuntana area. For my son, there were 4 local playgrounds and a box of toys and games left to play with. There are plenty of nice restaurants within minutes of walk, our favourites were Es canyis, Campo Sol and the nearest Albatros bar with a live guitar singer performing almost daily.  It certainly has a wow factor, highly recommended!

Mothing really, we loved everything. The hill walk to/ from the promenade and restaurants is short (5 mins) but very steep - this may have to be a consideration for people with mobility issues. Once we got our fitness back, it was absolutely worth it for that view.
