About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Cottage in the mountains

First I would like to explain that to reach the house by car, you need experience on narrow mountain roads.
The road is paved, but it is quite narrow and has sharp curves with slopes.

To get to the house there is 3. 9 km (15 minutes) of narrow road from Biniaraix and 7km (25 minutes) from the petrol station of Soller

We say this because people are not used to this type of road and the road from Biniaraix to the house can make it difficult if you don't have some experience in driving on narrow roads.

The last two curves just before to get to the house are a bit closer and are together (These two curves are in the last two photos of the ad) and it is possible that some inexperienced drivers have to make a maneuver.

We have a Renault Kangoo and climb without any problem
To reach the house always recommend a small car or medium.

We also want to say that thanks to this narrow path, the landscape and the area has been preserved very little built, which makes it a very green place with great views, perfect for relaxing and disconnecting

The house is in a sunny place very well located for hiking.
From the house you can make excursions to the Barranc de Biniaraix, Puig de L'Ofre, Es Cormadors or Es Portell de sa Costa

Stunning location
We enjoyed our stay very much. The mountain location was so beautiful you didn’t want to leave it even to explore a nearby beach. The drive up and down is a challenging 25 mins with very steep and blind zigzags so we didn’t attempt to do it in the dark. However, we found the lovely village of Fornalutx by hiking 50mins each way which we did for eating out in the evenings. The restaurants are very good there. We stayed in 34 degrees heat in August and the evenings were difficult for sleeping with no AC but still worth it. The house is very spacious and indoor and outdoor kitchens very well equipped. Pool was also so wonderful to enjoy the view. Our kids loved hearing the sheep every day and passing by the friendly donkeys on our walks. We had a fabulous stay thank you!

Wow!
What an amazing property on the Tramontana mountains. Joan has rebuilt an old stone cottage and converted it into an incredible restful retreat. Fantastic view to wake up to surrounded by nature, grazing sheep and millennial olive trees. Watch the setting sun over Soller and take a dip in the pool to cool down after a hike,. Gracias, Joan and Gina for sharing your house with us.

Amazing house, breathtaking views, stunning weather.
Fabulous house in the mountains, it contained everything we needed. The views were to die for! Lots of eagles, mountain sheep, olive & lemon groves. Amazing outdoor space including barbecue & pool. Bit warm through the night, challenging 15 minute drive up to the property on single track troad with hairpin bends but very doable & got easier with practice! Just call in at the supermarket while you’re out for the day. Would definitely stay there again.

Secluded mountain paradise perfect for a relaxing getaway
LOVED IT. We REALLY enjoyed our stay the Mallorca mountain cottage. We weren't sure what to expect but we are glad we committed, primarily due to the reviews. It is true, the photos don't do the place justice. It truly is a unique and lovely property. Yes, the drive was daunting at first but grew to be manageable ... just make sure you stock up on plenty of deliciously (and cheap!) vino and yummy meats and treats for grilling in the amazing outdoor grill. We preferred to only make the drive up/down 1x per day - this might not be an ideal for those who plan on going back and forth a lot (drinking heavily or at night) but it's fine as long as you plan accordingly. The house was obviously very well built and thoughtfully designed, right down to the integrated bedrock in the living spaces. My architect husband definitely approved! The outdoor spaces were well laid out and the views to die for. Wild mountainous terrain and olive trees for miles! The sun comes from behind the mountain so the early mornings were shadowed but by 10:30 AM the top private patio had glorious sun and the evening sunsets were unparalleled. The newly added dipping pool area w outdoor shower really was an amazing addition. You literally feel like you're on top of the world. We only saw a random hiker and a few sheep so this place is perfect for those who want a peaceful, private, naturalistic getaway. Charming villages close by if you fancy a lunch out too. Palma was only about 40 mins away. Awesome scenic drive. Host was VERY responsive and accommodating. I would totally recommend. THANK YOU!

Stunning hillside house with beautiful views.
A lovely house in stunning surroundings with lots of outdoor space. It is a bit of a hike but very private. The pool area is beautiful as is the BBQ area. The wifi is excellent (a bonus with teenagers). The photos do not do this place justice, we would definitely visit again.

Traumhaus hoch oben im Tramuntanagebirge
Die Warnung von Juan vor der Anfahrt zum Haus ist sehr ernst zu nehmen. Man muss sehr gut, sehr enge Serpentinen fahren können inkl. Gegenverkehr, den man vorher nicht sieht und auch als Beifahrer*in starke Nerven haben. In einer der letzten Kurven muss man rangieren, sonst kommt man nicht rum. Je kleiner das Auto umso besser. Juan hat uns abgeholt und zum Haus eskortiert, sonst hätten wir es nicht gefunden. Wir sind in der Woche nur noch einmal runter gefahren und haben Lebensmittel eingekauft. Vom Haus aus können einige Wanderungen gemacht werden, wobei im Schnitt 400 Höhenmeter zu überwinden sind. Es ist eine traumhafte Lage und Kulisse und das Haus einfach genial, wunderschön und bestens ausgestattet. Die Heizung funktioniert super, wobei wir vor allem den Kamin genutzt haben. Sowohl die Innen als auch die Außenküche lassen keine Wünsche offen. Wir waren nur zu zweit da, wobei noch ein Schlafzimmer und zwei Sofa’s für je zwei Erw. da gewesen wären. Die Fotos entsprechen exact den Tatsachen, wobei es in live noch viel schöner ist.

Dank Joan und seinem Anwesen wurde es für uns ein erholsamer Urlaub. Da Haus entspricht voll und ganz der Anzeige, ist räumlich sogar größer wie man denkt. Ein wunderschöner Ausblick und die Ruhe sind beeindruckend.
