Very comfortable and tranquil villa, as detailed in the owner’s description, with large terraces both front and back offering cool shade during the heat of the day. All facilities as described, including a safe for valuables (though to note the satellite tv only receives German-speaking channels). The site is very peaceful, without any music playing pool-side or from the other villas. The pool itself is lovely, clean and well-maintained, with plenty of chairs surrounding (in any case there were normally only a couple of other families using the pool area at any one time). The setting is on a small hill-side, with plentiful pine trees again offering shade. (There are steps up to the complex, not a problem for us but to note for anyone with restricted mobility).

Cala San Vincente is a small resort, with two very nice sand beaches which lower gradually into the sea. Swimming in the clear, warm-ish sea is very enjoyable, the many fish keeping the children amused (it’s a good idea to bring a mask and snorkel or at least swimming goggles). There are a couple of small supermarkets which are quite pricey, and so we generally took the bus or walked to Puerto Pollensa where there’s an Eroski; by car there’s a larger Eroski/Syp and Lidl about 2 miles inland on the way to Pollensa. The bus service to both Pollensa and PP is reliable, though infrequent (costing 1.50E each way with no discounts). Choice of eating out is limited in CSV itself, particularly as Modesto has now closed (out of business); we ate at Pepe’s and La Tosca just down from the complex, and also in Pollensa (Bar Nou) and PP. Whilst CSV is a quiet and family-oriented resort, to note there's quite loud music most evenings from the main hotel from about 9.30pm which however reliably ends at 11.00pm (apart from Saturday when it went on till 2.00am).

Overall, we had a very relaxing time and very much enjoyed our stay. We spent most of the time relaxing on the villa terraces, by the pool when the children were swimming/playing, and on the nearest beach, Cala Molins. The owner Fernando is very responsive (we communicated via HomeAway messaging), and all the arrangements went as planned. In summary, we’d very much recommend a stay at this villa!
