The villa is set back from the quiet residential road with lovely gardens and a sizeable pool. The villa was very clean and maintained to a high standard. The information book was full of useful information.

It is worth mentioning here that the buses run, both ways: one way to San Climent (stay on this bus for Mahon where you can pick up buses from the terminus to everywhere on the island) for food and the other way to the beautiful cove at Cala n'porter, from the same bus stop but do ensure you check the timetable as they run about every 1 1/2 hours during the day and have a break of a couple of hours between 2 and 4 for siesta. The buses do stop running relatively early in the evening but there was no problem getting a taxi back to the villa from the main square in Mahon. There is no service on a Sunday. The Spa supermarket is open between 9 and 2 on a Sunday. If you smoke be aware that the Tabac shop in San Climent and is the only place you can buy tabacco products. It closes between 2 and 4 and is open on a Sunday.

The walk into San Climent is pretty but it is 2.5k and is hilly in parts with no shade. Do ensure you take water and wear suncream to avoid sunburn. We were caught out in both ways!

The villa is homely and traditional and the bedrooms are cosy with really lovely bedding with the additional bonus of having a lovely bathroom each. The beds were really comfy which is important to us. Many of the villas we have stayed in, over the last 7 years or so, have insubstantial beds with poor mattresses so this was a treat.

The pool is a really good size for swimming and was very clean with crystal clear water. The welcome pack was really comprehensive and was a lovely treat.

I love to cook and the kitchen had every utensil necessary to do this successfully. There was a huge selection of glassware and crockery which was great.

We loved the peaceful location and the fact that it is so close to the airport. There is a taxi number in the information folder and the operator spoke very good English so there was no problem ordering a taxi for the return journey. The taxi arrived bang on time too.

Dealing with the owner was a pleasure during the booking process; excellent customer service was provided throughout.

We found Menorca to be quiet, friendly and sophisticated but if you want nightlife there are nightclubs in Mahon and a Space in Cuitadella.

We will definitely be coming back.
