Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Villa. Beautiful views and so peaceful. Kids and adults loved the pool. Shady spots in the garden for when itâs hot.
Tranquil rustic Spanish Villa we would definitely use again
Lovely villa with three good-sized bedrooms (which all have effective air conditioning and amazing views). Fantastic views also from the terrace and the nicely-kept garden. The swimming pool is well placed next to to the terrace, which has comfortable seating. It's a five minute drive along tarmac roads into Pollenca where parking is free. Lots of lovely restaurants there, and the Sunday market was great. Cala San Vincent (very close by) was great to visit, although the highlight trip for us was the Rafa Nadal museum and Drachs caves in the south east (about an hour's drive). We had a fantastic two weeks at the villa.
Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt in der Finca. Jeden Morgen der Blick auf die Berge und die Ruhe dort an der Finca - fast schon unbezahlbar. Die Kommunikation mit den EigentĂŒmern war hervorragend. Alles funktionierte ĂŒber WhatsApp. Der Besitzer war ein paar Mal da um den Garten zu reinigen und den Pool zu sĂ€ubern, und das alles ziemlich unauffĂ€llig. Bei Einzug in der Finca, waren schon zwei Flaschen Wein, sowie Wasser bereitgestellt. Zweimal stand frisch geerntetes GemĂŒse vom Besitzer auf der Veranda, nachdem wir vom Ausflug zurĂŒckgekehrt sind. Also alles top ! Haben den Aufenthalt dort in vollen ZĂŒgen genossen. Pool, Grill, Veranda, Finca selbst, alles super und sauber. Einziger Kritikpunkt, keine MĂŒckengitter an den Fenstern. Aber das wĂ€re jammern auf hohem Niveau. Ich kann die Finca empfehlen. Vielleicht kommen wir ja nochmal wieder. Viele GrĂŒĂe an die Besitzer.
Sonninge Herbsttage Ende Oktober, Ausgangspunkt zum Wandern in der Nord-Ostecke der Insel ideal, zum Schwimmen im Pool zu kaltes Wasser, Haus war gut, aber schlicht ausgestattet. Leider quĂ€lten uns die MĂŒcken (keine Insektenschutzgitter). Nach Pollenca kann man locker zu FuĂ gehen.
Wir hatten einen sehr ruhigen, entspannten Urlaub in der Villa Can Xavier. Die Lage ist sehr schön im GrĂŒnen gelegen nicht zu weit auĂerhalb des nicht ĂŒberlaufenen StĂ€dtchens Pollenca. Das Wetter Ende September, Anfang Oktober war sommerlich warm, der Pool gut gepflegt, warm und einladend mit flacherem und tiefem Bereich. Leider hatte es zu dieser Zeit extrem viele StechmĂŒcken. Die Schlafzimmer haben alle Klimaanlagen aber leider keinen Moskitoschutz. Den mussten wir selbst mit Vorhanggewebe an den Fenstern herstellen. Die Ausstattung der KĂŒche ist ausreichend gut, das Geschirr sollte aber besser auf Sauberkeit kontrolliert werden.
Alles in allem ein sehr gutes Feriendomizil fĂŒr Familie mit Kindern.
Das Haus hat war sauber und gemĂŒtlich und hatte einen wunderbaren Ausblick. Der Pool hatte die perfekte GröĂe und wurde von uns allen hĂ€ufig genutzt. Auf der ĂŒberdachten Terasse konnte man es auch bei ĂŒber 30°C gut aushalten. Die StraĂe zwischen Pollenca und dem Haus wirkte am Anfang sehr eng, man gewöhnte sich mit der Zeit aber daran und es gab doch viel mehr Möglichkeiten aneinander vorbeizufahren, als es ursprĂŒnglich aussah. Die Vermieter waren sehr nett.
The property was in an excellent location a car will be needed but everything is in a 10-20 minute drive for some beautiful beaches and places to visit. The local town is lovely very traditional offers great little cafes, restaurants and shops. Best place to start your exploring is from the town square. Sundays is market day Pollenca market is much better than the one on a Wednesday in Porto Pollenca.
The property is just like the listing it was easy to book and good directions to the villa. Might be worth noting that we arrived very late so did not have anyone to meet us but the key was left for entry. It would be helpful to have a sign just by the entrance to confirm the villa as we werenât sure if we had entered the right place.To wake in the morning to a beautiful view and well kept gardens was perfect. We have loved our time here and found it difficult to leave. Definitely a place to come and spend more time and explore further.
We are giving Can Xavier 5 stars for the outside area alone and for dealing with Carolina and Xavier.The house is situated in a valley and the scenery with the mountains all around is beautiful.We loved the garden and enjoyed watching and listening to the birds and spotting some Hummingbird Hawk Moths and colourful butterflies.The outdoor area is large with plenty of places to sit and get shade when needed.There is also a hammock that you can move under a tree and just chill in the shade.There are neighbouring houses but you are not overlooked in the garden and by the pool.It was quiet and peaceful mostly apart from the usual farm noises and neighbours dogs at times.The house is a rustic farmhouse.There are very few house supplies as stated by other visitors - just a few dishwasher tablets.There was some lovely Cava and beer and water in the fridge for us.There are no house instructions but whatever you cannot figure out for yourself , you will be able to contact Carolina on Whatsapp.We would recommend hiring a car to see the Port of Pollenca,the old town in Alcudia and even Pollenca town as the roads into the village are very narrow and windey and there are no footpaths.Nearly all the TV stations are German with no subtitles and the English ones are all news channels.You should try to do the 365 Calvari steps in Pollenca as the climb is worth the views.We really enjoyed our 17 days at Can Xavier.
Die Kommunikation mit den Vermietern war bestens. Wir haben uns ĂŒber die Willkommenspresente (Wein,Bier,Saft,..) gefreut. Die Finca, der Garten, der Pool und Umgebung entsprachen der Inseratbeschreibung vollumfĂ€nglich. Wir haben uns dort sehr wohl gefĂŒhlt und können diese Finca weiter empfehlen.
Wir waren mit unserem Urlaub im Gesamten sehr zufrieden. Die Finca hat uns alles geboten was dazu gehört: groĂer sauberer Pool zum sofort reinspringen oder kurze Strecken zum Meerbaden, schön gestalteter Garten mit Bergblick in allen Richtungen und somit auch nahe Wege zum Wandern. Aber auch Pollenca und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind schnell erreicht. Dies trotz absolut ruhiger Lage.
Abends haben wir fast nur gegrillt, da der Ess- und Grillbereich auĂen sehr gemĂŒtlich und zentral gelegen ist. Vor allem aber auch dank der wöchentlichen Lieferung in Form von Obst und GemĂŒse aus dem eigenen Garten von Javier. An dieser Stelle noch viele herzliche GrĂŒĂe und ein groĂes Dankeschön fĂŒr Alles! :)
Die Finca ist an alle weiter zu empfehlen, die gerne in der Natur sind, aber jederzeit auch die Möglichkeit haben wollen etwas zu unternehmen.
P.S.: bei der Ankunft wurden wir sogar damit ĂŒberrascht, dass der KĂŒhlschrank bereits mit Wasser, Wein, Bier und Saft gefĂŒllt war!
We had a fantastic holiday at Villa Can Xavier. The villa itself is very well equipped and set in lovely, well maintained gardens with spectacular views of the surrounding mountains. It is quiet and peaceful yet only a 5 minute drive from Pollensa town and a 10/15 minute drive from the beaches at Cala St Vicente and Puerto Pollensa. We were very well looked after by the owner Xavier and Margarita. Xavier even brought us fresh fruit and vegetables from his own garden. The covered verandah provided a lovely setting for breakfast lunch and dinner with a good BBQ area and sitting area which we used every day and was great for taking a break from the sun. The pool was a good size and well maintained and we went swimming every day. Pollensa town itself is beautiful and has some great restaurants, cafes and shops. We will definitely return to Pollensa and hope to stay at Villa Can Xavier the next time we visit
Three of us thoroughly enjoyed our four-night stay in this 3-bed villa. The pool sits in a quiet, well planted garden with wider views of the hills and the beginning of the Tramuntana. The setting is rural but the centre of Pollenca with its golden stone buildings and numerous restaurants is no more than five minutes by car or 30 minutes on foot. Puerta de Pollenca , no more than 15 minutes away, offers an outstanding beach particularly well suited for children and restaurants of all kinds. The house is comfortable and extremely well equipped. A minor quibble: the main bathroom on the first floor serves both as an ensuite for the main bedroom and as a family bathroom. The second bathroom on the ground floor is functional but more limited. Allin all a house to recommend and go back to.
Die Lage der Finca ist hervorragend. Absolut ruhig, mitten in der Natur und trotzdem mit dem Auto nur 5 Minuten von Pollença entfernt.
Der Garten und der Pool sind sehr schön.
Die Vermieter waren jederzeit erreichbar und waren bei den Check-In und Check Out-Zeiten unkompliziert und entgegenkommend.
Wir haben unseren Urlaub sehr genossen.
We stayed here this July/August and were really excited after the reviews and pictures. On arrival it was clear that the property was once a loved family home, sadly however the property no longer feels like it has any care or attention given to it. There are loose paving stones, dodgy cookers just to begin! The electrics are actually a liability and need sorting out! the landing light "fizzes" strongly suggesting loose wiring! the main trip circuit board has a post it note on stating how to reset the electrics in case of power failure. YOU WILL NEED TO LEARN TO USE THIS LOTS! Every time we used more than one appliance (dishwasher and microwave for example) the power cut out! this happened 2-4 times a day on average and was problematic! We went out one day leaving the washing machine and dishwasher on only to arrive back to no power and a warmed fridge! I brought this to teh attention of hte owner who said "Okay. Thanks for letting me know. We will consider it."
Our stay was for two weeks, during this time we on ly had the pool cleaned once (which given the number of local insects and leaves that seemed to love a swim) was not really great as although we happily skim the top with a net, the floor was covered in foliage! The pool itself was cloudy by the end of the two weeks and really needed a bit of care!
After our first week we asked about replacement bedding and towel, something which is a given in villa rental, and we were answered with "Hello, We don't usually change the sheets if the stay is less than 15 days. But no problem, on Monday we will go to put new towels and sheets. What time is the best to leave the house free for a couple of hours? Thank you. " so be mindful if you want fresh bedding and are not there for months you need to ask!
ANTS!! oh my days ANTS! I have never seen so many ants in my life! I have been to villas and indeed owned one historically in Mallorca and understand ants are a a part of life but this place is next level! they were everywhere ! I mean everywhere! deep through the veins of the house, we found them in the underwear drawers in two of the rooms! in the lounge, the bathrooms up and down and outside we were spraying killer every hour or so! this made outdoor eating a nightmare and sadly we seldom did so due to this!
Wij hebben een heerlijk verblijf gehad. Onze kinderen vonden het zo fijn dat ze eigenlijk heel de dag bij het huis bleven. Heerlijk zwemmen, in de tuin spelen en savonds lekker bbqen! We komen zeker terug! De omgeving en het uitzicht zijn prachtig!
We were warmly greeted by Xavier and his daughter on arival. The villa is very spacious and well equipped, with everything we needed for our month-long stay. The peaceful, rural, location suited us ideally. We enjoy walking and there were various short walks we could do straight from the door, while the centre of Pollensa is about thirty minutes away on foot. The icing on the cake was the exceptional weather: one of the warmest Februaries on record, I believe, and in marked contrast to the same month the previous year. We are very regular visitors to Pollensa and would happily stay here again.
mit etwas mehr Pflege könnte es ein schönes Urlaubsdomizil sein
positiv fanden wir:
- die Lage ist ruhig und doch ist man schnell in der Stadt, an den StrÀnden oder anderen Ausflugszielen
- das Haus bietet genug Platz fĂŒr 6 Personen mit RĂŒckzugsorten und auch das GrundstĂŒck ist groĂ genug fĂŒr Spiel und Spass
- der Pool war sauber und wir haben die Erfrischung genossen
- der Kontakt mit der Vermieterin hat gut geklappt, bei Problemen und Fragen war sie schnell zur Stelle und hat sich bemĂŒht, die Probleme zu beheben
- da wir sehr spĂ€t angereist sind, hatte sie uns Wasser, Wein und ein paar Sachen zum FrĂŒhstĂŒcken bereit gestellt, das fanden wir sehr nett
nicht so schön:
- das Haus hat etwas Renovierungsstau, durch die alte Bauweise ist viel Feuchtigkeit in den WĂ€nden und im Wohnzimmer und Schlafzimmer ist Schimmel an der Wand. Das fanden wir mit Kleinkind nicht sehr angenehm.
- insgesamt wirkte das Haus ungepflegt und nicht besonders sauber, der Kinderhochstuhl war voller Schimmel, die Sicherungsgurte mussten wir erstmal grĂŒndlich reinigen vor der ersten Benutzung (hier hat sicherlich keiner mal vor der Vermietung nach dem Rechten geschaut)
One of the loveliest properties we've ever stayed in
We didn't pick the best week for our holiday weather-wise, but that's life: no one can control for that. However, the property was spacious, beautifully clean, very well kept and the outside space was an absolute delight. Located just outside of Pollensa, this property offers the best of both worlds: peace and tranquility at the house and all the facilities of the town within walking distance. A big thank you to Margarita who was very welcoming and helpful.
