Peaceful villa among the lemon groves of Soller
Sa Frontera is an Mallorcan old stone house which has been tastefully modernised so that it keeps its charm but is also functional. The layout is interesting with one bedroom on each of the first and second floors. There is also a living area which has a bed. There is an extensive dining area outside which is permanently in the shade (v necessary). The house is surrounded by citrus trees and is very convenient for Soller. There are many paths near the house which make for pleasant walking, particularly in the evening.
We arrived rather later than expected and were welcomed with great warmth and efficiency by a member of staff from the agency as well as the owner who has also provided lots of information in the form of leaflets etc.
We would certainly recommend Sa Frontera. It is suitable for families and mixed groups
We may be a bit eccentric in that we like to cook a lot, rather than eating out every night. So a dishwasher would have been a bonus and I could imagine some clients being a little surprised that there isn't one. The kitchen is adequately stocked but a few more glasses, plates and a wider range of pots and pans would help a lot.
I could also see some clients being a bit confused by the fact that electricity is extra. This isn't completely clear in the correspondence and should be more clearly spelt out. It might help to give an idea of an 'average' weekly bill, otherwise clients might live in fear of having a massive bill at the end on the holiday. We didn't but we have never had to pay for electricity before and we have stayed in a lot of places in Spain, France, Italy, Portugal etc.
