Accessibility
The villa is a good option for disabled people. Please note however there are 3 steps to get to the entrance of the house, 3 steps to the bedrooms and a step-down and step-up to access the pool from the driveway. There is a ramp to avoid the entrance steps but may be too narrow for some wheelchairs. The villa has had a disabled guest on many occasions, who is not fully wheelchair bound, and who is very satisfied with the facilities.
Outside
There is a private rectangular pool situated right in front of the house. It has a shallow end and a deep end. It has lights that can be switched on when it gets dark. The pool is surrounded by a collonade of balustrades. There is a large garden which is much loved. It has very old palms and cacti and other native plants growing happily. There is a sunny private patio on the side of house next to the built-in barbeque. It is an ideal place to relax with dinner in the evenings. There are lots of plastic sun loungers and chairs which can be moved to your chosen position. The terrace offers a lot of cool shade if you don't fancy the sunny patio and pool areas.
Coast/Beach
There is an award winning sandy beach approx 5-7 minutes drive away from the villa. The water is clean and clear with a shallow gradient making it ideal for children, elderly and disabled people. The beautiful fishing village of Fornells is approx 15 minutes drive away. Fornells offers a variety of water sports: windsurfing, sailing and water-skiing. You can come here to fish or simply head to the top quality seafood restaurants and admire the boats and passers-by.
Golf
The golf course is a 7 minute drive from the villa. You can view parts of it from the terrace. The course includes a driving range and a clubhouse with restaurant and bar. There are also tennis facilities on the complex. Golf Son Parc is a championship quality course and is ideal for beginners and experienced golfers alike. It is a full 18 hole course. Originally it was much smaller. The extensions made to bring it up to 18 holes were designed by Dave Thomas Golf Ltd, owned by the ex Ryder Cup player and designer of many top courses worldwide, such as The Belfry courses and San Roque on the Costa del Sol. The course is challenging and picturesque. Around the course are wooded hills and a protected wet zone with a rich variety of bird life. A special feature of the golf course is a flock of golf-enthusiast peacocks that live just behind the green. Please contact Golf Son Parc for further details.

Guest comments
A wonderful place to retreat and relax. Very private and peaceful and good value for money. The kitchen is extremely well equipped and we very much enjoyed fresh fish from the market cooked on the barbeque. The swimming pool is a magnet. - Edwin Lugtenburg
