We stayed 10 nights in Rubi's lovely duplex apartment in early April. The apartment has a good sized lounge, 1 small bathroom upstairs and another family bathroom downstairs. It has 2 good sized bedrooms. The kitchen is very well equipped with a toaster, microwave, oven, hob and lots of utensils. There is no dish washer.
The apartment is air conditioned in the lounge and both bedrooms. Aircon also serves as heating. We were in the apartment in early April and never cold.
We had one small issue with the air conditioning that Rubi came out for and then checked again the day after to see if everything was OK. Very impressive.
There are some nice views from the sunny balconies over Cala Ferrera beach and the Mediterranean. The apartment has a large well maintained shared swimming pool (estimate 10m x 4m) The pool is not heated so in April it's still quite cold.
Overall the apartment is in a great location, walking distance to everything.
There are sunbeds on the balconies and a table and chairs, as well as a parasol. There is free street parking available. The apartment has great internet connectivity (seems like a must almost nowadays with kids).
The beach is about 2 minutes walk away. You'll have to go down approximately 54 steps and you'll end up on Cala Ferrera Beach which is a small beach, very suitable for kids as the slope into the sea is nice and gradual.
On the beach is a mooring point for the "Starfish" boat, which is a small ferry boat to ferry to different parts of the island.
Cala Ferrara is walking distance to Cala D'Or (about 5 - 10 minutes) where there are lots of lovely restaurants situated around a square. There are also supermarkets and various shops selling all sorts of things. There's also the "mini tren" (a small electric train) that goes through Cala D'or to the Marina. The Cala D'Or Marina is about 15 - 20 minutes walking (we have 2 young kids) and is very nice and has a calm feel about it. There are some lovely restaurants serving all types of Cuisine. Restaurant "the "the Old West" serves some great spare ribs (even the kidsâ portions are massive) and was one of our kids favourite.
If you fancy an English breakfast then you can get that in Cala D'or or there are some places in the Marina serving it, however it's not lost its Spanish touch, which is nice.
We had a great stay in Rubi's apartment and while we generally don't go to the same place twice, we would consider coming back to this apartment.
Muchos Gracias Rubi.
