Sa Vinya caught our eye two years ago while staying at another villa, during one of our frequent treks to the beautiful Cales Coves. (It's opposite the gate at the entrance to the 'Cami de Cavalls' and not as shown on Holiday Lettings' map). We 'Googled' the villa's name, found it was available to rent and booked almost immediately upon our return. We were unable to book for the following year as it was already reserved for the dates we required. However, it was well worth the wait as it proved to be all we'd hoped - and much more. Upon entering the villa, it was obvious that it's not just a commercial let, but the family's treasured holiday home, with so many imaginative personal touches, both inside and out. The outside space is amazing, with innumerable plants and ornaments and areas that provide shade when required. We stayed for three weeks and by the end of the holiday, we were still discovering things we'd not previously noticed! The covered dining area in the far corner of the garden was excellent and we were even able to have a barbecue on a rainy day! Equally, the terrace adjoining the villa was a wonderful place to relax. Half of it has been enclosed to form a conservatory/garden room and this proved invaluable as a dining area and place to enjoy drinks (including a lovely bottle of cava provided for our arrival) on cooler evenings. The roof terrace provided superb views towards the coves and retained the sun until late afternoon.
To qualify the title of this review, we had hoped to book for next year but have again been thwarted by the villa's popularity, so we'd selfishly like it to be less in demand, although we ultimately had to give it the review it deserves! Thanks Uta and family, for a thoroughly enjoyable stay!
