Villa Galdana Palms - Cala Galdana, Menorca, Balearic Islands

A short walk from the pretty resort centre of Cala Galdana with its beautiful cove, this enchanting villa enjoys an elevated position on the edges of the countryside and lovely views out over a pine-clad ?baranco? or dry river valley, giving it a distinct rural charm.

Occupying a spacious plot, its well-maintained gardens sweep around three sides and are planted with mature, shade-giving palms, making them perfect for basking in the sunshine or dozing in the cool on hot summer afternoons. A barbecue and enticing pool provide further attractions, tempting you to spend your time in the garden drinking in the views and tranquillity.

Set over one floor, the interiors of the villa are friendly, fresh and modern with a large, bright sitting-dining room furnished in eclectic modern and traditional style, an open-plan kitchen and pleasant bedrooms. Doors lead onto the covered front terrace, which offers refuge from the sun and an attractive space for enjoying barbecue-cooked meals.

Set in a small complex, the villa is superbly positioned for local facilities with bars and restaurants close by, yet also perfect for walkers and explorers as a nearby track leads to some beautiful coastal and country footpaths. Due to its elevated position, it may not be suitable for the less mobile.
