Brilliant holiday in villa in Alaro
This villa where we have stayed twice before is wonderful! Clean with great amenities including aircon. Lorenzo is always so friendly and welcoming and Hortensia who deals with bookings is always very quick to reply. Gentle 10 min stroll to the square which has a variety of bars and restaurants - we’ll be back!

Lovely house in a great location
Perfect for a short late summer trip to revisit some of the wonderful roads on our bikes.
Clean and spacious with the added bonus of a pool to relax in after a hot day in the saddle.
The only improvement we'd suggest making is a house manual, there's a lot to take on-board during the introduction.

Lovely stay in rural setting on edge of small town
Communication was very good from start to finish. Greeted at the property on arrival with instructions and a wonderful cake and jam. The house sits on the outskirts of Alaro, a lovely little town with a bakery and restaurants. The square is a fun place to be on Saturday; the morning has a lovely little market, in the evening after dinner dancing it becomes a meeting place with the locals, music and dancing. The house itself is very clean and comfortable and is a peaceful base from which to explore, whether on bike or in car. The pool is a welcome addition in the heat when having a relaxing day. We enjoyed our stay here and would definately recommend.

Wonderful holiday home
This house is about as perfect as it gets! Everything you need is here including air conditioning - essential after last week when we were there. 5-7 min stroll to the lovely Alaro square. Great service from Hortense at Fincas Hortense and the owner Lorenzo. Our second time here and we’ll certainly go back - but please can we gave some mirrors in the bedrooms?

The house exceeded our expectation in many ways
Very well equipped & comfortable for us all.. A lot of space both indoors & out.
Parking is not easy in Alaro, so the fact the house has plenty of space is a big bonus.
Proved to be a great base for our cycle trips out.
The town itself has a lot of character with plenty of choices for eating out..
Kitchen is also well equipped, should you decide to eat in.
Towels ( indoor & out ) provided. Bed Linen provided.
Dishwasher & Washing machine both worked very well.
Property does have air conditioning.

Lovely villa approximately 10 minutes walk from the centre of Alaro
Alaro is a pretty, hillside town with a wide choice of bars and restaurants within walking distance of the villa. The villa has everything needed for a comfortable and enjoyable holiday , including table tennis, barbecue and indoor games. A car is a must for visiting other parts of the island. Alaro is a convenient centre for exploring, especially the north of the island. Thank you to Lorenzo's wife who baked an absolutely delicious cake for us! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend this villa without hesitation.

Wonderful, authentic Mallorca country house on the edge of a lovely town
The house was perfect and had plenty in door and out door space. The owner was absolutely lovely and presented us with homemade cake and jam. He gave advice on local restaurants and a bakers which sold fabulous bread and savoury pastries. We would recommend this house to anyone who wanted to experience the real Mallorca and the wonderful hospitality.

Comments on our stay at Fincas Hortensia, Alaro, Mallorca July 2018.
A lovely Villa set on the edge of the quaint Mallorcan town of Alaro.
The villa was very comfortable and clean with a pleasant welcome from the owner Lorrenzo who provided us with a lovely homemade welcome lemon cake upon our arrival and fresh locally grown plums.
The villa was very spacious for our party of four. It would be a little tight were 8 adults to stay there, more suitable for 4-6 adults or maybe two families with younger children in our opinion.
It was equipped with a lovely pool that was self maintained. Also plenty of parking space for 3-4 vehicles if required.
A lovely fruit orchard as part of the grounds and generally plenty of outside living space.
There was a more than ample supply of crockery, cutlery and glasses but could do with more cooking pots and pans.
It may also be beneficial to have mirrors in the bedrooms maybe attached to the inside of the wardrobe doors for example, an observation by the ladies of our party.
Lastly the barbecue had seen better days and was on its last legs, rusty and not very inviting to use.
A new Barbecue and or Paella gas ring, stand, pan and bottle would have been useful.
However, we very much enjoyed our stay and would certainly recommend Fincas Hortensia.
Alaro itself is a lovely small town, very Mallorcan with a nice family feel and plenty of nice restaurants to enjoy the local food and wine. The town is around 20 minutes drive to Inca and around 25 minutes drive into Palma. 35-40 Euros by taxi to or from Palma. There is only one local taxi service in Alaro so one would need to book it in advance. The telephone number is advertised at the petrol station on the right coming into Alaro.

Lovely house in a great location
Well equipped and very comfortable house on the edge of Alaro - just a short stroll to the square. Air conditioning was a real treat. Owner was very helpful and fixed the one and only problem we had with the hot water the same day. Seeing the Red Kite hawk overhead each day was a bonus! Would highly recommend this house.

Perfect Oasis
With a warm welcome from Lorenzo we felt like we were being treated to a stay in is home. The fresh cake baked by his wife, the impeccably clean house and the orchard of walnut, fig and citrus trees all combined to make our stay wonderful.
Alaro’s central location in the Serra Transmuntana was a bonus we didn’t realize until we arrived. It made travel to all the wonderful hiking areas much easier. Alaro itself was a wonderful quite town that had all the services we needed; grocery store, restaraunts and coffee shops.
Highly recommended for its location, the wonderful house and pool, the prompt correspondence, the attention to detail, and of course the wonderful landlord.

Wonderful taste of Spanish life with everything you need for an amazing family holiday
Our stay was wonderful. The villa is everything as described and more. We were welcomed by a delicious homemade cake and jam made by the wife of the owner and told we could pick the fruit from the huge orchard of lemon, lime, pear and many more trees. The kids loved exploring for lizards and using the pool - perfect size for young children and for our 2 families. We were impressed with the facilities in the house with so much room, plenty of glasses for Cava and more! Lots of shade you could pick different areas throughout the day and wander into Alaro town just a 5 minute walk away. We were luckily to be part of their annual arts festival with life music, dance and family events a world away from the usual tourist spots on the island. The Saturday market was lovely and there were plenty of beaches within 50 mins drive. We will certainly recommend to others and would love to come back. Thank you for a fantastic holiday!

Great place, quiet and relaxing and only a short strole into town.
The property was clean and comfortable with great outdoor spaces to eat and relax by the pool. It's set amoungst fruit trees and only a short walk from Alaro, which is quiet but has enough restaurants and cafes to choose from. A good base to cycle from and a lovely pool to relax in at the end of the day.

Tolles Haus in guter Lage
Unser Aufenthalt war sehr gut. Die Lage des Objektes ist gut für Urlauber, die Wandern wollen. Auch sonst erreichtman von dort aus viele sehenswerte Orte auf Mallorca. Das Haus ist sehr gut ausgestattet und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Im Ort Alaro gibt es alles, was man für den täglichen Bedarf benötigt und das Zentrum ist in kurzer Zeit zu Fuß zu erreichen. Also rundum alles da, was man braucht. Der Vermieter schaut regelmäßig vorbei um den Pool in Schuss zu halten. Das macht er sehr dezent und er ist mit freundlichem Gruß wieder schnell verschwunden. Auch die Mitarbeiterin von fewo-direkt war sehr freundlich und stets gut erreichbar, wenn Fragen aufkamen. Vielen Dank dafür.

Huset har allt man behöver och ligger i en liten mysig by med trevliga restauranger, lite turister. Nära till bergskedjan och ett Mekka för cyklister. Endast 30min med bil till både Palma och Alcudia. Lätta att åka till en större strand men även skönt att stanna vid poolen vissa dagar. Rekommenderas varmt.

Erholsame Oase in wunderschönem Ort
Der Ort Alaro hat sehr viel Charme und ist weit weg von den Touristengegenden. Das Haus ist umgeben von einem Obstgarten und sehr ruhig gelegen. Von dort kann man unkompliziert Touren mit dem Auto zu den Stränden im Norden machen oder in die Berge fahren. Palma ist 25 Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt. Es lässt sich auch sehr gut am Haus entspannen und im sauberen Pool schwimmen. Wir konnten uns gut erholen und würden das Haus das nächste Mal wieder buchen. Der Besitzer hat uns alles gut erklärt und war sehr freundlich. Vielen Dank für den schönen Aufenthalt!
