Can Barraquer Overview
If you’re looking for a big villa with a lot of character, look no further than four bedroom Can Barraquer. Built in that gorgeous, rustic Spanish style, the villa is accessed via a grand driveway, giving you the feeling that you really have arrived.
Bordered by mature gardens with fruit trees and flowering bushes, Can Barraquer exudes Spanish flair both inside and out. The pool has been gated for the safety of little ones. It sits within a sandstone deck with an open kitchen off to one side. With a passion for cooking outdoors, it’s a luxury to have this fire-pit BBQ and pizza oven with easy dining benches in the garden.
Like a country farmhouse inside, Can Barraquer is welcoming, with cosy sofas, indoor dining and four generous bedrooms. Decked out in natural linens with wooden beamed ceilings, the bedrooms are reminiscent of a cottage.
The villa is positioned set back from the road that links the charming, old town of Pollensa and the superb beaches of Puerto Pollensa. There are a several restaurants and a large supermarket within walking distance and the beaches, bars and restaurants of Puerto Pollensa and Cala San Vincente are nearby. Pollensa Golf Course is also just a few minutes’ drive away.
Mobility Statement: There are two steps to access the villa's main entrance and two steps from the villa to the rear terrace. There is one further step up to the barbeque area and another onto the raised non-slip pool surround. The ground floor is spacious and an ensuite bedroom can be accessed externally via patio doors. However, all internal doors are standard width.
*Please note that a pool fence surrounds the whole pool*
*For environmental and energy savings, this villa has timed air conditioning to ensure you have air conditioning during the middle of the day and throughout the night.

The villa had a lot of potential with plenty of family friendly space. Even with 6 adults and 3 children. The resort is wonderful with good beaches and lovely restaurants.

Fabulous grounds! My 2 year old grandson just loved the "holiday villa" and had a lovely time running around and playing with his ball. Great location, so close to both Pollensa and Puerto Pollensa and all the lovely restaurants they have to offer. Great fridge freezer in the kitchen and crockery and utensils a-plenty! Just disappointed that the restaurant next door wasn't open, perhaps we could have been informed of that. No mention of it in the overview of the property. A seasonal thing I guess. However, we had a lovely lovely holiday in Can Barraquer!

The villa and its grounds are extremely spacious with various outdoor seating and entertaining areas, plenty of sun loungers and close to the nearby supermarket and only short drives or cycle to Pollenca or Port de Pollenca.

Family friendly. Perfect for 3 generations, particularly elder seasoned ' fussy' travellors. The gated pool, allowed us to relax with 15 and 32 month old toddlers. A restaurant next door was a huge bonus - we visited 3 times. We are considering booking villa again - soon.

Great location, cleverly set back from a busy road so you had easy access to the whole island (especially the supermarkets!) but you are not aware of its close proximity because of the impressively long driveway. The setting was breathtaking, with a fantastic view of the mountains from the pool. No shortage of tables and chairs so can choose where to dine according to the time of day and meal. Every aspect was family friendly for all three generations - right down to the restaurant next door.

The villa and its surrounding grounds are beautiful. The rooms in the villa are spacious and nicely decorated. The pool is lovely and there is lots of space for the kids to play. The location is also great with a short drive to pollensa old town, surrounding beaches and the port. There is a lovely family restaurant next door and the supermarkets are a 1 min drive away which is very handy.

The villa and its surrounding grounds are beautiful. The rooms in the villa are spacious and nicely decorated. The pool is lovely and there is lots of space for the kids to play. The location is also great with a short drive to pollensa old town, surrounding beaches and the port. There is a lovely family restaurant next door and the supermarkets are a 1 min drive away which is very handy. There were some issues with the villa but please don't let them put you off as they are definitely not major problems but i feel i have to mention them. The family bathroom upstairs was nice and the master bedroom ensuite is massive but it has a bath/shower thats laughably small. The shower in the downstairs ensuite is also tiny. For the money we definitely felt that the showers were not good enough. There was also no light bulbs in the downstairs toilet. The kitchen door that led outside did not lock properly which meant i had to put something up against it when we went out but it did have a metal shutter which did lock so wasn't so bad. There is no air con in the bedrooms which means it can get quite hot but they did provide lots of fans and the lady did say they are putting air con in the bedrooms ready for next season. In previous villas we have stayed in we have always had a welcome basket with a few essentials when we arrive but when we arrived here there was nothing, no toilet paper, no drinking water, no cleaning materials or products which we thought was a little strange. We arrived late so this was a bit annoying. Also, good luck figuring out which switches turn on which lights. Despite these minor problems, i would stay there again as the pros definitely outweighed the cons. hopefully this feedback will help the owners make little changes and make this villa a perfect holiday home.

The villa is great. All rooms in the house are very spacious and the villa is very well maintained. It can be chilly in the evening depending on the time of the year (we were there in April) and the swimming pool is not heated. If you want a quite place to relax with the family, this is a perfect place. The views are great as well. It's a short drive for nice beaches (15 / 20 min) and has 2 supermarkets very near to it. Definitely recommend and I would love to go back to this villa during summer.

The property was beautiful and set in well kept grounds. The villa was a short drive to Port Pollensa and there is a lovely family run restaurant next door serving delicious traditional Mallorcan cuisine. The villa is just off of the main road which means access into and out of the property can be difficult and the traffic noise was still noticeable at night.

We were very impressed with Solmar Villas and how they organised our whole holiday. They were very organised, prompt at getting back to us when we had any queries.
