Resort Description
With arguably the most beautiful setting on the island, villa holidays in Cala’n Porter provide something truly exceptional. Set high on the limestone cliffs overlooking one of the oldest beaches in Menorca, this small resort has everything required for family-fun in the sun. The beach is sheltered by the cliffs making it safe for children to play, and the resort itself includes go-karting, amusement rides and tennis courts. For day trips, the capital Mahón is within easy reach and is home to a pretty harbour and plenty of boutique shops.

Absolutely stunning location and high standard of accommodation. Views to die for and only a 10min stroll into town. Fortunately we didn't have to use the annex as although they had been cleaned the one was very musty with flies. This is probably better later in the season however when it has aired. Overall great villa and would book with Solmar again.

The villa is beautiful with plenty of space and stunning sea views as shown on the website. There are steps to the bedrooms, annexes and pool area but the inside stairs were well lit. We were impressed with the range of crockery, it was nice to have more than 1 plate each as is often the case when self catering! There was also plenty of cutlery and kitchen utensils (although we only found one sharp kitchen knife..) One bedroom in the main villa has no windows and was a bit damp but as our trip was early in May we didn't know if the villa had been unused for a while. The top dining room, with a huge table with 12 seats, was great. The resort has a great range of places to eat and the supermarkets were well stocked with the basics. It was a 15 minute walk with a couple of hills but nothing too taxing. The supermarkets also offered delivery which meant we didn't have to carry the first shop which was very much appreciated. Overall we had a great time, there's plenty of room for 10 adults with space to break into smaller groups if you want. Our group was 4 over 50s and 6 20-30s who all agreed it was a fab villa.

Pool area was lovely with gorgeous views and plenty of sun beds and seating, very private, main villa views are stunning again with plenty of seating, plenty of balconies with netting which was a god send as we had 3 children 5 and under. Air conditioning was a welcome addition to all rooms.

I have used Solmar Villas in the past but, this was, by far, the best villa I've ever stayed in. Plenty of room, great facilities and the most magnificent views.

This villa is breathtaking. The size is enormous and the views unbelievable. Only trouble was the air con In The main living room was very temperamental and would not work all the time when needed. Also the room underneath the balcony Infront of the pool had a damp smell all week. Would definitely recommend other than that. Thanks for a great holiday

The view from the villa is amazing! The facilities are like we would have at home. Location to the town and cove were ideal. We would highly recommend staying here and probably will again ourselves.

Alta Mar is a dream holiday villa with views to match. Cala en Porter is a small but good location with supermarkets and very good restaurants. The beach is very close to this villa and worth a visit but a car is essential.the one thing about

Beautiful villa with stunning views. There were only three of us in a villa designed for ten, so we didn't use large sections of the villa. The villa is private, quiet and comfortable. We hired a car this time due to the location but hardly used it as it's only 10 mins or so to the shops and restaurants, and supermarkets will deliver. There are quite a few steps inside and around the villa but this is accurately detailed in the description. Each bedroom has its own en suite and air con. Pool is unheated and cool in October but would imagine it would be a little more bearable in warmer months but a good size, well kept and clean. Overall, a lovely holiday and as usual, didn't want to come home!

The villa was huge, with the most spectacular views. Villa Alta Mar is wonderful but not suitable for small children or anyone with a disability due to steps all around the villa. As we had a two year old with us this was challenging.

We loved the villa as it worked v well for our group. We found the bedrooms to be in overall good order though perhaps the furniture and decor slightly tired in ol places. We like to cook fresh and bbq everyday so Kitchen could do with a set of sharp knives as they were quite hard work And also the bbq grill doesn’t fit the brickwork making it difficult to use safely - we had to balance it , open, precariously across the top , which took longer and also risked falling and knocking the coals out, so not ideal.

This villa was absolutely outstanding and went far beyond our expectations. When we entered we ran around screaming because the view was unbelievably beautiful. You get the best view of the sunset here, even better than the view from the nearby popular caves bar. It has everything you could wish for, lots of space and multiple places to enjoy meals or drinks, all with an outstanding view. We felt like queens in a palace during our stay - it truly was paradise. The location was excellent - the beach is a short walk away and shops, restaurants and bars are all within walking distance. I highly recommend this villa and am desperate to return next year.
