About this property

VILLA RAFALS - JEWEL IN THE MIDST OF NATURE

Chalet Els Rafals is an authentic Mallorcan villa set in a privileged location in the Serra de Tramuntana, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.



Surrounded by nature and with open mountain views, it offers privacy, tranquillity and a genuine experience in the heart of the mountains.



The house, with a rustic style and traditional character, is distributed over two floors. On the ground floor there is a spacious living-dining area, a second lounge with satellite TV and international channels, and free WiFi. The traditional Mallorcan-style kitchen is fully equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. This floor also features a twin bedroom with en-suite bathroom and an additional bathroom with shower.



On the upper floor there are three more bedrooms: two double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and a twin bedroom with a private bathroom. All bedrooms are equipped with hot/cold air conditioning (scheduled from 9:00 pm to 8:00 am and from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm).



Outside, you will find a porch with a pleasant sitting area and outdoor dining space. From here you can access the swimming pool and sunbathing area, ideal for relaxing while enjoying the views. Next to the kitchen there is a stone barbecue with an outdoor dining area.



The property is located on an extensive private estate in the La Rafal area, around 15 minutes by car from the old town of Pollença, a charming village with restaurants, cafés and its well-known Sunday market. Puerto de Pollença and Cala Sant Vicenç are about 20 minutes away, offering crystal-clear beaches, beautiful coves and options for water sports.



A car is recommended to explore the surrounding area and discover the beauty of the Serra de Tramuntana.

Chalet Els Rafals is an ideal choice for those looking to switch off in a unique natural setting without giving up comfort and authenticity.

Lovely villa

Large villa with, lot of space inside and outside. Lovely pool en well eqiuped kitchen. Behind the house is a olive barn. The owner gives us a tour. The fundaments are from the year 1050. Amazing to walk aroun there.

A villa with character and a beautiful view

The villa has a lot of character and a beautiful outdoorspace with a wonderful openview on the mountains . It's rustic as you should expect from a historic building but clean and well maintained. It is a 15 minutes drive from Pollensa. The beds were ok but can have thicker matrasses.

Es war perfekt und wir konnten die Natur in absoluter Ruhe und Stille genießen!!! Als kleine Idee: Eine elektronische O-Saft Presse würde beim nächsten Aufenthalt sicherlich die Krone aufsetzen. Herzlichen Dank für die schöne Zeit!

Ein sehr entspannter Urlaub

Die Lage (ca. 5 Km von der Hauptstrasse der Stadt Pollenca in die Nähe des Tramuntana-Gebirges) ist etwas abgelegen und lädt sehr zum erholsamen Aufenthalt ein. Wir haben die Lage sehr genossen. Die erste Anfahrt wirkt etwas rustikal. Je öfter man die Strecke zurück legt, wirkt alles normal. Eine sehr schöne und saubere Finka. Wir werden bestimmt wiederkommen.

Très bon séjour entre amis dans une maison très agréable avec un très beau décor

Nous avons passer un très bon séjour dans cette agréable maison au très beau décor cependant la maison est difficile d'accès et nécessite une voiture. Des nids de guêpes étaient présents et auraient nécessité une extermination.

Unterkunft für Abenteurer :-( Finger weg!

Es erfolgt keine Übergabe vor Ort. Das Haus ist generell muffig/miefig im Haus u. wurde unzureichend gereinigt. Der Innenbereich stellt sich in Wirklichkeit bei Weitem nicht so dar, wie es die Bilder mutmaßen lassen. Die Küche ist unzureichend bestückt. Es fehlt an allerlei Equipment, um eine vernünftige Selbstversorgung sicherzustellen. Überdies dürfte sich ein Ameisenbau im Unterbau der Holzküche befinden. Die Zimmer entsprechen nicht der Beschreibung. Das Schlafzimmer neben der Küche ist kein Zimmer. Das dürfte früher wohl die Speisekammer gewesen sein (keine Fenster - 2m²). Das Schlafzimmer im Erdgeschoss ist ebenfalls sehr klein und mit zwei Feldbetten Kategorie Bundeswehr bestückt, hat aber ein winziges Fenster. Zwei Schlafzimmer im 1. Stock hatten ebenfalls Minifenster und waren mit zwei Standventilatoren bestückt. Einer davon jedoch defekt. Das zusätzliche Zweibettzimmer war nicht zu verwenden, da es wiederum keine Fenster hatte. Der Wasserdruck des mittleren Badezimmers im OG war schwach, sodass duschen nur mit sehr viel Geduld möglich war. Die Beschreibung: „jedes Zimmer ist mit großen Ventilator ausgestattet“ ist irreführend. Man muss dazu sagen, dass wir zu einer Zeit dort waren, wo es sehr heiß war. Das bedeutet, das Haus hat keinerlei Isolierung und es fehlt an jeglichem Komfort. Die Zimmer im OG sind nahezu unbelüftet. Es war unerträglich heiß, sodass schlafen nahezu unmöglich war (Zimmertemperaturen von bis zu 34°). Der Außenbereich ist nett. Die Pumpe des Pools ist mit einer Zeitschaltuhr bestückt, die nicht manuell bedient werden kann. Die Zeitschaltuhr der Pumpe läuft nur alle drei Tage. Das Wasser ist somit nach einem heißen Tag bereits am Kippen. Am Ende des zweiten Tages hat man bereits Bedenken, dass das Wasser ev. Bakterien enthält, die die Gesundheit der Kinder gefährden könnte. Hinzu kam, dass in unmittelbarer Nähe des Pools unzählige Wespennester angesiedelt sind. Die Tiere sind im gesamten Außenbereich permanent präsent und natürlich war nach kurzer Zeit der Pool mit unzähligen toten Tieren überdeckt, die jedoch nicht von den Filter aufgenommen werden konnten, da die Pumpe nicht lief. Die unzähligen Wespen machten überdies einen Konsum etwaiger Speisen und Getränke im Außenbereich unmöglich. . Zusammenfassend muss ich leider sagen, dass wir zutiefst enttäuscht sind von der Unterkunft. Ich hatte bisher nicht annähernd eine solche Bruchbude. Selbst für erfahrene Campingurlauber wäre ein Aufenthalt eine Herausforderung.

Dreckig, ungepflegt und zwei Zimmer ohne Fenster

Leider war dieser Urlaub nicht gelungen. Die Finca war unglaublich schmutzig, Haare, tote Insekten.. Alles in der Dusche. Die Betten sind eine Katastrophe. Zwei Räume haben gar kein Fenster. Wir haben schon öfter Finca Urlaub gemacht.. Aber das hier ging gar nicht. Man mochte nichts anfassen. Es gab keinen Kleiderschrank in meinem Zimmer.. Dafür hingen in einer Nische, die staubig war Bügel. Es gab weder Bettwäsche, noch hatte ich eine Bettdecke, die ich hätte beziehen können.. Nur ein Bettlaken.. Das war doch noch ganz schön frisch. Wenn das Wetter schlecht ist mag man sich nicht in diesem Haus aufhalten. Übrigens lassen sich auch die Türen der Zimmer nicht vernünftig schließen.. Dieser Umstand würde schon mal bemängelt. Und somit ist für mich klar, daß es niemanden interessiert, wie bewertet wird. Es wird nur kassiert. Sehr schade!

Rustic Villa in the Mountains

Nice experience in this beautiful location, plenty of nature and very peaceful environment. Still a short drive to Pollensa old town. The villa is ancient (I heard 300 years old from the owner) but nice refurbished inside and with all the equipment needed for a comfortable stay. Nothing

10 schöne Tage!

Wunderschöne alte Finca mit fast historischem Charme. Alles da was man braucht, herrlich abgelegen und ruhig. Anfahrt abenteuerlich aber man gewöhnt sich daran. Wir hatten 10 schöne Tage dort. Bis auf Kleinigkeiten alles top! Wenig Steckdosen, bzw. Mehrfachstecker, Kochgeschirr teils abenteuerlich, Kühlschrank für bis 12 Personen an der Grenze, wenig Schränke... aber das sind Dinge die im Urlaub zu verschmerzen sind, alles in allem ein schönes Haus in toller Lage. Uns hat es gefallen....

Also there were hundreds of mosquitos ..everyone of us bitten. Added to this there were were wasps and two of us were bitten hand had allergic reactions.

Secluded Mallorcan bliss.

We had a fantastic stay here in mid May. The weather was hit and miss and a bit cold to go into the pool but we still managed a few swims. The house is so spacious you could enjoy your time indoors as much as outdoors. With log burners, a pizza oven and plenty of social spaces. Note that you'll need your own speaker as the radio didn't get much signal but the internet reception was great. The house is almost at the end of a long winding lane up the mountain which means it is a bit inconvenient if you are planning to pop in and out but we managed to come down in about 12 minutes to Pollensa town and up I'm 15 minutes of you're a confident driver (not quite the 20 minutes the sat nab indicates). Make sure you follow the sat nab. People following directions made a wrong turn into a dirt track and one got a puncture. Most cars are fine if you follow the right path. The house itself is very authentic and there is lots of charming (sometimes funky) furniture and nooks and crannies. Not too keen on the colourful bright faux flowers and cushions so we hid those for our stay. Our slight disappointment was with the size of the rooms as they look a bit larger in the photos. There are two very spacious ensuites. One sleeps 4 the other sleeps 2. The third double shares a bathroom with a twin room (which only has a skylight as window). Then there's a twin ensuite downstairs. And a small room which could fit two singles (just about) but it only had one single when we were there. This is slightly the short straw (if you use it) as the room is by the kitchen and shares the downstairs loo and also only has a small skylight for a window. However once the bedroom allocation is resolved the place is magical. The secluded location, the vast amount of outdoor areas and seating to chill out and socialize, the views into the steep mountains, and the animals that graze nearby (donkeys and sheep), the lush planting all make for an unforgettable holiday. We also got a masseuse to pop over and relax us. If you're thinking of hiring taxis (found them more economical than mini buses) they do make the trip and works around €36 from Alcudia or €80 to Palma airport. The only downside is you cannot book in advance but they're readily available. As far as beaches Playa Formentor Is a must!! Feels like the Caribbean came to the med. You do have to pay for parking it's about €0.05 per minute but totally worth it when we went it wasn't too busy. We loved everything about it!
