LUX Resorts & Retreats Awards 2024

Jun22596 18 | LUXlife Magazine Boasting the sort of contemporary and yet authentically Mediterranean architecture style that has quickly become synonymous with luxury on this beautiful Spanish island, the innate elegance of Casa Del Puerto begins as soon as a guest steps through the front door. Greeted with a spacious entrance that features a meticulous blend of grandeur and bold, simplistic furniture, the open-plan nature of this property means that the kitchen and dining area can be immediately seen to one’s left and a sizeable reception area to their right. Heading through to the modern family kitchen, guests can expect to find an open space complete with an island that houses the Smeg gas cooker and hob, with plenty of cabinet and worktop space available to prepare meals. Additional stateof-the-art name-brand equipment can be found in every corner of this room – from the Bosch fridge freezer and dishwasher to the Smeg kettle – with a toaster, blender, and coffee machine also available for use. Just outside of this kitchen area is a large rectangular dining table that can comfortably seat eight guests, with this dark wood table and bench complemented nicely by wicker dining chairs and large overhead light shades that hang from the ceiling to a few feet above the table’s surface. This table is far from the only opportunity Casa Del Puerto provides its guests to eat together, as a smaller dining area for four people can be found directly adjacent to the outdoor, brickwork charcoal barbeque that is another standout feature of the property. This outdoor area is also home to a grand terrace of 150 sqm, where six people can enjoy outdoor dining complete with awe-inspiring views of the neighbouring Port de Sóller. The terrace also boasts a number of sunbeds as well as an outdoor lounge space comprised of an L-shaped sofa and matching wooden coffee table. Part of it is covered, which is great for those seeking shelter from Majorca’s beaming sun. Behind this terrace area, a private pool surrounded by shady green trees is the perfect size and shape for doing lengths or simply taking a dip to cool off, and the careful architecture of the pool’s surrounding area allows ample space for sitting and submerging one’s legs, making this the ideal setting to sit and chat or enjoy a refreshing drink. Casa Del Puerto’s pool also boasts encompassing views of the landscape from Jul24085 Best Contemporary Holiday Accommodation 2024 - Majorca Keen holidaymakers in search of a Majorcan villa with a distinct Mediterranean ambiance and picture-perfect views of a neighbouring harbour need look no further than Casa Del Puerto, a contemporary holiday property that features three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a private pool, and Wi-Fi, to name but a few of its wealth of amenities. An approximately 350-sqm house including a huge terrace set on a 500-sqm plot, this stunning accommodation has only recently been renovated for rent and is taking bookings right now. the side where its steps are situated, a view that includes the ocean as well as the island’s famous rolling hills. Going back inside the property itself, the magnificent and fashionable staircase that leads from the entrance up to the first floor is complemented nicely by a chic, metallic handrail and accompanying guardrail that serve as a nice contrast to the brilliant white walls and ceiling and off-white wooden floor that is a constant across the house. These stairs lead first to the master bedroom, a big room featuring a king bed, plenty of storage space, and a number of plug sockets, as well as a connected en suite with a separate walk-in shower. Bedrooms two and three are equally spacious and comfortable, the former being more intimate thanks to its small wooden windows, king bed, and simplistic furniture, at least when compared to the gigantic window of the third bedroom that overlooks the same remarkable views of the harbour that can be enjoyed from the terrace. Bedroom three then has two king beds as opposed to the one bed of the other rooms, one of which is raised and accessible by a small step stool, making it the perfect option for guests with young children looking to share. Aside from the en suite, there is a family bathroom upstairs and another downstairs, offering plenty of space for everyone without losing the closeness that is sought after from a holiday such as this. Beyond this, Casa Del Puerto ticks off more property ‘must-haves’, with separate air conditioning in every room, a dedicated storage room, and a Miele washing machine and dryer, to name just a few. Other amenities not touched on previously include Loewe and LG TVs with Apple TV, an iron and ironing board, and a hair dryer. The full-service approach the team behind Casa Del Puerto employ extends beyond just the house and is seen further in the holistic experience provided by its staff as soon as a booking is made. Once booking is completed, guests can expect to receive detailed information concerning the house itself, directions, as well as a local restaurant guide. All guests will be then greeted on arrival by the house manager, who will welcome to them Majorca before introducing them to the property. A caretaking service is also available if needed, and this manifests itself in other ways too, with the likes of consumables being provided to every
