We visited the Riconet villa in Cala Sant Vincenc, Mallorca. The Simpson app was very useful throughout and we were impressed with the level of communication on this holiday. The villa was excellent, as was the location. Everything thing we needed was there. Amanda, our rep, was very helpful and only too happy to answer our many questions. The instructions to drive to and from the airport was detailed and very helpful as we had never been to the island before. We were very happy with Simpson Travel and intend using them again in the future.

We have had the most fabulous week spent at the Raconet. Our first time spent on the island of Mallorca, and not our last. Having enjoyed exploring this island, Villa Raconet has been a great base. A luxurious space, indoor and out. Nice to have met Sebastian, Joana and Amanda on our stay here, and many thanks.

Brilliant customer service from start to finish - both in the UK and Mallorca. Villa Raconet was beautiful and provided everything required including a great welcome basket adapted to our dietary requirements. The owners were very pleasant and the pool and the villa were cleaned halfway through the week which was welcomed. We will certainly use Simpson Travel again.

We loved the villa, beautifully presented, great furnishings and everything we needed (and more) was available. With a teething toddler we didn’t venture far, but the pool and surroundings in the outside area provided both sun, shade and amusement. We had a lovely week and will certainly use Simpson Travel again as the whole experience was seamless. Many thanks to Amanda for her help and the enormous food basket catering for all of our varied dietary needs.

Our eighth/ninth visit to Mallorca/Menorca but our first in last decade! Lots of changes, much smarter, more cosmopolitan, more buildings – and busy for June! Outside/kitchen well equipped, had several BBQs, pool area great, half in shade. Thank you. Will definitely recommend.

Last minute booking through Simpson Travel, what a good find, they were so helpful from start to finish. Amanda came to visit us and was very informative, friendly and welcoming. Lovely villa, very clean, well equipped, great to have a mid-week towel change. A lovely holiday.

We had a great week here, in this lovely comfortable villa. We can second all the previous recommendations. We also did the sunrise dolphin trip with Alcudia Sea Explorer - worth getting up early for the 6am start! Many thanks to Amanda and the team for all the support and warm welcome.

We’ve absolutely loved our stay at Villa Raconet – what a beautiful house! So peaceful, comfortable & well equipped. We’ve enjoyed exploring from here too – the Sunday market at Consell – flea market, and the general markets at Pollença. Port de Pollença has a plethora of children playgrounds. The train from Palma to Sóller is a must. Thank you Amanda for being incredible & helpful! It’s been perfect.

Our 9th Simpson Travel holiday, 6th time in Mallorca, first tine at this villa. We've had another fantastic time. Lots of downtime and rest which was needed! We went to our usual beach at Can Picafort, market day in Pollensa on Sunday always a must and try to book the fresh water pool at Es Guix. As far as the villa itself goes - excellent. It was great to have so much space.

What a lovely, easy home to stay in. Quiet and relaxing which was just what we wanted and needed. Two weeks have flown by much too quickly. We want to thank Simpson Travel, Amanda and the owners of this lovely home. We have had a wonderful stay.

Lovely villa, which is well designed for both shade and sun. We enjoyed our stay very much, but the week passed very quickly. Pollença is a lovely town, which we enjoyed walking round. We made extensive use of the pool whilst at the villa and walked to the beach to swim in the evening when it was quieter.
Karen, Sophie & Millie

Lovely villa, very stylish, clean and comfortable. Thank you Simpson for all the goodies and Amanda, so helpful, felt relaxed knowing your were available!

We have stayed in some lovely places in Mallorca with Simpsons but villa Raconet was definite 'wow' when we arrived. Straight away felt at home and very happy! The house is done in such a classy way - mixing new with old touches. The outside area is fabulous with nice seating areas and plants. There is a very nice restaurant within walking distance. Massive thanks again to Amanda and Sonia who look after us so well.
Suzanne & Colin

Our transfer to Villa markkm51v6lbb" Raconet took only forty minutes and we were amazed at the size of the Villa (for six people). The combined dining and lounge area is large and the kitchen is really well equipped. The welcome box of goodies was excellent in its variety and usefulness. There are a number of sandy coves nearby (pleasant 15 minute walk) with safe bathing, and there are regular buses to Puerto Polenca. Cala San Vicente is fairly quiet but the last few years have seen a number of new hotels, and the local restaurants are good. A beautiful area of Majorca, away from the crowds and just right for a relaxing break.

We have had a wonderful week in this beautiful villa. It’s a great area for walking, eating and relaxing. We have enjoyed a long walk from the Lubar reservoir through the five tunnels and a welcome beer at the refuge. We ventured down the switchback road to Sa Calobra and had a great picnic in the gorge. We have great memories of this week and would love to return to do all the other things we missed.
The Hammett family
September 2021
We have all thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing week in this tranquil and welcoming villa. Lovely lazy breakfasts and lunches by the pool. Excellent snorkelling at the beach in front of Cal Patio restaurant and Call Molins. Really loved Restaurante Il Giardino in Pollença for food and location, No 31 in Pollença for beautiful cocktails, food and welcome. La Llorga, excellent location and food. A fabulous week.

The Meegan & Cosling families

We have had a wonderful week, time spent relaxing in this lovely villa and plenty of local trips. We loved the markets in Pollença and Alcúdia. Our favourite beach was at Formentor and we had great meals around the main square most evenings.
The Dell family
July 2021
We loved Alcúdia – a delicious veg market and gifts for home, walking along we found Can Polit restaurant in a quieter square and Malpas beach (Sant Joan) with the most tasty fish for lunch. Paddleboarding was a hit with everyone. Pollença Old Town, lots of lovely restaurants, the Calvari steps to earn your ice cream afterwards and lose yourself in the back streets. Cala Carlo was our favourite beach – morning snorkelling and rocks to scramble over.
The Weathersill family
July 2021
Lovely villa with a well-equipped kitchen where we all enjoyed a much-needed rest and recharge. Beautiful location, quiet, easy to navigate and excellent place for seeing more of this gorgeous island. Visited Pollença and steps well worth the effort. First time with Simpson – and not the last!

As a holiday rental home owners ourselves we have appreciated the eye for detail in this villa. Everything we needed was supplied. The weather has been wonderful for most of our visit and when it wasn’t it gave us an opportunity to explore the island. There is sun somewhere! Our favourite restaurant is Modesto just down the road. We will use Simpson again undoubtedly!

Second visit to Villa Raconet. High standards maintained. Love San Vicente as a base and hopefully return again. Thanks to Simpson and Claire for help following the cancellation of our flight.
The Evans family
May 2019
This was our second holiday with Simpson Travel and, as before, we were very impressed with the ease of this last-minute booking. We found the Simpson representatives, who met us at Palma airport, to be friendly, helpful and very professional. The villa was of the highest standard with magnificent views of a hill complete with goats gazing down at us from the summit. We acknowledge the very high standards Simpson offers and we are certainly going to consider them when we plan our next holiday.
Graham & Ann Turner
May 2019
Lovely villa, spent a lot of time staying local and chilling out! Would recommend a trip into Pollença – a walk up the Calvari steps and then rewarded ourselves with cocktails at Jimmy’s cocktail bar before a fabulous meal at Il Giardino restaurant. Also recommend a steak at Hotel Cala San Vicente or at Modesta just down the road. Loved our holiday!
The Butlers

Thoroughly enjoyed the luxury of a fortnight at Villa Raconet. Beautiful villa, beautiful area – our first time here and it won’t be our last. Claire was a wealth of useful information!

We’ve had a great holiday. It is a lovely villa. Extremely well appointed and a real bonus to be able to walk into Cala San Vicente. While we never actually met Claire as we were out and about we have been very impressed by Simpson Travel. We have really enjoyed getting re-acquainted with this part of Mallorca. Very sad to be going home.

Villa Raconet is a beautifully appointed modern villa in the perfect location for exploring the mountains, villages and coast of northern Mallorca. The owners take great pride in their building and were most welcoming and helpful. There are high levels of comfort in all bedrooms and common areas and plenty of space for our group of three couples and our baby granddaughter! Claire, the Simpson Travel representative, remained in touch throughout our stay and proved a great source of information for local trips, many of which we did! I can't recommend the villa and location enough.....we will be back!
Simon Prodger

Mr Parkes

We have stayed in many Simpson Travel villas over the years, but El Raconet has been the loveliest and most beautiful. We have admired the details of construction and attention to detail. It was a great pleasure to meet the owners and realise that they had built it themselves!
Kath & Jahn
September 2016
Villa Raconet beautiful – plan to return. Great location, furnished and planned to a very comfortable and enjoyable standard. Although we didn't meet Claire (Simpson Travel rep), that was not her fault. She called twice, but we missed her. It was very good to know she was around if we needed her. Great holiday.
Mrs Prime
July 2016
We loved the villa, built as a family home to a very high specification by the owner, a builder who we were lucky enough to meet along with his charming wife, Joanna. Very well appointed and equipped. We used the pool, barbecue and table tennis table. With the lovely jasmine scented patio and the upstairs balcony where we stargazed over a nightcap every evening, we enjoyed every aspect of the location.
Mrs Payton
June 2016
The villa is great, as is Cala San Vicente – we spent a few evenings at Cala Molins enjoying the waves. The villa has all you need and is very comfortable – coffee on the roof terrace in the morning as the sun comes round is recommended.
The Dingwall Family
June 2016
Superb week, wall-to-wall sunshine. Lovely villa, very clean and very well equipped. Ate out every evening, Pepe’s a favourite – especially the paella. Towels (bathroom and pool) cleaned mid-week by Joanna (owner) and husband – much appreciated.

Very relaxing week in this beautiful house. Unlike some other guests we didn't stray far but managed to walk to Puerto Pollença so had a little excursion! The house is perfect to relax in as there are nice airy rooms, and very well equipped. Will recommend to friends.
Mrs Howells

Villa really lovely – everything one could want and a real bonus to have a Jacuzzi bath with a small child who loved it. Enjoyed our visit to Pollença on Sunday for the market – bought some lovely fruit. Little beach perfect for a few lazy hours. Thank you for a relaxing week.
Mrs Annan
