The enduring charm of Cala San Vicente means we are always on the lookout for quality property, but the best houses here are rarely available for rent as their Spanish owners prefer to keep them free for their own weekend use. We are particularly pleased therefore to offer Villa Raconet, located on the outskirts of the resort in a residential area within easy walking distance of restaurants and a sandy beach.
The interiors are contemporary and very comfortable, with large bedrooms and smart, hotel-style en-suites. The exposed stonework and beamed ceilings lend the character which is so often lacking in holiday accommodation, while the walled pool terrace is a gorgeously sheltered spot, particularly in early or late season. The upper terrace has wonderful mountain views; just pull up a chair and enjoy a drink as you plan your next day.

We have been on many Simpson holidays, including several in Mallorca and this villa is definitely one of the best locations being within walking distance of shops, restaurants, beaches and several beautiful walks. Thanks to the Simpson team and Amanda for arranging a birthday dinner out for us.
Excellent villa, clean and well resourced. Walking distance of two excellent beaches and good restaurants.
We absolutely loved our 2 week stay at Villa Raconet. The accommodation was stunning and the location perfect. Another awesome holiday with Simpson Travel.
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.
We had a great trip. With three generations to satisfy, it was a bit of an ask but the villa exceeded our expectations. Thank you Simpson Travel, Joanna and Sebastian.
Fantastic villa in a great location. Quiet location overlooking the mountains but near to local shops and some amazing restaurants. Would thoroughly recommend.
Raconet exceeded our expectations, as did the housekeeping, and Amanda and the Simpsons team. Back in September??
Villa Raconet totally exceeded our expectations - from original phone call to final departure everything was excellent.
We had a wonderful holiday and can’t wait to rebook!
Wonderful family holiday at this beautiful villa. Excellent service from Simpson, from booking to advice on places to go. Always there to answer any questions/queries throughout the whole process, gives peace of mind. Highly recommend.
Our holiday was excellent. The rep at the villa (Amanda) went above and beyond.
We had a wonderful stay in this lovely comfortable house. It is practical and very homely and the owners and Simpson Travel could not have been more accommodating and helpful. Huge thanks to Amanda and Sarah at Simpson and Sebastian and Joanna. A lovely holiday.
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.
Villa Raconet was an easy place to stay in and the three generations of our family had a relaxing two weeks stay.
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, 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.
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.
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.
Wonderful villa. We loved our stay at Raconet. Great location. Simpson Travel has been fantastic with every need.
Wonderful villa. We loved our stay at Raconet. Great location. We loved Hotel Illa d'Or and Il Giardino in Pollença, our happy spots. Simpson Travel has been fantastic for our every need.
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.
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.
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!
Fabulous villa! Simply stunning exterior and interior. Great location. Lovely restaurants in Cala San Vicente. Pine Walk in Puerto Pollença still beautiful. Pollença still charming. Several visits with Simpson – still the best.
Lovely villa, well equipped and we had great weather. We recommend Modesto restaurant, we enjoyed our stay in your lovely villa. We went to the Puerto Pollença several times and ate along the waterside.
This was our fourth time with Simpson, we were booked to fly with Thomas Cook, luckily Simpson located new flights with EasyJet from Bristol, their service is outstanding, local rep we only spoke to by phone as we have been to Majorca before, but available if we needed her.
Many thanks to Simpson Travel and to Claire. We had a wonderful week and this little villa is perfect. Lots of walking, relaxing by the pool and good food at local restaurants.
A wonderful, relaxing stay in a beautiful villa. We hope to return.
Had a lovely week in a beautiful villa. Really enjoyed a meal and a swim in the lagoon at Es Guix. We loved going to Pepes for a drink and a meal on our final night. Many thanks for a lovely stay.
A wonderful holiday in this gorgeous villa. Just what the doctor ordered. Thank you.
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!
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.
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.
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!
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.
A wonderful villa and a superb family holiday. Simpson Travel and Claire have been excellent. Our girls (aged 2 and 4) loved the pool and the beach.
A beautiful villa that provided a base for discovery of mountains, beaches, town squares and fabulous cafés.
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!
The villa owner and Simpson Travel should be proud of this villa and its luxury features – so well equipped with everything we could have asked for. Thanks for a wonderful holiday!
Lovely week doing not very much – enjoyed the villa and the pool and pottering around – exactly what we wanted! The smell of jasmine will forever remind us of Mallorca. Beautiful.
Our first Simpson Travel holiday exceeded our (very high) expectations in almost every way. We will definitely travel with Simpson again.
Villa Raconet is a beautiful villa in a quiet location. The interior is tastefully furnished and the pool and outdoor area perfect.
A wonderful week in a stunning property – what fantastic workmanship...another successful holiday with Simpson Travel – thank you!
Best travel company I have ever used. Would never use anyone else.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
After you book a holiday with Simpson Travel you will not look anywhere else.
Simpson Travel is a truly professional company that offers a holistic service to address your every need. We will definitely book again with you for our next villa holiday! Thank you.
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.
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.
Yet again Simpson Travel went above and beyond the realms of providing just a pleasant holiday. Great service, personal touches and a wonderful property all added to the natural splendour of northern Mallorca. Needless to say they will be our 'go to' provider next time. First class.
Every comfort and convenience and two beautiful weeks of sunshine. Spent many happy hours around the pool with meals in the evening. We are going home very relaxed and chilled out.
Our choice of Mallorquín properties is as diverse as the island itself, ranging from simple seaside charm to comfortable and stylish. Much of our portfolio is privately owned, and price alone is therefore not a universal guide. We contract all our accommodation in person, and each property has its individual appeal.
To help you make the right choice based on your own priorities, we have devised a simple grading guide to be considered in conjunction with each individual property description, awarding up to a maximum of five stars for the below categories.

Nestled in north Mallorca, picturesque Pollensa sits in the lee of the Tramuntana mountains, close to the glorious sandy beach at Puerto Pollensa. Its characterful Old Town is threaded with narrow cobbled streets and packed with atmospheric bars, cafes and restaurants, plus chic little shops for a foodie treat or essential new beach item. Climb the Calvari steps for a view over the whole town, or sit and watch the world go by in the bustling Plaza Major. The lively Sunday market is a top attraction for browsers and bargain hunters, and a great place to find tasty local produce for your villa barbecue or picnic on the beach.
Puerto Pollensa is ideal for a family holiday, with an easily-accessible, long, sandy beach, watersports and plenty of dining choices for all appetites. Take a stroll along the famous Pine Walk or drive out to the Formentor Peninsula for magical sunset views.
To complete the picture of your luxury holiday in Pollensa or Puerto Pollensa, we offer a selection of handpicked villas and a delightful agroturisme hotel, an inspiring blend of old and new for families and couples alike. For the best Pollensa beaches and things to do in the area, see our Guide to Pollensa below.
