We have booked with Solmar Villas on 5 previous occasions with no problems. We have noticed that the company has been under new ownership since last year. Can Font Roig is a traditional Mallorquin house which has been neglected. Outside it needs painting & the BBQ, patio furniture & parasol base are all badly rusted. Inside the furniture is old& shabby. Cushions inside & out are stained. The kitchen & bathrooms need upgrading with chipped tiles. The whole building needs rewiring.We arrived to find no condiments, dishcloths or cleaning products had either been provided or left from previous guests. We found this unwelcoming & it hasn’t happened before. The property also lacked1 a visitors book with local recommendations 2 guidance on recycling 3 a safe4 appropriate markings on the many interior & exterior steps (important safety issues as I am rising 80)5 an accurate WiFi code6 a local rep to contact7 a thorough cleanThe pool is basic surrounded by unsightly sheep proof netting & 1 torn & faded beach umbrella for 6 guests. This patio needed power washing & sweeping. In 12 days we saw no one tend the pool which slowly filled with leaves, or the surrounding garden.A dark pantry infested with tiny red ants contained a large amount of crockery, glassware, cutlery & cooking utensils; but we had to scrub everything before we could use it. Most distressingly, every day in the afternoon, a farmer from next doors farm brought a full flock of sheep to graze in the orchard adjoining the property. There was nothing to stop the sheep straying onto the ground floor patio & leaving their droppings. We found this unhygienic & offensive.Lastly the website pictures were misleading. There was no table on the first floor balcony, no seating cushions on the white patio furniture, different sun loungers, & no proper sunshade.Resolve
