“Wonderful place”

There were 13 of us including one 4 year old and one baby of 8 months. We had an amazing stay. The Villa was all we were led to believe and more, well equipped, clean and with lots of facilities.

There were 13 of us including one 4 year old and one baby of 8 months. We had an amazing stay. The Villa was all we were led to believe and more, well equipped, clean and with lots of facilities. The pool and baby pool were great. It was situated in lovely countryside but there was also easy access to villages, shops and seaside. Isabel, the owner was very helpful and friendly. We had a wonderful time.

“Middle of nowhere”

Mas Jonquer is a very well converted farmhouse. The rooms are very nicely appointed, good bathroom, although the bed was rather too hard for our taste.

Mas Jonquer is a very well converted farmhouse. The rooms are very nicely appointed, good bathroom, although the bed was rather too hard for our taste. Because of the T shape of our room, the aircon didn't really reach the bed, despite a ceiling fan. Isabel provided very good, and very good value evening meal (we couldn't believe that the E16 a head included such good wine) - even at relatively short notice (necessary, because there are few close restaurants, and they have crazy opening hours), breakfast good, loved the honesty bar. Delightful to be able to relax in the garden, have a game of boules (or was it petanques...never did know the difference), have a dip in the pool.

As a family group of 12 adults we have been going on holiday together for a good number of years. This year was Mas Jonquer's turn. On arrival, Isabel was very welcoming and showed us round, how things worked and where things were locally. Although this place is run as B&B we had the whole property to ourselves, except we didn't know it was effectively attached to another property occupied by Isabel and family, so not as isolated as we anticipated. The bedrooms were all very nice with working a/c and ensuites, all much of the same standard and size. The lounge, dining room and kitchen were all of a good size too.The outside terrace was nicely located apart from the smell from the drains and the adjacent cattle barns. The grounds too are very spacious and it has a lovely pool, but why do the staff have to be tending to it at times when we were using the facilities. Some of our women felt uncomfortable in the pool with the elderly man wandering about. The biggest problem we had was that Isabel told us the oven was a bit temperamental, then early in the first week it decided to stop altogether ! The day it broke Isabel took our prepared meal away and cooked it for us. However it took the best part of a week to get a replacement oven ! As a group, we enjoy prepping and cooking our own meals, with the kitchen being an integral part of the holiday. Isabel did offer to cook our meals for us in her house, but that is defeating the point made in the previous sentence, so wrong had to improvise and adjust our menus so that we could use the barbecue. We also ended up eating out a good bit more, at significant expense. By the time the new cooker arrived, we had already planned our meals utilising the bbq so it's eventual arrival was meaningless. We paid more for this holiday than any other, yet were offered a paltry €150 for our inconvenience (any group meal out was costing in excess of €300). Even then, the chap that saw us off kept the money in his pocket until we had to ask for it So, the building and grounds are very nice, the smells not so much, and the level of attention to shortcomings was woeful I'm afraid. The WiFi was also pathetic, very intermittent as to connecting.
