Granisla Apartments  * *

An impressive apartment property with imaginativee arty decor and lots of space to relax both in the stylish lounge sections and good-sized pools. Well-suited to families with children’s services and handy for the beachfront with some upmarket shops and restaurants nearby. (No onsite restaurant).

It boasts a ‘chill out’ lounge with DVDs, Nintendos, bean bags, books and games. Slightly worrying is the low, submerged wall section just below the surface of the water in the main pool which should be clearly signed as it could be dangerous for children or inebriated adults. Transport for other island towns and the capital Palma is nearby.
