Surrounded by pines, Mariposa is located along a quiet road leading to a fabulous sandy beach, ideal for sheltered bathing and dotted with restaurants. Outside, a pretty sun terrace surrounds the private pool, with a dining terrace and BBQ for you to enjoy the pleasures of alfresco dining in the lovely Menorcan heat. A further selection of shops and bars in Arenal d'en Castells are located within a few minute's walk. We advise clients to take car hire in low season as some of the local shops may be closed.

Resort: Arenal d'en Castell in Menorca
This popular resort on the north coast of the island is set within a beautiful horseshoe-shaped sandy bay, overlooked by lush pine trees. Most of our villas overlook the stunning bay and are just a short walk from the beach. You’ll find restaurants and bars built up on the rocks to the rear of the beach and a road train that takes you to the resort centre with its wider selection of amenities.
"We have stayed in Mariposa before, and just love its quiet location with its very close proximity to the beach. We think this is a perfect villa and resort for mixed age groups; grandparents, parents and young children.
However, plug sockets in 2 of the bedrooms to plug the fans in would have been useful. In fact they were desperately needed in August! "

Mr Seys, Telford, July 2008
"Overall I thought the whole holiday went smoothly and we had no problems at all. I liked the privacy aspect of infrequent visits by maids, reps. etc. The welcome pack was very welcome and got us started after the journey from the airport. "
