Away from the madding crowds

“Way up a dirt road
Beautiful views – lovely rooms –
Nice small hotel with honesty bar and lovely staff
Superb if small pool and surrounds
Good advice from owners about local places to eat and swim”

Fabulous

We stayed here for a sensational wedding. Can Talaias really is a hidden gem – on a hill top, reached up a long dirt track with speed bumps. It’s not suitable for your Lamborghini. Fortunately we’d hired a Mini Countryman! The view from the top is superb and the property itself beautifully renovated. The rooms are spotless. The former home of Terry-Thomas, it is run by his charismatic English son, Cushan and his lovely wife Laeti in a delightful bohemian fashion. The couple are workaholics, but find the time to make all their guests feel at home in this ultra laid-back oasis of calm. I can’t thank them enough for their very genuine, heartfelt hospitality.

There are fabulous walks from Can Talaias, up to the promontory (about 30-40 minutes) and down to two secluded beaches (with modest beach bars and facilities). It takes about 40 minutes to walk into San Carles village which has good eateries, a great bar and retail therapy. It’s longer to walk back!
Thoroughly recommended!
