Casa Bonita Menorca is a bed and breakfast with three guest rooms, opened in Menorca (Balearic Islands, Spain) in 2017. The house has been renovated internally over time to suit the taste and idea of hospitality of the landlady: a journalist, blogger and tourist entrepreneur.
“Casa Bonita is a place to find peace, relaxation, quiet. A house in harmony with the nature that surrounds it, a “buen retiro” that offers serenity and new inspirations“ Gloria told us the first time she presented her project.
Einstein, Confucius, Picasso are the names of the 3 rooms of Casa Bonita Menorca, in the villa designed and built in 2004 on a plot of about a thousand square meters.
We are in Trebaluger, a residential area at the gates of Mahon, the capital of the island of Menorca, a short distance from the airport and port, Sant Lluís and Castell, towns on the southern coast.
Gloria Vanni had already chosen Mina for the Confucius bathroom of Casa Bonita.
The most recent intervention, which Gloria tells us about directly, concerns instead the renovation of the master bedroom bathroom, and it is an absolute confirmation on Mina’s choice of 100% stainless steel and the Synth series that remains the protagonist of the space.

The bathroom of Saint-Exupéry, the master bedroom, has an area of about 10 square meters.
Given the space, I decided to build a small wall to put a double-controlled wall water drain mechanism for the suspended toilet. Next to it, the suspended bidet.
In front there is the shower, very large, whose interior has been covered with two different sizes of gray ceramic tiles: rectangular on the walls, square on the floor, equal to those of the wall of the toilet and bidet.
The external wall of the shower houses a white wardrobe for shoes, it has been decorated with the French sentence “Fais de ta vie un rêve, et d’un rêve, une réalité ~ Make your life a dream, and a dream, a reality”. These are the words of the writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, from whom the room is named.
On the wall, there is the original cabinet with recessed two white ceramic sinks by Jacob Delafont Paris. It was decided to not make changes to this side of the bathroom, because it is a very functional storage space, only the wood of the cabinet has been painted in matt anthracite gray, like all the doors of the house.
I chose the Synth collection for all the faucets, shower unit, basin and bidet mixers, while the wall accessories, toilet roll holder and towel hooks, are from the Emme collection.
I liked the Synth collection immediately for its design-clean, linear, elegant, minimalist-, for the ease of water control, and for the brightness of the brushed steel. So many exclusive details that enhance the design of this bathroom where practicality and ease of surface maintenance go hand in hand with aesthetics and elegance.
I found in Mina a company with which it was easy to establish a dialogue even at a distance, attentive to the design needs of a client that had no technical knowledge and was unable to see the mixers in the presence.
I trusted their advice and great was the satisfaction!
Mina’s faucets arrived right on time at Casa Bonita Menorca, ready to await the first guests of the new summer season.
Non sono ironica come vorrei, non sono una copywriter, non sono capace di stare ferma e la mia testa neppure. Sono una imprenditrice turistica. Nasco giornalista della carta stampata e quando i giornali iniziano a scomparire, da innamorata della comunicazione seguo l’evoluzione e mi trasformo in giornalista digitale.
Lavoro nel web e mi diverto a essere professionale in mezzo a troll e fake, cioè notizie senza senso e false. Se hai una buona connessione wifi, puoi essere ovunque. Così, dopo oltre 30 anni a Milano, ho deciso di cambiare vita. Ho scelto Minorca perché è vicina all’Italia, è un’isola cosmopolita nel Mediterraneo con una sua identità e sostenibilità. Dal primo momento che ci ho messo piede, nel 2016, mi sono sentita a casa.
Ho scelto l’isola più discreta delle Baleari anche per dedicarmi all’ospitalità, una mia passione da quando avevo 20 anni. Ho trascorso cinque anni in mare, lavorando su barche a vela e il mio compito come marinaio, cuoca, skipper era rendere indimenticabili le vacanze degli ospiti in barca.
A Minorca per sei mesi faccio la giornalista, scrivendo (in italiano) per il portale Isola di Minorca. Per altri sei accolgo viaggiatori di tutto il mondo e condivido esperienze diturismo sostenibile.
