The final location is:

N 35° 53.(D-E)(C-G)(H-A) E 14° 26.(B+E)(F-A)(B-C)

The cache container is a small film canister with only a pen and logbook.

Don't miss out the animal park while you're visiting the President's Kitchen Garden.

Note for wheelchair users

To reach waypoint H you need to use the park's wheelchair lifts that are monitored by the nearby cafe. All other waypoints (and cache itself) should be wheelchair accessible without any external help. You can solve the puzzle without visiting the waypoint H.
Ramp from San Anton Palace to Sant Antnin road seemed quite narrow and steep. You might have to go around it by using the Lord Strickland road.
For wheelchair users I would recommend starting the cache from waypoint G. Then I would go to waypoint H or skip it in case the wheelchair lifts are too much of a hazzle. Then I recommend checking the entry to San Anton Palace. If it is accessible the shortest/recommended path is F, C, B, A, D, E. If the entry is not accessible then the recommended path is Lord Strickland road, A, B, C, F, E, D.
