Mallorca's hotspots

Mallorca is known for its breathtaking beaches and beautiful nature. But also, for example, famous sportsmen like Rafael Nadal, Carlos Moyà and top racing driver Jorge Lorenzo can call Mallorca home. A 2.5 hour flight is an excellent place to go with friends, but also very suitable for families to discover all the idyllic corners of the island. Here are a few hotspots from The Thinking Traveller to ensure an unforgettable vacation on Mallorca.Text: Fleur de Jong

Palacio Can Ferrer

In this villa you are guaranteed to unwind. Located in a quiet street in the old center of capital, the modest Palacio Can Ferrer is tucked away. A short walk away you will find all the fun of the artsy city of Palma. From historic sights and art galleries to the fantastic array of markets, restaurants, bars and cafes, this city has it all. The high ceilings and generous suites with marble floors create bright and open spaces in the villa. If you are ready for some rest after visiting the city, this is perfectly possible on the rooftop terrace or the beach which is just a 15-minute walk away.Palacio Can Ferrer

Mal Pas

In the beautiful area surrounding the historic town of Alcúdia is Villa Mal Pas. Alcúdia is a beautiful historic town whose picturesque medieval walls and Roman archaeological site are an absolute must visit are. But in the villa itself, guests will not easily be bored.

All indulgences are nearby, for example, the white beaches and restaurants are within walking distance and just a 20-minute drive away you will find the beautiful mountain landscapes of Serra de Tramuntana, a UNESCO World Heritage.

Sa Vista

Sa Vista is the Spanish word for sight, and for good reason. The beautiful sea view combined with the very impressive interior makes for the perfect combination. You can enjoy the surrounding terraces with green gardens. With the warm temperatures, it is great to end the summer evenings with a dip in the pool. Sa Vista

Cas Padri Pons

Cas Padri Pons is a charming villa and is located, slightly off the beaten path, in the historic center of Satanayí. This town has a gentle, authentic atmosphere due to its car-free streets, among other things. Spend a day strolling the squares and enjoying art in the many galleries, there is also a market twice a week: a good chance to stock up on ingredients for a delicious local dish. Actually, it is almost a waste to spend time by the pool of the villa, because nearby are the golden beaches of S'Amarador, one of the best in all of Mallorca.Cas Padri Pons

Rural

Inland, amid 15 acres of orchards, almond and carob trees lies the Villa Rural. A perfect place for people who are a little less fond of the beach and like to explore as true nature lovers. The villa can accommodate eight guests and is a true ode to Mallorcan architecture through its many authentic features. Rural is also ideal if you want to travel with family and children, as the villa features a children's area surrounded by terraces. While the children play safely, you can relax in the 16-meter pool.
