For decades, artists and authors have been drawn to the island’s majestic and gorgeous west coast. One of the first English to relocate to the island was Robert Graves, regarded as one of England’s best poets.

Why visit?

Mallorca is made up of a fertile plain situated between two mountain ranges: the Serra de Tramuntana to the north and the Serres de Llevant to the south. The Bay of Palma, which is home to the island’s ancient capital city, and the Bay of Alcudia from the lowlands. Long sandy beaches and shallow, mild waters characterize both.

Experience:

A day trip from your villa to Palma is recommended. If you go around the historic neighborhood, you’ll come across a diverse mix of architectural styles; don’t miss La Seu, the gothic golden church located above the charming Parc de la Mar. The vibrant city also boasts a diverse selection of eateries and pubs to suit all budgets.

Port de Sóller, a tiny seaside hamlet, is one of the greatest spots on the island to view the sunset. The tram ride to the port is enjoyable, and the hiking and cycling routes are breathtaking.

A beautiful drive from your villa to the northern point of Mallorca takes you to the Cap de Formentor, where the Tramuntana mountain range meets the Mediterranean Sea for breathtaking vistas.

For smooth white sand and shallow calm seas, visit the stunning blue-flag beach bordered with lovely pine trees, which is ideal for families on vacation with small children.
