Your property in Mallorca

Buying a property in Mallorca, the island for all seasons, appeals to those looking for a luxurious holiday home or a permanent base from which to access mainland Europe.

From pied-à-terre-style town houses in the centre of Palma de Mallorca to striking marble and glass villas in areas like Port Andratx, Santa Ponsa and Palma Nova, it’s easy to find a home in a vibrant part of the island.

For those seeking solitude, locations along the spine of the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range, a Unesco heritage site, host finca-style farmhouses and larger estates, while towns such as Sóller and Deià offer low-key, less ostentatious urban living than the island’s south-west.

Inside Mallorca

With the vibrancy of Barcelona, the beauty of the Costa del Sol and the prestige of the French Riviera, buying a home in Mallorca is an appealing prospect.

Palma de Mallorca possesses rich historical architecture with a modern, forward-thinking population that creates a dynamic culture with cutting-edge restaurants, designer shopping boutiques, and vivid nightlife.

Coastal towns attract international buyers with their access to the water and harbours, while those who prefer a calmer tempo can seek out towns and villages in the foothills of the Serra de Tramuntana, which offers the perfect place for outdoor activities, including hiking and cycling throughout its terrain.

Landscape

Mallorca’s roughly 262 beaches range from long stretches in key resorts through to rocky bays and hard-to-reach 'calas', or coves, helping to create a quintessential island paradise.

The capital Palma de Mallorca’s skyline is still dominated by the Cathedral of Santa María, a gothic structure whose construction began in the 13th Century, while a slew of other historic monuments are scattered around the city.

Coastal towns in the south-west offer an authentic and glamorous feel, while the north-west’s smaller conurbations like Sóller and Deía in the Golden Valley provide authentic market town chic. In the rugged Serra de Tramuntana mountains, picturesque locations mean luxurious and discrete living.

Education

More than a dozen top international schools are available on the island offering education in several languages, such as English, German, French and Spanish.

The majority of the institutions, such as Bellver International College and Lycée Francais de Palma, are located in and around Palma and the south-west of the island, with a few scattered throughout other areas.

Palma’s University of the Balearic Islands is regarded as one of the top 10 universities in Spain.

Activities and Entertainment

Mallorca’s stunning coastline is undoubtedly one of the island’s main attractions: From relaxing on pristine, ‘blue flag’ beaches, indulging in snorkelling to water-skiing, or going off-piste to explore tiny coves, the Mediterranean shoreline satisfies everyone.

Sports enthusiasts are more than well-catered for too, with 24 golf courses spread across the island, the Rafael Nadal Tennis Academy, and countless cycle routes ranging from tours of Palma’s old town to steep climbs through the Serra de Tramuntana mountains.

And the island excels in terms of culture, with brilliant examples of Roman and Moorish architecture, and a growing number of country houses to tour, alongside vineyards.

Art and Culture

For a small island, Mallorca bursts with art and culture.

Several cultural icons are memorialised at key attractions, including Casa Robert Graves, which explores the life of the British writer and poet who moved to Deià in 1929, and Fundació Pilar i Joan Miró, a hilltop museum celebrating the life of the Catalan artist.

The splendour of the island’s architecture is virtually unmatched, with the palatial Palau March in Palma, which contains sculptures from Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth, and the Sa Torre Cega coastal estate near Capdepera.

And the island is in almost continuous celebration mode throughout the year, with events such as its famous Fira del Fang, or pottery festival, in the spring, and a packed calendar of local festivals that celebrate its cultural heritage throughout the summer.

Food and Drink

A burgeoning foodie hub, Mallorca’s culinary scene has risen in prominence as leading chefs modernise traditional recipes and the increasingly cosmopolitan make-up of the island increases the international influence.

Seven restaurants now have Michelin stars in Mallorca, including Zaranda, near Capdellà and Es Racó d’es Teix in Deià, while Palma is a true melting pot with food as diverse as Chilean-infused tapas at Stagier, Mediterranean-Asian fusion at Fera and authentic Mallorcan at Casa Mauka.

A flourishing wine scene has emerged on the island in the past few decades that seeks to resurrect the high reputation it held in ancient Roman times. An amalgamation of indigenous grapes and international varieties have led to great success in wine-growing regions such as Binissalem and Plà i Llevant.

Accessibility

Palma de Mallorca airport is Spain's third-largest, handling more than 29 million passengers in 2019 from a host of global destinations.

The island is particularly well-served by air from mainland Spain, with regular flights to Madrid and Barcelona.
