Majorca (Mallorca in local parlance) is an idyllic Spanish island brimming with sunshine, offering something for every traveler to do and see. From its sandy beaches and lively resorts to its mountainous landscape, Majorca provides family fun as well as peaceful escapes. From Puerto Pollenca's charming seaside charms to Cala d'Or's sandy coves - villa holidays in Majorca provide easy access to sun lounger-lined shores as well as charming villages.
Traveling across Majorca is easy thanks to an efficient road network and its compact size. Spend a day exploring Palma's lively marina and luxurious shops before venturing out to Majorca's breathtaking UNESCO World Heritage sites; such as its Zoo with its magnificent Gothic cathedral or Caves of Drach with Europe's largest underground lake.
Experience Mallorca's delicious cuisine at one of its many tapas restaurants. Vegetarians may relish tumbet - a vegetable stew similar to Ratatouille; while those with an affinity for fish will adore Serviola a la Mallorquina and bocadillos de calamares. Meat lovers must experience Majorca's delicious suckling pig and sobrassada cured sausages if you wish to experience an authentic Majorcan villa holiday. With its charming cobbled streets and shaded cafes, Pollenca makes the ideal place to do just that. Santanyi or S'Horta provide tranquil retreats in the countryside. Villas here often boast private pools and sunny terraces for alfresco dining; many boast expansive views across rolling hillsides to the sparkling turquoise waters of the Mediterranean just a stroll away.
