This classic, tropical villa in Mallorca will transport you into island life instantly.
This classic, tropical villa in Mallorca will transport you into island life instantly. Nothing says “paradise” like a hammock beside the pool (surrounded by palms) - you may be tempted to plant yourself there and catch up on reading for your whole holiday. Indeed, the garden and terraces encourage outdoor living: eat food from the stone barbecue, drink Mallorcan wine, and be very merry.
Inside the sloped wooden ceilings above and comfortable, casual furniture lend a homey feeling to your holiday villa. Pick a book from the shelf, and settle in. The Annex bedroom suite, set a little apart from the house, is perfect for a couple who prefer a little extra privacy. Because you're not to worry (you're on holiday) maid service is included, and you'll be welcomed with a basket of essential breakfast foods - no need to hunt for coffee or tea!
The beach is but a short drive away in Puerto Pollenca (4 km), where you'll find white sands, blue sea, and gorgeous restaurants along the bay. For a more historical day of sight-seeing go to Pollenca (5.5 km), where the monastery at the top of the 365 Calvary Steps is privy to a grand view.

Pollensa is easily one of the most attractive municipalities on Majorca. One of the first areas on the island to develop as a centre for tourism, it has been a haven for painters and artists since for many years.
Pollenca is an attractive town in north east Mallorca, in the foothills of the Tramuntana mountains. With beautiful architecture to appreciate, such as the Calvari steps, the town is rich in history. Among its highlights are the ‘Pont Roma', an ancient Roman bridge, the Mare de Deu dels Angels church with its famous rose window, and the Convent de Sant Domingo.
The neighbouring port, Puerto de Pollenca, lies to the north and has one of the area's best beaches, with numerous bars and restaurants to explore in the vicinity. Puerto de Pollenca also offers water-sports, a water park for children, and a golf course can also be found just outside the town.
Also to the north of Pollenca is Cala Sant Vicenc, one of Mallorca's smaller resorts, and home to three beaches: Cala Molins, Cala Barques and Cala Clara. The landscape is dramatic and hilly, with rugged cliffs and rocks, and its popularity with visitors has seen it develop some excellent restaurants, tapas bars and useful amenities.
Further down the coast, Alcudia has a large marina, serving as a boarding point for boat trips to Menorca and the Spanish mainland. The town is considered one of the most attractive in the area, so don't miss out on seeing its historic centre, visiting the open-air market or seeing Spain's smallest Roman amphitheatre.
Many beautiful places can be found in the areas further inland, such as the Natural Park S'Albufera, the largest of its kind in the Balearics. Pollenca is easily accessible, with Palma de Mallorca Airport around 60km away.
