It’s almost as if Mallorca was tailor-made as a holiday destination. Relatively easy to get to, small enough to be easily explored but big enough to offer the full range of holiday experiences. It’s obviously got the benefit of enjoying the Mediterranean climate and you even get a choice of the kind of beach you can enjoy – from big and popular with loads of amenities to secluded coves that you can have all to yourself.
And Mallorca is wonderfully accommodating no matter what kind of holiday you’re after. You can live it up in the clubs and bars of Palma or head up to the north-western side of the island where you can enjoy a little hard-earned peace and seclusion with friends or family. And of course, thanks to Mallorca’s popularity there are loads of great places for foodie experiences, things to do and great family activities – and they’re not all tacky tourist traps either.
Every fantastic holiday destination must also have some fantastic accommodation, so we’ve listed our top 10 villas in Mallorca to show you some amazing places to stay on this amazing island!
