Location
About the surrounding area of Villa LarenaVilla Larensa has situated just a ten-minute drive from the small municipality of Sa Pobla near Pollensa. The area is well-known for its agriculture and, in particular, its potato harvest. In fact, the region exports this local produce all over the world and a festival is held in the humble vegetable’s honour every year. The town is the perfect place to unwind and relax, and visitors here spend their time strolling through the pretty streets and the ambient old quarter, visiting the traditional Mallorcan shops selling fresh, local produce and crafts, or relaxing in one of the bars, cafes or family-run restaurants that are plentiful in the area.
If you want to really immerse yourself in the culture while you’re here (and we highly recommend that you do!), an amble around the local parish church and the Can planes Museum of Contemporary Art will give you a fascinating insight into Sa Pobla’s history. The museum showcases more than a hundred works by artists from or living in Mallorca, with the collection including many sculptures and temporary exhibits as well as paintings.
The town is no stranger to festivals, and in addition to the annual potato festival (Fira Nocturna de la Patata), where you can enjoy music and dancing alongside traditional and modern potato dishes, the town also hosts the Sa Pobla Jazz Festival every August, presenting more than fifteen national and international artists. If you happen to be visiting the town in mid-January, you could get to enjoy the spectacle that is the festival honouring Sa Pobla’s patron saint, Sant Antoni. The theme of this interesting celebration is fire, with the big attraction being ‘demons’ who are set free to chase people around the town! You’ll also get to experience a fire show, live music, and delicious barbeque specialities such as botifarron and llonganissa (Mallorcan sausages).
One of the best things about holidaying close to this vibrant and charming town is its fantastic location, with everything you could possibly want from this stunning Mediterranean island all within easy reach. Sa Pobla’s close proximity to the coast means that the beautiful beaches of Alcudia, Pollensa and Can Picafort are just a short journey away, as is Albufera’s famous wildlife nature park.

THE REGION
Sa Pobla is a small municipality with around 12,000 inhabitants, which is situated in the centre of Mallorca, between Inca and Alcúdia. Sa Pobla is known for its agriculture and the humble potato, in particular, gets a lot of attention here as it is exported to many countries and a festival is even held in its honour each year.
The town of Sa Pobla is partly on the Albufera nature reserve (Parc natural de s'Albufera de Mallorca), a protected wetland area. The nature reserve is particularly good for bird watching as well as hikes and walks.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesIf you’ve been searching for a holiday base for you and the kids, a secure and safe place that you can call home during your stay - Villa Larensa is it. Kids of all ages will enjoy the spacious rooms and outdoor spaces, as well as the private pool and shaded areas in which to eat and relax with the rest of the family.
The town of Sa Pobla has plenty of family-friendly attractions, from the colourful Sunday market to the toys and games museum, which is bursting with exhibits that are sure to delight the kids. There is a wide choice of restaurants and cafes in the town offering refreshments and dishes to suit all ages, and strolling through the pretty streets with an after-dinner ice cream in hand is something the whole family can enjoy.
If you fancy a bit of a change of scenery from the town where the kids can burn off some energy, Sa Pobla is located partly on the Albufera nature reserve, a protected wetland area that is popular with bird watchers and is the perfect spot for hiking, walking and cycling.
Sa Pobla is just minutes from Pollensa, which features plenty of child-friendly beaches and seaside playgrounds. We recommend heading to the sandy stretches of Puerto Pollensa beach, undoubtedly the most popular in the area with families. This gorgeous beach has great amenities such as umbrella rental, sports facilities and lots of cafes, bars and restaurants, so you’ll really be able to make a day of it.
Glass-bottom boat excursions are popular with visitors to Pollensa and offer something a little out of the ordinary to do with the children. There are several trips available from Pollensa and are a chance to check out the fish and explore one of the most beautiful beaches in Mallorca - Formentor, home of the famous lighthouse. Some of the boat trips offer extras such as snorkelling or fishing - with lunch included! - so, it’s well worth setting aside a day during your holiday to enjoy this unique experience.

Simply fantastic
The villa is simply fantastic in terms of location and facilities. However, on our second visit, some things were not in order at the beginning. However, this was quickly fixed by the property management. The problem with the internet access, which was caused by a thunderstorm, was also fixed promptly. All in all, we can really recommend this villa and point out that the property management is always on hand in case of problems. We would rent this villa again at any time.
Don't miss out! Reserve now and get a full refund if you change your mind within 48hrs.
