A beautiful island with many villas in Mallorca is offering something for everyone. Our holiday villa, LA FINCA, is conveniently placed in the heart of the island, so you can reach each point on the island under an hour. The best time for a visit is during the spring or fall, when the weather is mild and there are fewer tourists. However, our finca is available throughout the year.

Sunscreen and a hat or a cap are the basic gear to bring, if visiting the island. Be sure to buy the sunscreen with the highest protection factor as the sunshine though beautiful is fierce, especially during summer months.

If you're planning on doing a lot of hiking or exploring the mountains, be sure to pack appropriate clothing and footwear. There are many different ways to get around Mallorca, including by car, bus, train, and ferry.

For our guests: you can book a shuttle in advance to take you directly from the airport to LA FINCA.

Be sure to try some of the local cuisine during your stay, such as paella, tapas, and sobrassada (a typical creamy sausage).

Our guests have the opportunity to choose between a winetasting and a paella night on the premises prepared by a private chef.

From stunning beaches to charming villages, there are endless possibilities for exploring. Here is a list of the top places that you should definitely see when you visit Mallorca.
