Bonanova, Son Armadams, Portixol and Molinar, amongst others. They all
feature infrastructure and services on par with those of European
capitals, ensuring a high quality of life in your new property in Mallorca.

Vineyards, windmills, weekly markets, romantic villages, homemade delicacies, high-quality property, traditional trade, as well as views over the surrounding mountains, sometimes reaching the sea; the centre of the island is the right place to be if one wants to learn about the authentic, “true” Mallorca. And if you want to enjoy the flair of a capital city near your property, most villages are only 10-20 minutes away from Palma and Inca.
Northeast
The northeast of Majorca features idyllic tranquillity, while offering numerous possibilities for sport and leisure activities. There are five golf courses, elegant marinas for yachts, stalactite caves and wide sandy beaches. The medieval cities, Artá, Capdepera and Son Servera are refl ecting the traditional Majorcan lifestyle today, as years before. Meanwhile, the coastal cities as Cala Ratjada and Porto Cristo are offering a more sophisticated ambiance and property. The considerably improved infrastructure has made the northeast more and more attractive during the last few years.

considered one of the most beautiful areas on the island due to its
indigenous botanical wealth and beaches of crystalline waters, it is an
ideal place for getting the maximum enjoyment out of life and of your new property. As well as

West Coast
The
Northwest Region of Majorca, with its rugged and unspoiled coastline
from the Port of Sóller down to Estellencs, is, one of the most
beautiful places on the island for buying property in Mallorca. Its picturesque landscape of impressive
and imposing cliffs, olive and citrus trees, ancient terraces and
traditional historical properties have been the inspiration to artists,
composers and poets for many centuries. Despite the volume of tourists
on the island each year, this region has a unique and traditional
identity. Sóller and its authentic harbour, Deiŕ, Valldemossa,
Fornalutx and Banyalbufar are some of the most famous towns in the
area, all of them individual, stunning and special in their own right.

Rentals
Many potential buyers prefer to rent before they finally buy their dream home. The advantages of renting are many but probably the most important factor for our clients is that whilst renting they have the chance to live in and research at fi rst hand the areas where they want to buy. Decision making is dependent on location, quality and the day to day experience of living in a type of property and particular area. Furthermore, changes to the Spanish rental laws in the 1990’s mean that rental clients now have a choice of different contract terms and are not necessarily obliged to extend their rental contract beyond the initial agreed rental period.
