Mallorca represents the distilled essence of the Mediterranean. Stretching over 3626 Km2 with over a million inhabitants, it is an oasis during the summer months. Its charms lie in the perfect balance it strikes between the rhythm of a traditional southern European city and the international ambiance of being a contemporary art and cultural hub.
Outside the city, the island offers unsurpassable beauty. The landscape continuously surprises from the spectacular peaks of the Sierra de Tramontana (world heritage site), to the rolling pastures of the South east, to the unending beaches full of secret coves, all saturated by the shimmering blue of the Mediterranean sea.
There is glamour in the sprawling haciendas converted into spectacular luxury hotels contrasting with the charming authentic rural life that continues right around the corner, under the watchful gaze of the mysterious ancient Talayots.
“I love Majorca, for the fruit of my garden, the smell of the olive wood, the sun between the rocks of Es Teix, the sound of the sheep during the night.”
Robert Graves
“Any reasonable, sentient person who looks at Spain, comes to Spain, eats in Spain, drinks in Spain, they’re going to fall in love. Otherwise, there’s something deeply wrong with you. This is the dream of all the world.”
Anthony Bourdain
