Pure Sunshine Majorca, Balearic Islands

Property Description

Rest and reset at this traditional Finca nestled deep in Mallorca’s agricultural heartland fringing the town of Costitx.

Inside, it’s all exposed stone walls, vaulted timber ceilings, and cool, tiled floors – just as a Mallorcan farmhouse should be.

But it’s outside around the poolside that’s getting us really hot under the collar. Beat the heat with dips in the pool or sneak away to a shady nook for a siesta – the hammock would be a fine place to start.

When it comes to the evenings, take your pick for spaces to dine and recline. Rustle up drinks for sundowners together in the outdoor lounge area. Fire up the barbecue and feast beneath the sail awnings. Or take things inside to host a glamourous dinner party around the dining table.

Away from this luxurious villa, there’s plenty nearby to explore. Jump in the car and head to weekly markets at Costitx (a five-minute drive) and a little further, Sineu, to stock up on local produce – with a pitstop to the nearby vineyards to pick up some local wines.

And when the sea finally beckons, take your pick from the northern, eastern, and southern beaches, which are almost equidistant from the home. Our vote goes to Es Capellans (less than a half-an-hour drive away) – we hear the beach bars perched right on the sands do the best paella around.
