Palma de Mallorca Holiday Apartments

Sea and mountains in the island capital

Once upon a time there was an island. And in that island there was a city called Palma. People say it’s beautiful and tourists found out a long time ago. Why? Sun, sea, weather and surrounded by mountains. Palma de Mallorca means cobbled streets, beach and a lovely old town. Palma de Mallorca will fill your needs: resting, having a good time and getting to know lovely places like Sóller or the Tramuntana mountains.

Ensaimada paradise

Don’t you dare to leave the island without an eatable souvenir (a.k.a. ensaimada). There’s no trip without it and the only thing you need to decide is how many of them are you taking home. But there’s more to Palma than sweet sweet bakery…

From local wine to flavors from the sea, Palma is a great location to discover all tastes of the Balearic archipelago.

Eat, my friend!

Ensaimada: the most popular local food and souvenir is far better than the industrial versions of it.

Sobrasada: a piece of nice bread, tasty chorizo cream (that’s what it is approximately) and you’re all set.

Herbes dolces: a fresh sweet herbal drink. Be aware, it’s not really alcohol free...

Local wine from Pla and Llevant: these are the ones to try if you are into local beverages.

Frit mallorquín: one of the classic specialties.

Sopas mallorquinas: traditional vegetable soup (you can also find meaty versions of it).

Bunyols de la revetlla de les verges: a sweet dessert, much smaller than ensaimada.

Orange liquor: brewed with the famous oranges from Sóller.

Panades: another surprise from local bakeries.

Capers: small funny taste, you call it!

A Mediterranean holiday

Wake up and feel the Mediterranean breeze. The old town will lead your way until you reach your breakfast spot. Have a taste of local delicacies and discover why ensaimada would be the right thing to try. Beach or mountain? Ideally, both: stroll along the promenade and end up in Bellver Castle. Palma means holiday... no wonder!

Don’t expect a boring little village. Palma is on an island, true. But Palma is big enough to be a city (Mediterranean, of course). No matter if you are on a short escape or a long holiday, don’t you miss these:

Mallorca’s 10 jewels

La Seu: Palma’s cathedral is a must in the city.

Bellver Castle: amazing views, worth the trip.

Old Town: the neverending charm of cobbled streets.

Plaça del Rei: let the flavour of ancient times impress you.

Es Baluard: are you in for some art?

Palace life: Almudaina and March, two palaces where you will never live.

Lonja: a memory of fishermen’s land.

Tramuntana mountains: perfect hikes to watch some trees and admire the sea from a distance.

Train to Sóller: a popular getaway from the capital to a picture-postcard village.

Every day is Sun Day in Mallorca

Mallorca is not German (but almost). A favorite destination among German holiday professionals, Mallorca is a small paradise and lives (partly) from its fame. You can party in cheap and expensive clubs, you can rest and you can surely forget about your common routines.

Enjoy the island and don’t forget to escape to Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera (if you think you’re done with it). Nothing better than these four lines from local crazy band Ossifar to define your Mallorca experience:

Every day is sundey a Mallorca

every night the stars shine in the sky

every moment the wishered is Mallorca

every thing is wonderful.

It’s not only about sun and beach

Are your cheeks full of sugar already? Then you are ready to go ahead with everything Palma has to offer. It’s not all about food, but many of them are as delicious as that ensaimada you already tasted.

A quiet walk around Born, discovering small beaches around town or a family day at the Aquarium de Palma. Mallorca is not just a one-night-stand.
