You will discover modern art galleries mingling with Spanish restaurants and Roman and medieval ruins. A walk up the steep main street, Puig de Pollensa, leads you to an old medieval monastery dating back to 1348 with views of the mountains and the Mediterranean Sea. The beach at Puerto Pollensa is breathtakingly beautiful and offers an excellent range of water sports.  Whilst La Finquita is within easy reach of all of Pollensa’s many attractions; it also offers seclusion and tranquillity. It is a wonderful spot where you will unwind and totally relax. The living room enjoys a warm and welcoming ambience with a non-working feature fireplace, television, DVD player and comfy sofas. You can dine inside or head out for a spot of alfresco dining. The villa’s kitchen is very generous in size and boasts modern units and excellent stainless steel appliances.  La Finquita boasts three dreamy bedrooms, all very spacious. The master offers a double bed and a large ensuite shower room. There is another double and a delightful twin with some characterful ceiling beams. All of the bedrooms are beautifully adorned with colourful soft furnishings. Guests staying in the double and twin rooms share a fully tiled family bathroom with a bath and overhead shower. The grounds of La Finquita are truly exceptional and blissfully serene. The pool is surrounded by greenery as well as loungers which can sit on the terrace or on the grass. Alfresco dining can be enjoyed under a shaded canopy and using the wonderful barbecue house. Again painted in bright yellow, it is a happy place where your barbecue masters can have a lot of fun cooking up a feast. In addition, the villa offers a small roof terrace where you can disappear with your holiday book for a quiet read while enjoying the mountain and garden views. La Finquita is located between Pollensa and Puerto Pollensa in a fabulously green spot. It is peaceful and serene, yet it is within easy reach of this resort and Alcudia. Guests enjoy exploring the island’s majestic mountains, sleepy, charming villages and famous caves. Cyclists are in heaven when they discover the mountain roads and stunning views.  The majestic Old Town of Pollensa is famous for its enchanting walls and bustling main square, Placa Major. It is the place to head to for excellent restaurants, coffee and people-watching. The town’s buzzy, popular Sunday market boasts delicious food stands as well as souvenirs and leather goods. The 365 Calvari Steps lead from the Placa Major to the top of the town, where you will enjoy astonishing views and visit the pretty, intimate Church of Nostra Senyora dels Angels. Light spills through the stained glass windows to illuminate its gorgeous interior. Just off the Placa Major are Museo Dionis Bennassar, an unexpected treasure and the home of a famous local artist. His paintings are displayed around the peaceful and inspirational home. There are some lovely boutiques, modern art galleries and fabulous restaurants. Puerto Pollensa is wonderful with its dazzling white sand and shallow, warm water. The marina is amazing, the perfect people-watching spot and also the place for adventure out at sea. Golf fans marvel at the famous Alcanada Golf Club. As well as having superb greens designed by Robert Trent Jones, there are incredible views and a wonderful restaurant.  Alcudia Old Town is within easy reach of La Finquita. The medieval town of Alcudia is Mallorca’s largest tourist hub in the north. It is located on a peninsula, separating the bays of Pollensa and Alcudia. The town boasts an incredible history. The Romans brought an end to piracy and built the town, but Alcudia was then destroyed in the 6th century. The town returned to greatness under the Moors. The walls you see today were added in the early 14th century under the rule of King Jaume II. Can Torro is the library of Alcudia, a beautiful mansion dating back to the early Middle Ages. Alcudia Old Town oozes charm from its lovely sandstone architecture, prettiest in the golden-hued late afternoon sunlight. The compact Old Town is brimming with charming narrow streets, first-class gastronomic restaurants, trendy bars and gorgeous boutiques. Alcudia’s colourful market is very popular, as are the delicious tapas and sangria available throughout the Old Town. Visitors can walk around the entire perimeter of the medieval walls, either on the inside using the Cami de Ronde route or on the outside, using what has now become a gardened walk. From the top of the walls, visitors enjoy wonderful panoramic views of the Bay of Pollensa. You can also visit the bullring, the Roman ruins, the museum, the amphitheatre and Sant Jaume Church. Sant Jaume Church was built in Neo-Gothic style and was finished in 1893 after the first church built in the 14th century fell into disrepair. The church was named after its founder King Jaume II. Art lovers enjoy the fantastic Sa Bassa Blanca Museum created by Yannick and Ben Jakober. Situated in an old palace overlooking the stunning bay and harbour of Alcudia and Port Alcudia from its location on the slopes of Alcanada, it is one of the most impressive exhibition halls in Mallorca. There is a lovely collection of animal sculptures in the garden. The town hosts many cultural events, including traditional fiestas and classical music festivals.  As well as stunning beaches, fantastic historic towns, and lively ports, nature reigns supreme in Mallorca. The island is popular for its dramatic mountains, its fabulous mountain roads and its excellent hiking paths. There are twelve walking routes to explore this beautiful paradise, all offering breathtaking panoramic views of the coast, mountains and marshes set against the intense blue backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea. The ancient monastery Puig de Pollensa sits on top of a mountain close to Pollensa town, offering outstanding views of Pollensa Bay, the Cap de Formentor and the majestic Tramuntana mountains. You can walk up to the Puig in approximately 40 minutes and enjoy some refreshments at the cafe at the top or make use of the picnic tables.  The Serra de Tramuntana was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2011 in an attempt to protect the unique landscape, customs and heritage. The mountains skirt the length of Mallorca’s northern coast. Whether you choose to drive, hike or cycle, there are countless incredible sights to see, from the Moorish terraced hillsides dropping to the sea in Banyalbufar to the stunning clifftop viewing points such as the Mirador de Ricardo Roca and Mirador De Ses Barques, where you can see the lovely resort of Soller in the distance. The blissfully quiet village of Galilea is Mallorca’s highest village. La Torre de Verger is an ancient watchtower perched on the edge of a cliff near Banyalbufar on the west coast. It is a popular spot to watch the breathtaking sunsets. La Reserva Puig Galatzo is a fabulous nature reserve deep in the forest at the western end of the Tramuntana. You can hike the pathways and enjoy the wildlife, pools and waterfalls. The adventure park has Mallorca’s longest zip-wire as well as rock climbing and Tibetan-style suspension bridges. A trip to the mountain range would not be complete without visiting the beautiful Deia. The village is one of the prettiest in Mallorca, and it has become a bit of a playground for the rich.
