This sleepy little pueblo feels a million miles away from the busy resorts on the nearby coast and is part of undiscovered Mallorca. Campanet is now very much a residential town of around 2600 inhabitants and is not really on the radar for most tourists.
Most of the residents here now rely on the tourism and construction industries from the northern coastal resorts of Pollensa and Alcudia. It is a good place to visit if you are interested in experiencing a little authentic Mallorcan life. It is also very well connected to several major towns and resorts by the road network. The caves of Campanet were discovered as recently as 1945 and were found by a man digging a well. These caves have many beautiful natural rock formations and underground lakes.
Pollensa – just 9.4 km away Casa Rafa Petit is located between the towns of Pollensa and Puerto Pollensa, the eastern end of the Serra de Tramuntana. Pollensa is an enchanting Mallorcan town packed with ancient blonde stone architecture, Pollenca doesn’t feel like many of the other towns which have surrendered to tourism.
Although tourists have long been attracted here, Pollensa has learned to accept and adapt to tourism without losing its soul. Wander the streets that lead to the church to discover traditional outlets selling a range of foods, arts and crafts as well as cafes, restaurants and bars. The highlight of the week is the authentic and traditional market that occurs every Sunday morning.
Get there early to secure the freshest fruit, vegetables, meat and fish. The Calvari steps provide the best view of the local area but be warned that to get to the top, you have to climb 365 of them. However, the climb is worth it, and the views definitely do not disappoint from the top.
Puerto Pollensa just 15.7 km away, offers wonderful scenery, beautiful sandy beaches and a laid-back, friendly atmosphere, make Puerto Pollensa a favourite destination for many. With hotels on the seafront that still retain an old-fashioned air, having been built long before the concrete boom of the 1960s developments.
Today the town attracts mainly British and Madrileño families looking for something more than the hustle and bustle of the south coast resorts. With wonderful scenery, beautiful sandy beaches and a laid-back, friendly atmosphere, makes Puerto Pollensa a favourite destination for many.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
