A short walk from the centre of Pollenca, a beautiful town at the foothills of Mallorca’s Serra de Tramuntana mountain range, Villa Pollenca sits in neat sun-dappled gardens hidden by huge palm fronds in a quiet residential suburb. The town’s bohemian feel has lured a slew of artists and creatives over the years, and its narrow cobbled streets are a treasure trove of tapas bars, smart boutiques and artisan workshops. Its legendary Sunday market takes over the main square each week, showcasing a bounty of local produce and traditional Mallorcan crafts, and nearby Port de Pollenca’s string of sheltered beaches are a haven for families and watersports enthusiasts. Keen cyclists can tackle iconic trails slicing through the mountains, and there are a number of spectacular walking and hiking routes within easy reach of the villa.
Fresh from a recent overhaul, Villa Pollenca is anchored around a number of light-flooded, free-flowing living and social spaces. Perfect for two families or a large group, peppy modern art, rattan furnishings and bright textiles have been used to zhuzh up whitewashed walls and blonde wood floors, and the villa’s five ensuite air-conditioned bedrooms all look out onto views of either the gardens or the mountains.
