Majorca apartment for a peaceful holiday

The idea of a trip to Majorca may instill a feeling of despair to many people thanks to the negative image generated by clubbing focused resorts like the infamous Magaluf, but Majorca contains many idyllic spots which have been little touched by mass tourism. The North East Coast and provinces of Majorca contain some beautiful spots and the chance to get really involved in local customs and traditions. The charming town and commercial hub of Pollença on the extreme north east tip of the island plays host to a whole range of vibrant festivals throughout the year. From a comfortable majorca apartment you can step out onto the streets and enjoy festivals such as the February carnival alongside locals and tourists.

For pure relaxation and to really get away from it all, the North East of Majorca offers some of the quietest, most unspoilt beaches and coves. The tiny resort of Cala de Sant Vincenc which is located in the vicinity of Pollença, oozes charm and tradition having retained its fishing village character.

It boasts two sandy bays and a dramatic craggy backdrop due to its proximity to the Serra de Tramuntara mountains. Further down the coast towards Alcudia are some of the most spectacular long, sweeping beaches with shallow water. The coastal roads along this part of the island offer spectacular views. Alternatively, for arguably the most spectacular view on the island, head to the Cap de Formentor meeting point of the winds, to the lighthouse at the most Northerly point of the island.
