As Gertrude Stein once said, “Mallorca is paradise, if you can restrain yourself”. A corner of the Mediterranean considered by many as one of the best places in the world to live.

The largest of the Balearic Islands has 3.640sqms of unique landscape bathed in turquoise blue waters and the impressive Tramuntana Mountains as a backdrop. This is a magnet for many artists who have been inspired by their shape and form and the magical atmosphere surrounding these mountains. 

Untamed nature lives side by side with residential areas and the capital city: Palma.  Whichever you prefer, if you are attracted by the Mediterranean lifestyle, you will find a place to call your home in Mallorca.
