The largest Balearic island is not just a party spot as everyone thinks, but has a lot to offer. The island has beautiful pure sand beaches, culturally significant historical sights, incredible landscapes from sea to mountains and charming petite villages. There are so many activities to do here for one person or the entire extended family.
Reason Number One
Staying in a villa is definitely top of the list! Majorca makes it possible to have an entire house with a private pool for the entire family to enjoy. That’s why these kid-friendly Majorca villas are some of the best choices for staying here. Skip the crowded hotel room and having to keep an eye on the kids at the public pool. Here they can splash all day with no one to disturb. Maybe the best perk of a private luxury villa is that everyone gets their own room. No more sibling fights!
Reason Number Two
Eating together might possibly be the best memory your children have of growing up. Some of the best restaurants for family time are,
The Santosha is an affordable restaurant with a great menu for young ones. It also has a kids playroom! Parents can enjoy their delicious brunch and the kids can go make friends and burn some energy.
At the Balcon de Maria you can enjoy sharing a pitcher of sangria and gazing over the Santa Ponsa Bay. The children can have fun in the playroom and hopefully sleep a good long night. If your kids enjoy trying new foods, definitely try the delectable tapas menu and traditional paella.
Don Caracol is a required spot on the island. With an incredible menu of snail tapas, freshly grilled meat, and scrumptious flavourful fish there’s something for everyone. If that doesn’t convince you then a picture perfect Spanish setting reasonable prices and an outdoor playground with beautiful birds to watch should!
Reason Number Three
Mallorca is well known for beaches two hundred and sixty two of them to be exact! But which one to choose? The most popular with tourists is Alcudia Beach, a long stretch of white sand and clear water. It’s posh and perfect for families wanting the luxurious life.
Cala Mondrago Beach is the most beautiful on the east coast. Soft white sand and pine trees make this an ideal spot to relax.
Camp de Mar Majorca and Calo des Moro are smaller beaches. Secluded by cliffs and certified for their water quality, these spots have become very popular. If you visit during off season then definitely check them out.
Reason Number Four
Peak tourist season is summer time. There are many festivals and events during the warmer months. Artdemossa is an open-air exhibition that takes place in July in Valldemossa. The Festes d’Estiu Valldemossa you can enjoy art expositions like artisan displays, paintings, photography, sculpture, musicals and the theatre. Deia International Music Festival brings local, as well as artists from all over the world together on the island.
Reason Number Five
If you can get a minute away from the kids, then Majorca has an exciting proposition for you! The famous Mallorca party spots around the south are best known for their electronic music and famous DJ’s
Another hotspot is the town of Palma. There are districts with cosy bars such as the fantastic Abaco Cocktail bar which resembles a lavish baroque palace.
The small city of Puerto Portals is quite popular for the party goers scene on the southwest coast of the island and is the glamorous yachting destination for celebrities. Here you will find high end restaurants, designer boutiques and first-class clubs.
