Where to stay in Mallorca
Where to stay in Mallorca, the best areas:
We begin this section of our Mallorca travel guide by acknowledging that the idea of accommodation or lodging is always a subjective subject. Many tourists travel to Mallorca throughout the year, so Mallorca is an island with a great diversity of hotels all over the island. So, below we will offer you different accommodation options in different areas in Mallorca and you will be able to choose one or the other according to your interest and your needs or preferences.
Where to stay in Mallorca? Best areas to travel with your family:
If you are travelling as a family or as a couple and you are looking for a quiet area where you can relax, we recommend the northern area of Mallorca: Alcudia, Playa de Muro or Can Picafort. They are all safe and comfortable places, but above all with a wide range of things to see and activities to do in Mallorca: attractions, excursions and entertainment. There you have markets such as the one in Can Picafort, or the majestic Cap de Formentor and two hundred and twenty metres above sea level, on the very edge of the island of Mallorca you have the lighthouse of Formentor. In the northern part of Mallorca you also have the Albufera de Mallorca, the largest and most important wetland in the Balearic Islands.
Where to stay in the north of Mallorca:
The Costa de Llevant (in the Northeast of the island) is in general a beautiful place, very quiet. It is a bit far away from Palma and the airport, but if you are looking for a relaxing family holiday, this is an option that you should not miss. The north of Mallorca offers, in short, unspoilt nature, long beaches of fine white sand, coves with harbours, traditional markets (street markets) and many other places of interest that you can enjoy during your trip to Mallorca.
Where to stay in the south of Mallorca:
In the south you have the colony of Sant Jordi, a Mallorcan locality very much in demand for its cultural relevance. Few places in Mallorca preserve the spirit of the Mediterranean fishing villages as well as Colonia Sant Jordi. You will notice the enigmatic and eloquent silence that, together with the sea breeze, enriches the best setting for a sunset stroll along the coast. We don’t know why it has this nostalgic and familiar effect, but Colonia de Sant Jordi has a special char.
Where to stay in Mallorca? Best party and nightlife areas:
If you are travelling to Mallorca in search of partying, extreme fun and high-voltage atmosphere, then I recommend Playa El Arenal, Can Pastilla and Cala d’Or, in the southeast of the island. Here the offer of low-cost hotels and restaurants is very varied and, above all, that: very, very cheap. This area is frequented by travellers of all ages and families with children, but the predominant profile is that of the young tourist, who is into nightlife and partying. Do you feel identified? Well, read on, there’s more…
Where to stay in Palma de Mallorca? Best areas in Palma de Mallorca:
The centre of Palma de Mallorca’s nightlife is the Paseo Marítimo. Especially the last stretch of Palma’s promenade near the harbour. Here you will find everything from live music and traditional Spanish dances to venues that prefer electronic beats and international music hits. Mallorca offers numerous options for those looking for an unforgettable nightlife experience.
Mallorca’s nightlife (wherever you go) has a unique character. The island has managed to fuse traditional Spanish elements with the most techno trends. There is a fun atmosphere here, where there is always room and space to find something just right for you. When night falls in this Mediterranean paradise, Mallorca becomes a hive of excitement and passion. You won’t be short of movement. In Mallorca, the party is always guaranteed.
