Mallorca,
beyond the obvious.
Mountain terraces, inland fincas,
contemporary culture, local tables and a
Mediterranean island with more than one rhythm.
One island. More than one way to live it.
Mallorca changes completely from one road to the next. The Serra de Tramuntana rises above the western sea, while the centre of the island unfolds through vineyards, almond trees, villages and old agricultural estates.
Annua connects both: Gran Hotel Margalida looks out from Banyalbufar towards the horizon; Son Xotano opens onto the quieter life of the Mallorcan interior. Outside summer, the island becomes easier to read, beaches empty, markets return to local life and the mountains invite longer days outdoors.
Our Mallorca favourites
Places, rituals and addresses selected for the way they reveal the destination, not simply for being on a list.
Where Mallorca shops before lunch
Mercat de Santa Catalina: Fresh fish, seasonal produce, flowers, wine and conversations between stalls. Go early, walk without a plan and decide what you feel like eating afterwards.
A swim worth missing something for
Cala Banyalbufar: Hidden beneath the historic terraces of Banyalbufar, this small cove is where the Tramuntana finally meets the Mediterranean. Close enough to Margalida to go before lunch. Hidden enough to feel like you earned it.
A day through contemporary Mallorca
Step inside Joan Miró’s world through the Sert Studio, Son Boter and the spaces where the artist lived and worked in Mallorca. Art, architecture and Mediterranean light in one of the island’s most singular cultural visits.
A view worth being late for
Son Marroig at sunset. Drive towards Deià as the afternoon begins to soften and stop above Sa Foradada. One of those views that makes arriving late somewhere else feel entirely reasonable.
