Villa Canacati – Pollença, Mallorca, Balearic Islands
On the outskirts of one of Mallorca’s most charming towns, Canacati sits in large gardens looking up to the Puig de Maria Monastery. The location could hardly be better – just a short walk into the old town of Pollença with its restaurants and shopping, and not that far from some of the island’s best beaches and the beauty of the Tramuntana mountains. This is a really popular villa for families, especially for those preferring not to be too rural.
Spacious inside and out, the villa has been renovated to a high spec and the gardens are well laid out, full of native Mediterranean plants and flowers. The terraces have large daybeds, shady awnings and a covered dining area, just what you need for a relaxed day by the pool, and a surround sound system and cool lighting for a lively evening. There’s also a separate games room in the grounds, with cardio equipment, table football, pool table and table tennis.

Pollença
Pollença is one of our favourite destinations in Mallorca. The atmospheric square is full of really good restaurants, and the boutiques and galleries lining the streets are a magnet for shopaholics. Every Sunday, the old town fills with market stalls, brimming with local and artisanal produce, giving the entire place a real vibrancy. From here, it’s an easy drive to long sandy beaches, tiny secluded coves, and scenic mountain villages. And if you’d like to explore the coast by boat, there are plenty of places in Puerto Pollença to rent one.
