Alaró: Get to know the place that is becoming increasingly popular with property buyers via our real estate agents

Are you looking for a property location that offers you a retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and is also located in one of the most popular vacation regions in the world? At Engel & Völkers Mallorca we are pleased to introduce Alaró to you. The charming town in the center of the island is characterized by spectacular landscapes, famous wine-growing areas and a panoramic view of the Serra de Tramuntana. The proximity to the capital Palma is also a good argument for buying a house or a rustic house in Alaró. In our portfolio we present a wide range of high-quality properties in Alaró and other attractive locations in the center of Mallorca, which our real estate agents from Engel & Völkers currently offer for sale.

Life in Alaró: relaxed, idyllic and anything but boring

With its location at the foot of the Tramuntana Mountains and between the capital Palma and Inca, the third largest city on the island, you are in the perfect position to enjoy all the advantages of Mallorca in Alaró. The good infrastructure in Mallorca does not only make the journey from Palma to Alaró extremely comfortable, but also trips to surrounding cities or to the beach. From Alaró you can reach the island's capital in around 35 minutes by car, to Inca or Santa Maria it takes 15-20 minutes and for a day at the beach Playa de Muro it is also only a 35-minute drive. In addition, there are countless other worth seeing villages and towns in the area, according to our real estate agents from Engel & Völkers. Examples include Sóller, Deià, Valldemossa and Fornalutx. Alaró is ideal as a residence for property buyers who are interested in the authentic island life and at the same time want to know the international atmosphere of Palma nearby. The place in the heart of Mallorca is a true pearl of the small town idyll in the midst of enchanting nature. Take bike tours along beautiful olive groves, orange and almond trees or go hiking in the Tramuntana mountain range very close to your newly purchased rustic house or house. Anyone who dares to climb the Castell d ’Alaró - the cultural highlight of the town - will be rewarded with a breathtaking view of the green valleys, the LLanura del Centro plain, to the bay of Palma. The important cultural monument is only preserved in ruins, but it is no less impressive. Partially overgrown, the castle blends into the landscape in a wildly romantic manner and takes the visitor back to the 13th century, in which it was the subject of bitter resistance struggles between Moors and Christians. The Castell d’Alaró can be reached in a two-hour hike from the village center. But the city itself also has a lot to offer. The heart of the place beats around the cobbled town square. Various restaurants, bistros and ice cream parlors attract young and old and, together with the backdrop of the parish church of San Bartolomé and the surrounding houses made of Marès stone typical of Mallorca, create a lot of special flair. There is also a weekly market every Saturday, where owners of a house or rustic house can buy fresh local products not far from their property. Another big attraction is the art market, which is held every second Saturday of the month. In addition to various artisan stands, there are specialties from regional cuisine, dance and live music.
