Pollença : ubicació i entorn d'aquesta propietat

The municipality of Pollensa includes, the old town of Pollensa, Cala San Vicente, the Port of Pollensa and Formentor with fantastic clear water caves and sandy beaches. The Old Town is a perfect place to see the ‘authentic’ Mallorca. The centre is a maze of narrow paved streets, the main market square, perhaps the most charming in all of Mallorca, oozes with history and tradition and is the central meeting place for locals and visitors alike, and venue to the colourful weekly Sunday morning market. A place to catch up on the gossip, share tapas and drinks with friends, to write, to paint, to photograph….there is always something going on. The town has more than its fair share of architectural monuments including five beautiful churches, a museum, cloisters, and many stunning privately owned homes within its network of shady streets, which if you are lucky enough to get a peek into, reveal pools and fabulous patio gardens. The town is lively all year round, with charming boutiques, cool bars and a vast choice of good restaurants. Culture runs deep here and Pollensa’s past is full of legends and ancient history. The town calendar is full of important celebrations, Catholic, pagan and historical, processions, mock battles etc. Without doubt, Pollensa is one of the most beautiful areas in the whole of Mallorca and remains a perpetual inspiration to the creative. An International Music Festival is held here every summer, and a very popular Wine Fair in spring (Fira del Vi) and the town is home to an abundance of Art Galleries, artists and craftsmen (ceramics and textile). The ideal starting point for many walks, Pollensa is flanked by the Tramuntana peaks and the magical mount ‘Puig Maria’, emblematic throughout the ages and distinguishable from far and wide. Also cycling, golf, tennis, climbing, yoga and an unending list of sporting / relaxing activities are available. With a successful fusion of modern times and roots that are strongly connected with nature and the land, this is a very special corner of the world within your reach.
