Maria on the Mountain

Maria on the Mountain: Balearic Islands

With views of the stunning Tramuntana mountains and the Puig de María Monastery, this Balearic villa is a perfect spot to call home. Located just a short drive from the sandy beaches of Llenaire and the historic town of Pollença, this home offers you a calm base to retreat to after a day perusing the Sunday farmers market in Pollença or kayaking off on Puerto Pollensa.

Wake up blissfully refreshed in one of the tranquil bedrooms, open up the traditional shutters and feel the warmth of the morning sun on your face as your turn the pages of your holiday read. If you’re looking for a slow start, step out into the garden with a cup of coffee and admire your mountain views. Work on your golden glow from one of the poolside loungers, then dive into the cooling waters of your pool for a refreshing swim. The balmy afternoons are best spent playing a few games of ping pong before grilling up some local fish on the barbecue. Where better to savour a meal than alfresco with your loved ones?

Whether you've been exploring in town, enjoying a siesta on the beach, or discovering the sights in Alcudia, be sure to share a cold glass of sangria at sunset overlooking the tree-studded hills.
