Mallorca, My Paradise

Monday, August 24th, 2009

Palacio ca sa Galesa is in itself already a paradise to live in yet there must be something in Mallorca Spain for it to benefit such a very good travel accommodation. The place reminds me of fairytales from Cinderella, Snow White and sleeping beauty. Honestly it has all the components for you to think that Mallorca is sculpted to accommodate princesses and princes.

My general impression of Mallorca has by far exceeded my expectations. I did not expect to find miles of beaches that are very good to lie down and bask under the sun. I did not expect to gaze at castles, towers and spires. I did not expect to be given the chance to gaze at mountains and mountains and endless of mountains.

Santa ponsa Majorca has enough on its sleeves to entertain thousands of sun-seeking guests. It is home to several five star hotel and resorts and beautifully maintained beaches. I got to admit that Santa Ponsa is never a place to rub elbows with the locals and thus experience that Spanish culture straight from them. Yet it has a good dose of nightlife, resorts and beach all in equilibrium with each other to last you a lifetime.

Cala Millor is another beach area to explore. Restaurants, hotel and bars abound in this area thus you are not short of something to do. Yet, the beaches are the number one attractions. Cala Millor is also a famous destination in this region of Mallorca. The promenade is one place you should stop for a while just o discover that you wanted to stay longer.

A mixture of mountain and sea attractions is the forte of Serra de Tramuntana; the lovers of mountains and beach will have their primetime of their lives here. Mountain hiking and meeting the locals along the way is one activity that many enjoy. While some part of Serra de Tramuntana can give you access to crystal blue water without the crowd.

How about you what are your favorite spots in Mallorca?
