Mallorca

The enchanting Mallorca is an island of contrasts, offering rugged mountains, cliffs dropping to the sea, and a myriad of coves and beaches. Its landscapes of olive, almond and citrus groves, orchard gardens and tiny rural hamlets seem to defy the onslaught of time. 

The village of Deià borders on the municipal areas of Valldemossa, Bunyola and Soller.

The greatest lover of the Tramutana Mountains, the Archduke Louis Salvador, assured everyone that Sa Foradada alone was worth more than he had paid for all the land he had bought.
