A Mallorca island tour is the easiest way to see the mountain towns, beaches, and wineries outside Palma without renting a car or driving the winding roads yourself. We booked a private tour and were amazed at how much we saw in one day, from rocky coves to historic villages to a winery in the hills. Here’s where we went, what we tasted, and who…
A sunset boat tour in Palma de Mallorca was the perfect way to end our trip to this beautiful island. We sailed on a brand new catamaran with a welcome drink, five rounds of really good tapas, and amazing views of the cathedral as we pulled out of the marina. We even had a gorgeous orange moon glowing over the city on the way back….
We already love Spanish tapas, so a Palma de Mallorca food tour was near the top of our list before we arrived in town. We wanted to try the Mallorcan versions of traditional Spanish dishes and a few you’ll only find on the island. We were also looking for a local guide to direct us to the right places and tell us the stories behind…
Palma has a ton of hotels and all the photos are promising, so deciding where to stay in Palma de Mallorca was harder than we expected. We researched so many, narrowed it down to these top three, and visited them all during our stay. But we only chose one as our actual accommodation, and it was absolutely the best hotel in Palma de Mallorca for…
Palma is the heart of this gorgeous Spanish island, and it has many hotels that promise a rooftop cocktail with a cathedral view. So it took us a while to narrow it down before booking Nakar Hotel Palma de Mallorca. We’re so glad we did, but there are a few things worth knowing before you book. Here’s a breakdown of everything we experienced, including the…
We spent weeks going back and forth on which beach town to book before we settled on Cala Ratjada, Mallorca. It’s on the far east coast and takes a little over an hour to reach from Palma, but it gave us exactly the mix we wanted. Is it also right for your trip to Mallorca? Here’s what the town is really like, what it costs…
Cala Ratjada restaurants line the pedestrian walk along the sea, and from the outside they can start to look interchangeable, but they’re not. Some spots were touristy with mediocre service, and menus the size of phone books, while others had elevated dishes and excellent, friendly staff. Here’s where we recommend for tapas, a high-end dinner, breakfast over the water, and the best happy hour deal…
We spent weeks going back and forth on which beach town to book in Mallorca. We finally decided on Cala Ratjada, and we’re so glad we did. It had the right balance of relaxation and activities, with a fantastic seafront walkway lined with bars, restaurants, and hotels along the water. We put this list together of the top Cala Ratjada hotels for every budget and…
Etihad business class has a strong reputation, but seat selection matters more than we expected on the older 777-300 aircraft. In this review, we break down everything from check-in and lounge access to the in-flight experience and what we paid, plus the big seat mistake we wish we’d known before booking.
With so many options in Mallorca, we had a hard time picking a beach town and hotel for our vacation. We’re so glad we chose Grupotel Aguait in Cala Ratjada. The resort is a little off the path from the heart of town, but the quiet setting and easy walkway into town gave us the right balance at a price that made sense on an…
