A Hidden Retreat in the Heart of the Tramuntana

- The Finca

Nestled high above the Mediterranean on Mallorca’s spectacular west coast, this charming guesthouse is part of a centuries-old finca surrounded by olive groves, almond trees and the untouched beauty of the Serra de Tramuntana.

Although located on the same estate, the guesthouse is a completely independent home with its own private entrance, terraces and outdoor spaces, offering peace, privacy and the feeling of having your own finca in one of the island’s most beautiful settings.

The house extends over approximately 150 m² on two levels. On the ground floor are two comfortable bedrooms, two bathrooms and a spacious walk-in wardrobe. Upstairs, a light-filled open-plan living area forms the heart of the home: a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, comfortable lounge and fireplace all open onto a large terrace-balcony. In addition to the upper balcony terrace, the house enjoys its own private outdoor terrace directly in front of the entrance, furnished with a dining table, chairs, sun loungers and a barbecue.
One of its most special features is a traditional Mallorcan safreig — a 30-metre-long water reservoir fed by the estate’s own mountain spring. The crystal-clear water flows naturally from the Tramuntana and provides a unique place for swimming, cooling off and enjoying the landscape. Far removed from the feel of a conventional swimming pool, it offers an authentic connection to the land and the rhythms of Mallorcan country life.

From our finca, the views are simply extraordinary. The Mediterranean stretches endlessly to the horizon, and the sunsets over the water are among the most beautiful Mallorca has to offer. Whether enjoying breakfast in the morning sun, working remotely with a sea view or spending evenings by the fireplace after a walk through the mountains, the house offers a rare combination of authenticity, comfort and nature.

The finca itself sits on approximately 30,000 m² of terraced land planted with around 100 olive trees and 100 almond trees. The surroundings are quiet and natural, with hiking trails beginning directly from the property and the picturesque village of Banyalbufar only a short walk away.

This is not a holiday apartment but a place to truly live, slow down and experience Mallorca beyond tourism. Ideal for remote workers, writers, artists, nature lovers or anyone seeking a longer stay immersed in the unique atmosphere of the Tramuntana.

- Life in Banyalbufar

Banyalbufar is one of Mallorca’s hidden gems: a small, picturesque village nestled between mountains and sea, where life still follows a slower rhythm. Famous for its ancient stone terraces that descend dramatically towards the Mediterranean, the village has retained its authentic character and remains largely untouched by mass tourism.

Despite its peaceful atmosphere, Banyalbufar offers everything needed for daily life. You will find a local grocery store stocked with all essential necessities, several small cafés, a pharmacy and a handful of restaurants where residents and visitors gather throughout the year. The small harbour and natural stone beach below the village invite refreshing swims in crystal-clear water and provide a beautiful setting for watching the sea throughout the changing seasons.

For more extensive shopping and services, the charming town of Esporles is only about 15 minutes away by car. There you will find larger supermarkets, schools, medical services, a weekly Saturday market and all the conveniences of everyday life, while still enjoying the atmosphere of a traditional Mallorcan town. The capital Palma is only 35-45 minutes away.

One of the greatest luxuries of living in Banyalbufar is the balance between seclusion and connection: surrounded by nature and some of the most spectacular landscapes on the island, yet close enough to Palma for work, culture and city life whenever desired.

Long-term rentals preferred (minimum stay: 3 months).

Please note: Access is via a private mountain road with a few narrow bends. A smaller car is generally recommended.
