Mallorca may be seen by some as ‘the other Balearic island’ after the world-famous hedonism of Ibiza, but that’s what makes it often a better choice. Despite having its fair share of party destinations, Mallorca has a grown up feel, with rustic villages and oldy-worldy taverns, secret coves, lazy sands and rugged mountains that attract cycling stars from around the world. Just like Ibiza, renting a villa in Mallorca is the best way to go when it comes to accommodation, giving you a sanctuary to retreat to when you want to come home and kick back. Here is where to find a luxury villa to rent.
