From the buzzing capital of Palma to peaceful countryside retreats and buzzing nightlife, there’s a little of everything on the largest of the Balearic Islands. The historic city of Palma is a charming town with a wide choice of restaurants and bars, great shopping and beautiful architecture. In the north, Mallorca’s landscapes are defined by the magnificent Tramuntana Mountain range, with beautiful villages such as Deià, Valldemossa and Soller. The south and southeast offers swathes of gorgeous sandy beaches and vast salt plains. If you are looking for all-night action, head to the most developed part of the island in the west, where the resorts of Magaluf and Palma Nova keep the good times rolling into the early hours.
While most holidaymakers choose the summer months with the promise of perfect sunny days and pristine sandy beaches, the island’s mild winters and pleasant climate make it a year-round destination.
The average price of unleaded 95 petrol in Mallorca is 1.468 €/litre.
The type of car you choose depends on what you plan to do and the length of your rental. If you are travelling independently or as a couple, and you plan to spend your time between the busy city or resort towns and the beach, you might find our range of compact cars, economy cars or minis will suit your needs. With a compact car you’ll find narrow streets and parking a breeze. If you plan to explore further, consider upgrading to a mid-size or luxury vehicle for added comfort.
If you are travelling as a family, check out our range of SUVs from the Prestige range, or our spacious family saloons that have more storage for luggage ad will keep everyone comfortable.
There are several car parks in Palma de Mallorca. The most convenient location is the Saba public car park on Plaza de San Antonio, just a short walk from the Cathedral of Palma de Mallorca.
Mallorca is a top summer destination but is equally worth visiting once the winter months roll around. Here are five ways to enjoy Mallorca and its surrounding areas during the colder weather.
Enjoy a scenic drive
With a hire car, the possibilities to explore Mallorca are endless. Head to Serra de Tramuntana to enjoy the dramatic backbone of the island, while the Sa Calobra Hairpin Route offers a winding cliffside down to the sea. You can also experience breathtaking coastal views at Cap de Formentor, the northernmosgt lighthouse on the island. Winter traffic is favourable so you can enjoy the roads without restrictions.
Take the Almond Blossom Route
This peaceful circular driving route north of Palma is a highlight of late January and February. At its peak, the fields turn pink and white with blooming almond trees. Along the way, you can enhance your road trip by taking in the scenery and stopping at some traditional villages such as Bunyola and Caimari.
Explore the Old Town
Park on the city outskirts and walk into the historic heart of Palma. The old town features a number of highlights including the cathedral and adjacent Royal Palace of La Almudaina, both of which look even more delightful in the winter. Make sure you head to Ca'n Joan de S'Aigo for hot chocolate afterwards.
Witness the January Sant Antoni & Sant Sebastià Bonfire Festivals
If you’re visiting in mid-January, towns like Sa Pobla, Manacor, and Palma celebrate the festivals of Sant Antoni and Sant Sebastià. This combines large community bonfires with traditional music, dancing devils, and outdoor barbecues, creating a warm atmosphere to remember.
Cosy up for a traditional roast lamb lunch
The town of Alaró is home to the ruins of the 15th-century Castell d'Alaró. Park mid-mountain and hike up to experience the historical site for yourself. Reward yourself afterwards with slow-roasted, wood-fired Mallorcan lamb at a rustic restaurant.
With so many more rustic landscapes and pretty hilltop towns to visit—including Sóller, embedded in the island’s valley of oranges, and Deià, which resides by a ravine at the foot of the Puig del Teix mountain—hire a car with Avis in Mallorca and uncover the island’s most scenic sun spots, inaccessible without your own transport.
The earliest settlers in Mallorca were a Neolithic community that constructed stone compounds, the remains of which can still be explored at archaeological sites across the island. Waves of conquest continued to ravage its shores in the centuries that followed, with Roman, Visigoth, Muslim and Christian crusaders each plundering the island in turn. Fortifications designed to ward off such invaders—the Gothic-style Castell de Bellver, the inaccessible Castell d'Alaró and medieval Castell de Capdepera—are imposing reminders of Mallorca’s past.
Hikers can take their pick between the Serra de Tramuntana in the west or the Serres de Llevant in the east, each spanning approximately 70km in length. Wind your way up to reach captivating vistas of clear, blue waters and honey-coloured houses in the villages below. The glimmering Mirador de Mal Pas and the Talaia d’Albercutx watchtower make spectacular viewing points along the Tramuntana mountain roads.
Its charming historic capital Palma is a 20-minute drive away from the airport. It’s a city of spires: the signature Gothic steeples that crown the 13th-century Palma de Mallorca Cathedral; the sky-piercing turrets of the Moorish Royal Palace of La Almudaina; and Castell de Bellver’s imposing towers just outside Palma. Beyond its architecture, browse Palma’s elegant boutiques, tasteful galleries and lively tapas bars to discover a buzzing cultural hub.
As lovely as Mallorca’s capital is, sun-worshippers tend to head straight for the white sandy resorts surrounding it. The island’s compact size means that in less than an hour from the city, you can be exploring its wild northernmost peninsulas or sunbathing on the shores of the horseshoe-shaped Badia d’Alcúdia.
From the balmy glamour that bejewels Mallorca’s prestigious Puerto Portals—20 minutes southwest along the coast from Palma—to the ancient laid-back town of Puerto Pollença, an hour’s drive north, there’s a tempo to suit all tastes. Puerto Pollença’s narrow streets and pretty squares are dotted with cafés—an ideal perch to while away an afternoon watching village life pass by.
