Exclusive coastal retreat
Holidays to Illetas are ideal for couples and families in search of a luxury break in Majorca. Located on the island’s south west coast, it offers pristine beaches surrounded by luscious forests. Explorers will love the rugged terrain surrounding the village, while those wanting to simply spend their days on the beach will find plenty of options. Take a boat trip and explore the surrounding coastline, stopping off in a pretty bay for a swim, picnic, and snorkel.
In the town of Illetas itself you’ll find a street of bars and restaurants, as well as a few shops selling boutique gifts and souvenirs. Visitors wanting to explore Majorca’s more cosmopolitan side will find the island’s capital, Palma, just a 20-minute drive away. Here, you can explore the vibrant marina and its many restaurants and bars, or spend the day exploring the older areas of the town which are filled with historic and cultural sights. For some retail therapy, Palma is also home to plenty of shops.
