Sa Rota de Can Beca

Come to this charming two-bedroom whitewashed home on a family olive oil estate for the best of all worlds. Sink into complete peace and serenity, surrounded by nature, or walk 25 minutes into the pretty port town of Alcúdia for excellent tapas and black rice, a local speciality.

When cooking at home, you’ll find basics in the kitchen cupboards along with local wine and homegrown and pressed olive oil. Alternatively, the charming owners can rustle up Fideuá (a type of paella) or a Mallorcan dish of rabbit and prawns with garlic. Dine at the large table indoors or throw open bifold doors to the covered terrace – the star of the show.

Spend your days lounging by the pool (fed by a well) and listening to birds in the trees. Evenings are for stargazing or stretching out by the suspended wood-burner in the beamed sitting room. Tumble into a comfy bed – the master has panoramic views to enjoy while you sip your morning tea in bed.
