Marquesa

Representing a seamless marriage of quality with convenience, Marquesa has it all! Wonderfully appointed and superbly situated within walking distance of one of Mallorca’s longest sandy beaches and all amenities, this is not only one of our most desirable properties but also one of the most sought after locations in our Balearic portfolio. Universally appealing across all ages groups it is impossible not be impressed by the fact that all the key ingredients for a memorable, relaxing holiday are just a short stroll away. To put it simply… arrive, unpack and put the car keys in a drawer!

A captivating sense of space and style permeates the house interior where all rooms are well proportioned and attractively decorated; the colour scheme striking in its simplicity. A devotee of local art the property owner has adorned the walls with eye-catching pictures of notable island scenes plus a selection of individual artefacts collected on his personal travels, some obvious in their detail, others more abstract but all enhancing the already appealing ambience still further.

Furnishings are predominantly modern with a subtle classical twist, something particularly evident in the grand principal bedroom where the carved Regency-style chair and imposing chest of drawers are notable family heirlooms handed down through several generations. Exposed wooden floors and pristine marble bathrooms bring a stately elegance and help amplify the already spacious feel of this fine property while two separate seating areas, one upstairs and one downstairs allow larger parties or sharing families their own space in which to relax with a book or laptop.

Bordered by ample sun terracing, an in-built barbecue and a long shaded dining terrace, the private swimming pool is much longer than average and, with Roman steps across the entire width of one end, is particularly user-friendly for younger (or older?) family members as well as non-swimmers.

Testament to its reputation as one of the most family-friendly locations in Mallorca Port de Pollença enjoys one of the highest ratios of repeat-visitors on the island and yet, at the same time, retains a wonderfully laid back atmosphere, even in the height of summer.  Also at Marquesa everything is ‘on the doorstep’ as it is only 150m to the sweeping, gently-shelving horseshoe bay (along which you will find watersports, scuba diving, boat trips, various eateries and a plush yacht club), 250m to the nearest restaurant and 950m to the main square; the hub of the town with its weekly market, comprehensive amenities and vast choice of restaurants to suit all tastes and pockets. Only slightly further afield are a nature reserve, two golf courses, floodlit tennis courts, a wealth of cycling and walking trails as well as scenic drives through the Tramuntana mountains or to Mallorca’s most northerly point at Cap Formentor.
