San Juan and the North

North of the Sant Miquel road the island changes character. The hills terrace, the traffic thins and the pace drops.

Sant Joan de Labritja

A single street, a white church and a Sunday market that has kept its original spirit. Good bakeries, better people-watching.

Sant Miquel and Sant Llorenç

Two of the prettiest villages on the island, both with serious kitchens hidden behind unremarkable doors.

The coast

Benirràs, Xarraca, Portinatx and a string of coves you walk to. Read the north coast beaches guide.

Who it suits

Families, groups who want privacy, and anyone who would rather drive to a club than live next to one. Browse northern villas.
