About the home

Great for all year round relaxation in a thriving local community (not simply a tourist town). If you like walking, swimming, cycling , playing golf or just chilling out, this is a great location with a wide range of interests catered for. The apartment is close to a selection of beautiful sandy beaches all within easy walking distance. Alternatively take a walk from the apartment up to the lighthouse on the headland to gain some great views across the island.

The evening is an ideal time to stroll down to the port area, with a varied choice of fine restaurants all facing the sea along a mile long stretch of 'paseo maritimo', meandering along the coast and free of traffic.
Alternatively a 5 minute walk gets you to the small cove of Cala Lliteras where you can enjoy a quiet drink at Sa Cova at the water's edge, unless it's Monday evening and you're in for a treat with live music as well (seasonal)!

The second floor apartment is located in a quiet part of the town with very little traffic noise, so that in the evening you can enjoy a quiet drink on the balcony and watch the sun set over the mountains, or take a walk into town and join in the hustle and bustle around the port area.

Facilities

Further details indoors:
The open plan living area includes a separate dining space adjacent to the modern fully eqipped kitchen (there's even an ice crusher and large mugs!), and a lounging area with 2 double settees leading onto the patio doors to access the good size balcony. There is also a separate utility room off the kitchen.
Bedroom 1 has patio doors onto the balcony and good sized cpds with it's own en-suite with bath/shower, whb and wc, whilst bedroom 2 has a shower/ whb/ wc adjacent.
Glazing on 3 sides makes this a very light airy apartment .
Electric ceiling mounted 3 speed fans in the bedrooms are great if it gets too warm at night.

If you are feeling tired you can use the lift instead of the staircase. Great if you've been shopping !

Further details outdoors:
There is a hardwood table and 4 chairs for the balcony. Also provided are 3 sun loungers and 2 beach umbrella's that are stored in the basement garage (lift access). The pool is available for use all year round.

Closeby is a 'zona verde' for children, and also for adults with an outdoor exercise circuit, if you can work out how to use the equipment ! Also in the park an outdoor table tennis table.

Gated access to apartment block with buzzer (or key) entry.

Cala Agulla beach 15 minutes coastal walk

The Mallorca/Majorca region

Majorca is the largest of the Balearic Islands located to the East of Barcelona in the Mediterranean Sea (size approx 80 miles x 50 miles, so all places on the island are fairly close).
It has always been a particular favourite with British, Spanish and German tourists. The island climate means the temperatures are less extreme than mainland Spain, which is a real bonus these days with climate change. Along the north west coast runs a range of mountains rising to 4,000ft. (see photo) South of Mallorca is flatter and our north east side is a mix of hills and plains.
The area has many popular resorts to visit including Alcudia with its enormous golden sandy beach and the historic town of Arta. The region is also home to the hill top Castle at Capdepera and Mallorca's well known tourist attraction, the Caves of Drach is only a 25 minute drive away. We have also our local Caves of Arta (adjacent to Canyamel).
For nature lovers closeby is the Albufera with it's 8 hides where you can sit and watch migratory birds at all times of the year. We recently saw a Little Bittern which is apparently quite rare.
for more information see: http://www.mallorcaweb.com/reports/natural-areas/albufera-in-mallorca/
For walkers and off road-cyclists there is the nearby Parque de Llevant (nature reserve) which is a peninsula
(see a slide show on: http://www.flickr.com/photos/centaurosdelmar/tags/llevant/)
Other places of interest include places such as the Lluc monastery , Pollensa and Fornalutz .

The Cala Ratjada / Rajada / Cala Agulla area

Cala Ratjada is a peninsula situated in the north east of the island which is pleasantly quieter than the south west of the island. The hotels here are of modest size. From a distance the dominant feature of the town is still it's medieval church clock tower.
There is a traditional market square with pine trees offering shade (market every Sat morning).
Locally there are a number of superb, natural, sandy beaches including: Cala Agulla, Cala Gat, Son Moll, sa Font de sa Cala and Cala Mesquida.
The lively port area offering boat excursions etc. to keep you fully occupied.
Local activities also include 3 great Scuba diving/adventure centres www.mero-diving.com (Cala Lliteras) or 'Skualo' (Cala Rajada) or 'Dive and Fun' (sa Font de sa Cala ).
Tennis clay courts are locally available open to the public at 10/12 euros per hour (we know of 2 locations) each with bar and dining facilities and friendly owners.
If you like horse riding, there are 2 ranches very close by where you can even go 'night-time' riding.
For golfers: 10 minutes by car is the immaculately kept golf course of Capdepera (with it's 6 lakes!) and has an excellent website, or you could test your game at Pula (Olazabal connection), Son Servera or Canyamel all within a 15 minute drive away.
You can also visit Colonia St Pere for quiet relaxation and spectacular views across Alcudia bay and the headland of Formentor, or visit Canyamel for it's quiet local beach and beachside restaurants.
For windsurfers or kite surfers Son Serra de Marina is a 25 minute drive and equipment hire is reasonably priced (contact Andy at www.Kiten-Mallorca.de).
Throughout the year 'live music' Friday nights at Cafe 3 in Cala Rajada (see http://www.cafe3mallorca.com/)
also Monday nights (seasonal) live music outside at the Dive centre (see http://www.sa-cova.com/)

How to get there

Reset Map

Fly to Palma airport, Ryanair and Easyjest often offer good value flights. The apartment is approximatley 55 minutes drive from the airport on good main roads (by-passing all towns en route) and easily located once you reach the resort.
For car hire try the various internet comparison sites as these prices tend to be cheaper than going to companies direct. We would recommend that you choose a company that has an office in the terminal building to make your transition from air to land that bit smoother. We generally use Aurigacrown.
If you wish to travel by bus there are various 'shuttle' services from the airport dropping off at the nearest apartment hotel which is Turo Pins only a short walk from the apartment (the cost is currently approx. 24 euros return per person). example: http://www.palma-airport-transfers.com, see also 'resort hoppa' and 'transunion'.

“Beautiful Appartment...beautiful Cala Ratjada” Enjoyed a delightful two weeks in the well appointed and comfortable appartment. Appartment is exactly as described, great views in a quiet location yet close to town centre. Well appointed and comfortable with a few nice extras that you get from a private rental. Cala Ratjada is a nice resort with lots to see and do, fantastic beaches, superb snorkelling and lots of great places to eat out. We will be back..>!

Guestbook for Cala Agulla

Returned 16th Aug 2010.......
Hi Colin
Just a line to say thank you for letting us use your lovely apartment. We had a very nice holiday. Everything connected, there were no delays with the flight or the resort hopper and thanks to your detailed information no surprises waiting!
We managed very well without a car, we took the local bus to Cala Mesquida and walked to Agulla and Cala Gat. We snorkled everywhere, including Cala Literas which was great. We ate in most nights sitting on the balcony, which with the views, was an absolute pleasure and eating tapas in the port was also reasonably priced. The local market on Saturday was great for fruit and veg and Eroski filled the gaps. Nick fished off the rocks near the diving club and explored the area behind the flat up the steps. We walked that way to Cala Gat a couple of times.
The days we stayed around the pool were lovely and quiet and all the residents/owners were really friendly too us.
The views and the location were excellent; they ticked all the boxes for us and more besides.

.....wishing we were still out in Mallorca in your delightful apartment. It provided everything we needed and was attractive, spacious, light and bright and well equipped. Excellent. Thanks a lot....
It is a beautiful area which we did not know previously and with lots to do and see
...but the local snorkelling, particularly at Cala Agulla was the best I have known in the Med. Octopus, moray eel, barracuda, bass, mullet, wrasse, bream, weaver fish - you name it - and so tame. Even went swimming with a cormorant! And S'albufuera which we did know and the Llevant area which we didn't know were wonderful.
