700 year-old Santanyi is situated on Majorca?s southeast coast, approximately 90 minutes from capital Palma. Santanyi is a laid-back resort ideally suited to those seeking a relaxed holiday.
Santanyi is home of the honey coloured stone used to build Palma's cathedral. Not to be missed is Santanyi?s weekly market, ideal for trinkets and souvenirs. Santanyi is a delightful mix of old and new - the traditional architecture is made from Mares stone, while Santanyi?s village square offers designer boutiques, restaurants and tapas bars. Santanyi is also home to charming shops selling local handcrafted jewellery.
Blissfully away from the main tourist route, Santanyi offers acres of wild, untouched countryside. Little changed over the centuries, Santanyi is close to a 35km stretch of coastline that includes some of the best-unspoilt coves on the island. A haven for those seeking a laid-back holiday, Santanyi is perfect for relaxing. A short distance from the Mondrago Natural Park, Santanyi offers an ideal location for leisurely strolls and absorbing the local culture.
Santanyi offers numerous local excursions. Just 10 ? 15 minutes drive from Santanyi is the chic holiday resort of Cala D?Or, while nearby Felanitx offers picturesque windmills and an extravagant parish church. You can drive from Santanyi to Felanitx, and brave the twisting road uphill from Felanitx to the mountain top monastery of San Salvador.
