In the heart of the island of Mallorca, Algaida is located about 20 kilometres east of Palma. Cultural, historical and exotic, this destination, like out of time, is the ideal place for resourcing stays.

Far enough from the coast not to be crowded but close enough to enjoy its assets, Algaida seduces holidaymakers every year in search of sunny stays. An authentic agricultural village of less than 3000 inhabitants, Algaida is the perfect place to discover the soul of the island of Majorca.

Against the backdrop of the magnificent mountains of the Serra de Tramuntana, Algaida is made up of small alleys and houses with yellow walls, which contrast beautifully with the mountains and the blue sky. What stands out when you arrive in Algaida are its windmills: several metres above the roofs of the old houses, these windmills are perfect postcards of the village, especially at sunset, an absolutely magical moment to capture if you like photography.

If there is a well-known tourist attraction in Algaida, it is certainly its splendid Glass Museum and its blown glass factory. Held by the Gordiola family since 1719, this museum houses numerous collections of glasses, decanters and perfume vials from all over the world. From Paris to London to New York, Gordiola glasses are known all over the world. During this visit, you will also be able to discover the beauty of the blown glass that has made Algaida's reputation for generations, and witness the manufacture of art objects with surprising shapes: unicorns, papillotes, beads, vases, glasses and chandeliers will not fail to amaze you.

If the Algaida area is ideal for hiking, horseback riding and cycling, the main advantage of the municipality is that it is only twenty minutes away from the most beautiful beaches of the Bay of Palma. El Arenal in particular is worth a visit: a trendy and very popular destination, El Arenal is one of the most eccentric beaches in Mallorca. Very lively, it attracts more young people and night owls. To the south-east of the island, Es Trenc beach is certainly the most magnificent in Majorca: with its two kilometres of fine sand, its turquoise and clear water, this beach with a light heavenly air is the ideal place for long breaks in the sun. Playa Cala Blava, the coves of Cap Negret, Badia Blava, the beaches of Ses Cadenes, Can Pastilla and the long dream beaches of Palma de Mallorca will be perfect to enjoy your holiday to the full. In addition to sunbathing in the Mallorcan sun, you can enjoy a wide range of water sports: surfing, paddle, wakeboarding, kitesurfing, sailing, kayaking, towed buoys, sea fishing, jet-skiing, boat trips, parachuting, scuba diving, water skiing... The mosaic of activities is varied, and everyone will find their happiness.

Finally, how can you stay in Algaida without tasting the delights of Mallorcan cuisine? Generous, gourmet, sweet or spicy, there is something for everyone: on the sweet side, we love the succulent "ensaimadas", THE Viennese pastry that makes the island proud. The "Gato mallorqui", the "cuarto mallorqui", the "robiols" and the "cocas de patatas" are to be enjoyed without moderation. When it comes to salty dishes, we opt for a delicious "pica-pica", a "matanza", stuffed squids, a good plate of "tumbet" (a kind of ratatouille), a refreshing "dipping sauce", caragols, "sopes mallorquines", empanadas, thin slices of "sobrassada" and tapas that you can enjoy with your fingertips during a picnic facing the sea, for even more pleasure.
