Palma de Mallorca property developments are rare to find in the old town. Palma Property has increased considerably in the past years getting a huge reputation known as “the new Barcelona” - albeit a smaller version. This beautiful, historic town on the coast is increasingly asserting itself as a cultural capital (not least since the opening of the trendy Es Baluard art museum) and a chic and cosmopolitan city, as seen in the proliferation of exquisite boutique hotels in converted palaces. As a result, growing numbers of new converts to Mallorca are seeking holiday homes around the capital instead of scooting off to other areas of the island. Though Palma de Mallorca boundaries stretch 15km along the coastline from s’Arenal in the east to the cosmopolitan districts of Cala Mayor and San Agustin in the west, the city itself is relatively small, so everything is within walking distance (underground parking is abundant making access by car easy).

Palma de mallorca property boasts the largest medieval old town in Europe, a maze of grand mansions, museums, fashionable shops, tapas bars and restaurants set around in picturesque old squares.

Palma de Mallorca waterside properties are very demanded due to the high value increase in the next years.. Prices are relatively high, with properties with harbour views starting at around 5,000 euros per m2, and apartments with more urban views at 3,000 per m2. Palma’s buildings are, however, full of character, and properties for sale are usually in historic buildings which have been stylishly converted, particularly near the cathedral around the popular La Llonja and up-and-coming Santa Catalina Property. Be prepared though for steep, narrow staircases without lifts and probably no parking space nearby. Many old palaces and villas are now being renovated, and the neglected suburban areas of Portixol and Terreno are undergoing facelifts. In the old town you will find small studio or one-bedroom apartments for around 150,000-200,000 euros and two-bedroom apartments of about 100m2 from about 250,000 euros. Palma is also seeing its fair share of loft-style penthouses in converted palaces, with panoramic views of the town and sea from their roof terraces. Price tags for such properties usually escalate into the millions. There are various new-build possibilities on the edge of town near the sea – though still within walking distance of everything – starting at 270,000 euros for three-bedroom apartments. For the most exclusive views of Palma Bay, look at SonVida, an upmarket area of luxury villas set up a private road with 24 hour security. You’ll need at least 2 million euros to start househunting around here.
