Portixol just a few decades ago was a decaying fishing port. It has now been totally transformed into one of the most sought after areas to own an apartment in Majorca. Situated just a short walk along the coast from La Seu,Palma’s beautiful Gothic cathedral, Portixol’s quaint little terraced houses have been totally renovated. You’ll now find a lovely marina and a rather quaint beach resort.

Portixol is also just a few minutes walk along the promenade from Parc de Mar, a beautiful lakeside park overlooking Palma Cathedral. Portixol has become a really ritzy place packed with family-friendly restaurants, cafes and bars overlooking the harbour, attracting an international crowd.

The chic yet delightfully cosy Rocamar Restaurant (971 274 644) specialises in fresh fish, seafood and rice dishes. Nice views of Portixol harbour too, and a great place to watch the sun go down while enjoying a cocktail. Many visitors and residents of Portixol gravitate to the upmarket Nassau Beach Club to enjoy fine dining and spectacular views over the bay.

However, if you come to Portixol there is really only one place to stay. The Hotel Portixol is justifiably famous. A cool, urbane location overlooking the Bay of Palma, it offers some lovely arty touches. There's an excellent restaurant too, popular with both guests and locals who appreciate the food, wines, service and ambiance overlooking the Med.

A great time to see Portixol at its best is the festival Nit de Foc every June. The beach around Portixol is lit up with candles and tea lights as the resort parties into the night. A beautiful site.
