A pretty rural town just 30 minutes from Palma de Mallorca, Porreres can trace its roots back to Bronze Age. Occupied by both the Saracens and the Romans, the community has a long and rich history, with ancient landmarks dotted amongst more recent additions in the town centre and surrounding area. There’s a small selection of appealing accommodations fit for a range of tastes and budgets; our Gurus’ pick of the best places to stay in Porreres is a restored farmhouse housing characterful private apartments for couples or friends.

Porreres itself is small but very charming. Stroll down the pedestrianised central street to admire the Gothic church of Nostra Senyora de la Consolació, discover modern art exhibitions in the town hall and delve into the past at the Porreres Museum. Scenic walking and cycling paths abound, some passing close to some of the area’s 36 historic windmills. Porreres has a lovely weekly market, but you’ll also find heritage buildings and bustling markets at nearby Campos and Llucmajor.

Mallorca is enormously popular during the summer months, so book your room at one of the best places to stay in Porreres well in advance!
