Binissalem, Mallorca: Rural Calm in the Balearics
Binissalem sits inland on Mallorca, in the Balearic Islands, in a region of countryside and vineyards away from the bustle of the coast. It appeals to UK couples and visitors who want a peaceful, rural side of the island, with the option to reach beaches and towns when they wish.
It is a good choice for those who prefer scenery, calm and a more authentic Mallorcan feel over a busy beach resort.
Where to stay in Binissalem
Finca Albellons is a four-star rural finca hotel set in the Tramuntana mountains of Mallorca, a tranquil base surrounded by countryside.
Getting there and when to go
Mallorca is around a two and a half hour flight from the UK, with Binissalem a transfer inland from the island's airport. The season runs through the warm, dry Mediterranean summer, with spring and autumn especially pleasant for exploring the countryside in milder weather.
Beaches and resorts
Binissalem is inland, so beaches are a drive away rather than on the doorstep. The trade-off is peace and scenery, with the island's coast and resorts reachable for a day by the sea when you fancy it.
Food and things to do
This is a region known for its wine and rural cooking, with local produce and relaxed dining. Days can be spent walking in the Tramuntana mountains, exploring villages and vineyards, or making trips to the coast and to Mallorca's larger towns.
Who it suits
Binissalem suits couples and visitors who want a calm, rural Mallorca base with countryside, walking and a more authentic feel. It is less suited to those wanting beaches and nightlife on the doorstep.
