Ca Na Catalina – A luxury one bedroom villa in Mallorca

Ca Na Catalina and Pollenca – Where beauty meets magnificence. Snuggled in the footholds of the dramatically jagged mountain range that runs along Mallorca’s Northern coast, the Serra de Tramuntana, is the town of Pollenca.

This traditional Mallorcan town could not contrast more vividly to the busy package-holiday resorts much of Mallorca has become renowned for.

This picturesque and charismatic town comprises of a network of narrow streets conversing and traversing towards the main city square. This lively square is particularly bustling on market day and is the perfect place to sit down and relax on an outside terrace with a cold beer and become acquainted with traditional Mallorcan life.

For more active Pollenca visitors, a climb to the summit of Puig de Pollenca is recommended. The Puig de Pollenca, or Puig de Maria as it is commonly referred to, is a hill that shadows the town. At this mighty hill’s summit lies an ancient nun’s monastery, which dates back to the mid fourteenth century. Since the last of the nuns left the convent in the late 1980s, this ancient monastery has been used as a hostel.

Excelling in finding of the beaten ‘treasures’ that do the area in which they situate the justice they deserve, Vintage Travel is delighted to introduce Ca Na Catalina to its Mallorca portfolio of properties.

This stunning luxury one bedroom villa in Mallorca is tucked discreetly away in the heart of the countryside yet being just 2.6 kilometres from Pollenca, is close enough to exploit and enjoy all the wonderful amenities, sites and pleasures this traditional Mallorca town is blessed with.

The owner’s lust for art and individual décor is evident throughout Ca Na Catalina, including several stunning artworks by the renowned and celebrated painter, Juan Antonio Bofill. This fundamentally open-plan villa tastefully contrasts traditional features, including a woodburning stove, with elegant modern ‘comforts’ such as air conditioning that is often greatly appreciated with the soaring summers the island of Mallorca unfalteringly receives!

The abundance of light pouring through this luxury one bedroom villa in Mallorca’s huge windows and sliding louvre doors invites guests outside where they can enjoy lapping up the sunshine on front and rear terraces. To cool down Ca Na Catalina guests can relax in the villa’s large private pool, surrounded by a wonderful lawned garden – a feature that is not typically synonymous with the Balearic Islands and their enviously mild year-round climate.

Where Ca Na Catalina particularly stands out from other villas is its private, all-weather tennis court. If playing tennis on your private court, bathing on one of the nearby sandy beaches, playing golf, climbing the summit of Puig de Pollenca, or walking along one of the many stunning mountain pathways sounds like an idyllic holiday, you won’t be disappointed with Ca Na Catalina and Pollenca.
