Luxury real estate in Mallorca: your relaxed path to your dream property

Hello and welcome to our blog! We are Lucas Froese Real Estate, your local contact when it comes to luxury real estate in Mallorca. Whether you’re dreaming of a designer villa with sea views, a historic finca surrounded by olive groves or a penthouse above the rooftops of Palma: we’ll show you what makes the island so special, which locations are suitable for which lifestyle and how we can guide you from the first meeting to handing over the keys.

Why Mallorca is the top address for luxury

Mallorca combines a Mediterranean lifestyle, excellent accessibility, first-class infrastructure and exceptionally diverse nature – from turquoise-blue bays to imposing mountains. The Serra de Tramuntana in the northwest (Deià, Valldemossa, Sóller) in particular gives the island a unique backdrop – and it is no coincidence that it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Serra de Llevant in the south-east of the island is also spectacular.

Hotspots: The most sought-after residential locations at a glance

1) Southwest – Port d’Andratx, Santa Ponsa & Co.
The heart of the high-end market beats here. State-of-the-art new-build villas, spectacular sea views and short distances to marinas, golf courses and Palma. The southwest has been considered a top location for luxury real estate on Mallorca for years – with correspondingly high demand.

2) Son Vida – Palma’s “Beverly Hills“
Just a few minutes from Palma’s old town, but completely private. Gated communities, golf right on the doorstep and villas with far-reaching views over the bay – perfect for anyone who wants to combine peace, security and proximity to the city.

3) Palma old town – penthouses with a wow effect
Those who prefer roof terraces, design and gastronomy on their doorstep to gardens will find exclusive apartments and penthouses with views over the cathedral and the sea in Palma’s historic old town.

4) Southeast – Authentic life close to the sea
If you are looking for authentic and lively Mallorcan flair all year round, this is the place to be. Investors have also noticed this in recent years and many areas in the southeast, such as Santanyi, Felanitx and Cala d’Or, have become hotspots for this. The number of natural beaches and coves is also highest in this region, and projects such as the Rafa Nadal Academy offer great options for families.

5) Tramuntana – Deià, Valldemossa, Sóller
Authentic natural stone fincas in a dramatic landscape. Here you can live in seclusion and style – ideal for art and nature lovers. The fact that the region is a UNESCO World Heritage Site underlines its special value.

Tip: Location is king. Whether you are looking for yachting & golf, city lifestyle or rural idyll – the right micro-location ultimately determines quality of life and value development.

What types of properties are in demand?

• Sea view villas & designer new builds: Spacious floor plans, floor-to-ceiling windows, infinity pool, outdoor kitchen – built for open-air living.

• Historic fincas: thick natural stone, patios, olive groves – modernized, tradition meets comfort.

• Penthouses & townhouses: For those who want to live in the city and experience culture, shopping and gastronomy on foot.

A look at curated luxury portfolios shows the enormous range of high-end properties on the island – from ultra-modern villas to charming historic estates.

Market & price structure – short and sweet

The premium market in Mallorca is robust. Renowned market reports have shown a stable to positive development for years – with clear peaks in the first-class locations. For 2025, average prices per square meter are quoted in the range of around €4,500-5,000 per m² (depending on the property category); prices vary greatly depending on location, condition and view.

Top prices per m² are regularly achieved in the southwest around Port d’Andratx in particular – the region is considered one of the most expensive and sought-after on the island. (Viewpoint from 2024/2025, trend continues to be premium). But regions such as Ses Salines, Cala d’Or or Felanitx have also been among the top positions in recent years (especially Felanitx last year with an increase of 46%).

Our advice: Work with precise comparative values for the specific micro-location, building fabric and quality of fixtures and fittings – “average prices” only serve as a guide.

Investing with foresight: what buyers in the luxury segment should look out for

• View & alignment: a perennial favorite in every location assessment.

• Privacy & access: driveway, neighborhood, view.

• Building permits & legalization: Especially essential for older fincas.

• Building fabric & technology: From insulation to smart homes – quality saves costs in the long term.

• Micro-location: 200 meters can make all the difference – wind, noise, view.

• Exit strategy: How easy will it be to sell the property again in 5-10 years?

FAQ: Luxury real estate in Mallorca – the most frequently asked questions

What is considered a “luxury property” in Mallorca?
Not (only) the price, but the location, view, architecture, quality and privacy. A perfectly renovated townhouse in the old town can be just as “luxury” as a newly built villa on the seafront.

Which location suits me?

• Yacht & Golf: Southwest (Port d’Andratx, Santa Ponsa).

• City & culture: Palma old town, Son Vida (close to the city center + golf).

• Authenticity & investment potential: Cala d’Or, Ses Salines, Felanitx…

• Nature & tranquillity: Tramuntana (Deià, Valldemossa, Sóller).

How does the purchase process work?
Reservation, private purchase contract (Arras), due diligence, notary appointment – we coordinate all steps and experts for you.

Is now a good time?
Premium demand is constant, supply in top locations is limited – selective buyers will find high-quality opportunities if the parameters are right.
