Luxury Palma Holidays

Cobbled streets and cultural cool

Holidays in Palma offer visitors a chic and cosmopolitan town with a laid-back island feel. The capital of Majorca, also known as Palma de Mallorca, it’s set on the island’s south coast and offers some excellent beaches, a lively marina area and cultural sights just waiting to be explored. Palma Cathedral is top of the list, with its steep spire dominating the city’s skyline and an interesting history to discover inside. Alternatively, visit some of the many museums and art galleries which pepper the city.

You’re looking at around 11 hours of sunshine a day in midsummer, with balmy sea temperatures. Things won’t cool off until October, which still hovers in the low to mid 20s.

Tipping

Restaurant bills include a service charge by law in Spain, so whether you choose to tip further is up to you. If you enjoyed the meal and service, it is customary to leave 5-10%. Hotel porters and maids will appreciate a small tip, and while taxi drivers don’t require a tip, it’s common to round up the fare.

Introduction to languages

The official language of Spain is Spanish. English is widely spoken too, so getting by is easy.
