Welcome in the valley of Sóller and Fincas Mallorca!

Since 1996, Fincas Mallorca is an agency for the holiday rental of fincas, casitas (small houses) and apartments. We are located in the valley of Sóller, and here are mainly the objects we have in our programme.

Off the centres of mass tourism on the island, we offer you the other side of Mallorca - fascinating landscapes, charming nature and private owned individual accommodation for your stay in the "valley of the oranges".

We chose this location in the northwest of the island, because in our opinion this is one of the most beautiful regions of Mallorca and the entire Balearic Islands. Sóller is the ideal location for holidays for both - seekers of quietness and remoteness and those who look for activities on land and on water.

All fincas, holiday homes and apartments have been selected personally and with care. We constantly check and inspect them in our clients interest. The variety in location, size and equipment of the objects makes sure that there is the right finca for everybody.

Activities in and around Sóller

Sóller itself as well as the entire island of Mallorca offer a large variety of leisure and sport activities. In the cooler months of spring and autumn, Sóller and its surrounding mountains of the "Serra de Tramuntana" are a paradise for hikers and walkers of all levels. Uncounted trails along the mountains, ranging from 1 hour to full-day excursions, offer wonderful views over the valley or the sea, and constitute one of the main asset of the Sóller valley.

Golfers also appreciate the mild temperatures during these seasons and find 23 golf courses on Mallorca, most of them with 18 holes, driving range, putting green and marvellous restaurants. Only 15 minutes driving off Sóller is located the 18-hole course Golf Son Termens, perfectly embedded in the mountains and with beautiful views towards Palma and the sea.

Summer invites for all kind of water activities, such as scuba diving, boat charter, deep sea fishing, kayaking or just lazy tanning on the beach. The beach in Port de Sóller, only some 10 minutes driving off most of the houses in our programme, is nice for children as well as adults. If you prefer larger beaches, the natural 5km long beach of Es Trenc is only 1 hour driving from Sóller and well worth a day excursion.

Finca, casita, holiday home ... what´s that exactly?

A finca is a farmhouse with formerly agricultural activities. The word "finca" actually comprises the farmhouse itself as well as the the land around it. On Mallorca, and especially in the Sóller valley, the land was used for the cultivation of oranges and lemons, almonds and olives. The Sóller valley is also called the "valley of the oranges" and in most gardens and grounds, the oranges are still cultivated.

The fincas in our programme have little left of the originally rural conditions and shapes. The houses are renovated and modernised, the gardens embellished, and many of them have a pool. This forms the idea of the holiday finca of today. In the Sóller valley the plants include still some orange and lemon trees which may be picked by the tenants (for example in the Finca Son Flor, Can Giret and many others).

 

Casita is the expression and literal translation for "small house" and can be a former stable (such as Casita El Establo) or a small cottage in the olive grounds of the surrounding Tramuntana mountains. They were used to store the agricultural tools and to sleep. After this, the families used them for their weekend meetings, then enlarged, renovated and nowadays rent as cosy, romantic hideaways.
