Beach sunbathing, history hunting, souvenir shopping and restaurant hopping – whatever your holiday plans look like, you can do it all here on the east coast of Majorca.

Not sure which resort will be best suited to you? Here’s a quick rundown on some of our favourites...

C’AN PICAFORT

The vibe: low-key and laidback

This former fishing village ticks all the boxes for an authentic Spanish, get-away-from-it-all type of break. Its go-slow approach and quiet atmosphere mean you can holiday at your own pace – perfect!

Where to stay: Can Picafort Palace, C’an Picafort, Majorca 3*+

SA COMA

The vibe: family-friendly with lots to do

Sa Coma was practically made for all-age holidays, catering to everyone from tiny tots to grown-ups. The beach is blanketed by soft sand and the water is shallow and warm, so it’s great for little swimmers.

Where to stay: CM Mallorca Palace, Sa Coma, Majorca 5*

CALA MESQUIDA

The vibe: remote and charming

Mountain backdrop as you sunbathe? Yep. Laidback and quiet surroundings? Yep. Pretty pine trees providing that well-needed shade? Yep! Cala Mesquida is primed for total relaxation.

Where to stay: Zafiro Cala Mesquida, Cala Mesquida, Majorca 4*

CALA MILLOR

The vibe: perfect for all with lots going on

Couples, families, groups and solo travellers return to the resort of Cala Millor year after year. It could be down to the pristine 1.5km-long stretch of biscuity beach, or perhaps it’s the buzz of the bars and restaurants as the sun goes down...

Where to stay: CM Castell de Mar, Cala Millor, Majorca 4*

PORTO PETRO

The vibe: sleepy fishing village

Escape the crowds and retreat to the picture-perfect resort of Porto Petro. Bag a chair in a shaded café and watch the boats bob up and down in the water. Cocktail or ice-cold beer in hand, of course!

Where to stay: IKOS Porto Petro, Porto Petro, Majorca 5*

CALA D’OR

What to expect: beaches aplenty and a pretty marina

Seven serene beaches make up this Majorcan resort, so you can find a sandy spot that’s perfectly suited to you. Spend the day soaking up that Spanish sunshine before heading to the marina for dinner with a view.

Where to stay: Inturotel Esmeralda Garden, Cala D’Or, Majorca 3*

PORTO COLOM

The vibe: authentic restaurants and marvellous markets

On the south-east coast, you’ll find chilled-out Porto Colom. It’s got a Majorcan village feel to it, with traditional cafés and restaurants where you can sample the island’s best dishes. Plus, hit the local market for treasures and trinkets aplenty.

Where to stay: JS Portocolom Suites, Porto Colom, Majorca 4*
