Banyalbufar
Banyalbufar
I spent a winter in this attractive village of terraced fields and stone
houses many years ago. (If I'd followed a local café manager's advice
to marry a certain farmer's daughter, I might be growing olives and almonds
today.)

Hotel Mar i Vent
Give my regards to the Vives family at this cozy
inn where I lived for three months in early 1967, and ask for a room with a
view of the bay.
Deia
Deià
This village (also known as Deya) was made famous by Robert Graves; the
English poet died in 1985, but Deià is still a
mecca for literary pilgrims, daytrippers, and wealthy foreigners.
Puerto Pollensa
PuertoPollensa.com
The beaches of Port de Pollença (as the town is
known in Mallorquín) aren't far from Pollença, an 800-year-old market town.
Alcudia and
the Cap de
Formentor are also worth visiting.
Sóller
Sóller
Mallorca
You can take an antique
narrow-gauge train from Palma to Sóller, an attractive town in northwest
Mallorca with a harbor--the
Port de Sóller--3
km way by tram.
Valldemossa
Mallorca
Service: Valldemossa
The scandalous affair between Fréderic Chopin and George Sand is the main
reason why tourists flood this village on the island's northwest coast, but
Valldemossa is worth seeing even if you aren't a fan of 19th Century
tabloids.
