Andratx holiday rentals near the beach
If you’re struggling to decide where to book a holiday letting in Majorca, we recommend the town of Andratx! Andratx is located right at the southwestern tip of the island. The town itself is nestled inland, but a short 10-minute drive will take you to the nearest beaches. There are plenty of suitable accommodation options here. Treat yourself to a beautiful rural rental in complete tranquillity, overlooking the Tramuntana mountain range, or find a rental a bit closer to the sea if being close to the beach is more your thing. You can opt for an affordable Andratx holiday letting in one of the town's residential complexes, or splash the cash and book one of the luxury properties that will be a dream holiday location for a large group of family and friends.
Why book a holiday letting in Andratx?

The area and how to find your way around
Holiday rentals in Andratx: the pearl of Mallorca on the west coast
Andratx is a beautiful inland town of approximately 11,000 inhabitants, which belongs to the region of the Sierra de Tramontana. Due to this location, the town is surrounded by the impressive mountain range and numerous valleys. The Sierra de Tramontana mountain range is also the most important one on the island, attracting a huge number of hiking lovers and outdoor enthusiasts all year round. In relation to a bigger destination, Andratx is only 30km from the capital of Palma de Mallorca, where you can have a fun overnight stay if you decide to book a letting in Palma.
Andratx accommodation: the best around
If you are looking to enjoy the beach, it is best to stay at Puerto de Andratx. The magnificent marina of this municipality attracts large numbers of tourists each year. The Port of Andratx is not just any port! It is famous for the impressive luxury yachts that dock there, gently rocked by the murmur of the waves. The wealthy inhabitants of Andratx give this destination a touch of sophistication that extends beyond the city limits. Another potential seaside location is Santa Ponsa. This family favourite is a lot more lively than tranquil Andratx, so perhaps a good choice if you’re someone who loves hustle and bustle of seaside resort life. Rent a finca in Santa Ponsa for a few nights if you fancy splitting your stay between the rural and coastal locations.

Andratx holiday lettings for history lovers
In the course of its long history, Andratx has not always been as dazzling as it is today. The name of the town can be found in documents dating back to 1236. The etymology of this name of peculiar sonority remains totally unknown. No explanation has been found for it, and although some theories have been put forward, none have been officially recognised.
Traces of the region's troubled past can still be found today. Since the Middle Ages, recurrent attacks by pirates from not far away from North Africa made it necessary to fortify the coastline. Elements of the old defence system have been preserved, in particular the towers located on the coast and places now open to the public. These towers bear witness to the extraordinary efforts that were necessary to defend the island from the 16th century onwards. A total of fourteen fortified towers were built to protect the communities of Andratx and Calvia.
Another suitable option for history enthusiasts would be to book a villa in Petra, Mallorca. This small town is located in the central Pla region of Mallorca and its history offering is great thanks to its prehistoric origins and the more than 40 archaeological sites to be explored in the area.
Accommodation in Andratx for nature lovers
With an altitude of 950 metres, the impressive mountains of the Sierra de Tramuntana are the delight of nature lovers. They can be reached both on foot and by bicycle, which is a great tourist attraction. In the surrounding area, there are many well-signposted hiking trails from which you can choose to discover the beautiful landscapes of the area. The only thing to keep in mind is that, although many are looking for Andratx rentals for July and August, the most interesting season to visit Andratx is not the summer, but the spring, when the valley surrounding the town is covered with the intense colours of the almond blossom. Another charming town in this area is Pollenca. Check out the holiday lettings in Pollenca that are on offer here if you’d like to spend a few days in this town that is home to friendly locals and breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. Can you think of a better way to disconnect from the bustle and hectic pace of life in the big city than to spend a few days in contact with nature?

Top 5 Travel Tips in Andratx
1. Travel to the past visiting the castle of Son Mas
When you rent a villa in the Balearic Islands, you can be sure that you will have an abundance of local history to discover and learn about! The castle of Son Mas stands at the highest point of the population and was built during the period of Arab rule over the Balearic Islands. Nowadays, it is above all a point of attraction for hikers. From its terrace, you can enjoy a wide view of the whole city, as well as over the enormous orchards of the surroundings. After a complete restoration, the castle is in impeccable condition and is now used as a town hall and cultural centre.
2. Enjoy its wide range of aquatic activities
They're one of Andratx's strong points. If you like scuba diving, sailing, and surfing or if you want to get started in these sports, you will find happiness on the coast of Andratx. Andratx's underwater world also offers a fascinating biological diversity that you can't miss under any pretext.
3. Visit the Andratx Cultural Centre
It is located just outside the city, near the village of Sa Coma. This short drive is worth the detour, as the CCA Andratx building is already a work of art. In a unique blend, the seemingly opposite styles of Mallorcan tradition and decidedly modern minimalism are harmonised. In a total of 4,000 square meters, visitors can discover some of the most important works of contemporary art in Europe.
4. Lose yourself in the Old Town of Andratx
They invite you for a walk and a rest. Come sit in one of the fun cafes and enjoy the views over the old harbour, or satiate your desire to shop in the many shops. This is precisely one of the reasons why Andratx is a great destination to disconnect and forget all the daily worries.
5. Visit the Weil studio
Another testimony to Mallorcan modernity awaits visitors who are passionate about art in this spectacular building. Conceived jointly by architect Daniel Libeskind and American artist Barbara Weil, it removes the boundaries between architecture, sculpture and painting. Barbara Weil is an exceptional artist, and the studio offers a fascinating insight into her work.
