Situated in northwest Mallorca, in the heart of the majestic Tramontana Mountains, a UNESCO Heritage Site, Sóller is just 30 minutes by road from Palma, the island’s capital, and only 45 minutes from Palma international airport. It has excellent transport links with a quaint historic train direct to Palma, and a fast local bus service too.
This beautiful town between mountains and sea is one of the most desirable places to live on the island offering all–year–round fantastic amenities that include local schools, excellent private and state healthcare, shopping facilities, wonderful sports activities such as sailing, cycling, and hiking, and a sound infrastructure.
With a rich history that harks back to Moorish times, Sóller today is a reflection of its glorious and fascinating past. Due to its geographical isolation locals often suffered from pirate attacks during the 16th and 17th centuries, and this is commemorated annually with the vibrant Moors & Christians fiesta in May.
During the late 19th and early 20th centuries many Sóllerics emigrated to France where they successfully traded olives, oranges, figs and almonds, returning home as affluent citizens. With this newfound wealth, some built grandiose modernist style properties that can be seen on the Gran Vía, Calle del Mar and Calle Sa Lluna.
