Many Brits and Germans have chosen to purchase Property in Mallorca / Majorca for retirement or for a holiday home. It is within easy reach of both countries with very cheap flights.
On the west side of the island is Magaluf which is like a mini England. The majority of British holiday makers stay in Magaluf and most that I have spoken to don't know about the beauty of the rest of Mallorca as they usually confine themselves to the town.
The same goes for the German holiday makers, many of them stay in Arenal for the whole period of their holiday. Arenal is on the south side of the island just east of Palma which is the main city.
Palma is a lovely place to live with many comfortable apartments for sale, a nice place is close the cathedral or on the Paseo de Maritimo. I rented an apartment there for a while with great views over the bay of Palma and the cathedral which was a great sight when lit up at night.
If you decide to purchase a property in Mallorca / Majorca it is easy to rent it out when you are not there, it will help to pay off the mortgage. I rented a 3 bedroom apartment in Palma for 1 year and sub rented 2 rooms to passing Captains and Stewardesses and it paid for my whole rent which in the end I lived for free for a year.
I would recommend the following places to purchase property in Mallorca:
Palma central and old town, Cala Major, Puerto Portals, Santa Ponsa, Alaro, Pollensa and Alcudia.
My favorite is Alaro which is in the middle of the island, very peaceful and is host 2 able top mountains with a monastery on top and a hidden cave that not many people know about.
If I was to recommend any websites to purchase Properties in Majorca it would be the following:
Mallorca Property Homefinder Mallorca
Mallorca Property - Kuhn & Partner
