A Reimagined Designer Space
One of four family properties in a lovingly restored Mallorcan portfolio, this refined rural residence has been a generational getaway since its construction in 1878. Spacious and serene, the property once housed the owners’ great grandparents and was beautifully overhauled in 2017 in an understated, slow living style.
An exposed stone and block beauty with a gracious pool and bright garden, this subtle, unassuming country home takes modern simplicity seriously. The gentle renovation feels classy and leisurely, featuring low-key natural luxuries across its two stories. Its serene, mostly stone exterior is trimmed by neat green shutters and topped classically by a tiled roof.
A reimagined designer space in soft shades of chalk, sand, and dove, this villa for rent in Mallorca is elegantly pared down yet polished—definitely not your average great-grandparents’ getaway! Spacious, expanded rooms have been modernized by diffused lighting, and lightly finished ceiling beams keep it bright overhead. Simple wood furnishings give the home an uncontrived, almost urban flair, with blonde wood showing up in side tables, vanities and straight sideboards.
The home’s kitchen and dining room have been updated in a Danish-modern-inspired aesthetic, all clean-lined, minimal, and tidy. Radiating subtle sophistication, this home is a natural beauty, a structure that shines elegantly like that stylish, uncontrived friend who always gets it right.

AROUND
Peace and quiet tops the list of things that Mallorca’s rugged interior offers visitors. This villa for rent in Mallorca is one of four owned and operated by the same family in Consell, a 19th-century rural community they’ve called home for generations. Relax poolside after a morning exploring markets in Santa Maria del Camí or Sineu. Walk into the heart of town (five minutes) to visit shops, restaurants and small local bars, or visit the workshops of local craftsmen. Consell hosts an island-famous flea market each Sunday morning, featuring some 300 stalls overflowing with antiques, curiosities, collectibles and furniture.
Take a 10-minute drive to discover Alaró’s ancient architecture, castle, and cobbled streets, and be sure to browse the town’s shoe selection. Alaró was once home to dozens of cobblers and shoe factories, and prominent bootmaker Tony Mora still works from the village and has a warehouse there.
This is wine country, and the Mallorca Wine Tours Train passes on Consell’s outskirts, offering organized winery tours and tastings. Or visit the area’s vineyards independently. The nearby village of Binissalem produces a highly regarded red wine from the local Manto Negro grape, and is also a quarry town where stonemasons (and woodworkers) work in rugged ateliers.
Mallorca’s interior is perhaps best known for its Serra de Tramuntana, a rugged mountain range that forms the island’s backbone and is a classified UNESCO World Heritage Site. Besides being a popular base for hikers, climbers, and day trippers, the mountain range has become a destination for both amateur and professional cyclists. Featuring steep, winding routes, biking in the area is known to be challenging, even considered some of the best road cycling routes in Europe.
