Mallorca Honeymoon Guide

Why is Mallorca the perfect honeymoon destination?

Mallorca has spent years shaking off its reputation for mass tourism and it’s definitely succeeded. While party resorts once defined the island’s image (yes, I’m looking at you Magaluf), today’s Mallorca is a very different story. Beyond the nightlife and package crowds, the island has a quieter, more refined side with beautiful villages tucked in the Tramuntana mountains and boutique fincas surrounded by olive groves and citrus trees.

It’s this contrast that makes Mallorca such a brilliant honeymoon destination. You can spend one day exploring Palma’s galleries and rooftop bars, and the next in near solitude in Deià or Valldemossa – timeless, romantic, and worlds away from the coast’s livelier resorts.

Natural beauty – the most beautiful crystal coves and mountain trails
Culture & charm – Palma’s old town, artistic mountain villages and open-air markets.
Food & wine – relaxed beach clubs, vineyard tastings and local Mediterranean flavours.
Romance & relaxation – boutique stays, coastal drives and slow days.

Quick Mallorca honeymoon planning tips

Best time to visit: May–June and September–October offer perfect weather and fewer crowds. July–August is very hot and busy, especially on the coast.
How to get there: Fly directly into Palma de Mallorca Airport (PMI), which is well-connected from most European cities.
Getting around: Mallorca has good transport links with buses connecting most towns and beach areas, and Palma’s network is easy to navigate. But to really explore the island’s quieter coves, vineyards, and mountain villages, renting a car is the best option.
Where to stay: Palma for culture and convenience, Deià for bohemian romance, Sóller for mountain and sea views, and Cala d’Or or Santanyí for coastal calm.
Experiences: Sunset sailing, wine tastings, scenic drives and long lunches overlooking the sea.
