Luxury Villas to rent in Capdepera

Capdepera is a hidden jewel, not so commonly known but one which hides beautiful secrets. Located on the eastern side, Capdepera is an ancient Mallorcan town bursting with history. Set on a small mountain, the town has fantastic views to the mountains and the sea, and is surrounded by outstanding natural beauty. Every where you turn there is fresh air and good vibes. In addition, it is surrounded by some of the most impressive beaches on the island. Therefore, all our villas in this area are in an unbeatable position.

Settled during the Bronze Age for its strategic location, Capdepera town dates from the times of King Jaume II built to protect the island citizens from pirate attacks. At the beginning, the idea of having to scale the mountains to build the town was not welcomed. However, it was not long before the king’s idea was fully appreciated. Each monument of the town, such as the Castle of Capdepera, is full of interesting stories which helps understand the essence of the town. In May, a Medieval Fair is celebrated at the castle to commemorate its foundation, and you can enjoy the amazing condition of the building and its nearby streets. Capdepera is filled with colour, light and music.

Well preserved by its townspeople and visitors, Capdepera promotes an environmental policy that helps preserving marine life and wildlife. The Llampuga festival in October is one of the most important events in Capdepera. Located at the bay, it is a gastronomic fair in which there is a variety of dishes made from the native llampuga fish, sometimes right on your table.

Its location gives you the opportunity to go from one seaside to another enjoying its clear waters and fine sand, as it is very close to some of the most beautiful beaches on the island.
