Residential Alcúdia Spain

Alcudia occupies the northern tip of Mallorca, where a medieval walled town sits on a narrow isthmus between two bays. The old town, enclosed within fourteenth-century walls that remain largely intact, has a density of history unusual even by Mallorcan standards. The streets inside the walls are quiet, shaded, and lined with stone townhouses, giving the area a character that is markedly more composed and less commercialised than the resort towns further south.

The weekly market on Tuesdays and Sundays draws locals from across the north of the island. Port d’Alcudia, a ten-minute drive, offers a working marina alongside restaurants including Es Mollet and La Barca. The Albufera natural park, one of the largest wetlands in the western Mediterranean, borders the bay to the south.

Palma de Mallorca is approximately 55 kilometres to the southwest, reachable in under an hour by car via the Ma-13 motorway. Palma Airport handles direct flights to most major European cities, with journey times from London, Paris, and Frankfurt all under three hours. The airport is roughly 60 kilometres from Alcudia, a drive of approximately 50 to 55 minutes depending on traffic.
