Residential Spain

Alaró is a small inland town in the Raiguer region of Mallorca, set against the dramatic limestone escarpment of the Serra de Tramuntana. The town retains a genuinely local character that distinguishes it from the coastal resort belt, with a compact historic centre of stone buildings, a parish church dating to the 18th century, and the ruins of Castell d’Alaró crowning the ridge above. It appeals to buyers seeking authenticity and landscape over beach proximity.

Daily life centres on the Plaça de la Vila, where the weekly market runs on Fridays. Café Can Mostatxí and the restaurant Es Verger, known for its lamb dishes near the castle trail, are local fixtures. Lloseta and Consell are within a few minutes by car for additional services and supermarkets.

Alaró sits approximately 25 kilometres northeast of Palma, reachable in around 30 minutes by car via the Ma-13 motorway. The town has a train station on the Palma to Inca line, with journey times to Palma of roughly 45 minutes. Palma de Mallorca Airport is approximately 35 kilometres away, around 35 to 40 minutes by car, with direct flights to most major European cities year-round.
