About Manacor

The second-largest town in Mallorca, Manacor sits in a sunlit valley on the eastern side of the island. A fabulous base for active travellers looking to combine beach days with cultural explorations and scenic hikes, the town offers a number of excellent accommodation options. A couple of historic manor houses set within lush gardens, our pick of the best places to stay in Manacor will delight guests of all ages.

Delve into the region’s rich heritage with a guided tour of Manacor’s old town centre. Highlights include the cloistered Church of San Vicente Ferrer, the Torre de Palau, the imposing Church of our Lady of Sorrows and the wonderful Museu d’Història de Manacor. Sports enthusiasts, on the other hand, will be thrilled by the innovative Rafa Nadal Museum. Manacor has long been a centre of Mallorca’s pearl production; several of the town’s factories offer excellent tours, whilst jewellers sell beautiful pieces in independent boutiques. The town’s street market is not to be missed — it’s one of the busiest on the island.

Beyond the town itself, you’ll find impressive archaeological remains at S'Hospitalet Vell. The Drach Caves, by the coast, are fascinating and regularly host spellbinding musical recitals. Head into the hills to follow hiking and mountain biking trails, or make your way to some of the gorgeous Blue Flag beaches which line the island’s eastern shore. Framed by craggy cliffs and ideal for snorkelling and swimming, Cala Anguila is particularly special. Return to one of the best places to stay in Manacor for terrific Catalan-inspired cuisine, savoured with uninterrupted valley views.
