Why Mallorca? 10 reasons to invest
1. Good accessibility
The international airport of Palma de Mallorca is one of Europe’s leading airports, with hundreds of routes to destinations across the globe.

2. Perfect climate
With an average of 300 days of sunshine a year, Mallorca has warm summers and mild winters, during which the temperatures rarely fall below 12 degrees. It is the perfect climate to enjoy outdoor activities and life outdoors the whole year through. The pandemic has resulted in many owners of holiday homes spending longer periods of time on the island.
3. Infrastructure
Mallorca has a highly developed and fast motorway network, and even the places located furthest away from the capital of Palma can be reached by car within 90 minutes. Thanks to the modern fibre optic network, almost all households can be provided with fast Internet connection, which makes the decision to work from home on the island even easier.
4. Capital of Palma
A s a travel destination in its own right, Palma de Mallorca offers a combination of architecture, culture, individual boutiques and shops, as well as a year round restaurant scene. Many of the historic buildings have been renovated and the cosmopolitan city boasts numerous new openings as well as diverse social and cultural activities.
5. Healthcare

8. Diverse landscapes
Mallorca’s attractiveness is based on its diverse and varied landscapes.

The impressive interplay between mountains and sea appeals to the island’s visitors and residents alike.
9. Education
