Can Pastilla

Mallorca

Perfect for holidays and business trips

Can Pastilla is a tourist and residential area in southern Mallorca. Its privileged location, right in the centre of Palma Bay, just 9 km from the capital and 5 km from the airport, makes it an ideal destination for both holidays and business trips.

Just 2 km from our hotel in Can Pastilla, JS Palma Stay, seis the marina, the Can Pastilla Yacht Club, one of the town’s main attractions along with its 11 km long promenade, where you can enjoy a wide range of daytime and night-time leisure activities in its many beach bars, terraces, restaurants, shops and great atmosphere.

Beaches

JS Palma Stay is located just 200 metres from Cala Estancia beach, a 220-metre-long stretch of sand flanked by breakwaters that shield it from the waves. Its crystal-clear waters with sandy bottoms are shallow, making it the perfect place to try out all kinds of water sports. At sunset, the promenade that runs parallel to the beach fills with pedestrians and sports enthusiasts enjoying the sea breeze or having a drink on the terraces overlooking the sea.

Also very close to the hotel, heading towards Palma, is Ciudad Jardín Beach, a sandy beach surrounded by a wide variety of restaurants serving local dishes.
To the east of our hotel in Can Pastilla, very close to and just past Cala Estancia, is Playa de Palma, with its 4,600 metres of fine white sand. This beach area offers plenty of entertainment, including bars and restaurants, nightclubs, shops, etc., as well as a pleasant promenade more than 4 km long, from which you can admire the natural bay.

Natural spots

Just 300 metres from JS Palma Stay is the Es Carnatge coastal nature reserve, with a promenade accessible to pedestrians and cyclists that connects the various sandy coves and rocky outcrops by the sea.

Beyond Playa de Palma, in the municipality of LLucmajor, you can access Cala Pi, surrounded by pine trees, and Cala Brava, a rocky beach with deep blue waters, both of which are very attractive to snorkelling.Nearby, in the vicinity of Cap Blanc, is the so-called ‘Marina’ of Llucmajor, an area of great natural and scenic value.

The municipality of Llucmajor has more than 400 km of well-signposted cycle routes, which run both inland and along the coast and offer fantastic views of the farmland and the island of Cabrera.

Leisure and sports

Can Pastilla, with its constant and regular winds, is one of the best places in the Mediterranean for practising sailing and other water sports such as diving, fishing or jet skiing. The Club Nàutic de Can Pastilla, also known as the Club Marítimo San Antonio de la Playa, hosts internationally renowned regattas such as the Trofeo Princesa Sofía. These features also make it an important spot for practising surfing and all its variants: paddle surfing, windsurfing, kitesurfing, etc.
Just 15 km from the town, golf lovers can enjoy this sport at the high-quality Son Antem golf course. In addition, our hotel in Can Pastilla specialises in cycling tourism, offering our guests a fully equipped Cycling Centre so they can enjoy Majorca’s most extensive cycling route network, located just a short distance away, in the neighbouring municipality of Llucmajor.

Our location, so close to Palma, means you can also enjoy days of shopping and leisure in the capital, visiting the large Aqualand water park (6 km away), the Palma Aquarium, with 55 aquariums and around 8,000 specimens of 700 different marine species (2 km away), and Marineland, a zoo focused on the marine world (13 km away).

Heritage and culture

The San Antonio de la Playa Parish Church, built in 1927 and renovated in 1995, stands in the history of Can Pastilla and is definitely worth a visit. The local market is held on Tuesday and Thursday mornings in Pío IX Square, offering typical local products.

About 7 km from the town is El Molinar, a beautiful bohemian area set in a former fishermen’s quarter. Its winding streets lead down to the sea and are lined with simple whitewashed houses.

Once in the capital, we recommend visiting Palma’s Gothic cathedral, the Majorcan courtyards and the Jewish quarter. Palma is home to all kinds of shops and shopping centres, as well as numerous restaurants and food markets, such as the Olivar Market and the Santa Catalina Market. The Palma Conference Centre is located 7 km from JS Palma Stay.
