Hostal-Residencia Catalina Vera

Top choice in Western Mallorca


Pablo and his family are welcoming hosts at this splendid family-run abode, a block back from the water in Port d'Andratx. The rooms are simple but immaculate, with occasional antique furnishings and balconies or terraces – some with sea views. Filled with cacti, jasmine and olive trees, the garden is a picture and a green and tranquil escape from the busy waterfront.
