Sa Coma holidays

Good food and good wine is the motto in Sa Coma, and it doesn’t get much better than breakfast thanks to its sugary ensaimada. This traditional iced bun is sure to get your blood pumping first thing, rumour has it that the celebrated rising dough is so fluffy and full of flavour because of the sea air. When lunch comes around, suckling pig, mixed seafood paella and salted cod dishes are just some of the tasty options. Bibabo Restaurante will have you running back for more, the swordfish and fajitas even get a special mention on Tripadvisor. When it comes to fine dining, there’s Tomeu Caldentey Cuiner and Tia Jass Restaurant who are among the best owing to their menus teeming with delights such as wagyu sirloin, lobster and pork steamed buns. Head over to JJs bar to finish the night off with a bottle of Cava, the Spanish answer to Champagne. Or, try some of the local beverages including tinto de verano which is red wine mixed with lime/lemon soda.

Among Majorca’s 200 beaches, over 30 of these are Blue Flag awarded, one of which is based in Sa Coma. Resembling the coastline of Mexico, this resort is blessed with flawless beach conditions and gentle waves, making it the perfect base for a long sunbathing stint. Take your pick from an array of watersport activities including pedalo boats with fancy slides which slowly dip you into the ocean or try your hand at windsurfing and scuba diving. Holidaymakers can also expect volleyball courts, showers and a wealth of sunloungers, ensuring you’re fully kitted out for a day on the sand. Backed by a traffic-free promenade, expect shops selling those all-important beach balls and arm bands, alongside cocktail spots, cheap eats and ice cream stands.

The resort itself is a dream come true for any beach-hopper and foodies will be just as impressed with its line-up of seafront eateries. When dusk falls, Sa Coma is bursting with Sangria spots and free-flowing cocktails, after a few of those you’ll find yourself at its karaoke bars. With plenty of Majorca’s other major areas surrounding this hidden gem, excursions are easy to come by too.

Son Servera Market: Just a short 10 minutes away you’ll be enticed by the sweet aromas of Son Servera market. Every Friday this Medieval market is overflowing with 200 stalls selling almost everything. Whether you want to purchase a souvenir, designer bag or handcrafted jewellery you’ll find a vendor with exactly what you desire. However, the main highlight here is the food. We encourage you to stop for a picnic and trust us you won’t be able to resist once you catch a whiff of the spicy sausages and witness blocks of every cheese imaginable the size of your head.

Natural marvels at Punta de N’amer: Located on the western edge of the beach awaits this pretty nature reserve. The woodland is the ultimate trek for avid hikers who want to explore Sa Coma’s natural allures. However, serious climbers will want to head straight for its centre hill. At the top of the summit, there’s a 17th century watch tower anticipating your arrival with an interesting military museum to match. But most importantly, the cafe at the top is worth every ounce of sweat you’ve gained from its steep rise. Overlooking the bay of Mediterranean waters, grab a coffee and a cake al fresco.
