Frares Country House

The road leading to the village of Lluc is a heaven of peace and tranquillity in one of the most unspoilt areas of the island. And it is in this area, just 2.5km away from the old town of Pollensa, that Villa Frares stands proudly above the valley below. Villa Frares has its own soul, its own history, that is now shining again in all its glory after a careful refurbisment. Built in 1925 and belonging to the same family by then, this huge “finca” (traditional Mallorcan farmhouse) is now a comfortable independent holiday home with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, private pool and extensive outdoor areas providing privacy and seclusion in a truly authentic atmosphere. 

Villa Frares is a property steeped in history, where the legacy of its past is still visible throughout the estate. Handcrafted Pollensa textiles adorn the interior walls, and old agricultural tools are scattered throughout the vast gardens and fields, which stretch over an impressive 220,000 sqm.

Renting Villa Frares for your holiday means not only being close to stunning sandy beaches like Puerto Pollensa and Cala San Vicente—just a 10-minute drive away—but also experiencing a piece of the island’s history and culture, which has shaped both its landscape and its proud people.

Inside, the villa is set over two floors and has been carefully furnished to maintain the charm, style, and traditions of Mallorcan fincas. On the ground floor, you'll find a comfortable lounge with a TV, Wi-Fi, sofas, and armchairs, as well as a separate kitchen/dining area. The ground floor also features a double bedroom with antique furniture and a family bathroom with a shower. Both the lounge and kitchen provide access to the outdoors: the lounge opens to a covered porch, which houses a small “museum” showcasing Mallorcan traditions, while the kitchen leads to an outdoor shaded dining area complete with a table, chairs, sink, and barbecue.

On the upper floor, there are two additional bedrooms and an en-suite bathroom. The master bedroom, a peaceful sanctuary, boasts a comfortable bed, a beautifully crafted headboard adorned with Pollensa textiles, a walk-in wardrobe, and an en-suite shower room. The second bedroom, a twin, is equally stylish and full of character, complete with high-quality finishes.

The outdoor areas of Villa Frares are truly exceptional. The expansive grounds stretch from the wooded hilltop down to the lane connecting Pollensa to Lluc, offering complete privacy and uninterrupted panoramic views over the valley. The private swimming pool (6.5m x 3.6m, with a depth of 1.5m) is surrounded by comfortable sunbeds and parasols, providing the perfect space for relaxation. Whether you choose to enjoy the shade of the pergola, unwind on the porch, or simply relax by the pool, you will be immersed in the unique charm of authentic Mallorca.

The tourist tax is included in the price.
