Can Duquesa

Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Spain

Style
Aristocratic castillo-style finca
Setting
Palm-filled Porreres

Casa Duquesa is a fully staffed private villa set in 150 acres of beautifully maintained grounds. As you might expect from somewhere so upscale, there’s a helicopter pad hidden amid the sprawling gardens, and making it perfect for a wedding, it's even blessed with its own chapel. Stay at Casa Duquesa and you’ll feel like Spanish royalty. Promenade the foliage-filled gardens, splash in the aquamarine-sparkling pool or linger over lunch under palm trees… in fact, topping up your tan on the sun terrace overlooking the orchards and olives is as taxing as it gets. From the outside this extra-special casa appears carved from creamy nougat. The interior is a world away from hotel-style luxury, with timeless, traditional antiques blended with a modern attention to detail. Whether you want to have an intimate, relaxing holiday or get married in full pull-out-the-stops glory, this magnificent home is anything but ordinary.
