Tripadvisdor Review – April 2019

Fabulous short break

This is our third stay at la Pergola and was a lovely short break before the Easter rush. We upgraded to half board before we travelled and feel we got value for money. The hotel is very clean and the staff very friendly…

Tripadvisdor Review – April 2019

Wonderful

We stayed here whilst walking the GR221 for a little bit of luxury and that is exactly what we got. Watching the sunset made it extra special.

Discovering Galilea

Discovering Galilea

More than 460 metres above sea level, this small and quiet village in a privileged area offers everything you need for a relaxing holiday. Far away from the tourist resorts, Galilea is a natural refuge where you can enjoy a beautiful landscape to the Tramuntana mountain range and endless green forests, as well as a total disconnection from the metropolitan city. Located in the southwest of the island, between Es Capdellà and Puigpunyet, this place is one of the most rural places of the whole island and very popular among those who decide to explore the authentic Mallorca next to the mountain known as "Es Puig de Galatzó". From historic buildings, places of interest, to activities to do, here we explain everything you need to know about the village of Galilea.

Culture and historic buildings

If you are passionate about buildings or places of cultural interest, you will be delighted to discover what this charming village has to offer. Like all villages on this island, is has a church located in the heart of the village, in a Renaissance style that was built in 1806. However, it also has other places that are of interest. Galilee has the only Snow House on the whole island, which was mainly used to collect and store snow for disposal throughout the year until 1917, the year it was no longer used as a warehouse. Some other emblematic buildings that you can find in this charming village are an old monastery with the tiles of the house painted, as well as a "Molino de Martí" and a "Pozo Des Rafal" which was dated before the seventeenth century. Galilea is undoubtedly a place full of history and culture to discover.

Activities

The journey to the village is an authentic experience, and even a bit chilling. Roads with steep curves and many slopes, but the views you can see are totally breath-taking, which make the journey there worthwhile. The village is frequented by tourists during the peak season, looking for the most beautiful routes for hiking or cycling, to be able to enjoy the natural landscape accompanied by a good climate and the sea background. If you still haven't been able to tell yourself how to get around the island, here you can find some of the most beautiful routes for cyclists in Mallorca. If you decide to explore the village with your family, we recommend an excursion to La Reserva de Puig de Galatzó. It is a natural park where you will be able to discover the fauna, caves, natural waterfalls and an environment of vegetation that will make you spend an unforgettable day full of adventures.

Traditions and specialities

Being a village that has maintained its authentic and rural side throughout all these years, offers a wide range of gastronomic specialties of all types of Mallorcan cuisine. We recommend ordering a delicious dish of "frito mallorquín" or "arroz brut", an authentic delicacy! Every year the village holds the annual ecological and craft fair, where you can find all kinds of products and food, with the main objective of promoting small businesses and protecting the natural environment. In addition, at the beginning of September you will also be able to enjoy a "torrada" with all the inhabitants, where dinner is distributed and prepared among all the neighbours as a tradition.

With just 300 inhabitants in the village, Galilea counts as one of the places with the least inhabitants of the whole island. The village does not offer many options to stay there, and for the same reason, it is advisable to book a hotel in Port Andratx such as La Pérgola to spend an unforgettable family holiday.
