Calvià
07184 Calvià, Balearic Islands, Spain
Calvià is a large and varied municipality on Mallorca’s south‑west coast that combines bustling seaside resorts (Magaluf, Palmanova, Santa Ponsa and Peguera), quieter coves and an attractive inland village core — making it a convenient base for beaches, nightlife, golf and rural walks all within easy reach.
What Makes It Special
What makes Calvià special is its compact contrasts: within the same municipality you can go from lively party beaches to family‑friendly bays and the upscale Puerto Portals marina, plus scenic coastal paths and traditional Mallorcan hamlets — a lot of different holiday experiences without long transfers.
Insider Tips
Get beyond the main resorts: rent a car or use local buses to visit smaller calas (such as Cala Vinyes or Cala Fornells), explore the old village of Calvià for a quieter feel, and head to Puerto Portals at dusk for restaurants and yacht‑watching when the light is best.
