Olive Production in Mallorca...
The Serra de Tramuntana is a dramatic mountain range soaring nearly 5,000 feet (1,445 m) high, along 56 miles (90 km) of Mallorca's northwest coast. Every year in November, millions of centuries old olive trees residing in these mountains are celebrated. This is when the harvest takes place, and when the famous Caimari Olive Fair draws the attention of local people. We will walk to the fair from our jaw-dropping hotel to learn about how olives are curated, and how they are turned into the most delicious, pure, cold pressed, extra virgin olive oil in the mediterranean. A compliment to this natural spectacle are temperatures around 75 degrees (24 celsius), and a wonderful lack of tourism.

This Getaway Is For You If...
Mother nature and her creations are irresistible to you. Historic walks through the past awaken your curiosity. You love dining alfresco. Visiting local markets to taste everything in season rocks your socks. Temperatures 60-75 fahrenheit or 15-24 celcius is your comfort zone. You adore hiking and exploring. An immersion into the production of olive oil sounds magical. A barefoot walk on the beach feels like the most lavish experience. You prefer to mingle with locals and immerse yourself in their way of life. Traveling with an intimate group of like-minded women is your jam. There will be a good amount of walking, so comfortable shoes and an appropriate level of fitness is required.
Your Hosts...
How often is it that you go on holiday with the founder of your chosen travel tribe? The founder of Mallorca by Design, who has been a local resident for 7 years, will be joining every planned moment of this experience with you. There are unplanned moments as well, giving guests the freedom to explore solo. Laura has been hosting events and spending the shoulder seasons in Mallorca since 2010, then in 2018 she finally packed her bags and left New York City to live on an olive farm. Her focus is always on the most unique experiences ... you’re in for an unforgettable adventure. ​

Construction of Castell de Bellver began in 1300 under the rule of King Jaume II. It was intended to be a royal residence, but only two kings ever spent time here. In 1717 it became a military prison, and was used in both the Napoleonic and Spanish Civil Wars.
