Preamble

Every finca on this island is written into a register before it is allowed to keep guests. Ours has a number. The rest of this page is what the number stands for.

Ca'n Posteta sits on the Camí de Ses Planes, a lane that climbs out of Sóller between stone walls and orange trees. The valley behind it has grown citrus and pressed olives for a very long time; the grey wall of the Tramuntana closes it off from the rest of Mallorca and keeps the air still and warm.

We are not a hotel and have never wanted to be one. The house is looked after by the people who grew up in it, the gate is opened by hand, and the number of guests at any one time is small on purpose. What follows reads like a record because, in a way, that is exactly what it is.

The Setting

A valley with one way in

The Sóller valley below Ca'n Posteta — vineyard and groves under the grey wall of the Serra de Tramuntana.
The Sóller valley, closed off by the Tramuntana — the reason the air stays still and warm.

Sóller hides behind the mountains. For centuries you reached it on foot or by mule over the Coll, until a tunnel and a wooden train finally let the rest of the island in. That isolation is the reason the valley still smells of orange blossom in spring and burns gold in winter when the fruit is heavy.

The House

What is on the property

Stone underfoot, thick walls that hold the cool, and shutters you close against the afternoon. The finca is let as a whole to one party at a time, so the garden, the terrace and the quiet all belong to you for the length of the stay.

The Table

It mostly comes from the valley

Oranges off the trees, oil pressed from Tramuntana olives, bread from Sóller, fish landed at the port that morning. You can cook for yourselves in a proper kitchen, or let us point you to the small places in town that locals actually keep to.

In season we leave fruit from the garden on the table. It is not a service so much as the obvious thing to do when the trees are full.

  • Sóller oranges & lemons
  • Tramuntana olive oil
  • Fish from Port de Sóller
  • Bread & market produce in town
  • Mallorcan wines, well chosen
