Built in 1940, this large villa sits on a substantial plot of just over 2,500 square metres in an elevated position above the original settlement of El Arenal.
Typical of villas of this era, it still retains many of the original details in the interior. It features a larger entrance hall with an elegant staircase leading to the first floor, a substantial lounge with a fireplace, a separate dining room—also with a fireplace—and an enclosed porch accessible from both the lounge and dining room. Additionally, the ground floor houses a double bedroom and a complete bathroom. There is a large kitchen and laundry room, both offering access to the porch facing the entrance to the garden.
On the first floor are three more double bedrooms and another complete bathroom. Each of these rooms has double doors leading to the balcony surrounding the first floor.
The attic space is divided into two areas by an arch and boasts open views of the sea to the west and the countryside to the east.
The building underwent modifications in the 1980s and 1990s, serving as a summer home for a local family since its construction and later as guest accommodation.
This property offers various options for buyers, whether refurbishing the home or landscaping the garden featuring mature trees. There is potential for installing a swimming pool and summer kitchen as well. The property includes a small group of outbuildings, one of which is a garage that uniquely accesses two streets. This layout provides an ideal opportunity to create a large private property with off-street parking and a substantial garden, just a brief walk from the beach and the El Arenal Yacht Club.
Additionally, the large plot can be utilized for redevelopment, with a maximum occupancy of 28 units of apartments permitted, or a smaller number for townhouses, or even a mixed development while retaining the original property.
The area has not yet received the redevelopment seen in El Molinar and Portixol, but the urbanizations of Son Veri Nou and Bellavista are growing popular among those interested in older, larger villas for redevelopment options.
Focusing around the marina and original harbour, many smaller hotels and apartment buildings dating from the 1970s and 1980s are being refurbished, as the location offers proximity to one of the island’s largest and most popular beaches. Access to the centre of Palma de Mallorca is also convenient, whether via public transport, road, or by bike during the summer months, as shoreline cycling paths and walkways run right to the entrance of the old city walls and beyond to the heart of the city.

El Arenal
El Arenal, also referred to as S’Arenal, is a location in Mallorca that has been significantly shaped by tourism. Situated in the southern part of Mallorca, it borders the western Migjorn region. A portion of S’Arenal is part of the capital city, Palma, which is conveniently located just 12 kilometers away from the airport.
The town of El Arenal first appears in historical documents in 1887. Initially, it was a small fishing village. Today, the town’s origins as a fishing village are still evident in the town centre at the far end of the beach, close to the harbour. The El Arenal Yacht Club, opened in 1952, is among the oldest marinas on the island’s coast. The urbanizations of Son Veri Nou and Bellavista are located to the south of the marina and beach, while the luxury Hotel Cap Rocat occupies the headland of Cala Blava.
