Apartment for sale in Sant Llorenç des Cardassar, Mallorca

Just a two-minute walk from the sea, this top-floor apartment with elevator in S’Illot is a rare opportunity for those who can see beyond the obvious.

Small but lovely: the perfect retreat for singles or couples offers approx. 45 sqm of living space, including a spacious double bedroom with built-in wardrobe, a bathroom with bathtub, an open-plan kitchen with breakfast bar in traditional Spanish wood design and a window to the inner courtyard, a living-dining area, and a balcony with partial sea views. The entire apartment is fitted with original terrazzo flooring and features a practical layout.

The bedroom window, the balcony, and the shared rooftop terrace offer direct views of the preserved, historically protected Talayotic settlement just across the street—a piece of cultural heritage declared protected in 1951 and considered unbuildable.

S’Illot is one of the most representative examples of Talayotic and post-Talayotic culture, a unique period in Balearic history. In the 1960s, the site was extensively excavated and today features a modern interpretation center where visitors can learn about this fascinating past. Since its touristic development starting in 1948, S’Illot has become a well-known holiday destination while maintaining the charm of its origins as a small fishing village.

The residential building dates back to 1972 and is located on the second sea line, just a few steps from the seafront promenade. Two sandy beaches and beautiful cliffs are within walking distance. Restaurants, bars, small shops, and public transport are all nearby. A large free public parking area is just a few meters from the building.

If you love Mallorca’s east coast, value a quiet and historic location by the water, and want quick access to Sa Coma, Cala Millor, or Porto Cristo, this place is for you.

Yes, the apartment needs a full renovation. But that’s where the opportunity lies: whether you choose a gentle makeover or a bold transformation, this charming gem can become your stylish seaside home. Ideal as a main residence, holiday escape, or investment opportunity.

A rough diamond with soul, location, and history. Properties like this don’t come around every day.

Come and see it before someone else does.
