The Estate
Nine centuries on one piece of land
Mallorca’s largest private finca, farmed entirely by organic principles, and one of the most extraordinary landscapes of the island’s southeast.
A short history

Antiquity
Research by the estate’s owners traces the property back to Roman times.

Forest, fields and a protected reserve
When the current owners acquired Es Fangar, they found a unique place: a protected nature reserve of more than 400 hectares, vast fields and wild forests of pine, olive and carob trees. The estate spans some 1,000 hectares in the municipalities of Manacor and Felanitx.
Organic by conviction
Sustainable and organic farming is our first priority, across the whole estate. Vines, olive groves, almond and fig trees and our beehives are managed without synthetic chemicals, in a landscape we intend to hand on to the next generation in better shape than we found it.
