Welcome to Portals Nous
On the south west coast of Majorca is Portal Nous, a classy coastal resort nestled between mountains and the sea.
This perfectly positioned hideaway offers a charming selection of fine beaches while being close to both the capital and lively resorts such as Magaluf.
Portals Nous is a rarity in western Majorca; a beautiful coastal location that is not overrun by tourists or revellers. People come here for its relaxed atmosphere, upscale marina and selection of delicious restaurants serving freshly caught seafood. The beaches too offer something for every mood; be seen with the jet set at Cala Portals Nous with its yachts and water sports; or keep it exclusive in the secluded waters of Cala Bendinat. Complete relaxation will be within your grasp.
Location
Community
Although awash with many second homeowners, Portals Nous has a healthy year-round population of approximately 2500, with a sizable international contingent drawn largely from Britain, Germany and Sweden.
Property
The higher up you get in Portals Nous, the more expensive the property; many exclusive homes enjoy astonishing views over the sea and towards Palma in the east. There are also renovated villas to be found in the outlying areas along with apartment complexes and smaller townhouses.
Amenities
Head for the high street for a good range of shops including boutiques, supermarkets, a hardware shop and an independent bookshop with a great community atmosphere. Luxury shopping can be found in the marina shopping complex Puerto Portals, which also hosts a weekly farmers’ market.
Transport
You are 10 km from Palma and 16 km from its airport in Portals Nous. If you don’t have your own transport, buses do run around the local area but are fairly infrequent so you would need to plan any journeys carefully.
Health

Cost of Living
Portals Nous is situated in one of the wealthiest parts of Majorca, so expect to be paying a little more when you move here.
