Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to really get into the essence of a place, to explore its most genuine spots and discover the treasures that make it unique? At Garden Hotels we invite you to do just that in Alcúdia, a magical place where history and authenticity intertwine to offer you an unforgettable experience. For this reason, we have a very useful and interesting route for you if you are staying at one of our hotels located in this idyllic area of Mallorca, such as the Alcudia Garden Aparthotel, located in the heart of Alcúdia, or the nearby hotels located in Playa de Muro: Playa Garden Selection Hotel & Spa and Garden Holiday Village.
We want you to explore outside our facilities and discover the local culture through its iconic establishments. There are seven businesses that have been awarded the “Emblemàtics Balears” seal, as part of a project that seeks to promote and protect the traditional commercial fabric of the Balearic Islands. Would you like to find out more about them? Well, read on:
- Can Paner (groceries/pharmacy): An iconic place that has marked the palate of generations, offering quality products and a unique service.
- Horno Can Joan Serra (bakery): More than a bakery, a deep-rooted tradition, where each product tells a narrative of flavours.
- Horno Can Torres (bakery): Another gem that sells incredible pastries with a long history, sweetening the lives of the locals since time immemorial.
- Helados Garrido (artisan ice cream parlour): A place where ice cream tradition merges with innovation, offering flavours that will delight your palate.
- Eléctrica Nicolau (electrical appliances): An establishment with a very long history of providing electrical solutions with dedication and professionalism.
- Victoria Jewellers (jewellery): An iconic place that shines with unique pieces, where jewellery becomes artistic expression.
- Lencería Dos Pins (lingerie and haberdashery): A local business that dresses the community with quality and style, offering more than just products, but an experience.
The seven shops that we recommend you visit as Iconic Establishments of the municipality of Alcúdia represent the importance of preserving the essence of local businesses and cultural heritage. These businesses are not only places to shop, but also guardians of Alcúdia’s history and identity. In order to be classified as iconic by the local authorities, they must offer a unique product or trade (a well-established business), have been in business for more than 75 years (a business with history) or have outstanding interior and exterior heritage elements (a business with heritage).
As you explore these places, you will not only discover high quality products and exceptional services, but also soak up Alcúdia’s rich history and tradition. At Garden Hotels we suggest that you turn your stay into a complete experience by exploring the businesses that really define the authenticity of this wonderful corner of Mallorca.
