Can Pastilla

Outstanding Features

The formation of this touristic resort began between the years 1920 and 1925. The citizen Bartomeu Riutort, the man who urbanized this future resort, managed to get the Ripoll brothers, the owners of the estate known as “Sa Torre Rodona”, to give a plot of land to the Catholic Church with the idea of building a temple for worshipping purposes.

Can Pastilla is joined to other touristic zones such as Las Maravillas and S'Arenal by a seafront promenade of approximately 11 km which also serves to unite and communicate it with Palma de Mallorca and also through a motorway the (Ma-19) which covers the majority of the southern coast of the island. It is also very near the airport of Palma de Mallorca, at turn off number l0 on this same motorway the Ma-19.
