All along the rocky west coast of Majorca the only resort you can find is the village of Puerto de Soller. While situated only 35km north west of the capital Palma and the Son Sant Joan International airport, the remoteness of the area by the Sierra de Tramuntana mountain range when needed one of the longest tranfer times on the island.

Having the shape of an almost perfect horseshoe bay, Puerto de Soller is the actual resort enclosed by two headlands, which is not too different from many of the resorts on the north shore of Menorca.

The original old town of Soller is situated at a little over 3km inland from the port. The main road that joins the two is shared with both trams and several coaches since the most of the major tour operators to Majorca include a boat trip around the harbor at Puerto de Soller into their "Scenic West" type day trips.

Consequently this road can become very busy and packed through the summer months.
The “Orange Express” is the name of the only working tramway on the island. Not because of the color of the carriages, but due to the fact that its route meanders from the old town, through orange groves to terminate at the harbor at Puerto de Soller.

The beach of the main town is quite small with few, amenities therefore will have a very limited request to families with children.

Middle-aged couples are the most frequent visitors and people that are interested in walking and scenery who use the town as a well situated base to reach into the mountains that have sheltered the resort for many years. 

At this point worth a mention at the 2 villages of Fornalutx and Biniaraix, which are both about 4km away from the center of the old town, nestled at the bottom of the "Puig Major”.

Even if 100 years have passed by, both villages seem not to have changed much and visitors can experience the traditional Majorcan way of life, and see how the island used to be before the tourists started to arrive.
