WKDY Studio Palma Travel Guide

Consider this guide to be like your personal concierge while staying in Palma, and exploring as much as you wish to in Mallorca. In a place where there can be a somewhat overwhelming amount of choice, allow me to be of help.

You will find more detailed information about each destination in the pages of the paperback or digital version of the WKDY Studio Palma Travel Guide. What you will find inside includes:

˙ Hotels to consider staying in, with notes on architecture and design, room availability, location consideration and the unique features that inspired me to include them as part of this guide.

˙ Recommendations for dining and drinks, organized by cuisine type, with notes on what menu items to consider ordering, as well as restaurant setting, hours, interior design, and any other special qualities.

˙ Suggestions for historical sites to visit, which includes a very brief history, as well as other destinations of interest.

˙ The best shops to pop into on your wanderings. My advice is meant to help you find unique treasures and souvenirs to bring home with you, those not found in your typical tourist shops.

˙ Beaches and day trip itineraries to consider in Mallorca. I encourage you to take at least one or two day trips, Mallorca is magic.

˙ Tips on getting around the island: car rentals, bus routes, etc

˙ And a few extra notes that you might not find in other guides.

  • In addition to living in Palma and personally being able to recommend to you the places that I enjoy most, I have also done the deep dives into the internet, so you don’t have to. I researched the best blogs and travel resources before I moved to Palma, and my enjoyment of the culture and lifestyle here continues to keep me connected.

    For me, travel research feels like digging for precious gems, and I genuinely find delight in the process of discovery - but I also know that it can be quite time intensive. There are what can feel like an endless amount of resources available to us, and to really get the best advice, I feel like you need to cross reference multiple sources, and then go and experience them for yourself. This is the type of research I love to immerse myself into, and it’s the kind that will save you hours upon hours of doing it yourself.

    Encouraged by friends, this concept emerged as a way to share my most loved places and sincere advice to help you make the most of your time on this incredible island. Curated with the same level of care I take for a close friend’s visit, my intention is to guide you you through this special place, with a sense of ease.

  • Fantastic travel guide!

    Thoughtfully curated and beautifully laid out travel guide! It has everything you need for a trip to Palma: amazing restaurant recommendations, tips on where to stay, how to get around, and where to go on day trips. Really loved that restaurant suggestion have recommendations on some dishes to try—felt very personalised and like someone tailored a trip just for me. I also have the WKDY curated google map list and website, which really makes it a lot easier to just land in Palma and be able to navigate stress-free. You can tell the author loves Mallorca, and her guide is so friendly it just makes you excited to visit and try as many of the spots you can, and none of them disappoint.

  • Very helpful guide

    This guide includes a discount for a digital map that loads into your google map. You can then find the places she suggests in the book and more as you are making your away around Mallorca. More than makes up for limited map within the book itself.

    The recommended day trips are great, for those with or without a car. Strongly recommend for short or long trip to Palma.

  • Unique Insider Tips & Easy Navigation!

    Getting a local’s perspective was super helpful when we were deciding where to go. It actually felt as though we were traveling with a friend! Really liked how everything is organized into collections, so we could just choose the type of cuisine we were after, or the area in Mallorca we wanted to explore. Also loved the wkdy studio website and custom member google maps, we were constantly referencing them during our time on the island, and they led us to the best spots. Thank you for creating this guide!

  • Great insiders guide to the island!

    This guide had all of the information we were looking for, and ended up saving us a ton of research time. The restaurants we booked through the guide all ended up being incredible. Any time we veered away from the recommendations, we were let down - stick to the guide! It also lists the most current spots that are worth visiting, we appreciated that it was up to date. Mallorca is actually a pretty big island, and we liked that the day trip section gave us beach and restaurant suggestions for different areas of the island. This made it a lot easier for us to plan how and where to spend our days. Our favorites were Port de Soller, Cala Llombards followed by dinner at La Nouvelle Famille in Santanyi, and Cala Mesquida and our experience at Can Simoneta. Great guide for a 10 day holiday, and easy to carry around - highly recommend.
