Living here

Around 1,600 people live in Santa Eugènia, a village at the foot of a pine-covered hill on the western edge of the Pla, with vineyards and almond groves around it. It has a primary school, a health unit and a pharmacy, and Palma and the airport are about 30 minutes away by car. For commuters and families, it offers quiet village life with the city close at hand.

The village lies at about 150 metres, at the foot of the eastern slope of the Puig de Santa Eugènia, some 22 km from Palma. About 1,600 of the municipality’s 1,900 residents live in the village, the rest in the hamlets of Ses Alqueries, Ses Olleries and Ses Coves. The name goes back to Bernat de Santa Eugènia, who was granted land here after Jaume I’s conquest of Mallorca in 1229. For centuries the village belonged to Santa Maria del Camí, and it became a municipality of its own for good only in 1843. Vineyards, almond trees and pine woods surround it, and it lies within the Binissalem wine denomination.

Life centres on the parish church, whose organ was built in Palma in 1840, and the town hall square, Plaça Bernat de Santa Eugènia. The village has a pharmacy, a bakery, a supermarket, a few bars and restaurants, a library, a municipal nursery and CEIP Mestre Guillemet, the state infant and primary school. The old railway station, opened in 1897 on the Santa Maria to Felanitx line, is now the sports centre, and a municipal pool opens in summer. TIB bus 304 runs to Palma and Inca. For a big supermarket shop, the train or out-of-hours medical care, Santa Maria del Camí is 10 to 15 minutes away.

Sant Antoni is celebrated in January. The Fira Agrícola i Ramadera, each April with its main day on a Sunday, fills the streets with stalls, farm machinery and livestock; 2026 brought its 44th edition. The summer fiestas run from July into early August, with sports, an open-air supper, street dances and a mass for Santa Eugènia, and the yearly Mostra d’Arts Escèniques brings theatre, circus and music in early September. A path climbs the Puig to the Pinar des Senyor, a hilltop pine wood given to the village in 1995, and a monument put up on its summit in 1950, with views to the Tramuntana and the Bay of Alcúdia.

Who buys here

The municipality has grown from under 900 people in 1981 to about 1,900 in 2025. About half an hour from Palma by car, and a little longer by bus, it is within commuting range of the city, and its nursery, school and village festivals make it an easy place for families to settle. The choice is mainly between a village house within walking distance of the school and the square, and a country house among the vines and almond trees.

Property

The old centre around the church and the town hall square has traditional terraced village houses, some on narrow streets. Land registry records show many newer houses around it, from the 1950s to the 1970s and the 1990s and 2000s. In 2022 the town hall said the municipality had little land available for building, so the choice is limited. Outside the village, country houses and old estates sit among vines, almonds and pines; on rural land, get a lawyer to confirm that everything built is legal. The hamlets of Ses Alqueries, Ses Olleries and Ses Coves are protected heritage sites, where works also need the Consell de Mallorca’s approval.

Questions buyers ask

Can I get to Palma by bus or train?

By bus, yes. TIB line 304 reaches Palma’s Estació Intermodal in 30 to 40 minutes, stopping at Son Llàtzer hospital, with 10 buses each way on weekdays and 5 at weekends and on holidays. The nearest train station is in Santa Maria del Camí: the on-demand 343d bus goes there three times each way on weekdays (book by 21:00 the day before), but its stop is about a 15-minute walk from the station.

What health care is there in the village?

The health unit on Carrer Josep Balaguer opens from 8:00 to 15:00 on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. It belongs to the Santa Maria del Camí health centre, which runs urgent care (PAC) in the evenings, at night and at weekends, and the reference hospital is Son Llàtzer in Palma, about 20 minutes by car.

What schools are there?

The village has a municipal nursery, the Escoleta Maria Sánchez Servera, and a state infant and primary school, CEIP Mestre Guillemet. A school bus takes secondary pupils to IES Santa Maria in Santa Maria del Camí.

Can I renovate a house in the hamlets nearby?

Ses Alqueries, Ses Olleries and Ses Coves were declared protected heritage sites (Bé d’Interès Cultural) in 2009, so works there have needed approval from the Consell de Mallorca as well as the town hall. A special protection plan, initially approved in 2020 and amended in 2022, would let the town hall grant licences on its own once finally approved, so check whether it is in force before you buy.
