Bendinat is a residential area in the municipality of Calvià, on the south-west coast of Mallorca, between Palma and Portals Nous. This guide covers property for sale in Bendinat: the area, the homes and the checks before buying or selling.
What Bendinat is like
The area takes its name from Bendinat Castle, surrounded by gardens and pine woods. Bendinat has its own golf course and a stretch of coast with small coves, and the Puerto Portals marina is next door.
Bendinat sits beside the Ma-1 motorway, which makes Palma and the airport easy to reach. Illetes is close by on the coast towards Palma, and several international schools are nearby.
Bendinat is popular with families and with people who work in Palma but prefer a quieter residential setting. Many homes are lived in all year round, and shops, supermarkets and services are close at hand in Portals Nous and along the main road. The coastal path and small coves make it easy to enjoy the sea without driving to a larger beach.
Types of property in Bendinat
Bendinat is mainly made up of detached villas on large plots, many with gardens and pools, as well as apartments in developments with shared gardens, some with sea or golf views.
Whatever the type of home, the condition of the property, its orientation, its outdoor space and the state of its documents make a real difference to its value and to how easy it is to sell. Before you compare properties for sale in Bendinat, it is worth knowing what to look out for.
What to check before buying in Bendinat
- Licences and built area of villas, pools and annexes.
- Community fees and rules in residential developments.
- Properties close to the coast: possible Coastal Law limitations.
- Holiday rental licences.
- The nota simple from the Land Registry, the IBI receipt and, if there is one, the community of owners’ certificate of no debts.
Never sign an arras contract or pay a deposit before these points have been checked. It is much easier to solve a problem, or walk away, before you are committed.
