The "posh" parts of Mallorca are areas like Son Vida (Palma's "Beverly Hills"), Port d'Andratx, Puerto Portals, Bendinat, and mountain villages like Valldemossa, known for luxury villas, marinas, golf, exclusive restaurants, and attracting affluent residents and celebrities. The north around Pollença is also considered upscale but offers more traditional charm, while Palma's Old Town & Calatrava offer historic elegance.

Choose Ibiza for world-class DJs and boho-chic, Mallorca for historic charm, varied landscapes (Serra de Tramuntana), and broader appeal.
