Proud heritage
Club MAC Alcudia is a first-rate family resort. It is based in the historic port town of Alcudia, in sunny Majorca. This island has a proud history dating back to Roman times. Signs of its vibrant past can still be spotted today.
The island was a refuge for artists for hundreds of years. This helped Majorca develop a distinct artistic culture over time. This culture produced breathtaking art, music, and architecture that inspired some of history’s greatest creatives. These include Chopin, Ruben Dario, and Joan Miro.
