Summary
Ciutat Jardí is a seafront residential neighbourhood on the eastern side of the Bay of Palma, east of Es Molinar and Es Coll d'en Rabassa. It began in the 1920s as a garden-city development of detached houses, and the name means 'garden city' in Catalan. It has its own sandy beach with a promenade, and the seafront is continuous from here to the city centre.
Compared with the municipality as a whole it is lower-rise and more residential, with a mix of original villas, later apartment buildings and a small commercial strip along the beach, and it has a settled year-round population rather than a resort character.

Buying in Ciutat Jardi
- Palma has not issued new ETV (holiday-rental) licences for apartments in multi-family buildings since 2018, and a Balearic-wide moratorium on new holiday-rental places has applied since February 2022, with a further decree in April 2025 banning new holiday flats in multi-family buildings across the archipelago.
- Single-family houses in Palma may still qualify for a tourist rental licence subject to PIAT zoning and availability of tourist-place quota; this is not automatic and must be checked property by property.
- Beachfront plots are subject to the Spanish Coastal Law (Ley de Costas) protection strip, which limits works close to the shore; the applicable line is set by the Demarcación de Costas.
- An existing ETV licence attaches to the property but does not transfer automatically on sale; the new owner must notify the Consell Insular de Mallorca to hold it legally.
Selling in Ciutat Jardi
- Buyers are a mix of Palma families wanting a house near the sea within the city, and European second-home owners looking for a beach location with easy airport access.
- Detached villas, particularly those close to the beach, are the scarce segment; apartments in the mid-century blocks are the more common offer.
- Proximity to the airport flight path is a factor some buyers weigh, and it differentiates parts of the neighbourhood.
