With around 3,000 inhabitants, it is only around 5 kilometers from the center of Palma and around 15 kilometers from the international airport.

Despite its proximity to the capital, Génova has retained its authentic character as a Mallorcan village and conveys a special blend of originality and upscale lifestyle. The history of the village dates back to the Middle Ages, when fishermen and farmers settled here, benefiting from the fertile soil and proximity to the coast. Traditional stone houses, narrow alleyways and small squares still characterize the picturesque village today. Génova is known for its typical restaurants, which have been serving Mallorcan cuisine for generations, as well as for a strong sense of community that unites locals and international residents. Due to its location above Palma, Génova enjoys an excellent infrastructure in a quiet environment. The beaches of Cala Major, Illetes or Portals Nous as well as several marinas can be reached in just a few minutes. For families, the region offers an ideal location with short distances to renowned international schools such as Queen's College International School or Bellver International College.
