"Make a day trip to Deià, only 45-minutes away from Palma by car. While you’re on the road, stop into the town of Valldemossa to see the monastery where composer Frédéric Chopin shacked up with his girlfriend George Sand, who wrote about the experience in her book Winter in Majorca (which makes for a fitting vacation read). The monastery still houses the piano Chopin and Sand painstakingly shipped to the island for their stay."
