THE HISTORY
Built during the most opulent time in Mallorca’s modern history, Casa Marés’ is a reimagined Parisian jewel with a story to tell. Belle Époque is the term often given to a period of French and European history in the late 19th century.
Its origin story dates back to 1860 when Soller’s agricultural industry was devastated by a plague of insects causing many locals to move north to France in search of work. 30 years later the orange cultivation and export trade suddenly began to boom in Sóller after scientists had discovered the health benefits of vitamin C. Sóller’s “golden valley” produced the finest oranges in the world and it soon became one of the wealthiest towns in Europe. The travellers returned loaded with French culture and architectural influences. They built magnificent houses with Marès stone facades and lavish wrought-iron balconies and entrances.
Constructed in the iconic year 1900 in Sóllers most sought after “La Huerta” neighbourhood was Casa Marès, a marvel of architecture that represented the finest quality of life in the early 20th century. Today, the property pays the utmost respect to its heritage and its contemporary reformation once more represents the finest quality of living, only this time in the 21st century.
