29.5 million in Puigpunyent: Luxury finca or symptom of a bigger question?

Answer

How much water does a luxury finca in Mallorca typically need?

A finca with extensive gardens, irrigation and heated pools can place a noticeable demand on water, especially in dry Mallorcan summers. The exact use depends on the property, but features such as olive groves, vineyards, pools and ornamental planting all add to the pressure. That is why water management is often one of the main concerns around large rural estates.
