Hito

Top choice in Pollença


A gallery, designer homeware store and artist-in-residence project rolled into one, Hito is run by New York expat jewellers Gillian Conroy and Danica Wilcox. On display are eye-catching, one-of-a-kind local crafts and accessories, from Teixits Vincens' fine robes de llengües (Mallorcan striped fabrics) to sheepskin baby booties and faux hunting trophies made of felt.

There are rotating art exhibitions upstairs, many of which have a contemporary slant, and downstairs you'll find the Museu Martí Vicenç.
