If you are staying in Palma and just having a city break, you don't need to rent a car. If you have time during your visit, it is worth hiring a car to explore the beauty of the island. The other drivers were considerate and sensible, and the roads were good.

Having a car in Mallorca is a must because there is alot of great places to see. Having a car offers that flexibility, but definitely use a reliable resource.

The only issue was the windy, mountainous roads and the huge number of cyclists which could be problematic for some. Far more patient in terms of their drivers though compared to Italy/France
