Best Luxury Hotels in Majorca

For those who want to be pampered in every possible way, there are few hotels that can compare to the Sheraton Mallorca Arabella Golf Hotel. As you might expect golf is at the heart of the hotel’s draw and guests are able to play unlimited golf at no cost when they stay at least one night. Even those who are not big fans of teeing off will appreciate the luxurious spa treatments, numerous restaurants and services that include private airport transfers. There are amenities for children as well as adults, and the hotel is designed to be a haven just outside of the hustle and bustle of Palma de Mallorca.

Like the Forum Boutique Hotel, this is better suited to an older clientele — children aged 12 and over are welcome. Hotel Can Mostatxins is named after a butcher (specifically his notable moustache) who once lived in these sensitively restored 15th and 19th-century buildings. A plunge pool and spa are hidden in an atmospheric courtyard and there are just eight bedrooms, ensuring a boutique experience. It’s independently owned and very homely. There’s no restaurant or cafe, but the hotel is conveniently located close to the town square, with restaurants and bars a stone’s throw away. Its public areas comprise an honest bar, library and small boutique.

Proving Alcudia isn’t all about young families, this is a hotel catering exclusively to adults. Exposed natural stone walls, pine beams, clean lines, Scandi furnishings, contemporary watercolour artworks, oversized freestanding tubs and industrial-chic lighting all contribute to a peaceful sophistication at Forum Boutique, which first opened in 2018. Guests can swim in an outdoor saltwater pool, relax in the interior garden and stargaze from the terrace hot tub. Forum Boutique has 16 bedrooms in total, a shared lounge and a bar and is located along a pretty cobbled street, a few minutes walk from the town marketplace.

Those seeking an all-inclusive holiday with five-star service and amenities need look no further than the expansive Zafiro Palace. Its facilities and 369 bedrooms are spread across multiple single-storey buildings, creating a low rise village-like feel. Stay here and you can swim in no less than 12 different pools (one catering for adults only), play on the golf course, visit the Zen Spa and dine in four themed restaurants (again, one is for adults only), as well as an international buffet. The Zafiro Palace is a family paradise too, with a kids’ club, organised sports and a food offering designed to appeal to younger – in addition to more mature – palates.

The Lodge Mallorca offers that rare and perfect balance – a serene retreat that still embraces discovery and adventure. This boutique sanctuary, with signature lavender fields, in the UNESCO-protected Sierra de Tramuntana welcomes guests with elegantly appointed suites, between the historic farmhouse and standalone buildings across the 157-hectare estate. Days unfold at your preferred pace – perhaps lounging by the stylish infinity pool, indulging in fire-cooked Mediterranean cuisine at ‘Singular’ restaurant, rejuvenating in the wellness area with its pool and wooden barrel sauna, or exploring over 20km of private trails.

The Four Seasons Resort Mallorca at Formentor is an exquisite luxury resort nestled on the serene Formentor Peninsula. This historic property has been meticulously restored to blend classic Mediterranean charm with modern comforts. It offers a variety of accommodation options, including rooms and suites with views of lush gardens or the crystal-clear sea, some featuring private plunge pools. Enjoy an array of dining experiences, a full-service spa, outdoor pools, and activities such as hiking, water sports, and boating. The resort’s design emphasises tranquillity and connection with nature, making it an ideal destination for relaxation and rejuvenation. The Formentor Peninsula is known for its breathtaking scenery, and the resort offers direct access to pristine beaches and lush pine forests.

If you like pools, you’ll love it here. The Zafiro Palace has 10, ensuring both adults and kids can get their own spaces to chill and splash around. Two of these are within the Zen Spa, where you can book a range of treatments. The low-rise resort lies close to the beach and offers soothingly decorated rooms in earthy and coastal shades. All come with Nespresso machines, pillow menus, bathrobes and slippers, while the one-bedroom penthouse suite provides a kitchenette and a huge terrace with a jacuzzi and Bali bed. During the summer there’s a programme of activities and entertainment around the clock. And there are several dining options; The Market Buffet Restaurant, La Veranda Restaurant, El Olivo, El Portico and Tastes and Sushi Bar Restaurant.

Book an adults-only getaway, in the heart of the action, at Palmanova, in the vibrant Magaluf area. Calvia is found between the town beaches of Palmanova and Son Matias, with a wealth of places to go and things to do, on the doorstep. Cook’s Club Calvià Beach received a full makeover in 2023 and provides both single, twin and double bedrooms. Beside the swimming pool and infinity pool, you’ll find a solarium and a stretch of hotel beach, where the scene of many a party will be held this season. Cook’s Club Calvià Beach hosts nightly live DJ sets, an indoor and outdoor bar, restaurant, sun terraces and a gym.

Nestled in the heart of Mallorca’s idyllic countryside the historic Zoetry Mallorca occupies a restored 14th-century country estate boasting its very own neo-gothic chapel, windmill and Mallorcan manor house. Its 101 rooms and suites are inside these architecturally preserved buildings and seamlessly blend Mallorcan heritage with modern amenities. Zoetry’s Pure Spa by Natura Blisse offers guests many different world-class treatments and is the perfect way to switch off and relax. Yet Zoetrys piece de resistance is its restaurant Mediterranean created by the renowned chef Andreu Genestra. It not only boasts a Michelin star but also has a green Michelin star, the restaurant prides itself on its use of local produce and has its own farm and vineyard. Zoetry also offers The Endless Privileges package which offers guests the height of luxury, with bespoke and attentive service, unique experiences and endless dining and drinks. Zoetry is the perfect luxury boutique hotel for guests wishing to soak up the beauty of the Mallorcan interior and relax.

With the idyllic Cala Giverola Cove at its centre, Zel Mallorca is a must-stay destination for any guest wanting sun, sea and relaxation. The Cala Giverola is an oasis nestled between the mountains and the ocean and its golden sand beaches are perfect for guests wishing to soak in the sun. Zel Mallorca expertly utilises natural light, Mediterranean colours and art to create a lively yet calming atmosphere inside the hotel. Its rooms are playful and welcoming with more luxurious rooms boasting private balconies and sea views. Its fully equipped spa provides guests with a perfect way to relax and its fully equipped gym as well as its tennis courts provides guests with a chance to stay fit. The hotel also runs yoga and meditation sessions for its guests and has bikes which guests can use to explore the surrounding area.  The hotel’s 5 restaurants and bars make the hotel not only a wellbeing hub but a gastronomic one as well. Simply put, Zell Mallorca is the definition of relaxation.

Also known as The Quiet Hotel, this is a peaceful haven for adults only. Housed in a refined mansion, it has 23 rooms, each with private terraces. The hotel is big on art and wellness. There are two outdoor swimming pools (one of which is heated with hydrotherapy), hammocks, sunbeds, a sauna, a gym, a spa with a variety of treatments and a bike garage for cyclists. The public areas feature paintings and sculptures by Mallorcan and international artists. And the hotel’s gastronomy is based on local ingredients, with the bar offering an excellent range of Balearic vermouths.

Just steps from the Mediterranean coastline, the St. Regis Mardavall Majorca Resort is a top choice for those who want quick access to beautiful beaches. From their basic rooms all the way up to diamond suites, the decor is lavish yet tasteful. The full spa and fitness facility is among the best on the island, and it serves as a place where guests can completely unwind and relax in paradise. Golf enthusiasts will appreciate the four courses as well as a golf academy, which is where you can perfect your swing or get advice from a professional golfer. Dining is exceptional, and guests can dig into gourmet cuisine at Aqua or indulge in some tapas with cocktails by the pool.
