CITY GUIDE · MALLORCA
We compare Mallorca hotels by coastline first, because the island is large and the drive between the Tramuntana mountains, Palma and the east coast shapes the whole stay.
Palma suits a short or culture-led stay: Can Bordoy Grand House Hotel GL Preferred Hotel and Convent de la Missio Boutique Hotel GL, Adults Only – Preferred Hotels & Resorts sit in the old town, while Castillo Hotel Son Vida, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Mallorca is in the hills above the city. The southwest coast around Calvià and Costa d'en Blanes, with The St. Regis Mardavall Mallorca Resort and Mandarin Oriental Punta Negra, Mallorca, works for beach-and-resort stays within easy reach of Palma, and Cap Rocat looks over the Bay of Palma from Cala Blava. The Tramuntana side is the quieter, more scenic option: La Residencia, A Belmond Hotel, Mallorca in Deià, Jumeirah Mallorca at Port de Sóller, Son Bunyola Hotel & Villas in Banyalbufar and Grand Hotel Son Net inland at Puigpunyent. In the north, Four Seasons Mallorca at Formentor occupies the Formentor peninsula. On the east coast, Cap Vermell Grand Hotel and Hotel Pleta de Mar Grand Luxury, adults only – Preferred Hotels & Resorts are both at Canyamel. Kimpton Aysla Mallorca by IHG is at Santa Ponsa on the west side, and Finca Banyols, Vignette Collection is a countryside base at Alaró.
