Cases de Son Barbassa

Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Spain

The ancient houses of Cases de Son Barbassa, with their 16th-century watchtowers, are filled with history but the rooms have all the essential modern luxuries: flat-screen TV, minibar, and big, supremely comfortable bed. The stone-floored bathroom, like the rest of this boutique hotel in Mallorca, is modern and ergonomically considered.
