Discover boutique hotels in Mallorca, Spain
Mallorca’s luxury villas and boutique hotels vary almost as much as the island itself: there are hip, minimal fincas, traditional townhouses and mountain retreats aplenty. Palma is the island’s self-assured capital, where yachts and cocktails cohabit happily with ancient winding streets beneath the towering, pink-hued Gothic cathedral. Escape the 21st century on the dramatic north coast or among the Serra de Tramuntana mountains; and head to the hilltop village of Deià for its literary credentials and insouciant elegance.

Getting there
-
Planes
Palma airport (+34 971 789099) is 10km south of the capital city – the drive to the centre shouldn’t take more than 15 minutes. Monarch (www.monarch.co.uk) flies to Palma three times a week from London Gatwick and Manchester. -
Boats
There are several ferry services to the mainland: Barcelona (4hrs); Valencia (6hrs). See www.trasmediterranea.es for details. -
Trains
There are two railway lines from Palma, one heads north-east to Inca, and the other heads north to Sóller. If you take the vintage electric train from Palma to Sóller, then you can enjoy the scenic route from there to Port de Sóller by tram. -
Automobiles
Driving is a breeze on this island, and roads are well signposted. Avis (www.avis.com) has care hire branches in various locations on the island. Taxis
Cabs are cheap and easy to find in Palma itself, but you’re better off hiring a car if you plan to do any longer journeys around the island.
Cap Rocat, Mallorca
If you have new-season swimwear to show off that is best accessorised by a 19th-century Mallorcan fort (every good bikini needs battlements for a backdrop), Cap Rocat is the place to do it. High in drama, blessed with sweeping sea views and radiating exclusivity from drawbridge to turret, it’s a secluded, adults-only hideaway, where supermodels and super yachters go for superlative service and one of the sexiest poolsides on the Med.
Andreu Genestra
The man behind the kitchens of 17th-century rural estate Predi San Jaumell in Mallorca may have been born in the Balearics, but his culinary travels have taken him all over the world (via a three-season stint at El Bulli). Here in the Mallorcan countryside, he has precision-crafted a small but explosively flavoursome menu that takes island ingredients (home-grown olive oil, fish fresh from the coast, bread from the hotel’s own wheat fields) and turns them into contemporary culinary masterpieces. At an astonishingly good-value €38, his tasting menu is unmissable.
