The 16 Best Luxury Hotels on Mallorca (2025)

Mallorca sits in the heart of the Mediterranean, where honey-coloured beaches meet rugged mountains, pine forests roll into farmland, and Palma’s cathedral rises above a buzzing harbour. The island is made for variety: lazy days at the best beach resorts, long lunches in the old town, and quiet escapes in the countryside. Our pick of the best luxury hotels on Mallorca spans glamorous seaside hideaways, historic palaces in the capital, stylish boutique stays, and family-friendly resorts with space to unwind. Whether you’re here to splash out or simply savour the setting, there’s a standout stay to match.

For an escape

• Belmond La Residencia in Deià feels deeply rooted in its village setting. Interiors showcase Mallorcan antiques, textured fabrics and romantic four-poster beds opening onto lush gardens. Expect a refined spa, serene pools and a destination restaurant that turns local produce into art, all framed by Tramuntana mountain views.
• Son Brull Hotel and Spa in Pollença delivers understated rural luxury inside a former monastery. Rooms are calm and contemporary, opening onto vineyard and mountain views. The spa is restorative rather than showy, while the restaurant draws crowds for its confident, produce-driven menus. Perfect for walkers, wine lovers and switch-off stays.
• Castell Son Claret is a grand 14th-century castle reborn as an elegant hideaway. Expect soaring stone arches, polished courtyards and stately rooms with modern comforts. A serious spa offers yoga and treatments, while the Michelin-starred restaurant anchors the experience with ambitious cuisine.

For a romantic retreat

• With just 12 rooms, Valldemossa feels quietly exclusive. Think stone walls, antique details and refined Mallorcan interiors that suit the mountain setting. A serious gourmet restaurant anchors the experience, while the spa and outdoor pool make it ideal for slow, restorative days together.
• Carved into the coastline, Hospes Maricel is all drama and sea views. Rooms feature crisp contemporary design and floor-to-ceiling windows facing the Mediterranean. Dine on the sun terrace above the water, then drift between the infinity pool and the sea for a deeply atmospheric, adults-focused escape.
• Ca's Xorc is rustic, intimate and surrounded by wild Tramuntana scenery. Its airy rooms open onto terraces with sweeping valley views, perfect for unhurried mornings. The Mediterranean restaurant is a highlight, showcasing local produce, while the peaceful setting makes it feel wonderfully removed from the world.

For the beach

• Perched on the cliffs of Canyamel, Can Simoneta feels intensely private. Just 13 rooms overlook the sea, while sharp-lined interiors frame the views. A terrace restaurant hovers above the water, and dramatic stone steps carved into the rock lead straight to the Mediterranean below the cliffs.

For a city break

• Hidden behind heavy stone walls in Palma’s old town, Hotel Convent de la Missió is a former 17th-century convent that feels calm and precise. Whitewashed interiors, vaulted ceilings and contemporary art set the tone. With just 27 rooms and a Michelin-starred restaurant drawing island insiders, it’s a sharp choice for design-led city breaks.
• Palacio Ca Sa Galesa- Steps from the cathedral, this 12-room palacio leans fully into its history. Think carved wood, stained glass, tapestries and eccentric antiques. The standout spa occupies original Roman baths, while the rooftop sun terrace delivers cathedral spires and sea views. Ideal for travellers who want character over uniformity.
• Can Cera is a grand Palma townhouse that has the polish of a private residence. Expect original stone floors, antiques, oil paintings and rich fabrics across just 12 rooms. Several suites open onto private balconies, while the rooftop restaurant serves refined Mallorcan cooking with panoramic old-town views. Discreet, classic and intimate.

For families

• Set inside a centuries-old Mallorcan mansion, Son Julia feels grand yet relaxed. Stone walls, lofty ceilings and calm courtyards frame just 25 rooms. Families love the twin pools, hot tub and hammam, while parents escape to the gym and Mediterranean restaurant, with space to roam safely.
• Finca Son Gener is intimate and rural, sitting between beach and mountains. Ten spacious suites feature oak beams, pale stone and private terraces. Children can wander orchards and olive groves, while adults book spa time or linger over traditional Mallorcan cooking, in a calm, traffic-free setting.

For a hip hotel

• Hotel Tres occupies a restored 16th-century townhouse in Palma’s old town, delivering sharp minimal interiors of stone, wood and clean lines. Forty-one generous rooms, some facing the cathedral. The rooftop is the headline: pool, sauna and city-wide views, plus a buzzy courtyard bar below the historic arches.

For great value

• Set inside a restored modernist mansion, Hotel L'Avenida delivers polished, contemporary interiors with high ceilings, statement lighting and refined furnishings. Rooms feel calm and tailored rather than showy. Step outside and you’re moments from Sóller’s best cafes, galleries and tram to the port. An affordable base.
• La Moraleja feels like a private retreat between sea and mountains. Just 22 rooms, each individually styled with bold artwork and expansive terraces. Dining ranges from relaxed poolside lunches to candlelit dinners. Add a games room, library, vintage car collection and a sociable bar, and it’s quietly distinctive yet well-priced.
• Housed in a 16th-century palace in La Lonja, Palau sa Font pairs historic bones with crisp Mediterranean design. Expect handcrafted furniture, tiled floors and original contemporary art across 19 light-filled rooms. The rooftop plunge pool and terrace deliver panoramic old-town views without the crowds. A good value option.
