The 'hilltop village' design feels authentic, not like a concrete block hotel
VORO's 2-Michelin-star tasting menu is a destination in itself
Access to the massive Cap Vermell Country Club adds serious fitness perks
En bref : It's a stunning manufactured village that requires strong calves or patience for the buggy service.
Évalué par @LuxuryTravel: I spent my mornings just soaking in the Canyamel Valley views from this terrace. The breakfast spread was incredible, and the silence here is exactly what I needed to recharge. It feels more like a private village than a hotel. Absolutely loved the peaceful vibe.
Ce que les clients qui ont séjourné ici ont dit
The hype
Guests are blown away by the breakfast spread and the sheer size of the suites, which feel like private apartments.
Reality check
Service can be 'island time' slow, especially at the pool bar and when calling for a buggy to get to dinner.
You are a foodie who plans travel around Michelin stars
You prefer mountain views and privacy over direct beach access
You want a resort that feels like a self-contained town
Propreté et entretien
9
Housekeeping: Generally impeccable twice-daily service, though rare reviews mention missed turndown on busy nights.
Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling marble and high-end Bottega Veneta toiletries; very few complaints.
Maintenance: Excellent condition, though the complex layout means occasional AC or plumbing quirks in specific rooms.
Linens & towels: Plush, heavy, and crisp. No complaints here.
Odors & scents: Lobby smells of fresh flowers; some ground-floor rooms have reported a faint 'earthy' or damp scent.

FAQ et astuces cachées
Tout ce que vous voulez vraiment savoir avant de réserver.
Is it actually on the beach?
No. It is in a valley about 1km inland. You have to walk 15 mins or take the hotel shuttle.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the adults-only pool and the lap pool at the Country Club are heated; the main family pool can be chilly in shoulder season.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, it is pet-friendly for dogs up to 8kg for a fee of approx €30/night.
Is it suitable for kids?
Surprisingly yes. There is a kids' club and a dedicated kids' pool, though the vibe is definitely more 'quiet luxury'.
How much is the city tax?
Expect to pay around €4.40 per person per night (for guests 16+) during high season.
Do I need a car?
Highly recommended. The hotel is isolated, and taxis to nearby towns like Artà or Capdepera add up quickly.
Conseils d'initiés
✨
The 'Serenitas Spa' has the only Alpha Quartz Sand Bed on the island—it's like a heated sand massage and worth the splurge.
✨
Don't just eat at the hotel; the 'Porxada de Sa Torre' restaurant is a 5-minute walk away and serves legendary suckling pig.
✨
Request a room with a 'sunset view' specifically; the valley orientation makes golden hour spectacular.
5 choses à savoir avant de partir
💡The 'Village Square' is artificial but charming; it feels like a movie set of a Spanish town.
💡The walk to the beach is downhill, but the walk back is a steep, sweaty uphill hike.
💡You might spot Rafa Nadal at the Country Club (his academy is nearby and he's from the area).
💡Room service breakfast is sometimes served in boxes rather than on trays due to the buggy transport logistics.
💡The 'damp' smell complaint in reviews usually comes from ground-floor rooms built into the hillside—ask for a higher floor.
