Boka detta om You want a Michelin-starred Mallorcan village fantasy where you can eat like a king and never leave the property.
Varför människor älskar det
- 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
Snabb Överblick: It's a stunning manufactured village that requires strong calves or patience for the buggy service.
Recenserat av @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.

FAQ & Dolda tips
Allt du verkligen vill veta innan du bokar.
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.
Insider-tips
- ✨
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 saker du bör veta innan du åker
💡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.
