Mallorca is a diamond of "pure water" in the constellation of the Balearic Islands with a high content of land "carats". The largest island in the local waters of the Mediterranean Sea is under the jurisdiction of the Kingdom of Spain. The treasury of the Spanish "Infanta" contains a lot of riches: a precious necklace of fashionable resorts, intricate mountain peaks born of magic limestone, lovely bays hidden away from human eyes, plantations of citrus trees and the unique flavor of the Moorish and Roman styles, an architectural ensemble woven into a single architectural ensemble.
The Mediterranean coast in these places is famous for its mild subtropical climate, which allows tourists who choose 5-star hotels in Mallorca with their own beach to spend their holidays in a truly paradise. Beach activities on the island are distinguished by an enviable variety: lazy pastime on the seashore in the role of “seals” satisfied with life can be alternated with diving and windsurfing, water fun can be replaced by exciting trips around the area, night vigils in clubs and discos, acquaintance with the sights of the “royal” style in real palaces and castles. More than 8 million tourists visit this picturesque "fragment" of the Balearic archipelago every year, and if you decide to join them, quickly choose the best option from our offer.
Pleta de Mar, Luxury Hotel by Nature - Adults Only 5 *
A recent debutant in the tourism market, which has already managed to gain popularity among the tourist public. The top step of the service pedestal in the following nominations: interior design of rooms, solid cuisine in a restaurant, excellent grape wines as an addition to delicious meals, the bewitching beauty of the bay on the beach, well-trained staff in all respects. An unfortunate drawback in the form of a rather high cost of services plays into the hands of those travelers who prefer comfort, silence and voluntary solitude from the noisy crowd of travelers to a round-the-clock tourist sabbath.
Compact size allows guests to feel almost like on a desert island all day long. Helpful employees know how to perform their duties by 5 points silently and unnoticed. In the common areas near the pools, reception, bar, spa complex with a galaxy of wellness treatments, all the actions take place as if by magic. In such establishments one encounters with one's own eyes such a rare phenomenon in tourism as an absolutely impeccable service.
Families with small children are not accepted here, all services in a miniature fashionable residence are designed only for an adult audience. The collection of rooms also includes such a tempting offer as the category "suite with its own pool". A pretty private pond is equipped with a seating area with soft sofas and framed by thickets of tropical vegetation, hiding the guests of the room from prying eyes.
Grupotel Parc Natural & Spa 5 *
Undoubtedly excellent student of tourist training in all categories. The work of the maids in cleaning the premises is a separate article in the necklace of praise, however, as well as all the work of the staff in general. The home environment in the hotel's domain is surprisingly combined with the luxury of classic-style rooms. The area is so well thought out in terms of ergonomics that guests rarely meet each other, even in the era of the high beach season.
Every day, restaurant chefs try to impress the guests' imagination with regular culinary masterpieces; a special vegetarian line of dishes is organized for fans of a healthy lifestyle. Meal mode - HB (the so-called "half board" breakfast + dinner), hungry tourists can walk for lunch in a nearby restaurant with Spanish cuisine, which provides catering services at quite affordable prices. A bonus for guests is the proximity of a natural national park with plantations of southern flora. You can go for a walk by renting a bike or walking.
If you are active, you can visit the gym or hike through the shady garden with olive trees and blooming flower beds. Both youth companies and families with small tourists can spend their holidays here. A cozy beach with snow-white crystals of silk to the touch of sand, a convenient entrance to the sea and clear azure waters beckon to forget all business and indulge in water activities. Muro Beach pampers the eyes with amazing pictures worthy of the brush of famous artists.
Be Live Collection Palace de Muro 5 *
Direct and convenient access to a private beach, perhaps one of the best on the local Mediterranean coast. The entire infrastructure of the resort of Alcudia with a cascade of restaurants and shops close by. Among the guests there are many Russian-speaking tourists from all over the post-Soviet space. Meals are served in a promising buffet format, favored by travelers. Of the minuses, it is worth noting the slightly tired number of rooms and the territory that is too small for a serious pedestrian binge.
But sports lovers like a well-equipped gym for training and a comfortable beach with a gentle entrance to the sea, which allows them to go on vacation with irrepressible and fast-paced children. The whole family can swim without unnecessary adventures. The spa offers a standard set of wellness treatments, while the pool animators zealously try to cheer tourists up with exciting activities in the water or tasting exotic cocktails from the bartender. In the evenings, live music evenings are held in the hall of the institution with the participation of invited vocalists and musicians. Vacationers liked the classic design of the premises with modern touches of the Art Nouveau style.
The chefs sometimes give master classes in Spanish cuisine. Most often, it is proposed to thoroughly study the recipes and technologies for preparing hearty paella and the popular sangria drink based on wine, fruits, berries and sugar. The accommodation facility will hardly be able to claim the level of "royal apartments", but it could rightfully apply for the status - "country house of the Spanish marquis".
Iberostar Grand Portals Nous 5 *
Fashionable snow-white handsome, diluted with notes of turquoise sea waves and fragments of the decor of the premises. The designer renovation was made with impeccable taste - this is the first thing that catches the eye of every tourist. Spacious balconies overlooking the sea and the sandy beach with soft creamy silk cover just stretch out to admire the enchanting subtropical surroundings. White upholstered furniture, contrasting with the black gloss of plasma TVs and individual elements of the interior, give the rooms a truly royal chic.
Floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows open the eyes of the sea, stretching into an endless distance, and allow you to admire the sunsets of wondrous beauty. In the whole atmosphere of the five-star Spanish grandee one can feel the hand of a tourist master who has put into his ideas all his love for the exotic island and its attractively magical charm. In the arsenal of the institution you can find everything that a health-improving complex with the makings of an aristocrat from the highest caste should have.
Well-equipped swimming pools, a spa complex with a series of beauty and bath treatments, a bar with a collection of wines from local grapes and strong drinks from all over the world, staff who cannot say "no" to any requests and wishes of guests. The excellent food is worthy of Michelin stars for the culinary talent and love of the chefs for their craft.Meals are served in the cozy restaurant or on the picturesque open-air terrace.
Hotel Hospes Maricel y Spa 5 *
The luxurious territory of the hotel residence with fragrant green oases is divided into two large sections: the area of the Old Castle and a modern building. This sometimes causes bewilderment and ardent reluctance among tourists to go from one end to the other through a special underground passage.
Stylish rooms with panoramic windows and plunge pools on the balconies really amaze the imagination of the inexperienced tourist audience and bring to the involuntary thoughts of a heavenly resort life on the Mediterranean shores. The restaurants serve gourmet culinary delights. The menu includes such popular and healthy products as orange juice for breakfast, while the food itself is organized with elements of a buffet and a complex serving of hot dishes.
An unfortunate mistake in service - not very diligent staff in the food sector, who do not consider it their duty to notify customers that a delicious omelet, fragrant freshly brewed coffee and the same freshly squeezed citrus juice they will receive only after puzzling the waiters with this problem. Restaurant employees cannot boast of their ability to react quickly to a situation; sometimes you have to wait at least half an hour for serving dishes.
So the picturesque views around the open restaurant terrace have to save the day and distract the guests' attention. A well-maintained beach greets guests with a suite of free sun loungers with soft and cozy towels already prepared in advance. The clear sea pleases with almost constant calm and warm water temperature without cold currents and surprises. The distance to the central charms of the island is small, the location allows you to thoroughly explore the outlandish surroundings.
Zafiro Palace Alcudia 5 *
A relative newcomer to the tourism industry, already highly commended for service and dedication. A magnificent territory with a detachment of cozy pools with elements of a water park, a children's club and ubiquitous perky animators who are ready to entertain the young generation from morning to evening. When the stars light up in the sky, another day full of interesting events goes down in history, maestro entertainers who are entrusted with brightening up the leisure of an adult audience come into play, I must say that they do it very well.
Unobtrusive music, which has brought together world hits for every taste in live performance, creates a romantic mood and invites you to dance. You can enjoy the moment on the open terrace or on the balcony of the room, equipped with a seating area. There are several beaches nearby and tourists often choose not the closest one for the reason that the distant bays are more secluded and picturesque. The turquoise waters of the sea are crystal clear everywhere, and the velvet sand softly envelops your feet and invites you to lie down on a warm bed right at the water's edge. After the water orgy without time limits and sunbathing, it's time to recharge your batteries in one of 4 themed restaurants.
Here you can choose Japanese exotic sushi and rolls, Italian classics of pizza and pasta, or taste one of the common Mediterranean dishes with a spicy kaleidoscope of herbs, spices and seasonings that make these culinary delights especially southern and tart. Some confusion among the guests of the institution was caused by sanitary rooms without doors, separated from the room only by translucent glass partitions, depriving the privacy in the bathroom of intimacy. Fans of the triathlete were delighted by the indoor pool, specially equipped for training.
Gran Melia de Mar - Adults Only - The Leading Hotels of the World 5 *
The complex is for adults only, does not accept families with babies. A small cozy area is framed with plant masterpieces, which are clearly worked hard by skilled gardeners. There are 3 outdoor pools and a private miniature beach. The luxurious spa center, which provides massage services, cosmetology and has a whole round dance of assorted baths, has been entrusted with helping to learn the nirvana of sensual pleasures for the body.
The only small “but” is that many of the offered pleasures are not included in the standard service program. For a vacation with a touch of special luxury, you will have to pay separately by purchasing the Red Level package of services. You can also enjoy the extraordinarily delicious cuisine in one of the 4 restaurants or enjoy cocktails by the pool. And on a small private beach in general, you can feel like the legendary Robinson Crusoe on a tropical island, because it is equipped in such a way that only a small friendly company can be accommodated on it.
The miraculous rocky sculptures, as if deliberately dividing the coastline into a legion of small picturesque bays, indulge in solitude in a close circle on the seashore. In the evenings, guests gather with great pleasure in the open air to watch a movie or listen to live music, and desperate romantics try to count the stars on the black velvet of the sky, but each time then they abandon this hopeless venture.
Nixe Palace 5 *
Its own excellent sandy beach with unusually beautiful landscapes around the perimeter. A few steps from the hotel room, through a convenient gate, and here it is the cherished edge of the sea coast. It is better to take a place under the hot southern sun in advance: there are many who wish, and, alas, there is nothing at all, there is not enough for everyone. The territory, lovingly decorated by the caring hands of the staff, is not the largest in size, but very cozy. A small pool is located in the shade of the trees, but there is no noticeable full house near it, everyone is in a hurry to the gentle sea.
It is only 15 minutes by bus or 5 minutes by taxi to the very heart of the island, and now the vibrant pulse of the resort universe with all its tempting delights is in full swing. The cost of renting a taxi is 1.5 euros one way, but how many pleasures are around: shops, restaurants, attractions, joy and fun from all sides. All rooms have balconies or terraces of snow-white stone, which offer mesmerizing views of the bay dotted with palm trees, standing guard of honor around the aquamarine sea with clear water.
The buildings cascading down to the reservoir resemble a kind of Roman amphitheater, although the architectural style of the buildings themselves is rather closer to Moorish trends. All together, it resembles the scenery for an oriental fairy tale, and it seems that a dashing pirate ship will now appear from behind the rock and take the coast on board. The gentle entrance to the sea along the sandy bottom gives peace of mind to parents who come on vacation with small children. The food in the restaurant, if not exquisite, suits all guests with an excellent choice of dishes and taste characteristics.
Pure Salt Garonda - Adults Only 5 *
The rooftop pool is a chic highlight of this establishment. Swim and at the same time enjoy the enchanting landscapes of the surroundings - what could be more beautiful. The windows of the rooms also offer charming views of the sea and the bay, and in the evenings you can admire the sunsets of the orange sun, which goes to sleep in the dark depths of the sea. The distance to the beach is so scanty that, if you wish, you can relax on the sun loungers by the lower pool and occasionally swim in the sea, not far away from the building.
The calm and pacifying atmosphere pleasantly relaxes and at the same time fills with cheerfulness. The offered food service in the "half board" format, consisting of breakfast and dinner, does not cause complaints about the quality of the dishes, even among the most discerning guests.You can choose the diet on your own and limit yourself only to breakfasts if you are going to travel a lot around the island or prefer independent gastronomic tours to nearby catering outlets.
The hospitable hospitality of the staff, trying to help in solving any questions that arise, evokes sincere respect of travelers. The spa area of the property has a nice indoor pool and a cozy jacuzzi for 3-4 persons in case of bad weather, the price list includes health treatments, massage, and a bath complex. Nearby there is a great variety of facilities: the Mega Park entertainment club, a string of bars and restaurants, including the ubiquitous McDonald's, vehicle rental, a pharmacy, shops with beach goods.
Iberostar Selection Playa de Palma 5 *
Works on a very popular system - "all inclusive". There are not enough stars of overwhelming brightness from the sky, but it corresponds to its status of "excellent service worker" by 100%. One of the main advantages is the optimal price / quality ratio of the services provided. A quiet corner of the island, from the windows of the building there are pleasant to the eye views of the sea or intricate mountain peaks. Outside the walls, resort life rages with an enviable variety of offers: shops, souvenir shops, restaurants, rental cars and beach equipment.
All rooms are equipped with coffee machines, which has become a popular attribute of service in recent years; every day, tourists are brought bottled drinking water and the mini-bar is replenished with fresh snacks and drinks. The staff strictly adheres to the corporate ethics of the network tycoon Iberostar, known on all continents and does not allow any oversights in their work. The tourist public is served by several restaurants, the quality of the dishes in which cannot but cause admiration among the guests.
The beach is located just 20 m from the buildings, but you will have to go to it across the road, along which almost no transport travels, having long given the track to the mercy of cyclists squirming back and forth all day long. The cost of service in this residence cannot be called small, but this is exactly the case when tourists know what they are paying for and are not disappointed with a truly impeccable service.
Hotel Petit Cala Fornells 5 *
The island region of Cala Fornells is famous for landscapes of fabulous beauty and amazingly clear sea with azure shades of water. To the center of resort life - the village of Paguera, you will have to walk or drive a couple of kilometers. This corner of the Mediterranean coast was chosen by the Spaniards, who built residential complexes here, therefore there are only 3 hotel complexes in the district. The picturesque bay is divided on an equal footing, so the principle: whoever got up earlier will get the sunbeds, it works flawlessly here.
The coastline is claimed not only by tourists, but also by pleasure boats. So the fertile waters of the Mediterranean Sea can hardly be called easily accessible here. Cozy surroundings with a light hand can be called quiet and secluded. There are no noisy discos and sparkling nightclubs nearby. By evening, it becomes surprisingly calm in the area, only the stars and the moon are pensively gazing from the sky at the deserted coast. There are only 40 rooms of different categories in the accommodation facility itself. But there are several pools and there is never a crowd of tourists around them.
Travelers indulge in unpretentious pursuits on the large sun terrace. Someone thoughtfully reads books, someone sunbathes or fiddles with a phone or tablet. The staff sometimes seems to be not the most efficient, but the food in the restaurant is beyond praise, the long-term practice of the chefs, who have long studied all the wishes and quirks of the guests, affects. All day long, the bar tirelessly prepares aromatic coffee and exotic cocktails, and travelers, without a word, called the breakfasts on the Swedish line delicious and fantastically tasty.

The health complex receives an assessment of 10 points out of 10 from the guests deservedly.

The type of food is "half board" with breakfast and dinner in a Swedish format. The choice of dishes is colossal, the taste and quality of serving does not cause complaints. Of the minuses, tourists noted the old number of rooms and furniture tired from many years of work, clearly in need of updating. Travelers also expressed disapproval about the work of the staff.
The large number of vacationers clearly distracted them from some of the little things that slightly spoiled the guests' overall impression of the vacation. It was difficult to wait for the provision of a highchair for the kids in the restaurant, and upon departure, the guests did not wait for the employees who were supposed to deliver them and their luggage to the taxi called to the gate. General verdict: it's time to do a little work on the mistakes so as not to end up in a disastrous situation.
Formentor, a Royal Hideaway Hotel 5 *

The main credo of the staff is to work unobtrusively and efficiently.
The location at some distance from the resort civilization allows travelers to feel like real islanders who have climbed into a paradise with a mild subtropical climate. The beach area is framed by shady trees.The silence and peace is disturbed only by the whisper of leaves and birdsong. It is considered a truly exquisite place that has managed to combine in one ensemble the benefits of modern civilization and almost virgin southern nature with all its charming charms.
The harmonious atmosphere of the establishment may seem a little bland for a younger audience, accustomed to the endless fireworks of entertainment. This exclusive complex, reminiscent of an exotic Paradise on Earth, is more likely to appeal to families with teenagers or people of elegant age who can appreciate the tourist chic and aristocratic charm of a well-thought-out service. The very rare case when there are no complaints about the vacation and no one found flaws during the vacation.

The accommodation still breathes with novelty: a collection of pools, umbrellas and sun loungers in recreation areas, furniture in all rooms, tableware in restaurants.
For thrill-seekers at night, it will be good news that the Mega Park nightclub is located just a couple of hundred meters from the hotel property, however, the rest of the developed Spanish infrastructure is also very close.
