Hotel Torralbenc, Alaior

This luxury hotel, converted from a traditional 19th-century Menorcan farmstead, is one of the island’s finest examples of boutique rustic-chic. The property is set in a series of low-rise whitewashed buildings with plenty of wonderful vantage points overlooking the Mediterranean Sea in the distance – one from its stylish infinity-edge pool that also features countryside panoramas. For a real treat, and maximum privacy, check in to the Pool Cottage, with a private plunge pool set in a secluded garden.
