With its palm-tree lined pool, white low-slung buildings and turquoise accents, Mar Senses in Puerto de Pollensa is an adults-only hotel in Mallorca with a distinctly glamorous air. Think a white baby grand piano in the bar, massaging waterfall features in the pool, a terrace cocktail bar and a gloriously peaceful spa with a Finnish sauna and Turkish bath. The sumptuous buffet restaurant is just as impressive, with its show-cooking areas, stations of local produce and a dessert bar to die for.
