Book One of the Most Instagrammable Hotels in Mallorca

Getting away from it all is the focus at this artfully minimalist hotel on a country estate outside Artà, but you’ll still want to sneak a quick snap for the ‘gram. Next to the Llevant nature reserve, the hotel’s 31 rooms are blissfully rustic with raw wool carpets, rough ceiling beams, billowing white chiffon and 50 shades of stone. The spa is virtually a destination in its own right, with organic treatments, a Turkish bath and meditation area, and exposed stone and woodwork for a soothing back-to-nature feel.

As if pretty Palma wasn’t photogenic enough, this boutique hotel where the Old Town meets Santa Catalina drastically raises the stakes. Housed in a former soap factory dating back to the mid-16th century, the hotel now has 31 rooms and suites, an outdoor pool designed for lounging and the in-demand Restaurant Xalest, where diners feast on locally sourced sharing plates and Mallorcan dishes under a vaulted stone roof.

Go straight for the shot of clear turquoise water at this beachfront hotel, where every light-filled suite has sea views to die for. You can even afford to enjoy a little more space on holiday, as there are airy apartments available with well-stocked kitchens if you fancy a little home cooking. Sounds like too much hard work? Head to the hotel’s own restaurant or beach club, where Mediterranean favourites and the freshest island produce are served with an ocean backdrop.

Nothing ruins a perfect pool shot like a toddler crying in the background. This ultra-chic hotel in the charming seaside village of Colònia de Sant Pere is entirely adults-only, so you won’t need to worry about stray swimming children. There are just 11 breezily beautiful rooms with snappable views across the water and mountains of the Llevant nature reserve, pristine white hammocks and daybeds in the rooftop chill-out zone, and a dining room stocked with drinks.

This 17th-century mansion in the historic centre of Santanyi is paradise for art and design lovers. There’s an extensive collection of specially curated paintings, sculptures and photographs around the hotel and a library stuffed with books and vinyl, while the building’s traditional Mallorcan architecture is an artwork in itself. Outside, Santanyi’s shops, galleries and boutiques are a stroll away, while the twice-weekly craft market is unmissable.

Foodies and health-conscious holiday-makers will love this boutique stone hotel in the old town of Maria de la Salut, hugely popular with passing cyclists. The menu focuses on dishes bursting with island produce and will guarantee you leave Mallorca on tip-top form. Think Buddha bowls bursting with homegrown veg, marinated watermelon salad with mint and feta, raw sugar-free energy balls and flavoured kombucha. Instafood never looked so good.

Raise your city break game by staying at this central hotel close to all Palma’s attractions. When you’ve discovered the cathedral, museums and shops, return to the hotel with its airy contemporary lobby, sun terrace, wellness centre and glossy, palm-tree lined pool area. Rooms are sleek, all-white retreats offering city views, direct pool access or even swim-up terraces perfect for posing.

A Mallorcan icon since the 1950s, this regal stone building is on the edge of Cala Mayor with breathtaking views over Palma Bay. Inside, rooms are just as dreamy with original stone walls, stripped wooden floors, original contemporary art and sleek glass touches. However, the infinity pool is the place to be (and photograph), gazing out to sea as the waves crash violently against the pool wall.

Set amongst olive groves and citrus trees, this stately hillside retreat is all about home goals. Rustic white walls and terracotta tiled floors display hand-woven rugs, antiques and over 750 works from local artists. Elsewhere, the hotel has its very own art gallery and sculpture walk, a romantic courtyard restaurant in a 17th-century olive mill and even resident donkeys. The most Insta-worthy suite is created by fashion designer Matthew Williamson and comes with a private pool, vintage pastel shades and a riot of clashing prints.

Sometimes only old-school luxe will do. Cap Rocat is located in a 19th-century fortress built to guard the bay of Palma and is now one of Mallorca’s most opulent addresses, thanks to its striking Moorish architecture, grand spa and impeccable rooms tucked under arched stone ceilings. From lantern-lit walkways to room service breakfasts delivered in wicker baskets and organic, artisan bathroom products in glass bottles, this impossibly beautiful hotel is made to be photographed.
