In a nutshell
- Mallorca is the perfect place to treat yourself to something truly special — here are our 11 favorite boutique hotels on the island.
- Every hotel on our list is handpicked and has something genuinely unique about it — from converted train stations to 13th-century fincas.
- Our best value pick is the Bella Colina — seriously cool vintage décor, handcrafted details, and just 3 minutes from the beach.
Hotel Bella Colina
Paguera
We included this hotel above all because we rarely come across boutique hotels in Mallorca that have been decorated with such attention to detail. The entire hotel is styled in a vintage aesthetic, and in every corner you’ll find unique, often handcrafted decorations.
The Bella Colina is located in the charming little town of Paguera and combines everything you could wish for in a location. Just behind Paguera lie several hills that are perfect for hiking through pine forests.
On the other hand, the Bella Colina is also just 3 minutes from the sea. By the way: thanks to shallow waters and on-site lifeguards, Paguera’s beaches are ideal if you’re traveling with children.
After a long day at the beach, you can treat yourself to a sundowner at the pool bar or curl up in a hammock in the garden with a book from the hotel’s own library.
Son Brull
Pollensa
Son Brull is a 5-star boutique hotel on the northern coast of Mallorca. From multiple pools and a large spa area, to a tennis court, a bike rental, and a gourmet restaurant — every amenity you could wish for is on offer here.
What we particularly love, though, is that Son Brull still doesn’t feel like one of the typical large luxury hotels. The building dates back to the 17th century and originally served as a monastery.
Throughout the hotel’s interior, modern design blends with elements of the original structure. Our personal interior highlight is the large windows that flood every room with light.
By car, the nearby town of Pollensa is just 5 minutes away — a picturesque little place where you can stroll around, grab a coffee, or relax on the beach.
Villa Station by Cassai
Ses Salines
A former train station has been transformed into a wonderful little oasis in the south of the island — the boutique hotel Villa Station.
All the rooms are individually decorated with charming, thoughtful details throughout.
The nearest restaurant isn’t far away, but if you’d rather cook for yourself, every room also comes with a small kitchenette.
Villa Station’s location in Ses Salines is ideal for beach lovers: the most beautiful beaches in the southern part of the island are right nearby, and you’ll be spoiled for choice as to which one to enjoy first.
Not in the mood for the beach? You can kick back by the small pool in Villa Station’s garden and let your cares drift away.
Hotel Mostatxins
Alcúdia
When you see the stylishly decorated rooms of this design hotel, it’s hard to believe the buildings date back to the 15th century and hold so much history. By the way: the name Mostatxins means mustache and refers to the beard of the butcher who once ran his business on the premises.
One special feature of this property: it is an adults-only hotel. So if you’re after peace and relaxation without children around, this is the place for you. The hotel also features a lovely wellness area and offers a variety of massages and beauty treatments.
The Mostatxins also stands out from the more rural properties on this list in terms of its location. It sits right in the heart of the old town of Alcudia, a historic little town in the north of Mallorca. Here you’ll find plenty of restaurants, charming alleyways to wander through, and several open-air events in summer.
La Goleta Hotel de Mar
Port de Pollensa
La Goleta is a family-run boutique hotel that has been around for over 50 years. Yet the hosts’ vision has always remained the same: to create a place where time simply stands still. In short — pure relaxation!
And in our opinion, you’ll definitely find that here — whether you’re in the rooftop pool with panoramic mountain views, having breakfast in the cozy café, or lying on the beach right in front of the hotel.
By the way: this is also an adults-only property, guaranteeing you a calm and relaxed atmosphere throughout your stay.
La Goleta has also specialized in cyclists — no surprise, since the area around Pollensa offers countless routes for every skill level. The hotel provides cycling-related services such as an on-site bike workshop and the option to arrange a shuttle service.
Hotel Sant Francesc
Palma
If we had to describe the Sant Francesc in three words, it would be design, design, and more design!
This 5-star property is housed in a 19th-century mansion and combines historic architecture with contemporary interiors like almost no other hotel on Mallorca. The entire interior is kept in understated tones, and throughout the building you’ll find artworks, designer pieces, frescoes, and light installations.
The hotel also offers a spa area, a pool, and a rooftop terrace, as well as two gourmet restaurants and a rooftop bar.
The Sant Francesc sits in the heart of Palma de Mallorca’s historic center, making it a perfect base for exploring Palma’s top attractions. If you enjoy a little urban buzz around you, this is exactly the right pick — the lanes of Palma and the surrounding shops are always full of life.

Finca Ca's Curial
Soller
Ca’s Curial offers a truly authentic Mallorcan stay. Set with views of the Serra de Tramuntana, this traditional 19th-century finca is a genuine haven of tranquility, far removed from mass tourism.
Ca’s Curial is particularly devoted to romantic getaways. Whether you’re stargazing beneath the orange trees or enjoying a candlelit dinner on the terrace, the Mediterranean ambiance is sure to set the mood!
Worth mentioning too: the hotel is also adults only, so you can enjoy your time together completely undisturbed.
During the day, you can relax by the pool, take trips into the surrounding mountains, or stroll through the small harbor town of Port de Soller, just a few minutes away by car.
Portals Hills
Portals Nous
Miami meets Mallorca is the motto of Portals Hills — and it shows. The entire hotel is done in white and gold, ultra-modern, and during the golden hour large floor-to-ceiling windows bathe the interior in a warm rosy glow.
Outside, an infinity pool, stylish cabanas, and a pool bar await you for the perfect sundowner. From here you also have a great view of the marina at Portals Nous with its sleek yachts.
The hotel also has a few rather exclusive extras — a small boutique for shopping, a dedicated wine and champagne bar, a lounge for evening entertainment, and a spa area.
In our opinion, Portals Hills is a great choice for younger guests who enjoy making a night of it, as well as for anyone who likes things a little more upscale and exclusive.
Sa Galera
Ca’s Concos
Sa Galera is a striking contrast to our number 8 — this 13th-century countryside hotel has a much more rustic and tranquil feel.
We’d especially recommend Sa Galera for a family vacation with kids. Here’s why.
The estate is wonderfully spacious and features expansive meadows with over 5,000 almond trees — which means plenty of room to run around and play. An extra highlight is the traditionally Mallorcan horses bred on the property. There’s also a pool for splashing around, of course.
The finca sits in a secluded rural location, so the neighbors won’t mind if things get a little noisy during playtime. And beyond that, the countryside setting is ideal for cycling trips and hiking — just rent a few bikes from the hotel.
Bikini Island & Mountain
Port de Sóller
Let the sunshine in — this saying from the hippie era of the ’60s is the motto of the Bikini Island & Mountain Hotel. And honestly, it’s a perfect fit.
This seaside hotel really stands out from the other unique hotels in Mallorca on our list, thanks to the flower-power vibe you feel throughout. The whole décor is playful, with lots of floral motifs and natural materials — a cool mix of creativity and laid-back naturalness.
For all the yogis out there: the Bikini Hotel offers free yoga classes, and when the weather is good, these take place on the terrace under the rising sun. During the day, you can truly unwind under the palm umbrellas at the pool bar with a cocktail.
Want to explore the area around the hotel? We highly recommend it. The surrounding countryside is wonderful for hiking, cycling, and trying various water sports. A side trip to the small harbor town of Port de Sóller with its charming alleyways is seriously worth it.

Es Molí
Deià
You want the authentic feel of a Mallorcan finca, but swimming options matter to you too? Then Es Molí in Deià might be just what you’re looking for.
Here you stay in a stylish 17th-century manor house — and the best part: Es Molí is only about 1 kilometer from the sea. The hotel also has its own small rocky cove, which a shuttle will take you to at your leisure.
Foodies are also in exactly the right place here: from breakfast by the pool to the tapas bar and a restaurant serving traditional regional dishes, you can treat yourself throughout the entire day. And maybe round things off with a nightcap in the lounge?
