Hotel De Mar, a Gran Meliá Hotel, is an adults-only seafront retreat among the pines at Illetas, a short drive from Palma on Mallorca's southwest coast. An icon of 1960s Mallorcan design, it was reborn as a contemporary luxury hotel while keeping its mid-century spirit and its enviable position over a rocky cove.
The dining is a highlight. ARRELS by Marga Coll serves traditional Majorcan cuisine from fresh market produce, from a five-stage breakfast to a seven-course tasting menu by the sea; the Riva Lounge handles all-day Mediterranean dining; Bombon by Alberta Ferretti is an exclusive designer pool club; and entre MAR anchors breakfast among the pines.
For an adults-only, design-led Mallorca stay near Palma, Hotel De Mar is a standout.
