Beach hotels in Majorca: The best locations for the perfect beach vacation

Palma de Mallorca: Majorca’s Cultural Capital

© Hotel Hostal Cuba Packed with ancient sites, lively bars, traditional Mallorcan eateries and world-class beach hotels, it’s small wonder that Palma de Mallorca is a hive of activity. Whether you wish to frequent the beaches or stroll around the old town, beach hotels in Majorca’s central city put you in the heart of the action. Some hotels even provide private beaches, 5-star facilities and oceanfront views. The kilometers of sand that make up Playa de Palma Beach is usually the first stop for sun seekers looking to catch some rays, while the clear water around Cala Major is perfect for swimming. However there’s more to Palma de Mallorca than its excellent beaches. The Bellver Castle looms over the city and provides panoramic views of the coast, while the impressive Palma Cathedral is a jewel on Palma’s skyline. One of the most intriguing sites on the island is Cuevas del Drach, located on the east coast near Porto Cristo. This cave system is open to the public and features a mystical underground lake.

Majorca and the Balearics

Explore Alcúdia Bay by booking a luxury hotel in Alcúdia itself, famous for its well-preserved old town and centuries-old architecture. The town sits in the center of the Victoria peninsula, stretching out into the glittering Mediterranean and flanked by beautiful beaches in three directions. Further north is Pollença, a traditional hamlet of local cafes and stone houses and the perfect base for exploring the dramatic Cap de Formentor – Majorca’s most northerly point. If you’ve had your fill of beach hotels in Majorca and are looking for somewhere a little more lively, cross the water from Palma de Mallorca to Ibiza, an island famous for its nightlife. A beach hotel in Ibiza means you can sun yourself on breathtaking beaches such as Cala d’Hort during the day and hit the bars of Ibiza Town and San Antonio come nightfall. Furthermore, the north of the island has a much more relaxed atmosphere, so you can pick and choose the kind of the vacation you want. The smallest island in the Balearics is Menorca, the understated little sister of Majorca and Ibiza. Here, life moves at a slower pace yet there is still plenty to enjoy with a beach hotel. Highlights of Menorca include miles of sandy coves, lively fiestas during summer and Monte Toro – Menorca’s spiritual heart.

Explore Further Spanish Islands

The seven volcanic islands which lie off the west coast of Africa are a magnet for families and couples seeking the perfect beach hotel.

Most beach hotels are located directly on the beach. If they are not, they are equipped with pools and are a less than 5-minute walk from a public beach. Some hotels provide views of the beach or coast; the Hotel Hospes Maricel & Spa, for example, has a prime location on a cliff overlooking the sea, but is consequently a 30-minute walk from the beach.

Son Sant Joan Airport is located just 8 kilometers from the capital, Palma. Take a cheap and quick taxi from the airport to your hotel in Palma. There are buses that run between the major towns, although renting a car is convenient especially if you plan to stay somewhere more secluded.

The Hotel Hospes Maricel & Spa provides free facials to all guests in the high season, in addition to romantic dinner packages. Love birds will also love the Royal Suite at the Hotel Nixe Palace.

The Hotel Nixe Palace has its own private beach, exclusively for the use of hotel guests.

On the northern coast of Majorca, expect to find quieter, unspoiled beaches, while on the southern coast, especially around Palma, the public beaches are perhaps busier but have more options, i.e. beachside bars and restaurants.

Beach hotels in Majorca can range anywhere from 70 EUR to 300 EUR. The cheaper options are often, but not always, apartment-style hotels with extra charges for things like beach chairs. The more expensive options, naturally, have more facilities like golf courses and spa centers. That said, you can also find 5-star beach hotels for under 100 EUR in less-central areas, i.e. not in Palma.

The Hotel OD Port Portals, and the Hotel Nixe Palace offer special rooms and services which accommodate the whole family.
