BELMOND LA RESIDENCIA: WORLD-CLASS STYLE IN RURAL MALLORCA
This chic island resort has two 17th-century stone manor
houses are its heart, blending effortlessly into its rural location,
overlooking the delightful village of Deià, sheltered by the Tramuntana
mountains. Part of the global Belmond group, this luxury boutique property has
a strong sense of place; celebrating its Mallorcan heritage and provenance.
Belmond La Residencia lived up to its reputation as a luxury
hideaway, thanks to elegant, boutique-style accommodation; award-winning
cuisine by Executive Chef Guillermo; and assured privacy and tranquility on Spain’s
largest island, the Balearic gem of Mallorca.
Location
The property is just a five-minute walk to the village's
chic boutiques, cafés, and restaurants while pretty Cala Deia with its pebbled
beach and renowned Cas Patro March restaurant can be reached in 10 minutes by
car. The nearby monastery of Valldemossa made famous by composer Frederic
Chopin is six miles (10 km) away likewise Soller with its museums and
botanical gardens. It takes about 20 minutes by taxi to reach the sandy beaches
of Port Soller. Palma airport is approximately 22 miles (35 km) distance from
the hotel.
Style and Character
The hotel, originally two renovated 16th-century rustic properties, has grown over the years and is now a delightful – at times challenging – labyrinth of stone paths and steps that cut through 35 acres of lush and mature gardens of cypresses and olive trees to a peaceful pool zone. New plush rooms and suites with panoramic views of the mountains and village have been created on the hillside adjacent to the main building. Despite its grandeur and polish, this is a hotel with a homely, inviting, and warm ambiance. It's no surprise that its devotees return again and again.
Rooms
The estate’s 72 beautifully appointed rooms and suites have
each been individually decorated and include a private villa. Most stays come
with terrace or garden spaces, while others have private pools. The Designer
Suite by Matthew Williamson offers a further surprise.
