  1. Once you’ve enjoyed the comfort and space of a suite it’s very hard to go back to a standard hotel room.

    1. I know what your mean Jean…hard to put the genie back in the bottle…but I think we all need a treat at the moment…!

  2. A difficult choice to pick out one of these. I’d probably go for La Residencia as I’ve never been disappointed by the Belmond properties. Their service standards are impeccable.

  3. I can’t believe that I’ve never done Mallorca. Reading this I’m beginning to realise what I’ve missed out on.

    1. Wow Jim you need to get your suitcase down at the first opportunity! Presidents and pop stars and many many more have passed through Mallorca and now it’s your turn Jim. You will be smitten.

  4. This looks like another world, like pages from a fashion mag doing a holiday photo-shoot. It’s so long since I’ve travelled and had a holiday that I think I’ll have forgotten what to pack and forgotten how to relax on a sun-lounger. Dressing for dinner, if it ever happens, will be such a treat.

    1. Thanks for your kind comments Laura. As I was writing the blog I was dreaming. Seems crazy now when I look back at the airport scrums to get on board. All crushed together. I am sure you won’t have any problem relaxing. It’s like riding a bike ! We all just need to get back on the saddle.

    1. Tempting aren’t they. So lucky in Mallorca to have so may luxury hotels to choose from ! The bar has been set very high in recent years. All MallorcanTonic clients are happy with the selection I have made for the website! Time to start planning!

  5. At 115 square metres the Adriana suite is probably bigger than the first one bedroom flat that I bought. Got to say it looks really, really comfortable.

  6. Mallorca really does luxury well. The type of suites featured here is diverse in a way that some offers more luxe outside spaces while the others are more invested in the interior. Nonetheless, these are exceptional choices especially if you are fond of spending the day under the sun.

  7. Well said Andrew.
    Of the 60 or so luxury hotels in Mallorca we feature it really is so hard to compare.
    The standard has been set so high over the last decade that each hotel new to the market has to exceed it ! And we are the lucky recipients.

  8. We’re hoping to get to Mallorca late September once the edge has gone off the summer heat and when there’s less threat of air traffic disruption, sir traffic controllers’ strikes etc etc

    Really glad that I found all your posts on Mallorca. As we’ve never visited the island before they’ve helped us build up a picture of what the island has to offer and how we could enjoy it.

  9. It’s always about this time of year as the clocks are going back and the temperature is dropping that my mind starts turning to the Med to wring the last bit of warmth out of the year. Some very nice recommendations for hotel suites here.
