Checking In: Four Seasons Mallorca Formentor

MALLORCA, BALEARIC ISLANDS

Four Seasons Mallorca Formentor

Amidst a sprawling private estate featuring meticulously restored gardens, seaside woodlands, rugged cliffs, and hidden beaches, a former retreat for the elite has transformed into a sustainable and soulful luxury holiday destination while maintaining its chic allure.


Location

Mallorca, the largest of the Mediterranean's Balearic Islands, lies just off Spain's east coast. The Four Seasons is located at the island's northernmost point on the Cap de Formentor peninsula. Nestled on Formentor Beach, shaded by towering pines, this 1-kilometer stretch of golden sand is a pristine jewel—designated a Blue Flag beach for its high environmental standards. Enjoy the crystal-clear turquoise waters with peaceful, non-motorised water sports like snorkelling, kayaking, and stand-up paddle boarding.

Rooms

All 110 guest rooms and suites feature sea-facing terraces, with some also offering private plunge pools. The décor in both private and public areas is bright and airy, using natural materials throughout to evoke a seaside glamour that is both nostalgic and modern.

Dining

The culinary experience at Four Seasons Resort Mallorca at Formentor starts with a variety of on-site dining options led by Executive Chef Francesco Mannelli. Mel offers a fresh Mediterranean menu sourced from farm and sea for both breakfast and dinner. Quiosc, an open kitchen and terrace shaded by pines near one of the resort pools, provides a relaxing dining spot. Down on the beach, Xiringuito serves refreshing drinks and light snacks. In the evening, guests gather at the round bar at Cercle, where expert bartenders create inventive cocktails and pour from the resort’s exquisite wine list. Wine enthusiasts will enjoy discovering the grapes and meeting the growers at the winery located within the private estate of the resort.

Wellness

The resort’s beautiful setting within a coastal woodland lends itself to the Japanese art of Shinrin-yoku, or forest bathing—the practice of immersing in natural sights, sounds, scents and textures under the guidance of a mindfulness expert. Or, sign up for an oil painting workshop led by a local artist and capture the beauty of the surrounding landscape for a unique memento of one’s visit to Mallorca.

Fitness buffs will find plenty of choice for an active vacation, including a state-of-the-art gym on site.
