There are places where nature dictates the pace and luxury is subtle. At the end of Cap de Formentor, on Mallorca’s north coast, the Four Seasons Resort Mallorca unveils a preserved estate, bordered by pine trees and cliffs, where the sea merges with the horizon. Here, luxury is whispered in the light, the materials and the gestures. And above all, in well-being. We come here to breathe, recharge our batteries and reconnect with what’s essential : the beauty of the Mediterranean and well-being as an art of living.
Formentor, a landscape steeped in history
Formentor is first and foremost a story. In 1929, Argentine poet and patron Adán Diehl imagined a haven for artists and thinkers, a place where the raw beauty of the peninsula blended with creativity. The Hotel Formentor soon attracted the likes of Winston Churchill, Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly and Plácido Domingo.
Almost one hundred years later, the site is reborn under the Four Seasons banner. The historic soul has been preserved (original facades, Mediterranean modernism, strong links with culture), but enhanced by contemporary comfort. Nestled in a 486-hectare estate, classified as a nature reserve in the UNESCO Serra de Tramuntana, the hotel is surrounded by secret coves, limestone cliffs and majestic pine forests.
It’s just over an hour’s drive from Palma, along a winding road offering some of the island’s finest views, to the Formentor lighthouse that stands watch over this legendary headland.
Rooms bathed in light, suites open onto the horizon
The resort boasts 110 keys (79 rooms and 31 suites), all bathed in Mediterranean light. The architecture and decor are elegantly restrained. Local stone, travertine, light wood and natural textiles are used throughout.
The sea-view rooms feature large bay windows opening onto terraces where the horizon merges with the blue. The Garden Rooms are anchored in the vegetation, some with a small private pool. The suites, meanwhile, offer generous spaces, shaded terraces or infinity pools for a timeless stay.
Every detail is designed to make the experience as seamless as possible: top-of-the-range bedding, bright bathrooms, interiors and exteriors in constant dialogue.
Wellness, the island’s natural breathing space
More than a spa, it’s a true sensory interlude, shaped by the island’s elements. The scent of pine trees, the minerality of rocks, the softness of the sea. The approach combines modern facilities, rituals inspired by Majorcan nature and exclusive programs.
Facilities to unwind and revitalize
The Four Seasons spa is an ode to the elements. Sauna, steam room, ice fountain, cold pool and vitality pool create a complete spa experience. Add to this a modern fitness center, yoga studio, outdoor classes and three pools: family, adults-only and a spa vitality pool. Private waterside cabanas offer an intimate interlude in the Mallorcan sunshine.
Signature treatments
- Tramuntana Energy: massages inspired by the nearby mountain, designed to soothe the body and release inner vitality.
- Among the pines and rocks: body rituals with rich textures and Mediterranean scents, combining ancestral techniques and innovation.
- La Llum – Facial Collection: exclusive Biologique Recherche facial treatments, highly personalized to sublimate skin, smooth features and illuminate the complexion.
Exclusive experiences
The spa regularly offers original collaborations. These include outdoor Barre Body masterclasses, sensory immersions combining sound baths and meditation, and wellness reset programs led by guest experts. These interludes, limited in number of participants, offer the opportunity to deepen the experience of body and mind in an exceptional setting.
When nature becomes the first therapist
Beyond the walls, the island is an ally. Yoga sessions facing the sea, meditations at sunrise, mindful walks in the pine forest, invigorating swims in the turquoise waters. Every moment is a way to connect with nature and catch your breath.
The art of the table at Four Seasons Mallorca
The table extends this philosophy, placing the ingredient at the center.
- Mel emphasizes Mediterranean flavors and a farm-to-table approach, celebrating Mallorca’s seasonal produce.
- Shima explores Nikkei fusion, combining Japanese and Peruvian influences for an inventive culinary experience.
- Llum i Sal, right on the beach, invites you to enjoy fish and seafood with your feet almost in the sand.
- Quiosc, the casual elegance of the poolside, where you can enjoy cocktails and light dishes by the water in a chic yet relaxed atmosphere.
- Cercle, the heart of the hall, is a luminous bar designed as a meeting place, where you can enjoy a drink in a friendly, sophisticated atmosphere.
Each restaurant interacts with its surroundings. Panoramic views, open terraces, sincere and refined cuisine. Even breakfast is experienced as a ritual, facing the changing light of the sea.
Between golden beaches and marine adventures
The resort opens directly onto Formentor beach, a kilometer of golden sand shaded by pine trees. Awarded the Blue Flag for its environmental quality, the beach offers deckchairs and Four Seasons service. Its turquoise waters are ideal for snorkeling , kayaking and paddle boarding. And to extend your escape, Cap de Formentor can also be discovered by sea. Aboard a yacht or sailboat, you can sail between limestone cliffs and secret coves, observe seabirds and steep relief, before stopping for a chic picnic with your feet in the sand.
Nature as a playground
Beyond the beach, the estate’s 486 hectares invite you to explore. Hiking in the Serra de Tramuntana, spectacular roads for cyclists, discovery of the Formentor lighthouse, family excursions to caves and underground lakes… everything here encourages movement and wonder. Finally, children are not forgotten thanks to nature activities, marine exploration, snorkeling and boat excursions. The Four Seasons offers experiences that bring generations together to discover Mallorca.
At Formentor, history, nature and luxury meet. The Four Seasons Resort Mallorca is not just an address, it’s a state of mind, a different way of experiencing the Mediterranean. Between memory and modernity, serenity and vitality, it restores this mythical cape to its rightful place in the imagination of travellers in search of beauty and well-being.
