What it’s good at
Notable
Local stonework and reclaimed Mallorcan tiles shape the mid-century coastal interiors.
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
The natural coastline setting of Aethos Mallorca has informed the hotel's soothing and stylish interiors, which blend muted neutural shades with cool mid-century influences and views across the mountains and Balearic Sea.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Platja Palmira sits just down the cliff path, and walking trails trace the coast toward quiet Cala Fornells.
The rooms
Most bedrooms face the Mediterranean, and Cliff Rooms add open-air soaking tubs out on the balcony.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated cliffside pool reaches toward the open bay, lined with timber loungers and pale pink parasols.
The baths
Curved heated loungers rest beside bubbling hydrotherapy pools, and a swan-neck waterfall cascades into the warm water.
The spa and gym
The 24-hour gym looks across the sea through arched windows. Quiet treatment rooms host tailor-made massages and body rituals.
Restaurant
ONDA
Tables sit under timber pergolas above turquoise water, serving Mediterranean seafood and Nikkei dishes from lunch through dinner.
At the table
Raig Rooftop serves evening cocktails and Nikkei snacks over vinyl records, looking straight out across the coastline.
How it began
The building originally opened in 1958 as Hotel Mar y Pins before a local mother-daughter design duo revived it.
