Also in The 50 Discovery and AFAR.
Set in a restored 17th-century mansion, the luxury hotel exudes rustic elegance with its stone walls and grand, vine-covered façade.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Puigpunyent sits just downhill beneath the peak of Puig de Galatzó, and Palma is a thirty-minute drive away.
The rooms
Rooms have carved timber ceilings and canopied beds, and many open onto stone terraces over the valley.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A thirty-metre freshwater pool borders the mountain terrace. Inside, red arches span a heated sea-salt basin.
The spa and gym
Treatment rooms use remedies from Seed to Skin Tuscany, and the arched gym looks onto the mountains.
At the table
Mar & Duix cooks with garden produce inside the vaulted olive press, and Green Bar pours estate Malvasía beside the hearth.
Outside, this is a classic Mallorcan finca in vine-strewn pinkish terracotta, with classical Mediterranean gardens around the terrace and pool overlooking Puigpunyent.
How it began

The noble Net family built the estate in 1672, and a protected five-hundred-year-old cypress still stands on the grounds.
“To stay in this freshly refurbished 31-room mansion is to time travel—through a baroque world of gold-flecked tapestries, stone archways, and portraits of royalty.”
