What it is

A storybook 32 room retreat within a garden-flanked 17th-century estate, with an immaculate spa, topnotch indoor/outdoor restaurant and daybed-lined outdoor pool.

What it isn't

Artless. Guests are charmed to find a curated library as well as artworks by everyone from Miró to Bárbara Vidal adorning the spaces.

What we think

Those that seek century-old history with modern sumptuousness will find a heavenly stay at Can Ferrereta, the pride of the aptly named Majestic Hotel Group. That’s because even the “starting” room category here, Deluxe, feels like a suite worthy of Mallorca regulars like Gwyneth Paltrow and Kate Moss. The 376 square foot space is adorned with exposed ceiling beams, a serene color palette of grays and cloud whites, a stone-lined bathroom, Egyptian-cotton sheets, toiletries by Paris-based brand Heeley, a curated local minibar, Nespresso machine, and so much more. Honeymooners (or those simply looking to feel like one) should consider the cinematic 484 square foot Terrace Suite for its canopied bed, deep soaking tub and arched French doors that lead out to a private garden.

You're here because

The stone-walled spa has its own indoor heated pool, gleaming hammam, sauna, and treatments such as a white sand body scrub and seaweed wrap.

The Moment

After a refreshing dip in the clean-lined outdoor pool, you beeline for the pool bar….where elderflower and cava cocktails and acorn-fed Iberian ham awaits. How do you say “bliss” in Castilian?
