Hotel Barceló Formentor

Top choice in Northern Mallorca

Ever since this smart hotel first flung open its doors in 1929, Hotel Formentor has been a Mallorca classic. The beachfront digs have played host to the likes of Grace Kelly, Winston Churchill, Mikhail Gorbachev, John Wayne and the Dalai Lama. Rooms are pleasing without being the latest in grand luxury, and the seaside doubles and suites are a taste of paradise.

Tennis courts, pools and flowery garden walkways aside, the hotel is so popular because of its location – it has the fabulous Formentor beach all to itself.
