The leisurely, Mediterranean luxury of La Residencia, a Belmond Hotel.

Discovering… the history and splendor of the iconic La Residencia, a Belmond Hotel.

Nestled between the charming village of Deià, the majestic Sierra de Tramuntana mountains, and the sparkling blue Mediterranean, La Residencia, a Belmond Hotel, is much more than a hotel: it is an emblem of Mallorca’s history and soul. An invitation to enjoy authentic Mediterranean life, where unhurried luxury intertwines with history, art, and nature.

That is exactly what it feels like to explore this magnificent estate. It’s not an overwhelming splendor, but one that envelops you with warmth, inviting you to discover and enjoy it at your own pace. Here, intimacy, elegance, and good taste combine to achieve a level of excellence that is hard to match.

A hotel full of history and character

With 14 hectares of pure Mediterranean beauty, La Residencia preserves the historical essence of Mallorca. Its two main buildings, Son Moragues and Son Canals, are majestic 16th-century manor houses that include a 14th-century tower, silent witnesses to the passage of time.

The estate also houses Son Fony, with charming views of the pool, and the Tramuntana Suites, located on a hilltop. From there, panoramic views of the Mallorcan landscape and a feeling of absolute privacy create an experience that transcends expectations.

Each room, suite, and villa has its own personality, carefully designed and decorated in a style that reflects the serenity of the island. It’s a luxury that doesn’t boast, but rather invites relaxation and disconnection, surrounding you with thoughtful details to make every stay unforgettable.

Commitment to Sustainability and environmental conservation

La Residencia not only honors history but also looks to the future with a strong commitment to sustainability. The rooms feature natural products and reusable packaging, and the hotel has created its own fragrance, "The essence of La Residencia," a delicate blend of aromas inspired by the plants that grow on the estate. This exclusive scent envelops the senses, leaving an indelible mark on the memory of those who visit.

Furthermore, the property's centuries-old olive groves have been given new life thanks to an innovative olive tree sponsorship system. This initiative, along with the production of an exquisite extra virgin olive oil with a designation of origin, its organic garden, and its local olive leaf infusion, demonstrates that luxury can coexist in perfect harmony with respect for the environment.

Walls full of art

La Residencia is also a haven for art. More than 800 works adorn its spaces, making the hotel a living gallery. Among its greatest treasures are:

• Sa Tafona, a gallery that hosts temporary exhibitions by international artists, organized by British artist and collector Cecilie Sheridan and her daughters. In addition, they offer routes and talks through the homes/studios of some of the village's artists to explain their rich history.

• An impressive sculpture garden, one of the largest in Europe.

• The 33 original works by Joan Miró that decorate the Miró Restaurant, turning every meal into an artistic experience. 

The “Artists in Residencia” program reinforces this link with art. Each year, three international artists are selected to live and work at the hotel, creating pieces that integrate into the unique atmosphere of the place. It is a tangible connection between contemporary creativity and the historical essence of La Residencia.

Creative and local gastronomy: one of the pillars of the project

Gastronomy plays a central role in the La Residencia experience. Its three restaurants are a tribute to Mediterranean flavors and culinary art:

• El Olivo, a restaurant located in a 17th-century olive mill, offers elegant dinners in a dreamlike setting with views of the village of Deià.
• Tramuntana Grill, located by the pool, is perfect for enjoying a relaxed and sophisticated atmosphere, ideal for both lunch and dinner.
• Restaurante Miró, where art and cuisine merge in a unique space that, at sunset, fills with live music, creating an unforgettable moment.

Experiences to immerse yourself in Mallorcan life 

The magic of La Residencia doesn't end in its rooms or restaurants. The hotel offers its own activities designed to connect with the essence and tradition of Mallorca:

• Art and sculpture classes with resident artist, Juan Waelder, a perfect experience to unleash creativity.
• Yoga sessions at El Mirador, with inspiring and revitalizing views.
• Hiking trails and excursions through the Sierra de Tramuntana mountains.
• Sailing trips to enjoy the sunset, where the Mediterranean horizon is tinged with gold and rose. 
• Petanque classes, a nod to local tradition, in a relaxed and fun atmosphere.

The hotel's award-winning spa completes this offering with a total relaxation experience: a heated pool, sauna, jacuzzi, and exclusive treatments that make every visit an oasis for the senses. What more could we ask for? 

A discreet luxury that transcends

La Residencia embodies authentic luxury, the kind found in small details and in the connection with the surroundings. Every corner of this estate breathes history, art, and a deep love for Mediterranean life. It is a place where time seems to stand still, allowing you to enjoy an intimacy, beauty, and elegance that are hard to find elsewhere.
