Additional Notes From Ash

I definitely wanted to stay at this hotel, as it's just so inviting. It seems like a typical boutique property from its entrance, but the interiors charm you from the start. The restaurant was alive for breakfast, with guests stretching out on the garden terrace or nestled along the stone bar. The covered patio felt like stepping back in time, but the rooms with private terraces and pools sealed the deal and made the hotel a quick favorite. 

Authenticity

The property is a historical manor house dating to the 19th century and maintains many original elements, including flooring, windows, ceilings, and gardens. The spa is a unique treat with its many authentic health rituals used on the island for decades. 

Location

Enjoy a luxury stay in the heart of Mahón, along a quiet street just a few minutes' walk from the central square and city markets. Less than 10 minutes takes you to the buzzy Port of Mahón, where you'll find lots of activities and the ferry terminal. The airport and nearby spots like the scenic beach near Sa Mesquida, coves, and archeological sites are all within a 20-minute drive. 

Rooms & Bathrooms

Sleep well in large, cozy rooms with warm and inviting interiors, plus desks, air conditioning, and mini-fridges. Many feature fireplaces and original elements like tiled floors and/or beamed ceilings, and some offer perks like in-room soaking tubs and private, furnished terraces. The Deluxe Suites are particularly spacious and offer balconies with sun beds, private plunge pools, and separate showers and bathtubs. 

Amenities

Relax at the hotel's ILLA Spa, which uses natural products and elements to mimic the serenity of Menorca. Heat, water, and native stones all come together to provide a wellness experience through body treatments, water circuits, massages, and traditional rituals. You’ll also find a small gym with cardio machines, stationary bikes, and weights. If you want a cozy hideaway, then head over to the lounge with its library and fireplace to relax when the evenings get cooler. You’ll also find an honesty bar and a piano to tinkle on. One of the hotel’s buildings has been adapted to accommodate wheelchair users, and you’ll also find an elevator going to all upper floors. 

Family-Friendliness

This hotel is adults-only, so if you’re traveling with kids under 18, this is not a suitable option for you. 

Other Highlights

The on-site restaurant serves breakfast, brunch, and candlelight dinners on the garden terrace and courtyard filled with orange trees. Locally sourced Menorcan ingredients feature heavily on the menu.
