Gran Folies Beach Club

Stylish seaside retreat with panoramic views and refined Mediterranean dining

Location
Port d'Andratx

Gran Folies Beach Club is one of Mallorca’s most iconic and exclusive seaside escapes, perched on a rocky slope above the crystal-clear turquoise waters of Cala Llamp, near Port Andratx. With the Mediterranean quite literally at its feet, this elegant beach club blends natural beauty with a relaxed yet refined atmosphere, making it an exceptional place to spend a full summer day by the sea.

The club is thoughtfully laid out with several areas to suit your mood, including a main restaurant, bistro, VIP spaces, cocktail bar, swimming pool and sun loungers nestled among the rocks. Wherever you choose to settle, uninterrupted sea views stretch across the bay towards the dramatic cliffs of the Tramuntana mountains, creating a sense of privacy that’s hard to find elsewhere on the island.

In the kitchen, chef Alex Arquero leads a curated dining experience that combines Mediterranean flavours with international influences. The menu features everything from fresh fish and seafood to paellas, pizzas, salads and refined tapas, all prepared with high-quality ingredients and served in a truly privileged setting.

Whether you’re looking to unwind, celebrate a special occasion or simply enjoy waterside dining in one of Mallorca’s most beautiful locations, Gran Folies delivers an unforgettable coastal experience.
