A welcome addition to the luxury hotel scene in Mallorca, Cap Rocat is a new five star boutique hotel situated on a private peninsula in the south-eastern corner of the Bay of Palma. Cap Rocat was once a former 19th century military fortress that was built to withstand possible onslaught from American troops during the Spanish-American war.

Some military touches remain in this sympathetically refurbished retreat – entrance via the drawbridge, and bedrooms in the military quarters and shooting pads. Two restaurants serving Mediterranean cuisine, an infinity pool, direct access to the sea, free wifi throughout, plus all mod-cons in the rooms brings this old fortress bang up to date.

Created by Antonio Obrador and managed by MHM, Cap Rocat hopes to set a benchmark in eco-tourism. All the original architecture has been preserved, and the restaurants use locally sourced produce. With only 24 rooms (and a no children under 15 policy), Cap Rocat promises to provide a very special and exclusive experience. For more information, send Cap Rocat an email.
