The Balearic hotspot Mallorca, is undoubtedly a people-pleaser and an island with something for everyone. It’s full of fabulous resorts between towering mountains, sandy beaches with clean safe waters, and superb facilities and services focused on keeping your children entertained. Whether you’re after an ‘all inclusive’ with beachfront access, a 9-til-5 kids club, or a good selection of attractions nearby, Mallorca has it all… not to mention their ideal climate of sun-soaked summers, a steady sea breeze and rarely a cloud in the sky. The friendly Mallorquins will gladly embrace your little ones with open arms, thanks to their wonderfully family focused culture.

There’s a real variety of holiday accommodation catering specifically for families with children. Several of the larger, tourist focused resorts offer itinerary-packed days with fun-filled activities from breakfast through until dinner; but there’s also a great selection of quieter, family-run retreats with bespoke itineraries and programmes offering plenty of help with recommendations of nearby things to do.

Here's our top suggestions on where to take your family this year.

Best Family Friendly Spots

Jumeirah Mallorca Swimming Pool

Jumeirah Mallorca

Location
Port de Soller

Nestled on the edge of the sea on the north-west coast of Mallorca, the Jumeirah offers spectacular views of the Mediterranean Sea and the Tramuntana mountains.

Designed in traditional Mallorcan style, the hotel building uses local materials such as natural wood and rock to blend in beautifully with the coastal setting. The 18,000 sqm resort incorporates orange, lemon and olive trees into its landscape, features tall grass on the rooftops and curves into the natural coastline - resulting in a luxury hotel that works in harmony with nature. 

The highlight is undoubtedly the Tramuntana Terrace, renowned as Mallorca's top panoramic view terrace, providing breathtaking vistas that perfectly compliment any celebration. The staff here are well-versed in creating the most spectacular events, and whether you are planning an intimate wedding or a large-scale event, every detail is carefully designed to honour both this awe-inspiring setting and your individual desires.
