Top rural retreats in Mallorca

Relax and recharge at some of the best finca hotels

featured in News & reviews Author Jose Rains, Mallorca Reporter Updated

Mallorca is a paradise for those seeking a break from the stresses of city living. Either surrounded by orange groves, overlooking valleys, or built along pine covered coastlines, the island's many lovingly restored farmhouses invite you to pause and take stock.

Whatever corner of the island you're drawn towards, there's a rural idyll where you can reconnect with nature and restore depleted energy levels.

Es Quatre Cantons Agroturismo Hotel, Binissalem exterior

Unwind with Wine in Central Mallorca - Es Quatre Cantons Agroturismo Hotel

With its cats, dogs, chickens, horses and even an ostrich, Es Quatre Cantons Agroturismo Hotel might just fit your idea of a rural escape. Care for the environment is a priority and they use solar energy, residual water in their garden and organic products in both the bathrooms and on their menu. The beautifully restored 19th century finca has 14 rooms, including four suites, with plenty of space for families. It is located just 2.6km away from the historic town centre of Binissalem, which is the centre of wine production in Mallorca. We recommend sampling the local wines at nearby wineries, such as Celler Albaflor, Vins Nadal or Jose Ferrer. Cycling, hiking and horse riding are all possibilities from here.

Wellbeing in the West - C'an Verdera Hotel

"All that a poet or a painter might dream of, nature has created here..." The words of writer, George Sands, may resonate with you while you're enjoying the view from your garden facing balcony at C'an Verdera Hotel. This 11 room boutique hotel is located on the slopes of the Serra de Tramuntana in the village of Fornalutx, which is claimed by many as the prettiest village in Spain. It is perfect for all those who want to immerse themselves in nature without forgoing the luxuries expected of a top hotel. Beauty treatments, massages to knead out those knots and yoga to stimulate you, are just some of the ways to make the most of your stay here. Lovers of the great outdoors have a good choice of walks, from gentle paths to high altitude hikes. An excursion to Lluc monastery is highly recommended. The stylish Garden Lounge is the perfect place to end each day, as you can sit back and enjoy orange blossom beer, freshly brewed in Soller.

Ca's Xorc Restaurant Review, near Soller

Natural tastes in the West - Ca's Xorc Luxury Retreat

Within the walls of a two-century old house Ca's Xorc Luxury Retreat resides, where you will be met with breathtaking views, gourmet cuisine and a relaxing environment. This is the ideal spot for a peaceful stay, whilst remaining within close proximity to the treasures of the Sierra de Tramuntana and the popular amenities within Soller and Port de Soller. This boutique hotel has an emphasis on connecting with the natural beauty and tastes of the land, with its own vegetable garden being incorporated into the menu.

Each room has been styled with a blend of traditional Majorcan architecture and decorative elements from Morocco, and the beautifully maintained terraces offer some of the best places to sit and watch the sun go down on the island.

Walkers, cyclists and foodies will be very happy in this heavenly place.

A wholesome experience in the East - Agroturisme Na Martina

Agroturisme Na Martina is a family run establishment within a restored finca on the edge of Mallorca’s Mondrago Nature Reserve.
