This picture-perfect estate pairs a tranquil countryside location with a boho-luxe design, but its crowning glory is the spa, which is built around the only thermal springs in the Balearic Islands. There's also a handy shuttle service to one of Mallorca's finest beaches.
This five-star boutique retreat is surrounded by protected natural parkland in Mallorca’s south-east. It's peaceful and secluded but is close to Es Trenc – one of the island’s best beaches – and surrounded by a network of walking and cycling trails. The estate itself is charming and authentic, with stone walls, green shutters and sun-washed terraces that open onto gardens filled with palms and olive trees.
The star turn is the retreat’s spa, built around the only natural thermal springs in the Balearics, which bubble up at a toasty 38 degrees and are rich in minerals. Guests can unwind in various relaxation and bathing areas, including individual stone baths, a heated pool, whirlpool, sauna and steam room.
Elsewhere, you’ll find two outdoor pools tucked among the landscaped grounds, plus space for morning yoga sessions. The on-site restaurant, meanwhile, is the place to savour seasonal Mediterranean fare.
Just so you know, Fontsanta Hotel is adults only.
The name Fontsanta comes from the Roman ‘Font Santa’, meaning holy fountain – a nod to the thermal waters that rise naturally from underground at 38 degrees. Rich in minerals, including sodium and chlorine, the water is distinctly salty, with traces of magnesium, calcium, sulphur, fluorine and potassium. Long valued for their restorative properties, these waters are known to support circulation, ease muscular tension and help soothe both skin and respiratory concerns.
The spa is made up of a series of calming spaces. The Bathing Area centres around a thermal pool with underwater jets, alongside a Finnish sauna and steam room. In the Tonification Area, you’ll find an ice fountain, bucket shower and a sensation shower. There’s also a quiet room for relaxation, as well as a more secluded space with water beds. You'll spot thoughtful extras throughout, too – like fresh and dried fruit and infused water.
For movement, there’s a light-filled yoga studio and a compact gym with all the essentials, including cardio machines, free weights and space for stretching or Pilates.
There are 37 rooms in total, spread across three buildings, with a range of categories to suit different tastes and budgets. For added space and privacy, there’s the option to stay in a villa with its own private pool.
Design-wise, expect a mix of traditional and contemporary, with natural wood floors and soft neutral tones. Each room opens onto a terrace or courtyard.
Fontsanta Hotel sits in the peaceful south-east of Mallorca, surrounded by natural parkland and just three kilometres from Es Trenc – one of the island’s best beaches, known for its long, unspoilt stretches of sand and clear, turquoise water. A shuttle service makes getting there easy.
Pretty Colònia de Sant Jordi – a favourite summer spot for Mallorcan families – is just a short drive away, while the Es Salobrar de Campos nature reserve lies within easy reach for quiet walks through protected wetlands. Further afield, you can explore the Mondragó Natural Park in around 30 minutes, or head out to the Cabrera National Park, a small protected archipelago and marine reserve reached by boat from the south coast.
The surrounding landscape is also ideal for cycling, hiking and birdwatching.
Palma de Mallorca Airport is around 40 minutes’ drive away.
