About
Belmond La Residencia, a storied escape, sits in Deià, Mallorca's art-centric mountain village. You'll find it on the northwest coast, right in the UNESCO-protected Serra de Tramuntana mountains. The hotel combines two meticulously restored sixteenth-century manor houses. They're tucked into terraces, surrounded by old olive trees, citrus groves, and fragrant gardens that tumble down the mountainside, all the way to the Mediterranean.
Sixty-nine rooms and suites mix rough-hewn Mallorcan stone and timber with sleek, modern furniture. Many come with private terraces looking out over the Tramuntana peaks and the distant sea. For dinner, El Olivo, recognized by Michelin, serves Mediterranean dishes inside a converted medieval olive press. Café Miró, on the other hand, offers lighter bites poolside.
Walk around and you'll notice the hotel boasts one of Europe's largest private sculpture collections – over 800 pieces scattered across the gardens and through the interiors. Two outdoor pools, a tennis court, and a full-service spa round out the amenities.
Deià has been drawing artists and writers since Robert Graves made it home in the 1930s. The village still feels unhurried, distinctly creative. Belmond La Residencia really gets Mallorca – its particular light, the dramatic landscapes, and those centuries of Mediterranean culture. You can feel it in the air, especially when the evening breeze carries the scent of jasmine.
