Aethos Hotel
Set dramatically on the cliffs of Cala Fornells, Aethos Mallorca is the brand’s first Spanish opening and a striking blend of design, wellbeing and sea views. Architecture studio Ballesteros Drusetta drew inspiration from the island’s natural palette—olive green, almond blossom pink, terracotta and local stone—using ecological materials and artisan details to create a refined, grounded aesthetic. The 61 rooms and suites include four with outdoor bathtubs and the panoramic Tower Suite. With ONDA restaurant, rooftop listening bar, infinity pool, spa and holistic wellness zone, Aethos Mallorca offers a retreat where tradition, sustainability and contemporary elegance live side by side.

Frontón Sineu
At the centre of Sineu, the historic frontón courts have been given a second life, balancing heritage with contemporary design. The 2025 renovation introduced a terrace and bar-restaurant finished with handcrafted Huguet tiles, a detail that anchors the project in Mallorcan tradition. Alongside its role as a venue for sport and culture, Frontón serves food with a contemporary twist—Mediterranean in spirit yet enriched with global influences, from Asian accents to Middle Eastern touches. Together, the design, cuisine and setting transform this landmark into a vibrant meeting place where history, creativity and conviviality flow seamlessly under Mallorcan skies.

The 22 rooms and suites feature bespoke furnishings, artisanal textiles and private gardens or plunge pools. Landscaped with vineyards and olive groves, the estate also offers serene wellness spaces and a culinary programme inspired by memory and zero-kilometre sourcing.

L'Osteria
Mallorca’s first L’Osteria brings the lively spirit of Italy to Marratxí, just minutes from Palma.
