Hotels in the Serra de Tramuntana: The best accommodation options

If you’re looking for hotels in the Serra de Tramuntana, there are three areas worth considering: Puerto Pollensa, Cala San Vicente and Deiá. Although they’re all within the same mountain range, the atmosphere varies considerably from one place to another. You can find hotels near the sea, accommodation designed for enjoying nature, or quieter spots where you can simply unwind and take in the scenery. 

At Hoposa Hotels, there are various options depending on the sort of trip you have in mind. From historic hotels and adults-only accommodation to establishments catering for cyclists, family-friendly options and small hotels where you can enjoy a more peaceful stay.

In this guide, we’ll take a look at what you can find in each area and which hotel might suit you best, depending on what you’re looking for on your trip to Mallorca. 

The Serra de Tramuntana is one of the best-known areas of Mallorca and also a great option for those who want to explore the island beyond its beaches. Along the mountain range you’ll find stone villages, roads with sea views, trails for walking or cycling, and little spots dotted along the coast. 

Staying in this area allows you to organise a wide variety of activities without having to travel very far. You can visit Pollensa, stroll through Deiá or Valldemossa, stop at some of the Serra’s viewpoints, go for a walk and round off the day at a seaside restaurant. 

And the area you choose to stay in also has a big impact on your trip. Puerto Pollensa, for example, has the bay and the seafront promenade right on its doorstep; Cala San Vicente is a smaller, quieter alternative, whilst Deiá offers a completely different setting, surrounded by the mountains. 

That’s why, at Hoposa, you’ll find accommodation in different parts of the area, each offering a unique perspective on the Serra de Tramuntana.

Puerto Pollensa is a more convenient place to stay if you want to explore the Serra de Tramuntana. From here, you can easily reach some of Mallorca’s best-known attractions, such as Cap de Formentor, the Es Colomer viewpoint, the Monastery of Lluc and the centre of Pollença. 

It is also a popular area with walkers and cyclists. There are various routes in the surrounding area, and some of the roads that cross the Serra start from here, so it’s handy to have your accommodation nearby.

That said, it’s well worth setting aside some time to explore Puerto Pollença at a leisurely pace. You can stroll along the seafront promenade, go for a swim, sit at a terrace café or find somewhere to eat by the bay.

Some hotels invite you to explore Mallorca, whilst others make you want to stay a little longer to enjoy their facilities. Hoposa Illa d'Or falls into the latter category. Its location, right by the bay and just a short walk from the seafront promenade, allows you to combine days out with moments of relaxation without having to compromise on anything.

Inside the hotel is La Terrassa, a restaurant serving Mediterranean cuisine with views of the bay. It’s the perfect place to linger over lunch, enjoy a dinner with a view or round off the day with a drink by the bay. And if you fancy doing something a little different during your stay, the hotel also offers the chance to explore the coastline aboard the llaüt Isabel María, an exclusive experience that lets you discover the Port of Pollensa from the sea.

Wellbeing also plays an important role. After exploring the Serra de Tramuntana, you can unwind in the spa, which offers a range of treatments and relaxation areas, whilst the swimming pool is another option for a peaceful spell. In addition, the hotel has a adults-only swimming pool, situated overlooking the Mediterranean. 

If you’re the sort of person who makes the most of your holidays to stay active, Illa d’Or makes it easy too. It features a gym, a heated swimming pool, a tennis court and specific facilities for cyclists, such as bike hire, storage space and other thoughtful touches designed for those who want to explore Mallorca on two wheels.

All in all, Hoposa Illa d’Or is particularly well-suited to couples and travellers looking to combine a few days of relaxation by the sea with excursions into the Serra de Tramuntana.

If you’re travelling to Puerto de Pollensa without a car, the Hoposa Daina could be a practical choice thanks to its location. The beach, restaurants, terraces and the harbour promenade are just a few metres from the hotel, so you can get around the area on foot and won’t need to use a car for your day-to-day activities.

The saltwater swimming pool is one of the hotel’s most distinctive features. It’s situated right by the bay and offers sea views, so you can have a swim or relax for a while after a hike in the Serra de Tramuntana. 

Right next door is the Lemon Bar, the perfect spot to enjoy a cocktail, listen to live music on summer evenings or simply relax whilst gazing out over the bay. All this is complemented by an Art Deco-inspired design, which gives the hotel its own unique character within the Port of Pollença.

The location makes it very easy to combine relaxation with sightseeing. From the hotel, you can organise trips to Cap de Formentor, the Es Colomer viewpoint or the Monastery of Lluc, explore the historic centre of Pollença or hire a bike to discover some of the most popular routes in the north of Mallorca. On your return, you’ll find everything you need just a few metres away: restaurants, cafés, shops and one of the liveliest areas in the harbour.

If you’re travelling by bike, you’ll also find facilities designed with you in mind, such as bike hire, a garage, a bike wash area, tools and mechanical assistance. This is an added bonus for those who want to explore the Serra de Tramuntana on two wheels without having to worry about a thing.

Hoposa Daina is a highly recommended choice for couples and travellers looking for a centrally located hotel with sea views, a relaxed atmosphere and the privilege of having the whole of Puerto de Pollença at their feet.

Hoposa Bahía is a small hotel situated next to the Pine Walk, right on the waterfront of Puerto Pollensa Bay. It is close to the town centre, though in a quieter area away from the hustle and bustle of the main streets.

The location makes it very easy to explore Puerto Pollensa on foot. From the hotel, you can head straight out for a stroll by the sea, pop down to the beach or walk along the Pine Walk without needing to take the car.

The hotel’s restaurant is situated right by the beach and overlooks the Mediterranean. You can have breakfast overlooking the sea, stop for lunch after a day out in the Serra de Tramuntana, or sit down for dinner at the end of the day. It’s a space that allows you to make the most of the hotel’s location without having to go anywhere else.

You can also use Puerto Pollensa as a base from which to explore other parts of northern Mallorca. Cap de Formentor, Cala Sant Vicente and the old town of Pollensa are all within easy reach. After your day out, returning to the hotel and taking a stroll along the Pine Walk is a much more peaceful way to round off the day.

Thanks to its size, location and atmosphere, Hoposa Bahía is particularly well-suited if you’re looking for peaceful accommodation, close to the sea and the centre of Puerto Pollensa.

Sport and holidays go hand in hand at Hoposa Villaconcha Family & Sport. The hotel is just a few minutes from Puerto Pollensa beach and close to several cycling routes that wind through the Serra de Tramuntana, so you can combine rest days with your training or set off straight away to explore the island. 

One of its biggest draws is that it’s designed with serious athletes in mind. As well as a fully-equipped Bike Centre – complete with a workshop, bike hire, bike storage and everything you need to prepare for each ride – the hotel boasts a 25-metre heated semi-Olympic swimming pool, a gym and dedicated training areas for before or after tackling some of the island’s most iconic mountain passes.

 It even features a hypoxia chamber – a facility rarely found in hotels – which allows you to simulate high-altitude training and improve your physical fitness.

But Villaconcha offers much more than just cycling. Triathletes will find areas to practise transitions, the option of personalised training sessions and a room where they can watch live broadcasts of sporting events. After training, the hotel also offers a chance to recover with a massage area, a spa and a range of dining options including varied buffets and the ‘Healthy Pleasures’ menus, designed for those who wish to continue looking after their diet whilst on holiday.

Although sport is at its very heart, the hotel is also specially designed for families. It features four outdoor swimming pools, a children’s area with slides and water games, as well as a bouncy castle, a playground and a kids’ club, where the little ones can have fun whilst their parents relax or make the most of the hotel’s other facilities.

Whilst the children play, parents can relax or make use of the hotel’s other facilities. Furthermore, the variety of facilities means that guests can tailor their stay to suit different plans, whether they’re here to train for a competition, cycle through the Serra de Tramuntana or simply spend a few days in Mallorca with the family. 

Hoposa Panorama is Hoposa’s latest addition in Puerto Pollensa and is situated next to Llenaire Beach, in a quiet, family-friendly area. The hotel offers two types of accommodation: it has 19 rooms with balconies and 18 apartments, a choice that suits couples, families and those who prefer more space during their stay.

The premium apartments have been recently refurbished and feature a living room, kitchen and, in some units, a balcony or terrace. There are also the Tramuntana apartments, a simpler and more functional option which is also the only accommodation at the hotel where pets weighing up to 20 kg are allowed. The standard rooms also feature a balcony, a sofa bed, a minibar and a Nespresso coffee machine.

Outside, you’ll find a swimming pool with a sunbathing area, sun loungers and parasols. The hotel also has a gym and a café-bar with a terrace, as well as a buffet breakfast. Its location right next to Llenaire Beach means you can step straight out to enjoy the sea and combine days at the beach with excursions around Puerto Pollensa and the Serra de Tramuntana.

For those who want to explore the area by bike, Panorama has a bike storage area. It also offers low-cost water sports, so you can add other seaside activities to your itinerary during your stay.

With its mix of rooms and self-catering flats, its facilities and its location next to Llenaire, Hoposa Panorama is an attractive option for those looking to stay in Puerto Pollensa and wanting to be close to the beach, especially if they’re travelling with their family or need accommodation offering greater independence.

It is situated right on the seafront in Puerto Pollensa, less than 10 metres from the beach. The hotel occupies two Mallorcan-style buildings, built between the 1950s and 1970s and recently refurbished. In total, it has 116 rooms, including options with sea views, side views of the bay, standard rooms and Junior Suites with a balcony or terrace.

Outside, you’ll find a swimming pool surrounded by gardens and an adults-only rooftop area, where you can sunbathe and enjoy incredible views in a more peaceful setting. After a day exploring the Serra, you can make the most of these facilities to relax before heading out for dinner or a stroll around Puerto Pollensa. 

El Uyal also has various facilities for those who wish to keep fit whilst on holiday. Its gym is equipped with treadmills, a spinning bike, an elliptical trainer, a rowing machine, weight training machines and a range of training equipment. It also offers bike hire, a garage, a bike wash area, tools, a washing machine and tumble dryer, and a water bottle for cyclists.

It also offers a car hire service, laundry facilities and a babysitting service on request.

It is an adults-only boutique hotel situated right on the seafront of Puerto Pollensa Bay, about 10 metres from the beach. Its location makes it easy to get around the area and combine relaxing days by the sea with day trips. 

One of its most special spots is the rooftop swimming pool, from where you can admire Puerto Pollensa Bay whilst sunbathing or enjoying a swim with panoramic views. Added to this are its sea-facing gardens, perfect for reading, relaxing or simply enjoying the tranquillity that characterises the hotel. 

The whole hotel is designed in a carefully curated boho-chic style, with light-filled spaces, natural materials and décor that instils a sense of calm from the moment you arrive.

Some rooms offer mountain views, whilst others look directly out onto the bay, and certain rooms also feature a balcony.

The hotel also has two swimming pools and offers free access to the spa at the nearby Hoposa Uyal, where you can make use of the facilities after spending the day exploring the Serra de Tramuntana.

Deià has a rather different atmosphere to other parts of the Serra de Tramuntana. The village has retained its cobbled streets and is surrounded by mountains, with the sea ever-present in the landscape.

From here, you can visit Cala Deià, Llucalcari, Sóller or Valldemossa, as well as explore various walking routes and viewpoints from which to admire the coast.

You can also drive along the Serra road and stop off at some of the small villages and places of interest you’ll come across along the way.

If you’d rather stay in the area, there are footpaths starting near Deià that allow you to explore the surroundings without having to take the car.

Hoposa Costa d'Or is situated in Llucalcari, in the Deià area, perched on a hilltop surrounded by the Serra de Tramuntana mountains, with the Mediterranean Sea in the background.

It is an adults-only hotel, with a minimum age of 14, and features 41 recently refurbished rooms that retain a Mallorcan-inspired style.

Depending on the category, you can find rooms with views of the Serra, the small village of Llucalcari or directly out to sea. Some also have a balcony, whilst others feature a private terrace overlooking the Mediterranean.

The outdoor swimming pool is situated on an elevated part of the hotel and offers unobstructed sea views. Surrounded by greenery and featuring Balinese sun loungers, it is one of the best spots from which to appreciate the Costa d’Or’s location. From here, you can also watch the sun set over the Serra and the Mediterranean, particularly in the late afternoon.

The hotel also offers options for those wishing to do some exercise during their stay. It has a gym equipped with a treadmill, spinning bike, multi-position bench, bench press, leg curl machine and dumbbells, as well as a tennis court. It also offers bike hire, which can be handy if you want to explore some of the roads and paths in the Serra de Tramuntana.

As for the food, the Costa d’Or Restaurant serves Mallorcan cuisine and a menu featuring fish, seafood, rice dishes and other Mediterranean specialities.

The restaurant overlooks the sea and is also open to the general public, so you don’t need to be staying at the hotel to have lunch or dinner there. During the day, the hotel also has a lounge bar serving light snacks at lunchtime.

As well as the outdoor areas, the Costa d’Or has a reading room for those who prefer to spend some quiet time inside the hotel. Its facilities also include a 24-hour reception, free Wi-Fi, car hire and pool towels.

The hotel team themselves recommend making the most of your stay to discover some of the area’s lesser-known spots, such as the Biniaraix ravine, visiting the Sa Foradada viewpoint or heading down to the crystal-clear waters below the hotel for a spot of snorkelling. These are little gems that often go unnoticed but allow you to experience a much more authentic Serra de Tramuntana.

Hoposa Costa d’Or is an ideal choice for couples and travellers seeking peace and quiet, nature and a hotel where the landscape takes centre stage during your holiday.

Cala San Vicente is situated on the north coast of Mallorca, about 10 kilometres from Puerto Pollensa, and has a much quieter atmosphere than other parts of the island. The area comprises four small coves: Cala Barques, Cala Clara, Cala Molins and Cala Carbó, all surrounded by cliffs and with the Serra de Tramuntana mountains close by.

Each has its own unique features, but in all of them you’ll find crystal-clear waters and spots where you can spend the day by the sea. Cala Barques is the largest and is home to the Hoposa Niu. You can also explore the different coves on foot, go snorkelling, sail or simply head to Puerto Pollensa and continue from there to other parts of northern Mallorca.

The area also serves as an excellent starting point for exploring the Serra de Tramuntana. From Cala San Vicente, you can head to Puerto Pollensa, Cap de Formentor or the Es Colomer viewpoint, before returning to a much smaller and quieter area to round off the day.

Hoposa Niu is situated directly opposite Cala Barques, on a cliff top and surrounded by pine trees. It is a small hotel, with just 24 rooms, so it has a rather different atmosphere to the large hotels in other parts of Mallorca. It also has direct access to the beach.

The rooms are divided into different categories. There are standard rooms with mountain views, rooms with sea views and a balcony, and Junior Suites with a balcony, a lounge with an extra bed and unobstructed views.

All rooms feature air conditioning and heating, free Wi-Fi, a minibar, a safe and tea and coffee-making facilities.

The outdoor swimming pool is situated on the roof terrace, from where you can see Cala Barques and the Mediterranean. The hotel also has a reading room and various communal areas, although its main attraction remains the ability to step straight out onto the cove with the sea practically on your doorstep.

The Niu Restaurant is situated right by the sea and has a terrace overlooking Cala Barques and the cliffs. Its menu focuses on Mediterranean cuisine, featuring fresh fish, paellas and seafood.

It also serves breakfast and dinner by the sea, and you do not need to be staying at the hotel to have lunch or dinner at the restaurant. Although Cala Sant Vicenç invites you to spend much of the day by the sea, you can also use the hotel as a base for excursions around the north of Mallorca.

Puerto Pollensa, Cap de Formentor and other spots in the Serra de Tramuntana are within easy reach, so you can combine beach time, hiking and sightseeing during the same stay. Niu also offers a range of services specifically for cyclists, such as bike hire, a bike shed, tools and water bottles.

Given its size, its location opposite Cala Barques and its direct access to the sea, it’s a particularly attractive option for those who prefer to stay in a small setting and be close to the coast throughout their holiday.

Every traveller is looking for a different kind of holiday, and that is precisely why Hoposa Hotels offers a wide variety of options in some of the most beautiful spots in the Serra de Tramuntana.

If you’re looking for peace and relaxation, Illa d’Or, Uyal or Pollentia are excellent choices.
If you’re travelling with your family, Villaconcha combines self-catering apartments, children’s activities and sports facilities that are hard to find in other hotels.
If you prefer a hotel with plenty of charm, Bahía or Niu offer a much more intimate experience by the sea.
And if you want to unwind surrounded by nature, Costa d’Or makes the Serra de Tramuntana the real star of your holiday.

At Hoposa Hotels, you’ll find unique accommodation in some of the most spectacular spots in the Serra de Tramuntana. Discover which one best suits your trip and start planning your next getaway to Mallorca.
