Overview

 
El Vicenc de la Mar is an ultra-stylish 5-star hideaway tucked between pine-clad hills and three golden coves on Majorca’s peaceful north coast. Think rooftop infinity pool with cinematic sea views, a destination restaurant overlooking the bay, a serene spa and a clutch of suites with private pools, whirlpools and swim-up terraces. With just 35 rooms, it feels more like a design-led beach house than a hotel – but with all the indulgent frills of a luxury escape.

From the moment you step onto the rooftop terrace at El Vicenc de la Mar, you see why this is one of Majorca’s most coveted coastal boltholes. The infinity pool melts into the Med, Balearic beats drift from the bar, and hammocks and daybeds invite long, lazy afternoons. Downstairs, a chic spa, private-cinema-style screening room, bookstore and cycling hub round out the grown-up, quietly luxurious vibe. For couples or friends seeking the Balearics’ softer side, El Vicenc de la Mar delivers in style: three sandy coves on the doorstep, refined dining and wellness, and boutique interiors that feel tailor-made for slow, indulgent days. It’s around 1 hour 30 minutes from Palma de Mallorca (PMI). See more Balearics holidays.

Map & location


Cala San Vicente, Majorca, Balearics, Spain

Cala San Vicente is one of northern Majorca’s most picturesque corners – a former fishing village framed by rugged cliffs, pine forest and transparent turquoise sea. El Vicenc de la Mar sits right in the resort centre, steps from the pretty Cala Molinos cove and a short stroll from Cala Clara and Cala Barques, so you can beach‑hop between three bays without ever needing a car.

Despite the laid-back vibe, you’re within easy reach of Pollensa’s historic old town and further natural gems like the protected wetlands of S’Albufera Natural Park, ideal if you fancy combining beach time with hiking, cycling or birdwatching.

  • Cala Molinos beach 40m
  • Cala Clara beach 140m
  • Cala Barques beach 230m
  • Natural Park S’Albufera de Mallorca 14.5km
  • Approx. transfer time from airport 1 hour 30 minutes

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


The hotel’s main pool is a chic freshwater infinity pool on the rooftop terrace, edged by sunbeds, hammocks and cushioned loungers that gaze straight out over the bay – arguably one of Cala San Vicente’s best viewpoints. Complimentary pool towels are included, and facilities may vary by season.

Down at sea level you have three separate beaches within just a few hundred metres: Cala Molinos, Cala Clara and Cala Barques, each with gently shelving sand and crystal‑clear water ideal for swimming and snorkelling. Kayak rental is available locally if you’d like to explore the rocky coastline and hidden coves from the water.

Spa, sports & wellness


Wellness is a strong suit at El Vicenc de la Mar. The spa features a sauna, steam room and Turkish bath, alongside a menu of massages and beauty rituals (local charges apply; minimum spa age is typically 12 years). It’s a calm, contemporary space that works as well for post‑cycle recovery as it does for pre‑dinner pampering.

The air‑conditioned gym is impressively equipped for a boutique hotel, with cardio machines, a free weights area and fixed strength equipment, and is generally open extended hours. There are also Pilates and yoga sessions (extra charge) if you prefer a more mindful workout.

Cyclists are especially well catered for: expect secure bike storage with CCTV, cleaning area, on‑site repair and maintenance points, air pumps, safety locks, bike hire (chargeable) and detailed road‑cycling routes into the Tramuntana mountains.

Elsewhere, the hotel adds character with a cosy cinema room, a small bookstore/library corner, and an intimate, design‑forward lobby where concierge and reception can arrange everything from scooter hire to restaurant recommendations.

On the ground floor by the seafront, U Mayol bistro offers relaxed plates that champion fresh Mallorcan produce and daily catch, ideal for long lunches or casual evenings.

There’s also a stylish rooftop bar and pool bar pouring local, international and premium drinks from midday into the late evening, with a soundtrack and setting made for golden hour cocktails. A smart dress code may apply in the restaurants, and reservations or supplements may be required depending on your board basis; opening dates and times can vary by season.
