Set within a former 19th-century military fortress overlooking the Bay of Palma, Cap Rocat is unlike almost anywhere else on Mallorca. The old stone fortifications have been carefully transformed into an adults-only hotel, with rooms and suites built into the original structure and the sea always close by. Each summer, the fortress also becomes the setting for Festival Cap Rocat, bringing opera and classical music to the Mediterranean coast.

There’s little reason to leave once you’re here. Swim from the rocky coastline, spend an afternoon at the spa carved into the old fortress or dine by the water at Sea Club. Surrounded by protected coastline and pine forest, Cap Rocat offers a rare sense of privacy while remaining deeply connected to the landscape and culture of the island.
