Small hotels on the beach in Mallorca
Mallorca is a paradise for beach holidays and water sports enthusiasts. 550 kilometres of coastline surround this beautiful Mediterranean island, which is only a good two hours' flight from the UK. The island is popular with families and couples, those seeking relaxation and active holidaymakers alike, not least because it offers a wide range of attractive options and accommodation for beach holidays in Mallorca. Those who do not want to spend their holiday in a large, anonymous hotel will look for a small boutique hotel on the beach in Mallorca with a family atmosphere where they can relax. Such small beach hotels in Mallorca are rare, but we have found some beautiful gems for you!
Advantages of small hotels on the beach in Mallorca
- Small hotels on the beach offer a personal and peaceful atmosphere that large hotel complexes cannot match.
- Guests appreciate direct access to the sea
- The relaxed atmosphere and personalised service
For travellers looking for an authentic boutique hotel beach holiday in Mallorca, these accommodations are ideal for enjoying the natural beauty of the island in peace. Whether it's beach walks, water sports or cosy evenings, small beach hotels in Mallorca combine comfort with a special flair away from the tourist crowds.
The northeast: endless beaches and small hotels right on the beach
Mallorca's beautiful beaches and bays are so diverse that you could easily spend every day of your holiday beach hopping in Mallorca. The north and northeast of the island are particularly popular for their fine sandy beaches. In the bays of Alcudia and Pollenca, the water slopes gently, ideal for holidays with small children, who can play and splash around for hours in the fine sand or in the knee-deep, warm water.
The Playa de Muro beach section is particularly popular and, with its crystal-clear water and fine, endless beach, is considered one of the best beaches for a family-friendly beach holiday in Mallorca.
Looking for a small hotel directly on the beach, we found the Sofia Alcudia Beach, a small, modern beach hotel that is anything but a bed castle. The beautiful hotel is located directly in the bay of Alcudia, only a few steps separate the hotel from the sea. And that is truly perfect for a relaxing beach holiday. The finest sandy beach, which only slopes gently, and wonderfully clear water provide the ideal backdrop for a beautiful holiday. The modern rooms of the Sofia Alcudia Beach offer enough space for couples or families, and in the hotel's own restaurant you can indulge yourself wonderfully. There is even a small spa area for relaxing moments.
What we particularly like: There are also restaurants and bars in the immediate vicinity and a playground for the hotel's younger guests. The port of Port Alcudia is within easy walking distance. Numerous leisure and water sports activities are available along the beautiful beach.

Picturesque coastal resort
A little further up in the north is the somewhat smaller bay of Port Pollenca. It, too, delights with its fine sand and crystal-clear water. Port Pollenca is a little more tranquil and offers a picturesque harbour and a pretty pedestrian zone along the sea, lined with small restaurants, shops and bars.
Directly on the front promenade you will find the hotel Hoposa Pollentia.
Situated directly by the sea, this chic lifestyle hotel offers an outstanding view of the bay of Port Pollenca and the sandy beach. The beach hotel on Mallorca impresses with its location directly opposite the beach.
What we particularly like: The promenade of Port Pollenca is simply picturesque. Here you can spend lovely days and evenings surrounded by beautiful nature.

Excellent water quality
Directly in the harbour of Port Pollenca is the restaurant Stay, where you can dine with breathtaking views of the bay. In addition to breakfast and reasonably priced lunches, the restaurant offers a fine menu of Mediterranean dishes in the evening. In summer you should reserve a table, because the breathtaking view and the good cuisine are very popular! At the Stay there are also numerous excursion boats, which offer boat trips along the coast. Every hour you can go by boat to Playa Formentor, where another great sandy beach with fantastic water quality and wonderful views awaits you.
If we come a little further north, we will find Cala Sant Vicenc, a small, hidden residential area. The picturesque bay is lined with rocks and pine trees. There are only a few hotels here - directly in the first sea line is the small Hotel Hoposa Niu directly on the fine beach. The small hotel has only 24 rooms - therefore, breakfast with a fantastic view of the bay is already wonderfully unexcited and relaxed. The water in the bay is crystal clear and ideal for snorkelling.
What we particularly like: Mallorca has so many beautiful beaches and bays to discover. There are four beaches close to Hoposa Niu, so you can enjoy a variety of bathing options during your holiday.
See available rooms
Sandy beaches and crystal clear water
In the neighbourhood, about a 5-minute walk from the sea, is the charming boutique Hotel Cala Sant Vicenc. The pretty villa in bright red houses 38 comfortable double rooms and suites and offers a beautiful pool in the well-kept garden with lush palm trees, which invites you to swim and relax. Several beaches can be easily reached on foot from here, and yet you can enjoy the wonderful peace and quiet and the wonderful view of the mountains at the Hotel Cala Sant Vicenc.
What we particularly like: If you're already there, make sure you take your rental car up into the mountains and enjoy the breathtaking view of Cap Formentor. A picturesque photo spot.

A beach hotel in the middle of nature
This location is truly privileged. The Es Blau des Nord Hotel in the north of Mallorca is located on one of the least built-up stretches of beach in Mallorca. There is no trace of mass tourism and bed castles. Instead, the small beach hotel near Colonia de Sant Pere welcomes you in the midst of beautiful nature and with a breathtaking view of the north-east coast of the island. The small beach hotel on Mallorca has just 53 rooms. The furnishings are minimalist in a modern, Scandinavian country house style. Some of the rooms also have a sea view. But don't worry if you don't get one of the sea view rooms, you can enjoy a direct view of the blue Mediterranean from the beautiful garden, the restaurant and the pool.
What we particularly like: The area around the Es Blau Des Nord Hotel is picturesque and invites you to go hiking and walking along the sea. The coast offers good opportunities for snorkelling. The hotel can also organise a kayak or surfing equipment for water sports activities on request.

The east coast - small wild bathing bays and hotels from cosy to luxurious
The east coast inspires by innumerable small bath bays. Sometimes a little wider, sometimes small and original - the choice is almost limitless. Some are easy to reach by car - and therefore highly frequented. Others are so pristine that they cannot be reached by car and can only be reached by a short walk through the terrain. There you will enjoy a little more peace and quiet and space around the towel.
Hidden bays
We especially like the Cala Torta. Admittedly, the journey to this small bay in the northeast of the island is a little difficult. In the last third we drive through some rough terrain, then a short walk follows. But once arrived, you will be thrilled by the small bathing bay that is framed on the left and on the right by picturesque rocks. The water is crystal clear. Especially the locals get lost here. There are no hotels - only a small rustic beach bar provides the guests with cool drinks and homemade food. Especially the seafood plate is to be recommended.
Just a short distance from Can Simoneta, another luxury hotel was opened by the same operators, named Pleta de Mar Luxury by Nature. The exclusive hotel by the sea offers a maximum of privacy with only 30 rooms. The luxury Land-Hotel has only comfortable and spacious suites. The rooms are a dream of natural materials, earthy colours and all offer a magnificent view of nature - some even to the sea.
What we particularly like: The adults only Hotel Can Simoneta is the perfect place for guests looking for maximum peace and quiet. As the hotel is a little off the beaten track, you can really enjoy heavenly peace and relaxation here.

The Playa de Canyamel in the east of Mallorca is much better developed. Luxury hotels such as Can Simoneta have secured one of the coveted places on the edge of the bay directly in the first sea line and offer their guests a breathtaking panorama and heavenly peace away from mass tourism. The 5-star hotel offers two beautiful pools from which you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Mediterranean. Another highlight is an excellent gourmet restaurant, which spoils you with delicious culinary delights.
What we particularly like: The adults only Hotel Can Simoneta is the perfect place for guests looking for maximum peace and quiet. As the hotel is a little off the beaten track, you can really enjoy heavenly peace and relaxation here.

The South - Caribbean beaches and family hotels
The south of Mallorca is on everyone's lips mainly because of its Caribbean beach Es Trenc. Turquoise blue, crystal clear water and the finest sandy beach make the holidaymaker's heart beat faster and give the feeling that you have landed directly in the Caribbean.
Only a few hundred metres away is the small, family hotel Villa Piccola by Cassai which awaits its guests with very warm and personal service and cosy apartments. The pretty beach hotel has only 8 rooms - a luxury if you consider that the hotel is located directly at the popular Es Trenc beach. This also includes a small, beautifully laid out pool, which is even heated in the cool season. Apart from the famous beach Es Trenc, there are also other beautiful beaches and harbour towns like Cala d'Dor or the romantic fishing harbour of Cala Figuera that are easy to reach from Villa Piccola.
Tip: Unfortunately, you have to say that the beach of Es Trenc is very well visited. Those who accept a small walk or come early in the morning or in the low season can enjoy all its beauty.
What we particularly like: The beach of Es Trenc, but also shops and restaurants are only a few minutes' walk away.

The Agroturismo Cantó de Marina between Campos and Ses Covetes on Mallorca is a very special country hotel. You can only walk about 900 metres to the sea.
You will hardly find a finca hotel on Mallorca closer than this. The Agroturismo Cantó de Marina has only 19 modern rooms, a beautiful pool and a great restaurant. To enjoy the greatest possible tranquillity, it is reserved for adults only.
What we particularly like: As the charming hotel is located between the coast and the town of Campos, both the sea and restaurants are not far away.

The West - rugged nature and original hotels
The West is more of an Eldorado for climbing enthusiasts and nature lovers. Bathing holidays are only possible to a limited extent due to the numerous rocky sections. But they do exist, the small, crystal-clear bathing bays. The beautiful Hotel Hoposa Costa D'Or is in a spectacular location. The luxurious 4-star country hotel on Mallorca has 40 rooms of different categories. Some of them have terraces as well as a magnificent sea view. Everywhere on the spacious grounds and by the pool you can enjoy an enchanting view of the Mediterranean Sea.
What we particularly like: The attentive staff will make sure you have everything you need during your holiday at the Hoposa Costa D'Or. In addition to the beautifully situated pool, there is a fitness room and bicycles can also be booked through the hotel.
