Can Ferrereta, Mallorca to open this month

LOCATED in the authentic Mallorcan town of Santanyí (a 40-minute drive from Palma) on the south east coast, Can Ferrereta will welcome guests this Spring and open up this lesser-known part of the island for the first time in April 2021.

The Soldevila-Ferrer family, who also own Sant Francesc Hotel Singular in Palma, have meticulously restored a historic 17th century building, transforming it into a stunning 32-room hotel surrounded by verdant gardens. It is home to a Mediterranean restaurant OCRE, a poolside all-day dining restaurant and bar LA FRESCA, a beautifully designed spa SA CALMA with hammam, indoor pool and gym, as well as a tranquil library, curated by the expert team at Maison Assouline. Can Ferrereta is reminiscent of a grand summer house, with space, natural light and textures blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor living.

Can Ferrereta is open to adults and children over 14.
