La Residencia A Belmond Hotel Mallorca
Deia | Balearics
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
La Residencia, A Belmond Hotel Mallorca is one of Majorca’s most storied hideaways – a cluster of ochre-stone manor houses, citrus groves and tiered olive terraces gazing over the artists’ village of Deia. Inside, rustic beams, antique furniture and contemporary art meet polished, intuitive service. Days drift by between saltwater pools with Tramuntana views, languid lunches by the grill and olive-oil scrubs in the garden spa, while evenings revolve around candlelit fine dining at El Olivo and mellow live music on the terrace. With character-filled rooms, suites with private plunge pools and thoughtful touches for both couples and families, this is a bohemian-luxury retreat with a strong sense of place.
Stone paths wend through jasmine-scented gardens, saltwater pools reflect the Tramuntana peaks and terraces spill down towards terracotta rooftops – La Residencia, A Belmond Hotel Mallorca wraps you in the atmosphere of an authentic Mallorcan village house, elevated with Belmond’s trademark service and cuisine. It’s the kind of place where breakfast is unhurried, lunch is poolside and sundowners are taken on a candlelit terrace as the sky turns apricot over Deia.
For couples and families who want the Balearics’ soul rather than its nightlife, La Residencia A Belmond Hotel Mallorca is pure Deia drama: artist ateliers, tiered gardens and pools framed by mountain ridgelines. It’s around 1 hour from Palma de Mallorca Airport (PMI), tucked on a hillside just 250m above Deia’s charming centre of tapas bars, galleries and low-key terraces. See more Balearics holidays.

Location | La Residencia A Belmond Hotel Mallorca
Location
La Residencia sits on a hillside above Deia, one of Majorca’s most coveted enclaves. This small village is woven into the Tramuntana mountain range, a UNESCO-listed landscape of terraced olive groves, stone fincas and lookout trails. From the hotel it’s a short stroll into the village for gourmet restaurants, wine bars and little galleries – Deia has long drawn painters, writers and musicians, and that bohemian edge is still very much alive.
The nearest bathing spot is a rocky cove around 8km away, ideal if you fancy a dip in the Mediterranean between mountain walks. Palma and the island’s sandy south coast beaches are reachable in a leisurely day trip, but most guests are content to sink into the slow rhythm of Deia and the surrounding hills.
