3 Best Hotels in Deia, Ibiza and the Balearic Islands

A converted 17th-century manor house in the hills above the valley of Deià, this peaceful hotel is known for its traditional sense of luxury. Rooms are spacious and classically furnished, and most have private balconies with stone balustrades and stunning views. Acres of gardens have secluded corners, with deck chairs under the orange trees, bamboo groves, and ancient olive trees, and from everywhere you can hear the sound of water tumbling from a mountain spring. A shuttle bus runs four times daily to the hotel's private cove at Sa Muleta, with a cliffside solarium and lounge deck. Book early: about half the clientele come back year after year.

Like many other St Regis properties, the St Regis Mardavall Mallorca Resort is built on a luxury pedestal. The rooms are carefully crafted to exude elegance and sophistication, while the amenities are well suited for all types of travelers. The hotel has an affinity with Bloody Marys, which you should try while there. There is also the Es Fum Restaurant, which garnered a Michelin star in 2024. While most multicourse meals will leave you uncomfortably full, the multicourse selections at Es Fum will leave you breathless and craving more.

This family-run "hotel on the hill" has a back terrace with a lemon-tree garden and a fantastic view of the mountains. The simply furnished balcony rooms, with exposed beams, share the view. Six refurbished apartments in the nearby annex building (minimum booking: two nights) make D'es Puig an excellent family-friendly choice for extended stays. The hotel gets a lot of repeat business from British visitors, so book early. There's a four-night minimum stay in high season.
