Cap Vermell Grand Hotel, Canyamel, Spain

In a secluded valley above Canyamel, stone paths wind between rosemary hedges, pale shutters, and honeyed façades that look lifted from a Mallorcan village. 

Cap Vermell Grand Hotel keeps 142 rooms, suites, and villas with views over pine-clad hills and the distant sea—a countryside hideaway where mornings begin with birdsong and end under starry, ink-dark skies. 

Expect cool limestone floors, wide terraces, and the slow, summery pace of the island’s northeast.

What Makes It Special

• Village-style layout of squares, archways, and cobbled lanes—romantic and walkable.
• Rooms & villas with terraces; some villas with private pools for extra seclusion.
• Serene pools & sun decks set among olive trees and pines.
• Spa & movement—steam, sauna, and restorative treatments scented with citrus and herbs.
• Destination dining—local seafood, garden vegetables, and wood-fired flavors enjoyed al fresco.
• Easy access to coastline & golf—Canyamel’s beach and top courses are a short drive away.

A Day at Cap Vermell Grand

Morning

You wake to the rustle of pines and bells from a distant church. Breakfast arrives with ensaïmada still warm, figs, and island honey. A short walk leads to the upper pool, where swallows cut patterns over the water.

Afternoon

A detour to Canyamel’s cove for a salty swim, then back for a siesta on your terrace. Later, the spa: citrus scrub, warm stones, and a plunge that tingles like new skin.

Evening

Tables spill into a stone courtyard; you share grilled prawns, tomatoes slick with olive oil, and a glass of Mallorcan callet. The hills blush pink as the last light slips away.

Night

Lanterns glow along pathways; from your balcony, you hear only crickets and the faint hush of the breeze through the pines.

• Golf carts are available anytime—just call for pickup.
• The food is superb across the board—especially breakfast and fine dining.
• Breakfast tip: Go before 10:00 AM—late seating can mean crowds and slower service.
