Es Racó d’Artà, Spain

First light slips over the Serra de Llevant and turns the limestone honey-gold; rosemary and wild fennel scent the air. Hidden among orchards and dry-stone terraces, Es Racó d’Artà is a boutique design retreat of just 31 suites and casitas—rural Mallorca distilled to silence, sunlight, and craft. Minutes from Artà’s old town and a short drive to virgin coves, it’s where days unspool slowly: ceramics at a long farmhouse table, swims edged by birdsong, and dinners under a spill of stars.

What Makes It Special

• Landscape-first architecture—chalky plaster, reclaimed timber, artisan textiles, and shaded patios that frame mountain and orchard views
• Wellness with roots—yoga decks, meditation corners, natural treatments, and saltwater pools
• Craft & kitchen garden—hands-on ceramics, basketry, and cooking sessions; produce from on-site huertos
• Trails & quiet coves—walks into the Llevant hills; hidden beaches within easy reach
• Boutique scale—31 keys for real calm; many casitas with private terraces or plunge pools

A Day at Es Racó d’Artà

Morning
Bare feet on cool stone; a bowl of figs, almond milk, and warm pa amb oli as swallows stitch the sky. Join a garden-side yoga session, then wander a rosemary trail where cicadas start their chorus.

Afternoon
Clay on your hands in the ceramics studio, then a float in the saltwater pool; lunch brings tomatoes still warm from the vine, local cheese, and oil with a peppery bite. A siesta behind linen sheers while the pines whisper.

Evening
Borrow e-bikes to Artà for a slow lap around the cloister, or drive to a pale-sand cala for a sunset swim.

Night
Back on the terrace: grilled sea bass with lemon and herbs, a glass of Mallorcan prensal blanc, and a sky so clear you can hear the crickets keeping time.
