The perfect base to explore Palma the Mallorca situated within walking distance from the shopping heart of the city. It a has a range of comfortable family suites and reflects the vibrant style of its renowned Parisian designer, Jacques Grange.

Suggesting a quieter side to Palma de Mallorca, the contemporary yet luxury Boutique Hotel Calatrava is the perfect way to merge remarkable history with proximity to world-class dining, culture, and shopping.

A dramatic fortress-turned-retreat overlooking the Bay of Palma, offering one of Mallorca’s most distinctive adults-only coastal stays.

Location

Located on a former military fortress within a protected natural area above the Bay of Palma near Cala Blava, Cap Rocat occupies a secluded clifftop position just 20 minutes from Palma’s historic centre and the airport. The setting combines rare privacy with sweeping views across one of Mallorca’s most strategic coastal landscapes, making it both peaceful and unexpectedly accessible.

Atmosphere and Design

Carefully restored from a 19th-century fortress, the hotel preserves its original defensive architecture while introducing refined Mediterranean interiors shaped by stone, light and open horizon views. Vaulted spaces, sandstone walls and discreetly integrated suites create a calm, almost monastic atmosphere that feels deeply connected to the surrounding coastline.

Guest Experience

Rooms and suites are individually positioned within former fortress structures, many with private terraces and panoramic sea views. Access to the sea below, a cliffside infinity pool and quiet pathways through the historic complex reinforce the strong sense of privacy that defines the Cap Rocat experience. The hotel is adults-only, enhancing its tranquil character.

Dining

Dining at Cap Rocat centres around Mediterranean cuisine served in atmospheric historic settings, including terraces overlooking the Bay of Palma. The experience reflects the hotel’s emphasis on place, seasonality and quiet refinement rather than destination-style dining.

Wellness & Spa

Set within the fortress’s former underground spaces, the spa offers one of Mallorca’s most distinctive wellness environments. Treatment rooms, water areas and relaxation spaces are integrated into the original architecture, creating a restorative experience shaped by silence, stone and sea views.
