Overview
You won't struggle to find an idyllic wellness escape on picturesque islands like Lombok and Koh Samui. Yet for those keen to switch up their travel plans, looking further afield to Mallorca's Ca'n Beneït is where you can combine calmness, mindfulness and activeness into a single transformative vacation, perched off the eastern coast of the Spanish mainland.
Like other popular retreat spots, there's no shortage of picture-perfect hotels, resorts and villas opening onto the sand or nestled into clifftop trees. However, amid the Serra de Tramuntana mountains in the Binibona valley, Ca'n Beneït offers a wellness escape jam-packed with enchanting experiences primed for holidays filled with activities and relaxation.
Naturally, this stay's undulating surroundings make it a haven for hikers and cyclists. Scenic centuries-old paths sweep through ancient olive groves and Mediterranean woodland before reaching mountain peaks adorned with breathtaking views. Once you've worked up a sweat, diving into crystal-clear waters is never far away.
While some early morning exercise is stellar for clearing your head, Ca'n Beneït has the amenities to counterbalance all that effort. Think a soothing spa and a rejuvenating sauna alongside massages and treatments designed for muscle recovery and energy renewal. Of course, there's also the finer things in life: yoga sessions, wine tastings and infinity pool hangs.
Mallorca is best known for its summer vacations by the Med, but Ca'n Beneït sets itself apart by describing autumn as the region's most authentic season. With the mild September and October weather — the average max temperature is about 24 degrees — you won't have to worry about sweltering daylight hours keeping you laid out beneath the air-con.
Set on 70 acres of pristine hinterland, Balearic culture and tradition shine through every aspect of the property. That includes a fortified medieval Alquería, home to a historic olive mill, and the first and only church built in Binibona, standing in the main courtyard. Showcasing a deep connection with the land, make Ca'n Beneït your next destination for a wellness retreat with a difference.
Ca'n Beneït is open for bookings now at Camí de Binibona, 07314 Binibona, Mallorca. Head to the website for more information.
