Experience a different side of Mallorca with Iberostar

Mallorca is often seen as an easy beach break, but where you stay can completely change how the island feels. Iberostar’s beautiful offerings across the Balearics focus on giving you that choice. Some are set up for switching off completely, others make it easy to get out and explore, and a few are built so you barely need to leave. What ties them together is a clear sense of place, whether that’s being right by protected natural areas, close to working local communities, or within easy reach of Palma when you want a bit more going on.

Experience a different side of Mallorca with Iberostar

Wake up by Es Trenc and take Mallorca at your own pace

Set in Colònia de Sant Jordi, Iberostar Selection Es Trenc is all about the location. You’re right by Es Trenc beach, often considered one of the best on the island, and within walking or cycling distance of Las Salinas, where Mallorca’s well-known salt is still produced. It’s a quieter part of the island, with a traditional fishing village feel, so it suits anyone who wants a slower pace without feeling cut off. The hotel has been fully renovated with a clean coastal look, and every room faces the sea, which makes a huge difference. There’s a rooftop bar that works well for evenings, while Salivent focuses on locally sourced dishes, particularly seafood. You’ve also got a well-thought-out wellness area, including peaceful treatment spaces, and a gym terrace for those who prefer to stay active.

Switch off properly with an adults-only stay near Palma

If you’d rather stay closer to Palma, Iberostar Selection Llaut Palma offers a more adult-focused setup. With no children running around, the atmosphere is calmer, with more attention given to the spa and dining. The spa itself is one of the main draws, covering a large space with saunas, a Turkish bath, hydrotherapy areas, and dedicated relaxation zones. For something different, Katagi Blau brings in Asian fusion dining, including teppanyaki and omakase-style options, all with views across Palma Bay. There’s also a rooftop pool area reserved for Star Prestige guests, which feels more private and exclusive if you fancy upgrading. While you’re not directly in the city, you’re close enough to dip in and out when you want a change of scene.

More space, more choice, and everything in one place

The twin hotels of Iberostar Selection Albufera Playa and Iberostar Selection Albufera Park work as one larger resort on Playa de Muro, and the main advantage is the flexibility. You can use facilities across both, which means more choice when it comes to restaurants, pools, and activities. It’s an all-inclusive setup, but it doesn’t feel limited. There are ten different dining and bar options, covering everything from Greek and Mexican to Spanish tapas and beachside grills. The pool setup is extensive, with seven in total, including family areas, a rooftop option, and swim-up access from some rooms. For families, the Star Camp programme and Aquafun zone keep things fun, while adults still have space to relax. There’s also a strong activity offering, from paddle yoga and water sports to tennis, plus direct access to the beach and the nearby Albufera Natural Park.

Beachfront family stays made easy

Also on Playa de Muro, Iberostar Waves Ciudad Blanca is a more straightforward, family-friendly option with apartment-style accommodation. It’s a good fit if you want a bit more independence, especially for longer stays or travelling with younger children. The setup is simple but covers what you need, with a buffet restaurant, two bars, and easy access to the beach. Star Camp is available here too, with activities for different age groups, along with a dedicated kids' pool. You’re also about five kilometres from Alcúdia’s old town, which is definitely worth a visit, but the main draw is having everything set up for a relaxed, low effort stay by the sea.

Secrets Moxché Playa del Carmen: The Riviera Maya all-inclusive that feels anything but ordinary

17 September 2026

There are all-inclusive resorts where everything you need is conveniently in one place, and then there are resorts where exploring the hotel becomes part of the holiday itself. Secrets Moxché Playa del Carmen very much falls into the latter camp. This adults-only retreat on Mexico’s Riviera Maya brings together contemporary design, 485 suites, an impressive collection of restaurants and bars, and some far less expected touches. Think cenote-style pools hidden amongst stone and greenery, an interior lagoon beach, rooftop swimming, taco tastings, and a nightclub you need to know how to find. Better still, Playa del Carmen’s famous Fifth Avenue is around ten minutes away by car when you do feel like venturing beyond the resort.
