Mirabó de Valldemossa
Mallorca, Spain
PROPERTY FEATURES
The Premises
For the best Valldemossa views short of climbing in a helicopter, stay in the yellow-stone, palm-fringed Mirabó de Valldemossa, a scenic 16th-century olive farm. This boutique hotel with just nine bedrooms offers seclusion, romance and bonhomie in an idyllic milk-and-honey hued Mallorcan village. Expect warmth, wilderness and charm in abundance from this family-run retreat.
SMITH EXTRA
Compliments of the House
A bottle of red, white or rosé from the hotel's vineyard

At the Hotel
CHECK-OUT: Noon, but flexible, subject to availability. Earliest check-in, 1pm.
Rates include buffet breakfast.
FACILITIES
Gardens, library with DVDs and CDs, free WiFi throughout and parking. In rooms: standard TV, DVD and CD player.
PACKING TIPS
Bring your conversational charm and some stories for the warm and welcoming manager, Antonio. A classic read will stand you in good stead at the poolside and you might want some spare euros to light a candle for resident saint La Beata.
CHILDREN
The stones, steps, pools and sheer drops mean children need constant supervising – Mirabó is not really designed for little ones. However, La Suite de la Palmera can be booked for a family of four on request.
POOL
There is an outdoor pool, as well as a plunge pool for two.
ALSO
Obviously smokers can light up outside, and there are lots of cosy corners in which to indulge this vice.

Rooms
Follow the stone steps that lead through the pebble- and flower-strewn garden and bed down in El Porche de las Ovejas, split off from the main building. This spacious mini kingdom was once home to some very lucky ewes and rams but don’t let this put you off, there’s no trace of furry, four-legged friends amid the less-is-more decor. You get first dibs on the terrace outside your room, which overlooks the grounds and has stunning Valldemossa views; the perfect place to top up your blossoming tan.
Food & Drink
Unforgettable Features
The Mirabó restaurant is set within the main room of the old olive press, which still stands proud. The decor abounds with rustic simplicity and the various nooks and crannies are romantically kitted out with candles and spotlights. Cotton tablecloths and wrought iron chairs continue the cream, stone and metal theme – a contrast to the colourful Mediterranean cuisine served up here. Go for jewel-bright paella, try the seafood frito or feast upon roasted lamb shoulder, teamed with a spicy Spanish red.
Liquid Bliss
The honesty bar in the kitchenette is a well-stocked delight. Rustle up your own cocktail with all the trimmings (or sample wine from the family vineyard), jot down your tipple in the notepad and meander into the living room to sip your drink fireside.
Experience the Extraordinary
A fan of Michael Douglas? Visit the actor’s love-letter to Mallorca (where he has had a holiday home for over 20 years) a cultural project called Costa Nord (+34 971 612 425) on Avenida Palma. Costa Nord has heaps of local-life exhibits and a multi-screen film (narrated by Douglas of course) detailing the history of Mallorca’s North coast. Finish with a meal at the Costa Nord restaurant, for generous portions of A-list-worthy eats. Alternatively, follow in the footsteps of Chopin and his lover George Sand, with a visit to the Cartuja de Valldemossa monastery (www.valldemossa.com). This 14th-century sanctuary was a temporary home to the musician and writer; today it houses the Municipal Museum (look out for exhibits of 15th–20th-century art) and the tourist office. Nearby Deià is also well worth a visit, boasting some of the island’s best views and eateries.
Transportation
Planes
Fly to Palma de Mallorca Airport (also known as Son Sant Joan), which is served by British Airways (www.ba.com), EasyJet (www.easyjet.com) or Monarch Airlines (www.monarch.co.uk). You can hire a car here, or pick up a taxi from just outside the airport. If you’re driving, a map will be useful for finding the hotel itself, but you should start out from the airport by following signs for the MA-20 (the Via de Cintura).
Trains
Road travel is easiest option; the nearest station is 17km away in Palma. Look out for the antique train that runs between Palma and Sóller, offering spectacular views of the Sierra de Tramuntana mountains.
Automobiles
The hotel has free parking, and a car will be helpful when it comes to exploring the Mallorcan countryside; pick one up at the airport, where many of the international companies are represented.
