Great Hotels of the World is delighted to announce that it has a new member hotel opening in Mallorca, Spain. Nestled on 900-m stretch of seafront on the eastern coast of Mallorca, near to the pretty fishing village and marina of Porto Petro, Blau PortoPetro Beach Resort & Spa is set to open on 18th June this year.
The hotel, with facilities to accommodate families and business travellers alike, will offer over 300 large and comfortable rooms, suites and villas in 12 Mediterranean-style units, each no more than three storeys high. The rooms and suites will be surrounded by a fragrant pine forest that extends to the sandy beach and have been decorated in a stylish neutral palette to emphasise the stunning Mediterranean views. Ten ultra-luxurious villas will boast two bedrooms, a living room, two bathrooms and a fully equipped kitchenette, as well as a private pool or outdoor Jacuzzi and 24-hour butler service.

The hotel offers five restaurants, each of which offers a different style of menu choice, from gourmet, Japanese and Spanish specialities, to the special children’s restaurant and non-smoking buffet restaurant. In addition, two pool bars, a lobby bar and a live piano bar provide an extensive choice of after-hours entertainment, serving cocktails, beverages and light snacks.

Adults and children alike will find plenty of activities on offer at Blau PortoPetro Beach Resort & Spa, due to its extensive range of outdoor opportunities. The hotel provides six floodlit clay tennis courts, a diving centre and sailing school, canoes and peddle boats, air rifle shooting, archery, cycling, trekking, French bowls, four swimming pools, a fitness centre offering a fully equipped gym and classes for aerobics and t’ai chi, two sandy coves with sun beds and parasols, golf at a nearby course and a children’s area with mini club, pools and daily supervised entertainment.
