At Son Blanc, a boutique farmhouse on the island of Menorca, every detail is calm and considered. Natural materials are at the heart of the hotel’s muted interiors, creating a contemporary twist on Balearic design and a link to the rural landscape. Outside, this is matched with thoughtful landscaping which repeats rosemary and lavender bushes to great effect. It’s impossible to not relax as you explore Son Blanc’s stunning artisanal interiors and 130 hectares of grounds.

Guests can follow trails through the pine forest to scenic view points on wild cliffs, unwind at the pool bar or take part in a yoga or pottery class. Breakfast is unforgettable with an artfully arranged spread of local cheese, meats, sobrasada (local soft cured sausage) and fruit.

Son Blanc is off the beaten track, reached by a private road. While located in the most idyllic setting in the Menorcan countryside, the hotel is only a 20-minute drive from Menorca’s capital, Mahón.

Son Blanc is an effortlessly luxurious island destination for holistic wellbeing. The dusk light here is pure magic – we challenge you not to leave floating on a cloud.
