“We had a genuinely excellent stay at the Hotel de Mar Gran Meliá adults-only property just outside Palma. The hotel (known locally as the "chocolate box hotel") sits right on the water with direct sea frontage — rocky coves, palm trees, and that deep Mediterranean blue at every turn.
Room & interiors. Recently renovated to a high standard: warm oak floors, sculptural ceiling fan, a low-slung sofa, and clean Scandinavian-meets-Mediterranean styling. What impressed us most was the bed orientation — positioned to face directly out to the terrace and sea, so you wake up to sunrise over the water rather than the usual side-on layout. The in-room bar cabinet is beautifully fitted with proper wine glasses, Nespresso, a Krups kettle, local snacks, and a minibar.
The bathroom is large, finished in textured stone tiles with double basins and a generous walk-in rainfall shower. Daily turndown service and complimentary bottled water throughout.
Pools & outdoor space. Multiple distinct pool areas rather than one crowded hub — a sleek dark-tiled lap pool set against the hotel facade, a freeform main pool lined with cabanas, and a natural rock pool carved into the coastline with sunbeds right at the water's edge. The gardens are well maintained with lavender beds, sculpted hedging, and mature pines — there's genuine space between guests, which makes a real difference. Sunbeds are Alberta Ferretti-branded, which is a nice touch.
Food & facilities. Breakfast is a proper Spanish buffet — extensive, good quality, and best enjoyed at a terrace table overlooking the sea. The restaurant, Bombon by Alberta Ferretti, delivers nicely for evening desserts and drinks on the balcony.
The spa and gym are solid: multiple shower experiences, steam room, sauna, and hot tubs.
Location. Illetes is quiet and residential — an oasis compared to central Palma — but it's only 15–20 minutes by taxi if you want the old town, restaurants, or the harbour.
The Hotel de Mar Gran Meliá, Illetes, Mallorca is well-suited for couples looking for a calm, well-run property with genuine seafront access and design interiors. We would return for a relaxing sunshine break.”

“A truly relaxing luxury stay in Mallorca. The rooms were clean, spacious, and beautifully designed, with a balcony that opened directly to stunning sea views — definitely one of the highlights of the experience.
The entire property has a calm and premium atmosphere, perfect for unwinding. The pool area, bar, and wellness centre all add to the relaxing vibe and make the stay feel complete.
The staff were extremely helpful and attentive throughout, always ready to assist with any request. One thing to note is that certain amenities like toiletries, an iron, and a table are available on demand rather than readily placed in the room. However, the minibar is conveniently included in the room.
Overall, De Mar Gran Meliá Mallorca offers a peaceful and luxurious escape with excellent service and breathtaking surroundings
It's bit over pricy but it's worth each penny.”
