New and freshly renovated: what the luxury hotels in Menorca offer you today
Among the newest luxury hotels in Menorca is the Villa Le Blanc Gran Melía Menorca. Meliá converted the former beach hotel at Sant Tomàs and reopened it in August 2022, whitewashed in Mediterranean style with patios, arches and porches. What that means for you: 159 rooms, 45 of them suites, some with a private pool, in a house run carbon-neutral with geothermal energy, biomass and solar panels.
Fontenille Menorca Torre Vella · Balearic IslandsThe dining line-up has been reshaped since the opening, too. Today the Villa Le Blanc Gran Melía Menorca serves dinner at La Terraza del Balear, all-day dining at the lobby café Le Blanc Grand Cafe and grilled dishes at Nivi, plus a Rooftop Bar and a Pool Bar with concierge service.
On the estate of the Fontenille Menorca Torre Vella, vines have been growing since 2019, the same year geothermal cooling was added. Today a solar park on the grounds supplies about half of the electricity, water comes from the estate’s own well, and two electric cars are ready for your excursions.

Two of the three hotels have a pool for all guests; at the third, a private pool comes with the Cottage. If you want more from your 5-star hotel in Menorca than a day on the beach, you will also find a hammam, open-air massages and yoga among holm oaks.

Dining in Menorca’s luxury hotels: embers, estate wine and fish by the beach
None of the restaurants holds a Michelin star, but at the Torralbenc Alaior Menorca Michelin-starred chef Gorka Txapartegi advises the kitchen: dishes are cooked over embers with vegetables, eggs, olive oil and wine from the estate. The restaurant sits in the former harvest building, its terrace looks over olive trees and vines to the sea, and at sunset there is a six-course dinner.
At the Fontenille Menorca Torre Vella, Siempreviva cooks in the listed patio of the finca: sharing dishes, local charcuterie, fish from the oven, meat from the brazier and caldereta de langosta, the island’s lobster stew. The menu changes daily with the garden, and it is open from 8am to 10pm, to outside guests too.
At no extra cost: you pay the same rate as booking direct with the hotel – the suitespot benefits come on top, free of charge.
On the beach at Sant Tomàs, the Villa Le Blanc Gran Melía Menorca serves fresh fish, rice dishes and Menorcan specialities in the evening at La Terraza del Balear. Nivi brings grilled dishes with an Italian touch and, in the morning, the breakfast buffet with show cooking; for an aperitif at sunset, head up to the Rooftop Bar.
An aperitif on the cliffs
In season, the Fontenille Menorca Torre Vella invites you for an aperitif on its private cliffs and for dinner in the vineyards, and at the Torralbenc Alaior Menorca you can reserve a private dinner in the cave. Our travel advisors are happy to request both together with your room.
Luxury hotels in Menorca with a history: fincas, vineyards and a beach hotel with a new life
The history of the luxury hotels in Menorca is mostly written in the countryside. The Fontenille Menorca Torre Vella is a 17th-century finca of pale sandstone on 200 hectares of olive groves, vineyards and more than a kilometre of private cliffs. Frédéric Biousse and Guillaume Foucher, founders of the Fontenille Collection, brought it back to life as an organic agroturismo.
The Torralbenc Alaior Menorca was a traditional Menorcan farm estate with buildings from the 19th and early 20th centuries. It was bought in a neglected state in 2005 and restored over several years; it opened as a hotel in 2013, and the first vintage from its own winery followed in 2016. There is even a taula on the land, a prehistoric monument of the Talayotic culture.

Sea or countryside? In Menorca you can have both.

A few nights on the finca, a few by the beach: our travel advisors will happily plan the order with you.
