tretched out on a beachfront Bali bed, bottle of bubbly cooling in the ice bucket, iridescent seascape spread out before you – nothing epitomises laid-back Balearic glitz quite like a day at a beach club. But not all Mallorca beach clubs are created equal. While some are pitched at the yacht-set glitterati looking to lunch on lobster thermidor, others cater to the up-for-it party crowd seeking some daytime shape-throwing to Balearic beats. Whatever experience you’re looking for, you can be sure to find it among these beach clubs on Mallorca.
Gran Folies Beach Club
Set on the edge of the water in the uber-luxe enclave of Cala Llamp, it’s no surprise Gran Folies is among the swankiest of beach clubs on Mallorca. It’s also one of the island’s longest-running, attracting a well-heeled crowd since first opening in the seventies. An outstanding menu of Mediterranean fare marks it out as one of the best for dining, while its snazzy seafront pool is the perfect spot to soak up the soaringly spectacular surroundings.
Puro Illetas
While there are two Puro beach clubs on the island, most agree the one overlooking the beautifully bijou Illetas is the better of the pair. The Puro Group’s signature white-on-cream aesthetics set the tone to island chic, but without the background throb of Balearic beat to disturb the serenity. There’s no swimming pool either, but guests have direct access to a small, scenic bay to cool off in. A decent menu mixes Miami, Marrakech and Melbourne influences, plus pampering comes in the form of sea-view massages.
