About Santanyi

Founded in 1300, the pretty southern Mallorcan town of Santanyí has a long and rich history. Now a lovely destination for a relaxed holiday on Spain’s most famous island, it boasts some very appealing accommodation options. Chosen for their attractive location, style and amenities, our pick of the best places to stay in Santanyí await.

Discover the sun-drenched stone streets of the town centre on foot, admire heritage buildings and pop into the lively restaurants and cafés of the pedestrianised zone for an aromatic coffee or a fresh Mediterranean lunch. The twice-weekly market, held on Wednesdays and Saturdays, is brilliant for picking up local handicrafts as well as fruit, vegetables and meats and cheeses. It’s not to be missed!

Outdoorsy adventurers will find ample opportunities to hike and horse ride in the surrounding countryside, whilst keen golfers can play a round or two on the island's world-class courses. Head to the coast for beach days at Cala Ferrera, S’Almunia, Es Caló des Moro and popular Es Trenc, or to dive, fish and sail on gorgeous azure waters. The Cala Mondragó Natural Park, with its craggy outcrops and fine sandy beaches, is another highlight. Speak to the teams at the best places to stay in Santanyí to arrange day trips and excursions.
