Hotel Creu de Tau Art & Spa brings a rare sense of occasion to Capdepera: a sensitively restored former convent where weathered stone, sandstone details, wrought iron and old window arches meet calm, contemporary interiors. The scale is part of its appeal, with lofty ceilings, generous windows and light-filled spaces, while the chapel and handsome architecture preserve the building’s historic character. Rooms are designed with the same polished eye for detail, from beautiful finishes to thoughtful practical touches such as full-length mirrors.
Set in Capdepera in northeast Majorca, the hotel is a strong choice for travellers who want village character rather than a standard beach-resort setting. Its elevated outdoor pool and terrace sit beside a mature oak forest, offering privacy and wide-open views across the island. For slower days, the 202-square-metre spa has an indoor pool with water features, hot tub, sauna, Turkish bath and treatment menu. It suits couples, design-minded guests and anyone seeking a serene base with a distinctly Mallorcan atmosphere.
Guests are especially taken with the convent conversion, describing the architecture, rooms and pool area as standout features. The peaceful setting and attentive pool service also earn warm mentions, with the royal suite and terrace often singled out for an extra-special stay.
