S’Enclova Petit Hotel

S’Enclova Petit Hotel, a hidden gem on the picturesque island of Menorca, perfectly marries local charm with a modern, almost austere aesthetic that we absolutely adore. As a quaint, family-run establishment, it offers a warm, intimate environment that feels like a second home. Each room is tastefully decorated with a simplicity that underscores comfort and style. We found ourselves drawn to the idyllic courtyard, a serene refuge for those afternoons when the Mediterranean sun became too intense. This delightful spot is perfect for unwinding and soaking up the tranquil atmosphere after a day of exploring Menorca’s stunning landscapes and cultural treasures.

Can Sastre

Can Sastre in Ciutadella beautifully converts a 17th-century bakery into a boutique hotel, brimming with character. Just steps from the cathedral and the port, this terracotta-hued retreat maintains its historic charm with the original bakery counter and vintage sweet cutters on display. Staying here felt like stepping into a serene sanctuary amidst the town’s bustle. Our cosy room blended modern touches with rustic beams, offering comfort and style. Breakfast in the basement was a unique highlight, complete with local specialities. The personal, attentive service throughout my stay made Can Sastre a memorable escape – one that truly captures the essence of boutique hospitality.
