Opened in 2011, this hotel (the first new build to open in Formentera in many years) is elegant and sophisticated with a laidback vibe, thanks to the use of a pared-back palette and natural materials (light wood, sandstone) throughout. With just 18 rooms, pool area, spa and sauna, and restaurant with a Mediterranean menu, it’s the perfect blend of old world-meets-new world.

Top Tip:

It’s worth visiting Es Marès even if you’re not staying overnight. Book in for a massage or facial; you can also pay for access to the spa and sauna facilities in 90-minute blissful blocks.
