Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants, part of IHG Hotels & Resorts' Luxury & Lifestyle Collection, has announced its first resort hotel in Europe is getting ready to welcome its first guests later this year. Located in Mallorca, Kimpton Aysla Mallorca will be available year-round, emulating a haven of luxury and wellness and representing an essential step in Kimpton's European expansion. True to its Mediterranean roots, the hotel reimagines the concept of resort luxury with a progressive vision where active leisure meets total relaxation.
Nestled in the town of Santa Ponsa in Calviá, Kimpton Aysla Mallorca will be 14 kilometres from Palma de Mallorca and 20 minutes from the airport. Guests will have the privilege of being a stone's throw away from some of the island's most prestigious leisure clubs, such as the Mallorca Country Club, a regular practice ground for some of the world's top tennis players, and Golf Santa Ponsa, a large golf complex with two 18-hole PGA European tour courses, a 9-hole course, and a driving range.
All Kimpton hotels strive to establish their own identity, inspired by the unique elements of the location through its design and guest experience. Designed by acclaimed local architect Guillermo Reynés, Kimpton Aysla Mallorca includes 79-rooms distributed around central Majorcan-style patios. Every detail throughout the property has been curated to create a relaxing and peaceful environment. From neutral tones and natural materials to the splashes of bright turquoise touches in soft furnishings and textiles, all elements come together to reflect the hotel's island surroundings. Rooms boast large floor-to-ceiling windows with private balconies, a rain shower, a separate bathtub, and complimentary access to its luxurious 900-square-metre spa.
Guestroom
As with all Kimpton hotels, the service at Kimpton Aysla Mallorca is based on a sincere and warm human connection. This is brought to life through several touches at the hotel, like evening social hour, where guests gather and socialise. The hotel will also feature one-of-kind bookable workshops with resident artisans on the island, created to educate guests about local traditions. For example, guests can visit a workshop that handcrafts bespoke Majorcan artisanal shoes, learn about the island's important crafts since the 19th century, and take a tailor-made pair home with them.
Kimpton Aysla Mallorca showcases incredible onsite facilities with an extensive program of fitness and wellness activities like road cycling, morning workouts, guided meditation, and yoga lessons, as well as two outdoor pools. Both pools boast panoramic views of the landscape and offer easy access to ZAYT Pool Kitchen & Garden Deli, where guests can indulge in an array of fresh fish, meat, or vegetables cooked to order. One of the pools draws inspiration from the island's famous white sand beaches, surrounded by real sand, recreating that shoreline feel. Meanwhile, the onsite spa, Maison CODAGE Paris, is home to a stunning indoor pool, mud baths, sauna, salt cave, and seven treatment rooms with exclusively formulated treatments.

Kimpton Aysla Mallorca will also house two restaurants and two bars, set in warm and welcoming spaces. It will be the gathering places loved by locals and hotel guests alike: ZAYT Pool Kitchen & Garden Deli and SABA Restaurant, Bodega & Bar.
SABA Restaurant, Bodega & Bar
SABA Restaurant incorporates locally sourced Spanish ingredients into timeless Southeast Asian dishes. Among the dining room sits an open kitchen with 14 seats where guests can dine as they watch chefs create their take on sushi and teppanyaki.
SABA Bar is nestled in the restaurant by the entrance. With its indoor meets outdoor layout, guests can enjoy an aperitif all year round in addition to a selection of Spanish tapas. During the day, the bar will offer coffee, tea, and sweet treats before converting into the destination for reconnecting with friends and family over cocktails, beer on tap, and wine from the adjoining wine cellar.
