Sentido Fido Punta del Mar Hotel & Spa is a luxurious adult-only resort situated on the west coast of Majorca. Set within the quiet hillside town of Santa Ponsa, far away from the bustling city, it's the perfect choice for a couples retreat. 35km from Palma Mallorca Airport, the hotel has two glistening outdoor pools, with direct access to the sea and panoramic views of the turquoise waters. You’ll feel like you're in total paradise as you grab a drink from the swim up bar, before soaking up that balmy Spanish sunshine on one of the plush canopy beds.

Only a 10 minute walk from the soft white sands of Santa Ponsa beach, lose yourself in the calm waters of the bay or venture out to sea on the kayak or jet skis. Located in the central part of town, the long sandy stretch also offers a great variety of shops, supermarkets and restaurants. Home to the clubbing strip, Ramon de Montcada, you can party in Santa Ponsa until the sun comes up. Or just sit back and watch one of the many live performances in the Square (Los Jardines).

Sentido Fido Punta del Mar has plenty in the way of pampering, with Turkish baths, hydrotherapy showers, as well as a sauna, hot tub and heated indoor pool. Choose from a selection of relaxing massages before chilling out on the sun terrace.

Punta del Mar is in a resort area surrounded by pine-clad mountains and a stretch of coastline close to the seaside town of Santa Ponsa, 11 minutes by car or taxi. There is so much to do from scuba diving around a sunken ship to partying at one of the many fiestas or perusing the authentic local markets. The Puig de Sa Morisca Archaeological Park features 15 archaeological sites within 35 splendid hectares. For the adventurous, we suggest a trip to Jungle Parc where you can navigate a tree circuit, zip wires, ropes and bridges. There are also quad safaris that take riders off-road to explore the thrilling mountain ranges, as well as kayaking tours to the Malgrats Islands where you’ll visit caves and take a dip in beautiful natural pools.

The hotel is also in an excellent location for visiting the Santa Ponsa Yacht Club. Just 3km away, the natural port was constructed more than two thousand years ago and blends into the most picturesque surroundings. Watch the yachts coming in and grab a bite to eat from the exceptional restaurants.

Palma is 22km from the hotel on the south coast and is the island's capital. As well as plenty of places to eat and drink, the town is rich in history and culture, from the Gothic cathedral by the seafront to the ancient passages in the Arab quarter and the historic monuments and architecture in the Old Town. To the west of Palma, you'll find 14th-century Bellver Castle, which sits on top of a hill and offers some of the city's best views.
