MALLORCA, A GASTRONOMIC DESTINATION

The island of stars… and Michelin Keys

Being a gastronomic destination is a form of tourism in itself. Combining food, culture, shopping, and heritage is undoubtedly one of the most effective ways to win over travelers when choosing one place over another.

Modena, for instance, has become world-famous not only for its balsamic vinegar but also for hosting Osteria Francescana, the three-Michelin-star restaurant of chef Massimo Bottura, which for several years was ranked as the best in the world by the Michelin Guide.

In this sense, Mallorca stands out with an exceptional gastronomic offering. Beyond its cathedral and its breathtaking landscapes—between sea and mountains—the island boasts true culinary gems well worth discovering.

Many luxury hotels have opened their restaurants to the general public, entrusting their menus to internationally renowned chefs. Nowadays, many properties strive not only for the coveted Michelin stars but also for the newly introduced Michelin Keys—a recognition launched in 2024 by the guide to certify excellence in hospitality. The highest honor is three keys, and Mallorca already has 14 award-winning establishments with this distinction.

With just over 3,600 km² and nearly 800,000 inhabitants of various nationalities, Mallorca proves that big things can come in small packages: the Balearic Islands have 10 Michelin-starred restaurants—nine with one star and one with two.

From traditional taverns to ultra-luxury hotels and avant-garde dining, the island has a long-standing hospitality tradition for every type of visitor. Great food is paired with spectacular nature, charming villages, historic churches, museums, and monuments steeped in culture.

In 2025, Mallorca is more than just a gastronomic hotspot—it stands as an exclusive, elegant destination full of enchanting spots and all the comforts of a major city. Ideal for holidaymakers and those lucky enough to call it home.

Hotel BonSol, with over 70 years of history, remains true to its essence: improving without losing its authenticity. Its mission is to offer warm hospitality, thoughtful cuisine, and a complete experience where relaxation, good food, and the Mediterranean Sea are the main attractions.

No Michelin stars or keys for now—but we promise warmth, sea views, and more than a few reasons to smile.
