Hotel Torralbenc, Menorca

Pros

• Enjoy a charming stay on a beautiful Menorcan farm, as the rooms, cottages, and shared spaces utilize renovated buildings, including the main house and stables.
• The hotel's surroundings are idyllic, as you're near other farms and vineyards and have distant sea views from some of the rooms and the restaurant's garden terrace.
• You won't be too far (a six-minute drive) from Cala'n Porter, a charming coastal town with a beach and viewpoints overlooking the sea from atop cliffs. 
• The outdoor saltwater pool is a nice perk, and you can also book spa treatments like massages.
• Torralbenc Restaurant is an on-site eatery serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, utilizing Menorcan products and traditional flavors. 
• There's a gym hosting yoga and aerobic sessions.
• Guests can sip wine in the wine cellar or wander around the property with its beautiful gardens, chapel, jogging path, and walking trail.

Cons

• The hotel is popular with weddings and can get busy (and a little noisy) on the weekends. 

Authenticity

Hotel Torralbenc lets you stay in a beautiful Finca, a restored farmhouse with rustic details, a wine cellar, and its own little chapel. And although you'll be in the countryside lined with twisting roads, stone walls, vineyards, and distant sea views, you'll still enjoy amenities like a pool, spa services, and a restaurant serving traditional Menorcan cuisine.  

Location

Surrounded by farmland, shrubby forests, and vineyards, Hotel Torralbenc offers a unique stay just outside Cala'n Porter. A six-minute drive takes you to the town center with its eateries and shops. Continue driving or enjoy a nice walk out to the beach or viewpoints along the cliffs. A pleasant walking path crosses the property, leading to Taula de Torrelisar, one of the island's many archeological landmarks.

Rooms & Bathrooms

Though the hotel has rustic and rural origins, you'll enjoy polished, comfortable, and inviting rooms. All feature soft, neutral tones with charming elements like beamed ceilings, shuttered doors, and furnished outdoor spaces. Every unit includes a seating area and spacious bathroom, but upgraded rooms add more space and perks like sea views or direct access to the garden or pool. 

Other Highlights

Enjoy relaxing at the outdoor saltwater pool with its terrace lined with sun loungers. You can also spend time in the garden, where you'll find the on-site restaurant. The eatery's terrace looks out over the countryside with sea views. The grounds also feature a charming chapel, wine cellar, yoga sessions, a gym, and spa treatments.
