Mallorca’s first art resort has just opened with the aim of bringing art closer to nature.
On 31 May, Es Revellar Art Resort – the island’s first art resort – opened the doors of its art collection to the guests occupying the property’s 12 exclusive rooms and suites, or its two villas.
Under the "art resort" concept, Es Revellar Art Resort opened at the end of last month with the aim of bringing art closer to nature, allowing guests to appreciate the collection in the peaceful setting of a painstakingly restored 600 year-old Mallorcan country estate, occupying 76,000sqm. The property is set in spectacular gardens full of works of art, paths, sculptures, marble columns, ethnic artworks, antiques, botanical species, palm trees, a pine grove and countless nooks and crannies, allowing guests to submerge themselves in the purest Mediterranean essence.
An art centre with guest rooms and a large variety of outdoor and indoor spaces offering many possibilities for events, Es Revellar is probably the only exhibition of land art (a form of contemporary art which involves using physical landscapes to create art, forcing people to view the art in context, and taking the provenance of art out of the museum and into the outside world) in the Mediterranean, featuring what is probably one of the most important collections of primitive art, among many other treauses. Here, guests feel at home, since they can enjoy a unique and personal experience – a luxury only available to those occupying Es Revellar’s 12 unique rooms and suites, or its two villas.
All the rooms have been individually decorated in an eclectic style melding with the personal touch that the interior decorators have lent them on carefully choosing each object, antique and artwork, thus inviting guests to live a part of their history and creating a rustic but refined ambience perfectly combined with maximum comfort and modernity. Each of Es Revellar’s 12 guest rooms and suites, whether it be deluxe garden suite or a garden room, features a porch or terrace, direct access to the exterior and staggering views of the gardens.
Likewise, Es Revellar serves traditional cuisine, based on seasonal, local island produce, in the dining room of the Cocina del Huerto, surrounded by vineyards, fruit trees and aromatic plants. After dinner, guests can then retire to the complex’s lounge-bar for a drink. Prepared with local produce, breakfast is also served in the Cocina del Huerto, a space with large windows affording views of the kitchen garden. At midday, when the heat sets in, there is a snack-bar service for those guests using the pool or strolling in the gardens.
