An Oasis of Tranquillity at Can Aulí, Pollensa, Mallorca

Can Aulí is more than a hotel — it’s an homage to the island’s culture, where sustainability and local artistry take center stage.

Nestled in the heart of Pollensa, a quaint town in Mallorca’s north, Can Aulí is a sanctuary designed for those looking to embrace the slow rhythms of life. From the moment you step through the doors of this 17th-century mansion, it’s clear that this adults-only retreat is dedicated to relaxation at its finest.

In the lobby, a striking blend of ancient stone walls and sleek modern touches sets the tone. The space feels warm and inviting, with soft linens, sofas, and rugs, and designer lighting blending rustic charm with contemporary elegance. Outside, the tranquil courtyard beckons, offering a serene pool that perfectly complements the calming atmosphere.

The hotel’s rich history is woven into its design. Once the home of Pollensa’s village surgeon, Can Aulí’s magnificent arches and winding staircases reflect its cenƒturies-old heritage while blending effortlessly with modern luxury. Every detail, from the exposed stone walls to contemporary accents, celebrates the essence of Mallorca, embracing its artistic legacy and natural beauty.

During our stay, we stayed in a premium room decorated in a soothing palette of greys, beiges, and creams. The minimalist yet inviting design, with wooden furnishings and natural textures, creates a serene space to unwind. The king-sized bed and large walk-in rain shower enhance the sense of comfort, making the room feel like a private retreat.

Breakfast at Can Aulí is a celebration of Mallorca’s culinary richness. Each morning, guests can enjoy a spread of locally sourced, organic ingredients that bring the island’s flavors to life. Homemade jams, breads, and cakes smell amazing. It’s a dining experience that feels both intimate and indulgent as you are welcomed into the open kitchen.

Art is an integral part of Can Aulí’s identity. Throughout the hotel, works by local artists, including Jaume Roig, add depth and character. His striking installation in the lobby captures the island’s natural beauty, forging a connection between the interior spaces and the surrounding landscape. From ceramics to textiles, each piece has been thoughtfully chosen to reflect the creative spirit of Mallorca.

The hotel also features a dedicated wellness area, complete with a hammam, sensory shower, and treatment room designed for deep relaxation. Whether unwinding here or soaking up the peaceful atmosphere by the pool, every corner of Can Aulí encourages guests to slow down and recharge.

Pollensa itself is a captivating blend of history and charm, making it the ideal setting for the hotel. The cobbled streets, honey-hued stone buildings, and intimate cafés invite slow exploration. Whether strolling through the narrow alleys, dining at a local restaurant, or gazing at the Sierra de Tramuntana mountains, time seems to slow down, immersing you in the town’s peaceful energy.

The area is an ideal base for discovering Mallorca’s natural wonders. The nearby beaches of Puerto Pollensa and Cala Carbo offer the perfect escape for a day by the sea. Whether hiking through the surrounding mountains or cycling along scenic routes, there’s something for every nature lover.

Can Aulí isn’t just a place to stay — it’s an invitation to disconnect from the everyday and immerse yourself in the beauty of Mallorca. Whether lounging in the courtyard, indulging in a leisurely breakfast, or simply soaking in the tranquil atmosphere, every moment here feels like a luxurious escape.
