A noble retreat between history and the Atlantic

Perched high above the mouth of the River Eo in the far west of Asturias, where the region meets Galicia and the Atlantic opens onto Spain’s greenest coastline, Vestige Palacio de Figueras is a place of rare presence and quiet grandeur. The 16th-century palace was once the ancestral home of the noble Pardo de Donlebún family and, following an exceptionally careful restoration lasting more than eleven years, has been re-established as a private heritage residence with exclusive guest accommodation. Rather than functioning as a conventional hotel, the palace remains a living historic home, offering guests an authentic connection to architecture, landscape and time.

Design & Atmosphere

The atmosphere of the Palacio is defined by stillness, scale and an understated sense of nobility. Thick stone walls, original fireplaces and soaring ceilings speak of centuries past, while carefully curated furnishings, artworks and natural materials introduce a timeless, contemporary elegance. Nothing feels staged or performative. Instead, the house unfolds at its own pace, creating the sense of being welcomed into a private residence rather than a destination. Expansive windows and terraces frame views of the gardens, the estuary and the open Atlantic beyond.

Rooms & Suites

With just eleven individually designed rooms and suites, Vestige Palacio de Figueras retains an intentionally intimate character. Each accommodation is en suite and balances historic substance with modern comfort, always respecting the original architecture of the house. The two generous master suites offer heightened privacy and space, while all rooms are defined by light, refined materials and views across gardens, water or coastline. Staying here feels less like a hotel experience and more like inhabiting a noble home, quietly and unhurriedly.

Cuisine

Dining at the Palacio follows a private, bespoke approach shaped entirely around the guests. There is no formal restaurant concept; instead, meals are created to order, often inspired by local produce and seasonal ingredients. From relaxed breakfasts to intimate dinners and personalised menus, the culinary experience reflects the spirit of the house itself – discreet, generous and deeply personal, more reminiscent of a refined country residence than a hotel.

Location & Experiences

The setting makes Vestige Palacio de Figueras an ideal retreat for travellers seeking nature, culture and tranquillity in equal measure. Asturias’ green coastline, small fishing villages, untouched beaches and gentle hinterland invite slow exploration, while the estate itself offers gardens, terraces and a pool for moments of quiet retreat. The Palacio is also an exceptional setting for private celebrations, weddings, retreats or exclusive gatherings, where discretion, atmosphere and historic depth are paramount.

Why We Love It

Because Vestige Palacio de Figueras is not a place of spectacle, but of substance. A house that does not display its history, but lives it – offering guests the rare privilege of becoming part of it, if only for a while. Discreet, cultivated and deeply rooted in its surroundings.

The Art of Retreat

A place of stillness, space and timeless elegance.

Hidden within the untouched landscape of southwest Menorca, Vestige Santa Ana is a historic 18th-century estate reimagined as an exclusive private luxury residence. Set within more than 200 hectares of Mediterranean nature, the property offers complete privacy and a profound sense of calm, where heritage and contemporary comfort exist in perfect balance.

Architecture & Atmosphere

Vestige Santa Ana is not a conventional hotel, but a private retreat designed for sole use. The meticulous restoration preserves the soul and architectural integrity of the original finca while introducing a refined, understated luxury. Natural stone, wood, soft textures and a muted colour palette define the interiors, creating an atmosphere that feels grounded, effortless and deeply connected to its surroundings.

Living Between Indoors and Outdoors

Generous living spaces flow seamlessly onto terraces, courtyards and gardens, blurring the boundary between interior and exterior life. The rhythm of the house follows the Mediterranean climate, encouraging long outdoor meals, slow afternoons by the pool and quiet moments shaped by light, silence and open space. Vestige Santa Ana offers a setting equally suited to shared experiences and personal retreat.

Location & Natural Surroundings

One of the estate’s most remarkable qualities is its proximity to the coast. The iconic Cala Macarella and Cala Macarelleta, among Menorca’s most beautiful beaches, are within walking distance. Crystal-clear waters, fine sand and protected nature make them ideal for unhurried days by the sea, while the finca itself remains a secluded sanctuary far removed from any sense of bustle.

Who This Place Is For

Vestige Santa Ana is created for travellers who value discretion, authenticity and a deep connection to nature. Families, groups of friends or creative retreats will find a place where time slows and quality takes precedence over excess. A dedicated concierge service can arrange bespoke experiences, from private chefs to tailored excursions, always in harmony with the calm and considered spirit of the house.

A private palatial residence — not a hotel, but a way of living.

Vestige Miramar is not a hotel.
It is an exclusively rentable historic mansion in the heart of Palma de Mallorca. Located next to the cathedral and overlooking the harbour, this 18th-century palatial residence offers a rare blend of cultural heritage, absolute privacy and discreet luxury. A private home for those who value space, autonomy and authenticity.

Set in the historic centre of Palma de Mallorca, just steps from La Seu Cathedral, the old town, the marina and the city’s finest restaurants, galleries and boutiques. Despite its central setting, Vestige Miramar remains a calm and secluded urban retreat.

Concept

Vestige Miramar is rented exclusively as a whole. There is no reception, no public restaurant and no shared hotel areas. Instead, guests enjoy the freedom and intimacy of a private mansion, complemented by tailor-made services upon request. It is designed for families, groups of friends or special occasions — for travellers who want to experience Palma as residents, not hotel guests.

Style & Atmosphere

A carefully restored 18th-century city palace where historic architecture meets contemporary elegance. High ceilings, original stone and wood elements, curated artworks and bespoke furniture create a refined yet understated atmosphere. The feeling is residential, calm and cultured — more private home than hospitality concept.

Rooms & Suites

The mansion offers eight to nine spacious bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, accommodating up to 16–18 guests. Each room is individually designed with high-quality materials, natural light and a restrained colour palette. Selected rooms feature views over the harbour or Palma’s historic rooftops.

Dining

There is no fixed gastronomy concept — only freedom of choice. Guests may use the fully equipped kitchen, arrange private dining with a personal chef or explore Palma’s vibrant culinary scene just outside the door. Dining at Vestige Miramar is personal, flexible and self-curated.

Wellness & Retreat

A heated indoor pool, private gym and quiet relaxation areas offer moments of retreat throughout the year. Wellness here is subtle and private — without schedules, spa menus or staged experiences.

Experiences & Services

Discreet concierge services are available on request, from private city tours and yacht charters to bespoke island experiences. Service adapts to the guests’ rhythm — never the other way around.

Who Is It For?

For travellers who are not looking for a hotel, but for an exclusive residence in the city. Ideal for families, groups of friends, celebrations or extended stays — with an appreciation for design, privacy and cultural depth.
