Hotels in Balearic Islands

The Balearic Islands' artistic heritage goes way back to before the Balearic beat dance wave of the Nineties when Ibiza became the epicentre of global rave culture. You could hardly pick a better place to immerse yourself in European art history. Each successive art epoch left its trace on the Balearic Islands, from the Iron Age Talaiotic Period to Modernism. Ibiza was one of the favoured residences of Surrealist artists in the 1920s. There are plenty of art museums, like Museum Fundación Juan March Palma, housing original works by Picasso and Dali, and Museum de Mallorca for fine art and ceramics. The hugely popular Museum of Contemporary Art (Museum d'Art Contemporani d'Eivissa) is in Ibiza – book in at the Hotel Royal Plaza to be within walking distance.

Palma is famed for its gastronomic culture, Mahon is the laidback city for a relaxing beach holiday, and Ibiza is world-renowned as dance party central.
