Menorca excels at beautifully designed hotels, more specifically, beautifully converted farm stays (fincas, to the native tongue). It is a creative island after all, and Morvedra Nou is all about leaving the daily chaos behind and stepping into the breezy peace and quiet of its olive groves and sun-soaked vineyards. No special moment is too difficult for the team. Dinner in the meadows? Chartering a boat to explore the coast? It's all easy, and done with a smile. The farmhouse interiors are laid back, quick to drop in and out of as you dip in the pool and watch the famous Menorcan sunsets from the stone stargazing platform or from the outdoor restaurant (and those striped tablecloths).
