Faustino Gran

A 16th-century palace a short walk from the port of Ciutadella, with a hammam carved into an ancient grotto and Studio Putman interiors that let the original curved doorways and vaulted ceilings do the talking. This 24-room boutique hotel holds a Michelin Key. Splurge on a higher-category room, where skylights and private patios make the minimalist approach feel like an edit rather than an oversight. Minorca is quieter than its neighbors, which is rather the point.
