Hostal Dragonera sits right by the sea in Sant Elm. It's a
friendly, spotless pick, with great views and a nicely chilled vibe. Rooms are smallish
and spartan but clean and light; you'll get the most out of staying here if you take a room
with a balcony for sea views (the outlay is about €10 extra).

Pablo and his family are welcoming hosts at this family-run abode, a
block back from the water in Port d'Andratx. The rooms are simple but immaculate, with
occasional antique furnishings and balconies or terraces - some with sea views. Filled
with cacti and jasmine, the garden is a quiet escape in this busy summer port.
