From the architect: From here, visitors can look out near and far over the agricultural fields surrounding the property, some of which yield the hotel’s vegetables, eggs, and honey. Somewhere between a hotel and a home, Es Bec d’Aguila combines the conviviality of a vacation house with the services of an upscale hotel.

It provides spaces where people can relax and soak in the calm by themselves, or gather with friends and family around the pool, a delicious meal, a yoga session, or even a pottery course. The environments are soft, luminous, elegant, and authentic; this was accomplished in part through the use of local materials and know-how: dry stone walls, marès stone, white and colored lime, built-in furniture, terracotta, hidráulicos. The mixing of period furniture from England, France, Denmark and Spain create an eclectic space that nevertheless remains rich in its Menorcan influences.
