American actor Richard Gere and his wife Alejandra Silva have selected the prestigious Four Seasons Resort Mallorca at Formentor for their 2024 summer family holiday. The couple, accompanied by their children Alexander and James, along with Silva's son Albert, stayed at this luxurious Mallorcan establishment where standard room rates range from 1,000 to 2,400 euros per night, whilst suites can exceed 2,600 euros per night. The resort opened its doors last August following an ambitious 70 million euro renovation.
The project, led by the renowned Estudio Lamela, aimed to reposition this iconic hotel within the international luxury tourism segment. The establishment, which began operations in 1961, has maintained its commitment to excellence and continuous innovation throughout its history, adapting to new trends in the high-end hospitality sector. The renovation included aesthetic updates, implementation of energy-efficient systems, optimisation of thermal and acoustic insulation, and careful restoration of the original façade.
The Four Seasons Resort Mallorca is situated in a privileged natural setting on the Formentor peninsula, in northern Mallorca. This combination of nature and exclusivity has made the establishment one of the preferred destinations for celebrities and personalities seeking privacy and luxury. Guests have access to numerous activities to connect with the surrounding nature, from hiking routes along the peninsula's impressive cliffs to bicycle excursions and various water sports options.

The complex includes a comprehensive spa where guests can enjoy exclusive treatments and relaxation therapies inspired by Mediterranean techniques. The facilities feature indoor and outdoor pools, private treatment rooms, and relaxation areas with sea views. The hotel's wellness programme is designed to offer a holistic experience combining physical exercise, nutrition, and personal care.
