Background
About Cap Rocat
Cap Rocat was built as a military fortress to watch over the Bay of Palma, and it never served that defensive purpose, the role it was built for simply never came to pass. The building carries National Monument (Heritage Asset) status and sits inside a Protected Natural Area / Natura 2000 site, which meant the conversion into a hotel had to happen under strict heritage rules. Architect Antonio Obrador led that renovation, and the project went on to win international recognition, including a Europa Nostra award. The Balearic tourism register files it at 5-star Gran Luxe under the "hotel rural" category.
