There’s something extremely energizing about the beach. Maybe it’s the sound of crashing waves, the invigorating ocean scent, or the calming effect of the colour blue. Exercising in an outdoor setting has a greater impact on our physical and mental health. Being surrounded by water helps us to relax way more than a stuffy gym would.
There are a ton of different ways to exercise on the beach. Swimming is the most obvious choice – taking a few laps in the ocean is a great full body workout. Not in the mood to get wet? You can’t go wrong with walking or running. Jogging on the sand is more challenging than running on concrete, but it’s better for your joints. Working out on the sand adds a ton of resistance to any exercise – whether it’s running, volleyball, or circuit training.
If you’re ready to relax and rejuvenate at the beachside, here are four beachfront hotels in Majorca that are perfect for those looking to workout on their holiday:
Valparaiso Hotel
This charming hotel is located on the Mallorca’s east coast, with beautiful views of the Mediterranean Sea. It offers direct access to Cala Domingo Beach – which is perfect for swimming, running, and cliff diving. The hotel has an outdoor swimming pool, a gym, and a garden area for walking and meditation. If you want to give your muscles a break, the hotel has a complete spa circuit, including a Jacuzzi, massage treatments, contrast showers, a sauna, and a frozen swimming pool (perfect for muscle recovery). The comfortable rooms have views of the sea, Wi-Fi, satellite TV, and a private terrace.
Inturotel Esmeralda Park
Set on the seafront of Cala Esmeralda Beach, Inturotel Esmeralda Park is great if you want to head straight to the shore to work on your beach body. You’ll be tempted to take a dip in the beautiful azure waters, sheltered by a long thin cove to keep the water calm and clear. It’s also a 15-minute bike ride from unspoilt beaches and breathtaking coves such as Cala Sa Nau. The hotel offers spacious apartments, equipped with a kitchenette, a dining area, Wi-Fi, and a satellite TV. There are also two swimming pools, a tennis court, a gym, and a wellness zone.

This 4-star hotel boasts 101 comfortable rooms – all overlooking the Mediterranean Sea – with comfortable beds, air conditioning, a balcony, and satellite TV. If you’re not in the mood to get sand between your toes, you can work on your serve at the tennis court, go for a dip in the swimming pool, or take advantage of the mountain bike and snorkelling equipment rental facilities.
Ferrer Concord
One of the most equipped beachfront hotels in Majorca, The Ferrer Concord Hotel & Spa is in a perfect location for a beach and cycling holiday.
