Past Campos, the landscape opens up, the roads become less crowded, and among the dry stone walls stand olive trees, fig trees, pine trees, and a few flocks of sheep. Santany\u00ed lies in the distance. In the afternoon, the sun hangs high over the fields; later, the light softens and the island takes on that golden hue that makes you want to drive around a little longer, even though you\u2019ve long since reached your actual destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s hardly an island where we spend more time than on Mallorca\u2014at least when you look at the past few years. There are good reasons for this. Mallorca has the sea, of course. Then there\u2019s the landscape in the island\u2019s interior, the small towns, the markets, the fincas, the cuisine, and a climate that lets you spend many months of the year outdoors. Above all, though, the island has a pace all its own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the southeast, between Campos and Santany\u00ed, THE V\u00d6LKERS HOUSE\u2014a new destination that embodies this very way of life\u2014will open in August 2026. On a 28-hectare estate, Christian and Ninon V\u00f6lkers have created a country estate that blends architecture, nature, and Argentine equestrian culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Richard Meier was commissioned to design the architecture. The Pritzker Prize laureate is known for his clean, bright buildings and his precise use of light. In Mallorca, his architecture meets a landscape that already provides everything such a design requires. Large windows overlook the fields; the interior and exterior blend seamlessly, and the buildings remain bright and serene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:48px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"791\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"107174\" src=\"https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers213-791x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-107174\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers213-791x1024.jpg 791w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers213-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers213-768x994.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers213-50x65.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers213-1187x1536.jpg 1187w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 791px) 100vw, 791px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"107206\" src=\"https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/PUY-CERMENO-6-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-107206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/PUY-CERMENO-6-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/PUY-CERMENO-6-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/PUY-CERMENO-6-1-50x67.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/PUY-CERMENO-6-1-1600x2133.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/PUY-CERMENO-6-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/PUY-CERMENO-6-1-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/PUY-CERMENO-6-1-scaled.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"791\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"107189\" src=\"https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers353-791x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-107189\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers353-791x1024.jpg 791w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers353-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers353-768x994.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers353-50x65.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers353-1600x2071.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers353-1187x1536.jpg 1187w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers353-1582x2048.jpg 1582w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers353-scaled.jpg 1854w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 791px) 100vw, 791px\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1601\" data-id=\"107180\" src=\"https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers360-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-107180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers360-scaled.jpg 2400w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers360-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers360-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers360-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers360-50x33.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers360-1600x1067.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers360-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.secret-classics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/251022_Volkers360-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:48px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The property comprises four houses with a total of 15 suites. Each has its own garden. The small number of rooms keeps the place intimate and personal. Anyone who spends a few days here will experience the property more like a private country estate than a traditional hotel. The daily routine naturally follows the rhythm of the place. In the morning, the view stretches out over the fields. Afterward, perhaps breakfast outdoors, a horseback ride, or a morning by the pool. At noon, lunch quickly turns into a longer stay at the table. In the evening, warm light bathes the grounds.

aspect of the project. Horses play a central role at THE V\u00d6LKERS HOUSE. The estate includes an equestrian center with nearly 100 horses, a polo field, and a grandstand. From there, visitors can watch the game while the Mallorcan landscape stretches out behind them. The combination of polo and Mallorca may seem unusual at first. At the same time, it fits surprisingly well with an estate of this scale. Horses are part of the history of many large estates, and in Argentina, polo is part of a deeply rooted culture. At THE V\u00d6LKERS HOUSE, this tradition is blended with the island\u2019s Mediterranean surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\"

guest\u2019s individual needs. It was curated by Celia Forner Venturi, the founder of the skincare brand ALLEVEN. The spa offers skin and body treatments, complemented by fitness activities and personalized experiences in Mallorca. What you choose to do during your stay is largely up to your own pace. This could be a trip to Santany\u00ed, a day at the beach, or a horseback ride across the estate. Just as easily, you might spend an entire afternoon right where you sat for breakfast that morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That is perhaps the most interesting idea behind THE V\u00d6LKERS HOUSE. Mallorca needs little in the way of added drama. The island provides its own. The late-afternoon light, the fields around Campos, the proximity to the sea, and the long evenings set the rhythm anyway. Richard Meier\u2019s architecture gives this place a clear form. The Argentine equestrian culture lends it its character. The kitchen, the garden, and the spa bring the concept back to the everyday experience of a stay. Ultimately, it\u2019s about a very simple idea of luxury: plenty of space, good food, architecture, scenery, and time. And fortunately, Mallorca has plenty of all of that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Photos: The V\u00f6lkers House (Ana Adriana, Harry Weber, Milena Pfannkuche, James McDonald)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mallorca often begins quite unremarkably in the southeastern part of the island.
