The adventure continues with a private wine tasting session at the distinguished Son Vich de Superna Estate.

Located in the serene Superna Valley, an exclusive tour of the estate’s wine cellar and tasting room concludes with a private wine session, all set against the stunning mountainous backdrop. In the evening, guests retreat to their luxury abode for an open-air dinner and cocktails beneath the starlit sky.

The next morning, guests journey to Puerto Adriano for an exclusive boat excursion, guided by a knowledgeable marine biologist, to the untouched Toro Islands Marine Reserve. In partnership with a local NGO, Mandarin Oriental Exclusive Homes offers guests the opportunity to participate in marine conservation efforts, including diving and snorkeling, aiding in the preservation of the area’s delicate marine habitats.

The boat tour features a sumptuous lunch in a secluded bay, followed by snorkeling and paddleboarding to further explore the Mediterranean’s enchanting waters. Upon returning to their private residence, guests can indulge in personalized spa treatments or relish in gourmet meals prepared by their dedicated Mandarin Oriental chef, featuring local ingredients.

The journey culminates with a visit to a peaceful finca and biological reserve in Pollenca, managed by the Mediterranean Wildlife Foundation.

Expert beekeeper Marti Mascaro shares insights on sustainable honey production, the critical role of bees in the ecosystem, and ongoing efforts to safeguard endangered species.

Following a relaxed organic lunch, guests are invited to a personal perfume-making workshop, a serene experience designed to forge a deeper connection with nature and the distinct scents of Mallorca. Guided by the artisanal expertise of Viti Vinci, a boutique brand rooted in the island’s fragrant botanicals, participants explore the craft of natural perfume creation.
