With a heavenly address in Spain’s Balearic Islands, the Gran Hotel Son Net sits amid fruit groves, vineyards and fragrant pines not far from Palma in the Majorcan village of Puigpunyent. The converted 17th-century estate has beautiful details that include flagstone floors and ancient wooden beams that are showcased in 31 rooms and suites. The décor also includes original art by David Hockney, Andy Warhol, Christo Javacheff, Richard Serra, Marc Chagall and Frank Stella. Dining choices includes Oleum, located within a centuries-old olive press, and al fresco dining at Gazebo in a magical tree house overlooking the Tramuntana Mountains.
There’s plenty to keep you busy, whether your preference is to relax on the property or set off on a journey of discovery across the island. Among the options are private lessons with a PGA professional at the resort’s new golf academy or a round at one of the island’s deep green courses; training with professional cyclist Toni Colo or pedaling solo along one of five spectacular cycling routes that begin right at the hotel; cooking courses that reveal the secrets to preparing perfect tapas or paella; private culinary tours with wine tastings, hiking and olive oil seminars; touring the island’s byways in a classic car; hot-air balloon excursions; horseback riding at nearby Club Hipico Son Gual; or rock climbing courses with a certified instructor.

It was known as the “Kai Tak heart attack” — the thrilling, terrifying final approach into Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport. Airliners were required to bank sharply at the last moment, dodging hills and apartment blocks to line up with a runway jutting out into Kowloon Bay. The airport is long gone, but international visitors are arriving at Kai Tak again, albeit more sedately. Their cruise ships dock smoothly at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a modern gateway designed by Sir Norman Foster.
