Cliffside fincas, sunset sailings and the Balearics at their golden best. A private, tailored journey of 7-10 days in Spain, designed end to end by a Forest Travel advisor — with Virtuoso privileges at the finest luxury hotels, from US$10,000 per traveler.
Spain rewards the attentive traveler with sun-washed coastlines, kitchens that reinvented gastronomy and an unhurried elegance found nowhere else.
When to go
May through September, when long golden evenings, warm seas and the Balearics at their finest reward those who travel in the light. Your advisor times it to the light, the crowds and your own calendar.
The experiences
A sense of what this journey can hold — each one arranged privately and shaped to you:
- A private cliffside finca held for you alone, with a chef and staff who anticipate every wish.
- A sunset sailing along the coast, the sea turning to amber as you cast off from a quiet cove.
- A private island-hop across the Balearics, each shore chosen for its light and seclusion.
- A day given to the water, with paddleboards, snorkelling and long lunches on deck.
A sense of the rhythm
The days here belong to the light. Mornings unfold slowly over the water, afternoons drift between coves and long lunches, and evenings arrive gilded and unhurried. Nothing is rushed, and nothing is missed.
How to do it well
The counsel our advisors give travelers planning this journey:
- Reserve the finest luxury hotels and private fincas six to nine months ahead for the golden weeks of July and August.
- Ask us to pair your stay with a crewed sailing so the coastline opens up beyond the reach of the roads.
- Build in unstructured days; Spain rewards the traveller who lingers rather than the one who races.
- Travel by private transfer between coasts to keep the summer roads and heat from touching your day.
What only your advisor can open
The difference between a good trip and an unrepeatable one is access — and access is a relationship, not a booking. Every guide, room and moment is chosen and sequenced for you.
Who it's for
Travelers who value privacy, time and doing it once — beautifully — and who would rather have one trusted advisor orchestrate every detail than assemble it themselves.
Estimated investment
From US$10,000 per traveler, based on double occupancy — scaled to your dates, party size and level of privacy. A starting point, not a final quote; confirmed once your advisor tailors the itinerary.
Designed entirely around you
Nothing here is a package. A Forest Travel advisor shapes the whole journey and stays one message away before and throughout your trip.
Your Virtuoso privileges
As a Virtuoso member, Forest Travel includes benefits reserved for Virtuoso guests at the finest luxury hotels, at no added cost: a room upgrade on arrival when available, daily breakfast for two, a property credit toward dining or spa, and early check-in with late check-out when the hotel allows.

Questions, answered.
Mallorca offers a wider reach of coastline, dining and glamour, ideal if you want variety within easy reach. Menorca is calmer and more private, its beaches quieter and its rhythm gentler. Many combine both across a single unhurried week.
Six to nine months ahead. Our advisors reserve the finest luxury hotels and private fincas that far in advance for the golden weeks of July and August, when the Balearics are at their busiest and their best. Booking early keeps the most private options open, including a cliffside finca held for you alone, with a chef and staff who anticipate every wish.
Yes. Pairing your stay with a crewed sailing lets the coastline open up beyond the reach of the roads. It can mean a sunset sailing that casts off from a quiet cove as the sea turns to amber, a private island-hop across the Balearics with each shore chosen for its light and seclusion, or a day given to the water with paddleboards, snorkelling and long lunches on deck.
Leave time free. Our advisors recommend building in unstructured days, because Spain rewards the traveller who lingers rather than the one who races. The days here belong to the light: mornings unfold slowly over the water, afternoons drift between coves and long lunches, and evenings arrive gilded and unhurried. Private transfers between coasts keep the summer roads and heat from touching your day.
Spanish Summer Escape is a journey of 7-10 days. That is enough time for a private cliffside finca with a chef and staff, a sunset sailing from a quiet cove, a private island-hop across the Balearics and a full day given to the water, with paddleboards, snorkelling and long lunches on deck. Many travelers combine Mallorca and Menorca across a single unhurried week. Mornings unfold slowly over the water, afternoons drift between coves, and evenings arrive gilded. Our advisors build in unstructured days and private transfers between coasts so nothing is rushed and nothing is missed.
As a private, tailored journey it starts from roughly US$10,000 per traveler (double occupancy) and scales with your dates, party and level of privacy — a starting point, never a fixed package price. Your advisor confirms the figure once the itinerary is tailored.
May through September is the season for this journey, when long golden evenings, warm seas and the Balearics at their finest reward those who travel in the light. These are the months for sunset sailings, as the sea turns to amber, and for days on the water snorkelling and paddleboarding between coves. July and August are the golden weeks, so reserve the finest luxury hotels and private fincas six to nine months ahead. Your advisor times the trip to the light, the crowds and your own calendar.
On Spanish Summer Escape, a private cliffside finca is held for you alone, with a chef and staff who anticipate every wish. It becomes the anchor for days that belong to the light: mornings unfold slowly over the water, afternoons drift between coves and long lunches, and evenings arrive gilded and unhurried. Nothing is rushed, and nothing is missed.
A private island-hop across the Balearics moves from shore to shore, each one chosen for its light and seclusion. It can be paired with a day given entirely to the water, with paddleboards, snorkelling and long lunches on deck, and a sunset sailing that casts off from a quiet cove as the sea turns to amber. Each is arranged privately and shaped to you.
On Spanish Summer Escape, travel between coasts is by private transfer, so the summer roads and heat never touch your day. This matters most if you base yourself on Mallorca, with its wider reach of coastline and dining, or combine Mallorca and Menorca across one unhurried week. A crewed sailing also opens up stretches of coastline beyond the reach of the roads.
