On the beautiful Balearic Island of Majorca lies the new TUI BLUE Sensatori Biomar Hotel – the brand-new addition to the TUI BLUE five-star collection.
Nestled on the quieter east coast of the island and only a five-minute walk to Sa Coma's promenade and beach, HELLO! went to see what this stunning new hotel has to offer, and what it's like to explore Majorca with TUI.

What is it like staying at TUI BLUE Sensatori Biomar?
Whether you are a solo traveller, a couple, or a family seeking a getaway, you will be totally immersed in your chosen holiday experience – and you won't need to compromise.
The spacious new adult-only building and sun terrace
Amazingly, even at 80% capacity, I noticed that the hotel does not feel crowded thanks to the intuitively designed use of space and elegant landscaping, not to mention the palatial layout.
Guests staying in the brand-new 'Adult Only Zone' are welcome to venture along the tree-lined paths to the original complex should they be curious about family guests' lively entertainment – which boasts performances from stars such as the finalists from The Voice – Spain.
Everyone can enjoy the evening performances
What is on offer at TUI BLUE Sensatori Biomar?
• Seven restaurants and five swimming pools are all within walking distance (and often swim-up distance!) of a cocktail bar with helpful staff always on hand.
• There is a BLUE® spa with one free visit per stay, a gym for every adult staying at the hotel and fully equipped play areas for children.
• Come nightfall there is entertainment for all; a piano bar, gentle acoustic music area, and a stage hosting live shows.

What is the food like at TUI BLUE Sensatori Biomar?
Among the seven eateries are three themed à la carte restaurants offering marvellous Mediterranean, Italian or Asian cuisine. Your all-inclusive package will include one meal at each à la carte restaurant per stay and I would definitely recommend trying them all. The staff really made us feel at home.
Restaurant Asia at the Sensatori Biomar
The hotel's house red wine is particularly good – it is a Cabernet Sauvignon from the local Butxet Vineyard in Majorca. The staff kindly gifted me with a bottle to take home which was a nice touch.
I enjoyed how fresh snacks and hot drinks are available throughout the day at Thea's Coffee Shop, should you feel peckish between the ample breakfast and lunch buffets.

The adult traveller experience at TUI BLUE Sensatori Biomar
Spacious standard double rooms in the new adult-only building
The TUI BLUE Sensatori Biomar hotel is a sanctuary for adults; the 'Adult Only Zone' includes the dedicated Lyra restaurant and bars with indoor and outdoor seating which is so beautiful in the evenings too.
The new adult-only circle building and swimming pool at the Sensatori Biomar
Everything you want and need is situated within the sprawling, private grounds of this brand-new circular building.

Relaxation here comes easily - the nearby BLUE® spa features a jacuzzi, gym, sauna, Turkish bath, and ice fountains. There is even a music therapy pool where you can select your own music.
Every spacious bedroom and suite from the ground floor up boasts either a generously sized balcony or garden.
Each standard double room comes with a balcony and a view
You could upgrade to a room with a small swim-up pool which would be heated by sunlight, however, from the second communal rooftop pool, you can marvel at the stunning near-360 panoramic view - it's always quiet up there.

A moment I will always remember would be taking myself along to an expert-led yoga class at sunrise in a wonderful purpose-built poolside wellbeing area – one for the early birds!

The family holiday experience at TUI BLUE Sensatori Biomar
The family's swimming pool Sensatori Biomar
Families are embraced at the Sensatori Biomar, and the existing buildings, where more double rooms and all family rooms are situated, have recently received a light retouch.
Premier family rooms boast shared rooftop pools and terraces
You might be tempted to upgrade your double room to a rooftop 'Premium Double Room' or 'Premium Junior Suite' for access to a rooftop terrace and pool shared between up to four rooms.
Children will love the indoor and outdoor play area
There are fantastic areas for the kids; a fully staffed soft play area for toddlers and a hangout area for children aged five to 11 years to socialise while parents relax.
There is live entertainment every evening at Sensatori Biomar

Best things to do and excursions in Majorca
Palma Walking Tour and Boat Cruise, from £35 per person
The Cathedral of Santa Maria
This excursion to the capital city is a must. See inside the magnificent 14th Century Cathedral and learn the secrets of the ancient streets of the Palma. Make sure that you make the most of your free time to enjoy the free galleries, boutiques, and phenomenal restaurants. A wonderful woman from TUI BLUE mentioned a tapas restaurant named 'Ombu Tapas & Cocktails' and it was probably the best tapas I've ever had!
Majorca Wine Tour, from £47 per person
The Bodega Ramanyà vineyard experience is wonderful
The family-run Bodega Ramanyà winery experience is marvellous. Magdelena, her son and dog Bunny will welcome you with a short tour through their botanical gardens, and their collection of rare historic agricultural artefacts. They are a fountain of knowledge. You will then learn about their winemaking process and enjoy their wines with homemade Majorcan food. Magdelena will not let you leave hungry! I would say that their 'Goig de Ramanya' sparkling brut rose is well worth buying for just €7.50.
The family will lead you through their stunning gardens before your wine-tasting
Picturesque forest walk
For some remarkable photo ops, step outside of the Sensatori Biomar and allow the tour guide to take you on a scenic forest walk just minutes from the hotel, where you will see wild tortoises, pass through meadows where horses graze and find the hidden beaches of Sa Coma. Our route took us to a lovely hilltop café – conveniently – and there is a castle with a drawbridge that all the adults and kids loved climbing, enquire at the hotel.

There really is so much to see and do on this beautiful island, much of the meadow and forest landscape is now protected from future builds and this hotel's management, Protur, told me that they have set up 10,000 solar panels which provide green energy for the TUI BLUE Sensatori Biomar as well as four other local hotels.
What is it like to travel to and around Majorca?
Travel is easy – holidaymakers from the UK only need to show either proof of being fully vaccinated, or of having recovered from a prior COVID-19 infection in the last six months.
Daily flights operate from Birmingham, Gatwick and Manchester and your coach from Palma airport to the hotel takes between 1 hour and 1 hour 30 depending on traffic.
All TUI excursions have health and safety measures in place and comply with government regulations. This includes limited numbers, social distancing, regularly cleaning, hand sanitiser, etc.
