Mallorca, May 16, 2025 – The collection of Riva Destinations adds a sumptuously sophisticated new location to its portfolio: a Riva Lounge in the renowned Hotel de Mar Gran Meliá on the beautiful island of Mallorca. The official opening – attended by top celebrities and prominent figures from the Mediterranean area and by representatives of local institutions and Mallorcan high society – was held on May 15 with an exclusive seafront gala event, marking the start of collaboration between Riva and the luxury hotel group in the spirit of Mediterranean elegance.
Overlooking a lush garden with a view of the Mediterranean Sea, the new Lounge celebrates the incomparable style of Riva yachts, reinterpreting their iconic furnishings and materials in a setting that blends the elegance of the iconic yacht brand with the excellence of Gran Meliá’s signature hospitality.
The new Riva Lounge, with its light-filled indoor dining area and panoramic sea-facing terrace, is joined by a magnificent Riva Privée. Every detail reprises the incomparable style of Riva boats thanks to the use of fine materials, such as mahogany, ribbed maple and steel, and legendary furnishings including Aquariva lamps and Aquarama chairs.
Making the Riva experience at the resort even more varied, authentic and exciting, a magnificent Rivamare is available for private charter with booking, reserved for both resort guests and outside visitors. It's a unique opportunity to enjoy the sea experience aboard a masterpiece of yachting excellence, exploring the island’s hidden coves, sipping a sunset aperitif or enjoying an unforgettable dinner.
Designed by Spanish architect José Antonio Coderch and known as the ‘chocolate building’ because of its unusual cladding, the Hotel de Mar is set on the rocky Illetas coastline and for over 60 years has been a symbol of Mallorcan architecture and Gran Meliá’s signature luxury hospitality. After Venice, Monte Carlo, Paris and Jeddah, the enchanting island of Mallorca is now also home to a dream location where guests can soak up the atmosphere of Riva's timeless elegance.
