El Arenal originated at the end of the 19th century as a small village of fishermen and stonecutters that would begin its unstoppable race to become an important tourist center with the construction of the first hotel in 1914, which would be followed by many others.

Today, next to the beach of El Arenal emerges one of the largest concentrations of hotels, not only in Mallorca, but in the entire Mediterranean. Directly next to the sea and the coastline there is a pleasant promenade, ideal for strolling around.
