Son Valenti

An intimate 13-suite estate in the Tramuntana landscape
Opening June 2027

SPACE TO SIMPLY BE

Hidden within more than 200 hectares near Banyalbufar, Son Valentí is an intimate retreat shaped by mountains, cultivated terraces and Mediterranean nature.

With only 13 suites, the experience is deeply personal.
Days unfold without hurry - beginning with quiet mornings, continuing through the landscape and ending around a table as the light changes over the mountains.

Son Valentí is a place for privacy, presence and time shared well. An estate where thoughtful hospitality and the natural rhythm of Mallorca come together.

Opening June 2027.

THE ESTATE EXPERIENCE

Son Valentí invites guests to slow down, explore the landscape and experience Mallorca with a rare sense of space and privacy.

    REST

    Wake slowly and let the landscape set the pace. Quiet rooms, generous outdoor spaces and attentive hospitality create room for deep rest and unhurried days.

    EXPLORE

    Follow ancient paths through olive terraces and mountain scenery, discover the villages of the west coast or spend the day beside the Mediterranean.

    TASTE

    Experience seasonal Mallorcan cooking shaped by the estate, nearby producers and ingredients from Fournais’ own agricultural landscapes.

    RESTORE

    Make time for movement, reflection and personal wellbeing. Each experience is considered around the individual - from quiet practices to time spent outdoors.

A Letter from Our Founder

For most of my life, I have been driven by curiosity.
Curiosity about people, business, nature and how things work – but perhaps even more importantly, how they could work better.

Over the years, I have been fortunate enough to build successful businesses. Success, however, has a way of changing the questions you ask yourself. At some point, it is no longer about what else you can build. It becomes about what you want to leave behind.

That question became the beginning of Fournais.

Not because I wanted to create another company, but because I wanted to create places that demonstrate a different way forward. Places where nature, business and people are no longer seen as separate, but as parts of the same living system.
For too long, we have accepted the idea that protecting nature requires sacrifice – that responsibility comes at the expense of comfort, beauty or quality of life. I have never believed that. I believe the opposite.

When we work with nature instead of against it, everything becomes stronger.

Healthier landscapes produce healthier food. Thriving ecosystems create resilient communities. Beautiful places inspire people to care for them. Responsible businesses can restore far more than they consume.

When I first came to Vejrø, it was a forgotten island. The buildings were deteriorating, nature had been neglected and opportunities had disappeared. It reminded me that decline is rarely inevitable – it is simply the result of countless decisions made over time. If that is true, then regeneration is also a decision. One made every single day.

Today, Vejrø tells a different story. Not because the work is finished, but because every year the island becomes healthier, richer and more alive than the year before. To me, that is the true meaning of regeneration. Not perfection, but continuous improvement.

That philosophy now guides everything we do at Fournais. Whether we restore landscapes in Denmark, cultivate ancient olive groves in Mallorca, develop renewable energy systems, create places for hospitality and wellbeing, or establish environments where knowledge can be tested and shared, I do not see separate businesses. I see one connected ecosystem, where soil, water, energy, food, biodiversity, human health and knowledge constantly influence one another.

Nature has always understood this. Perhaps it is time that we do too.

Fournais exists to explore what becomes possible when we stop treating nature as a resource and begin recognising it as the system that sustains us. Not through theories or promises, but through real places that people can experience. Places where ideas become landscapes. Where agriculture restores biodiversity. Where energy creates resilience. Where hospitality contributes to wellbeing. And where every project becomes an opportunity to learn, improve and inspire others.

My hope has never been to build something extraordinary for ourselves. It has always been to build something meaningful that others can learn from.

If Fournais can help demonstrate that healthier ecosystems, stronger communities and better businesses are not competing ambitions, but outcomes of the same well-designed system, then we have achieved something worthwhile.

Because I believe the future is not something we inherit.
It is something we cultivate.
