PREMIUM CULTURAL DESTINATION IN MAJORCA
In his article “Letter to
Tomeu Buadas, in the
other world”, published
in La Vanguardia on the
9th of March 1973, the
author Camilo José Cela
praised the meetings
of international poets
from Carles Riba to
Robert Graves, as well as
Vicente Aleixandre, in the
Formentor Hotel, and he
remembers the creative,
intellectual atmosphere
that this unique place
offered.
“Tuyas fueron las
Jornadas Poéticas de Formentor
que nimbraron con un halo de
paz la voz de poetas en siete
lenguas, desde Carles Riba
hasta Robert Graves, pasando
por Vicente Aleixandre (…)
Tuyo fue el aliento
que prestaste a las más
descabelladas y hermosas
empresas intelectuales…”
CAMILO JOSÉ CELA
(Epístola dolorosa.
“Carta a Tomeu Buadas,
en el otro mundo”,
La Vanguardia, 9 de marzo de 1973)

The objective of the Barceló Group,
since the incorporation of the hotel
into the company, is to recuperate
the essence of Formentor; the
dream of its creator, Adan Diehl, an
Argentinean millionaire enamoured
of the place, who converted it into
a refuge for artists from all over the
world.
A dream taken up by the Buadas
family, creators of the Formentor
Prize, a literary award that became
one of the most important in Europe.
