Castillo Son Vida Hotel
Dating back to the 13th century & close to Mallorca's best golf courses
High above Palma de Mallorca, in the noble estate of Son Vida. This is an unparalleled hotel in the island: an elegant castle nestled in a subtropical park.
The view over the island's gentle landscape, the sumptuously appointed rooms and suites and the characteristic thirteenth-century castle hotel will be the stuff of dreams for all guests. The combination of nature, art, architecture and an exclusive atmosphere makes this hotel on Majorca a place of leisure. The complex is crowned by a 14-metre-high building. The glass dome at the top, "Ars Brevis", is a luminous work of art by exceptionally talented German artist Nils Burwitz.
Located between four destination golf courses, the lush grounds offer tennis courts and four swimming pools, including a kids' pool and indoor pool. Additionally, the Son Vida Beauty Spa and top dining establishments invite guests to indulge. The grand terrace, meanwhile, offers striking views of the nearby city of Palma, Son Vida golf course, and luminous bay.
The various dignified gourmet restaurants and stylish bars offer palate-pleasing Mediterranean fare. These exceptional restaurants proffer delicacies from Mallorcan and Spanish cuisines and underscore these delights with wines from the best wine cellars in the Balearic Islands.
The concerns of daily life will vanish away into relaxed tranquillity at the excellent spa oasis and on the superb 18-hole Son Vida golf course. Furthermore, from this hotel for golf enthusiasts, three additional charmingly landscaped golf courses can be reached in only two minutes: Son Muntaner, Son Quint and Son Quint Executive Courses.
