Son Amoixa Vell Hotel, Manacor

Superbly located, surrounded by lawn in the midst of a Mediterranean landscape with oleanders, orange trees, lemon trees and vineyards, our swimming pool is the perfect place to unwind and totally relax. The "bathing season" in Mallorca is usually from mid-May to late October. However, depending on the amount of sunny days, our solar heated pool reaches a pleasant temperature even before, and it often holds up until November. By the way at Son Amoixa Vell you can swim "chlorine free!"

The hotel has a romantic à la carte restaurant with a beautiful terrace, daily specials and a seasonal menu, open every day except Tuesdays from 19:00 (in summer from 19:30). The restaurant is open to the public as well as guests of the hotel.

Their chef Juan Ballester serves Majorcan-Mediterranean delicacies. There are more than 30 wines on offer, mostly Mallorcan, and there is definitely something that will compliment your meal. The restaurant has been awarded with the "HolidayCheck Special Award for Gastronomy".

You’ll need to book your own childcare when staying here. There is a great choice of childcare options in Mallorca from full-time nanny services to the odd night of babysitting. Booking in advance is always recommended and strongly advised for the school holiday periods.

You’ll need to organise your own bike hire when staying here.  Things to consider are the type of bike you want to rent such as road, mountain, hard trail and/or an electric bike; and whether you’ll need helmets and protective clothing with your rental. You’re best off choosing a shop that is close to your accommodation for ease of access, and making it quicker to return the bike and pay at the end. Some companies may also deliver so it’s worth looking at all the options.
