The property has a history: it dates back to the 13th century, and the interiors and gardens reflect its illustrious past. Stylish salons and a massive multi-coloured glass dome set the scene, and the elegant former dining room boasts original artworks of hunting depictions by Mallorcan artist Ricard Anckermann, Mallorca’s most important artist of all time. It’ll come as no surprise, from the moment you alight on the doorstep, that this hotel was a favourite of celebrities including Grace Kelly, Onassis and Maria Callas. Today, the guest list is often equally illustrious.
Upstairs, the rooms are sophisticated and attractively appointed. Entry-level rooms are certainly comfortable, and yet our choice would be the Grand Deluxe option if you care for a view of the bay. All categories have rooms with balconies as an option (something to splurge on), and for those here with friends or family, the four-bedroomed Villa Suite with its private pool and jacuzzi may be the ticket.
There is one restaurant on-site and two bars. Es Castell offers sophisticated Mediterranean choices, indoors or outdoors, in the glass-enclosed dining area overlooking Palma. Sa Font Pool Bar spans two levels and serves Levantine-inspired fare throughout the day, while Bar Armas is more formal and boasts a huge outdoor terrace for the perfect nightcap or pick-me-up with a view.
You’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to spending time here focusing on you, and as the days pass, you’ll sincerely wish you could wind back the clock to the day of your arrival. There is a large outdoor pool, four tennis courts, a wellness centre with steam, sauna, ice fountain, indoor pool and whirlpool tub and an excellent spa with a long list of facial and body treatments.
