Castillo Hotel Son Vida is an adults-only, 5-star luxury hotel set within a beautifully restored 13th-century castle in the prestigious Son Vida estate, just above Palma, Mallorca. Perched high in the hillside and surrounded by mature pine trees, manicured gardens and world-class golf courses, the hotel offers some of the most breathtaking views across the Bay of Palma and the island’s rugged coastline.
From the moment you arrive through the gated entrance, the atmosphere feels exclusive and tranquil. Historic stone walls, original castle towers and ivy-covered archways preserve its heritage, while elegant modern interiors and refined service create a contemporary luxury experience. Rich history meets understated glamour — antique furnishings, chandeliers and grand staircases sit harmoniously alongside soft neutral tones, marble finishes and spacious lounges.
The hotel forms part of the Son Vida golf estate, one of the most prestigious golfing destinations in Mallorca. It overlooks the fairways of Golf Son Vida and is only a short shuttle away from neighbouring championship courses, yet it still feels peaceful and secluded — making it ideal for both golfers and guests simply seeking relaxation.
Rooms and suites are stylish, serene and designed to make the most of the views. Many offer private terraces or balconies facing the golf course, gardens or the sea. Inside you’ll find high ceilings, soft fabrics, premium bedding, large windows and elegant bathrooms finished with marble, rainfall showers or deep bathtubs. Suites offer even more space, separate living areas and panoramic outlooks that stretch across Palma and the coastline.
Around the hotel, guests have access to tranquil outdoor swimming pools, sun terraces lined with cypress and palm trees, and peaceful garden areas ideal for lounging away the afternoon. The spa offers a calm, candlelit atmosphere with treatment rooms, sauna, steam room, relaxation areas and a fully-equipped fitness studio.
Dining is a highlight here. Breakfast is served with sunrise views across the island, while evenings can be spent dining al fresco on the terrace or inside elegant castle-style dining rooms. Expect Mediterranean-inspired cuisine, seasonal ingredients and carefully curated wine selections. A lounge bar and poolside dining area offer more relaxed settings for light lunches, cocktails and sunset drinks.
Despite its peaceful hilltop location, the hotel is only a short drive from Palma’s historic centre, luxury marina and shopping streets. This makes it ideal for guests wanting to experience the culture, dining and nightlife of the city while staying in a serene and exclusive retreat.
Castillo Hotel Son Vida is designed for adults only, ensuring a quiet, romantic and refined atmosphere throughout the estate. Whether you’re here to play golf, enjoy a peaceful break, celebrate a special occasion or simply relax in one of Mallorca’s most iconic castle hotels, it delivers a truly timeless Mediterranean experience.
