Bon Sol Resort and Spa

We keep going back here because we know we'll have a lovely holiday. The location (Illetes) is only a short drive from Palma airport & it's a nice little coastal resort overlooking Palma Bay. The BonSol Hotel is well positioned - overlooking Palma Bay & with a small beach. The hotel consists of several buildings - the original building & then more going down to the sea, All are connected & one can get everywhere in the grounds, where there are swimming pools, access to the sea from the little beach, & lots of sun-beds to relax on. We love to sit & look out over Palma Bay. When you arrive at the hotel you'll be welcomed by friendly helpful staff. And you'll find that the family (who run the hotel) & all staff are friendly & helpful. We opt for a junior suite in the original building; that gives plenty of space & a balcony, from which can look out over Palma Bay - lovely.Excellent room - comfortable bed, toiletries in the bathroom, where there's a shower+bath, plenty of towels, both for the bathroom & to take out to sun-lounger. The bedroom had air-conditioning plus facilities for making tea/coffee. So an excellent room. Food - we find all meals are excellent. There are 2 different places to eat - the original building & the beach-side restaurant. Breakfast - there is plenty of choice. Lunch -we like to go for a snack at the beach restaurant, where we can sit looking out over the sea. Dinner - we go in the original building; plenty of choice & all nicely cooked & presented. It gets busy but the staff do well. Another of the pleasures of eating there is music - most nights there's a pianist playing & quite often a violinist joins pianist, & the violinist is great. We love the music. Oh & before dinner we go into the bar for a drink & I have a cocktail - there's a lovely selection. A treat & the prices are reasonable. There's a regular bus service into Palma & it's worth going; we go couple of times every visit, as we like to both do a longish walk out of the city along the coast and to wander round the city looking at the lovely old buildings. As well as going to Palma, we like to do local walks, especially a coastal walk to a place called Portals Nous. So, to sum up, we keep returning to the Bon Sol (as do many others) because it's excellently run, with good facilities, in a good location, with friendly & helpful family + staff, thus delivering a lovely relaxed & friendly atmosphere. Thus one knows one is going to have a nice relaxed break. Oh & the weather is usually lovely & we were very lucky this time - every day glorious, no rain at all.

Just returned home from this very beautiful hotel, superb luxury rooms, food beyond excellant, staff amazing who cannot do enough for you, perfect setting, it,s little wander that customers always return, it,s a family run hotel, and MARTIN the owner loves to meet and talk to all his guests, the family can always be seen working very hard to keep their guests happy, this clearly works and fully deserves all the praise it gets, cannot wait to go back soon.

For my wife and I the Bonsol is our personal retreat. We just returned from our fifth visit and it was a relaxing and enjoyable as our first. The staff, the food, the abience, and the weather always make for a well earned pause from the stress of normal life. If that is what you are searching for then this is the place. Roc?? I would like to thank all of the staff but especially, Paula, Makerena, and Roc??o for helping to make our trip memorible. We are looking forward to our 6th trip to the Bon Sol in the near future.
