Son Brull Hotel & Spa

Having just returned form 5 nights at Son Brull feel it appropriate to write a review. I last stayed at the hotel some 15-17 years ago for one evening but always promised myself I would return when visiting Mallorca. We have spent an extended time (6 weeks) in Europe mainly in Athens, Greek Islands and Mainland Spain so a final 5 days of this trip would need to be something very relaxing before turning to. The hurly burly world of living in Central London so booked Son Brull for my partner and I (his first visit to Mallorca) . The decision could not have been better. From our welcome checkin, valet parking of car to final checkout the staff made us feel so valued and relaxed - nothing (and I mean nothing) was too much trouble for them. All the staff were exemplary examples of the very best un customer service . After an initial 2 nights in room 31 where we enjoyed our private hot tub we moved to room 21 - room 21 really is sublime and perfect for us. The private terrace is like an additional room and one we made full use of enjoying early morning coffee to after supper night caps. This rural retreat is abuses perfect, we meet some amazing fellow guy sets who now have become friends, all the meals served were amazing - we loved both 365 and Bistro; the pool area has to be one of the best in the world - so peaceful despite the best efforts of a group booing of overly loud American cyclists who prefer to shout rather than talk/whisper to each other (that was our one complaint of our stay -all us British guests felt they spoiled the tranquility and peaceful surrounding of the pool and bar !). All staff were amazing, from wonderful laundry service, room cleaned to exacting standards, bar service and restaurant service blew us away. Two members of staff stood out for us (Carlos and Kati in restaurant/bar) really went the extra mile in making our stay extra memorable and as such they are one of the main reasons we are so reader to return even thou all the staff we came into contact with were amazing (and we 100% mean that). Son Brull you are a real delight and it’s easy to see why all the fellow British and German guests we came into contact with were regular repeat customers. Well done to all - we cant wait to come back in 2024 ! Yours, Ian & Yanis

Son Brull is a beautiful, unique property that has extensive facilities and excellent service. The hotel is in an old monastery that has been fully renovated into a luxury retreat. The property is big but there are not many rooms so it is not crowded at all. It was truly a relaxing experience being here. Our room (Deluxe) was spacious with a large bathroom. The pool and pool deck was great, with plenty of sunbeds and cabanas for all guests. I saw the spa but didn't get to try the facilities or treatments this time. We liked that they had free parking/valet service. Breakfast was extensive and you can choose from a la carte and buffet options. We tried 3/65 Restaurant for dinner and the food was fantastic. The hotel is in a good spot if you want to do 1/2 day trips to Sa Calobra, Cape Formentor, Alcudia and other beaches on that side of the island. The team at Son Brull really put in effort to ensuring you had a great stay. In terms of what can be improved, the service in the pool area was a little slow but once we did get someone it was great. Also at night there was some noise above our room - not sure what it was but enough to wake us up on both nights we were there. Overall though we still had an excellent stay at Son Brull and would love to come back again in the future.

My husband and I and two adult daughters have just returned from four magical days at Son Brull, Pollenca. The hotel has a pared down simplicity which provides a wonderfully cool and calm interior inside and out. It has been very sympathetically restored in keeping with its fascinating history and the infinity pool provides a wonderful focus from which to absorb the beautiful Mallorcan countryside stretching into the distance. We cannot fault this hotel. The service was impeccable and delivered with a professional warmth and attention to detail. The hotel is scrupulously clean … our rooms had huge bathrooms which provided everything you might wish for or had forgotten at home! The bed rivalled my own wonderful bed at home. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was wonderful, the lunch and the evening bistro menus were varied and completely delicious. What more can I say. The bikes on hire were in tip top condition, the spa provided a welcome refuge from the hot sun (the ice pool was a regular retreat in the afternoon!), Pollenca is on the door step as are a number of coves. We did not go very far afield due to time and heat and indeed because we couldn’t bear to tear ourselves away from Son Brull for too long! I would go so far as to say this hotel is one of a few 5* hotels I have been fortunate enough to have visited that does indeed give true value for money. Thank you Henrik at Rural Hotels Mallorca for recommending this hotel to us and answering my ‘holiday brief’ so expertly!
