Book the Son Bunyola with VIP Benefits

Tucked away on the rugged and picturesque northwest coast of Mallorca, the Son Bunyola Hotel is more than just a luxurious escape - it's a celebration of heritage, nature, and refined hospitality. This exceptional property, which opened its doors in the summer of 2023, has quickly earned a place among the most remarkable retreats in the Balearic Islands. Set within a vast 810-acre estate already home to three well-known villas, the hotel blends rich history with modern comfort in a way that feels effortless yet deeply authentic.

Historic Foundations Meet Contemporary Luxury

The heart of the hotel lies in a carefully restored Finca that dates back to the 1500s. This historic building, once the core of local agricultural life, has been lovingly revived to retain its original charm while welcoming guests into an environment of understated luxury. The original architecture - including the Tafona building, which houses a centuries-old olive press—has been preserved and integrated into the design of the hotel. Throughout the estate, guests can feel the echoes of history, from ancient stone walls to traditional terracotta roofs, all balanced with stylish interiors and modern touches.

Complementing the main Finca and Tafona are several annexe buildings that expand the hotel's offerings while maintaining a cohesive and tranquil atmosphere. Together, they house 26 beautifully designed rooms and suites, each offering a distinct perspective on the estate's natural surroundings.

Elegant Rooms Framed by Sea and Mountains

Every room and suite at Son Bunyola is designed with comfort, privacy, and style in mind. While each space is unique, all are unified by a serene palette of natural tones, high-quality materials, and thoughtful details that reflect the Mallorcan spirit. Whether guests choose a cozy Mountain View Room or the exceptional Tafona or Tower Suites, they are guaranteed stunning vistas—either over the dramatic Tramuntana mountain range or the sparkling waters of the Mediterranean Sea.

Windows frame postcard-perfect views, while plush furnishings and spacious layouts make each room a haven of relaxation. The design encourages guests to slow down, unplug, and immerse themselves in the moment.

Gastronomy Rooted in Place

The culinary experience at Son Bunyola is deeply rooted in the island's flavors and traditions. The hotel offers two distinct restaurants, each celebrating the bounty of Mallorca through inventive yet grounded menus. Ingredients are locally sourced whenever possible, many even harvested from the estate itself or neighboring villages. With the Mediterranean on one side and fertile mountain valleys on the other, Son Bunyola is perfectly positioned to offer fresh, seasonal cuisine that reflects the essence of the region.

Guests can dine al fresco under ancient trees or on panoramic terraces, with each meal becoming a sensory journey. From leisurely breakfasts to long lunches and intimate candlelit dinners, the focus is always on quality, authenticity, and hospitality.

A Pool With a Story and Views to Remember

At the center of the hotel lies its historic terrace, which now hosts a heated infinity pool. This spot has quickly become one of the estate's most beloved features, not only for its refreshing waters but also for its breathtaking views. From here, guests can gaze out over olive groves and stone walls toward the endless blue of the Mediterranean.

This terrace, once used for farming and gatherings, has been thoughtfully reimagined as a place of leisure and beauty. Loungers and shaded corners invite guests to linger, whether with a book, a cocktail, or simply the sound of the sea breeze.

Wellness in Harmony with Nature

True to its setting, Son Bunyola embraces wellness not as an isolated experience, but as a way of life. The estate's spa treatment rooms provide a quiet retreat where guests can unwind with a massage or facial using natural, high-quality products. Each treatment is designed to relax both body and mind, drawing inspiration from the island's natural elements.

In addition to spa offerings, guests have access to a wellness area and a well-equipped gym. Whether it's a morning stretch session with mountain views or a workout before dinner, the facilities support a balanced and health-conscious lifestyle.

Exploring the Estate and Beyond

One of Son Bunyola's greatest gifts is its location. The estate stretches across 810 acres of unspoiled Mallorcan countryside, inviting guests to explore on foot, by bike, or even with a picnic basket in hand. Hidden paths lead through olive groves, citrus orchards, and rolling hills, offering moments of quiet solitude or scenic adventure.

A short walk from the hotel leads to a secluded pebble beach—a tranquil cove where guests can swim, sunbathe, or simply listen to the lapping waves. For the more active, the estate also includes a tennis court, where players can enjoy a match surrounded by natural beauty.

The nearby villages of Banyalbufar and Esplores offer additional charm. Just a few kilometers away, they present opportunities to experience local life, from artisan shops to traditional cafés. For those wanting to explore further, the vibrant city of Palma is only a 40-minute drive away, making it easy to combine cultural excursions with rural relaxation.

An Easy Journey to a World Apart

Despite its secluded feel, Son Bunyola is conveniently located. The nearest airport, Palma de Mallorca (PMI), is just 25 kilometers away. Guests can opt for a rental car to explore the island at their own pace, or the hotel team can arrange seamless transfers to and from the airport. Once on the estate, it feels like stepping into another world—one where time slows down and the senses come alive.

A Place for All Seasons and All Guests

Son Bunyola welcomes guests year-round, with each season offering its own charm. In spring, the landscape bursts into bloom. Summer brings long, golden days and warm evenings, while autumn colors the vineyards and forests in rich tones. Even in winter, the mild climate and peaceful ambiance offer a refreshing escape.

Families are warmly welcomed, with thoughtful touches to ensure everyone enjoys their stay. Children under six can stay free of charge when sharing a room with an adult, and children of all ages are embraced as part of the hotel's inclusive spirit. Special attention is paid to food, comfort, and activities that cater to younger guests without compromising the experience for adults.

Sustainability and Authenticity at the Core

Son Bunyola is not just a luxury hotel—it is a steward of history and nature. Every decision, from restoration to operations, reflects a commitment to sustainability and respect for the land. The hotel has been developed with sensitivity to its surroundings, using traditional building techniques, local materials, and eco-conscious systems.

This respect for authenticity also extends to service. The team at Son Bunyola embodies a warm, personalized approach, offering attentive but unobtrusive hospitality. Whether arranging a private dinner, guiding a walk through the estate, or organizing a bespoke excursion, the goal is always to make each guest feel truly at home.
