The Castillo Hotel Son Vida has a stunning location with amazing views over Palma, making it a serene getaway. I found the spacious rooms comfortable, but they could definitely use some refreshing to meet modern standards.

The friendly and professional staff were a standout aspect of my stay, going above and beyond to provide really good service.
