Finca Son Palou was, by far, the highlight of our trip to Mallorca. My husband and I spent two days in Barcelona before coming here for six and after one day at Son Palou, we wished we had skipped Barcelona all together. This place is other worldly - the farmhouse, which has been so beautifully restored but still celebrates its original architecture and aesthetic, rests upon 100 hectares of breathtaking views of the Serra de Tramuntana Mountains with olive groves, cherry and apple orchards, forest, and a few surprise friends (sheep!) tucked in its valleys. The photos on its website do not begin to do its beauty justice (no photo could!). Note that the pool area has been enhanced - rather than the red brick, turquoise chairs, and yellow umbrella in some photos, it now has new crisp white concrete pavers, neutral cushioned chairs, and white umbrellas. The infinity pool is the show stopper - we never tired of the views, the other guests were quiet and respectful, and the honor bar makes it easy to lounge for hours. The gardens surrounding the hotel and pool are awe-inspiring - you'll find bumble bees buzzing about lavender, rosemary growing in every variety, majestic cyprus trees, bougainvillea climbing up the courtyard walls, and the list goes on. We had booked a standard room and ended up with a terrace, where we enjoyed having drinks and appetizers before a late dinner each evening. Throughout our stay, Olga and the owner made the guests feel like family.
