Hotel Son Xotano  

In the gentle Mallorcan countryside of Sencelles, this 4-star hideaway sits among olive groves and quiet lanes. It’s close to Mallorca Planetarium and Gordiola Glassworks and Museum, with Zoologico Natura Parc, Cueva de Es Cuieram, El Arenal Beach and Aqualand a short drive away.

Just 14 individually furnished rooms keep the place intimate. Expect pillowtop beds, minibars, LED TVs with satellite channels and private bathrooms with deep soaking tubs — warm, rustic décor with subtle local touches.

Soak in the outdoor pool, sip at the poolside bar, or book an onsite massage or facial at the spa and hair salon. Active guests can rent bicycles, hit the fitness, mini-golf or yoga areas, and the hotel offers tour assistance, wedding services, a barbecue area, complimentary Wi‑Fi, free self-parking and an airport shuttle for a surcharge.

A conference hall and a meeting room provide about 861 sq ft (80 sq m) of event space. Complimentary Wi‑Fi, luggage storage and multilingual staff keep business travel simple.

The hotel restaurant focuses on local cuisine with pool views and alfresco dining when the weather allows. There’s also a bar/lounge and a poolside bar for relaxed drinks.
