Situated in an upscale residential area and surrounded by subtropical gardens and Son Vida Golf Course, the Castillo Hotel Son Vida is just four kilometers away from the city center and 15 minutes from the airport.

Son Vida was first mentioned in 1518 as a country estate on the outskirts of Palma – today it is one of the most exclusive suburbs on the island. The 'medieval castle' character of the Castillo Hotel Son Vida is the result of a restoration carried out between 1900 and 1905. In 1957 the house was extended and converted into a luxury hotel. The official opening was celebrated in 1961. Over the past 40 years the Castillo Hotel Son Vida has become a favorite address for the international high society, artists and politicians.
