A premier hotel in northern Mallorca — a converted 18th-century Augustinian monastery 5 minutes from Pollença, with 23 rooms and suites, Restaurant 365's award-winning Mallorcan tasting menu, a modern spa, and the combination of mountain-and-valley position and monastery architecture that makes it the most serene large-format luxury property in the north of the island.
Why We Chose It
Son Brull sits in the Tramuntana foothills 5 minutes outside Pollença — a location that provides immediate access to the medieval town's Sunday market, Roman ruins at Alcúdia, the Formentor Peninsula, and the Bay of Pollença without placing guests in the crowded resort environment of Port de Pollença. The converted monastery (Augustinian, 18th century) provided the building bones: thick stone walls, vaulted ceilings, a cloistered courtyard, and the quiet that institutions designed for contemplation preserve. The 23 rooms and suites are elegant without ostentation; some have private terraces and pools. Restaurant 365 serves an eight-course Mallorcan tasting menu (locally sourced, seasonally driven, a top fine-dining experiences in northern Mallorca) alongside à la carte options in a less formal register. The spa (ultramodern treatments in a traditionally aesthetic setting) and infinity pool (mountain views, long enough for actual lap swimming) are the hotel's primary relaxation infrastructure.
What Stands Out
- Converted 18th-century Augustinian monastery: the most historically significant hotel building in northern Mallorca
- Restaurant 365's Mallorcan tasting menu: a top fine-dining experiences in northern Mallorca
- 5 minutes from Pollença: immediate access to Sunday market, Roman ruins, Formentor Peninsula
- 23 rooms — the intimate scale that rewards repeat visits and personal service
- Infinity pool with Tramuntana mountain views: the correct orientation for a hotel in this landscape
