This is a very special hotel in Mallorca, close to the popular tourist resort of Alcudia but a world away in terms of style and atmosphere. So special inside and outside, all around the hotel are woodlands with tree species native to this soil, olive orchards, vineyards, almond trees and oaks that live to over 100 years forming a listed area of outstanding natural beauty.
It has remained still very much a working farm which produces wine, olive oil, oranges, lemons, vegetables and eggs but has been sympathetically converted into a wonderful place to stay. On the farm itself there are also Talaiotic monuments going back over 3,000 years where visitors can enjoy the unique privilege of examining one at close quarters right in the garden next to the swimming pool.
More exactly, Son Simó Vell is a typical Mallorcan farm characterized by a balance of the rural environment and the farmhouse with a minimalistic interior that makes the most of natural light. The facilities of the place will ensure that guests enjoy Mallorca’s mountain scenery to the full while they can enjoy every physical comfort.
The farm has very good communications: within a radius of just a few kilometres are the mediaeval town of Alcúdia; the lovely beaches and coves of Pollensa and Formentor; golf courses; and other places of great interest to tourists, to complement the sights that can be seen by touring the island.
If you simple want a stay here, you’ll have to know that this place is simple, luminous, minimalist, modern yet traditionally styled and sits in 40 hectares of its own grounds ideal for a spot of hiking and containing ancient ruins. It’s quiet, relaxing, has a gym, swimming pool and only 8 rooms so no dawn rush to grab a pool lounger! Take your time and enjoy the beauty of this place!
