Villa Son Gener

The finca's architecture and interior design are stunning: clean, refined, historical, tasteful and welcoming. The bed was firm in a good way, water pressure strong, and all the amenities spotless. This is the sort of place you promise yourself you'll return to, and then keep coming back to for decades. We found the staff attentive, warm and quick to help in any language. Juan, Ana Paula, Pedro and everyone else we met made us feel welcome and cared for throughout our stay. Janette and Maria were wonderful hosts, pointing us toward beautiful, uncrowded places and giving us everything we needed for a great experience. The chef prepared delicious meals every day and night for a pregnant member of our party who was vegetarian and gluten-free. An absolutely perfect Mallorcan countryside hotel.

The biggest surprise was the restaurant and its staff. The food was amazing, and after the first day the servers knew our children's names. Every night, we could walk down for dinner and find a table ready, with placemats and baby chairs set up. Those small things made travelling with two babies so much easier. We felt like we were staying with family. Thank you to everyone, and we hope to return! We came as a family of four, and the hotel was so accommodating. The quiet country setting was lovely, and the design felt relaxing from the moment we walked in. Our room was dreamy and well equipped for a week-long stay. We also used the laundry service, which was wonderful: we could leave with our clothes clean and packed for the long flight home. I wish we could give more stars.

The breakfast was hearty, with the usual fruit, meat and cereals alongside freshly cooked eggs and baked goods. We had dinner one night too and really enjoyed both the food and the wine list. Staff were kind and helpful throughout. This was our favourite hotel in Mallorca: peaceful, quiet and comfortable, with lots of flowers and beautiful spaces for dining and relaxing. Our room in the main house was spacious, as was the bathroom, and there were thoughtful details throughout. The shower had great water pressure. If we can return, I might book in the other building next time, since the views and pools there were exquisite. We'd highly recommend it.

I’ve stayed here twice now and already know I’ll come back. It’s peaceful despite being close enough to drive to Mallorca’s best beaches, and the property is beautiful with incredible service. I can’t recommend it more.
