Four magical days at Castell Son Claret have just come to an end. The first thing that strikes you is the sheer beauty of the property, inside and out - everything is immaculate, the grounds, the public areas, the rooms. It’s obvious that there is attention to detail and a huge amount of pride from all the team. The staff are incredibly polite and bend over backwards to be helpful. From Stefania in the restaurant to Roberto at the bar, and the excellent reception team. Our room was spectacular, the Ren products are divine and the showers are wonderful - the true rainfall experience. The beds are very comfortable and individual duvets is such a lovely touch, making sure no one hogs all of it! We ate all of our meals at the hotel, breakfast was a highlight with attentive service and a very tasty buffet, the pastry chef knows what they are doing! The cooked to order eggs were great and the speed at which food and our essential morning coffee arrived were spot on. Lunches by the pool were just what you’d expect, comfort food with a Spanish touch, and the choice of eating at your lounger or at a table was very much appreciated. The pool itself is remarkable, in immaculate condition, huge and so refreshing. Dinner at Sa Olivera was enjoyable, with a drink from Roberto beforehand in the bar. The tables are all incredibly romantic and the setting feels like a mix of Mallorca and Tuscany. Our sea bass in salt was ginormous, too much for the two of us, but delicious. The wine list as well was comprehensive and although not an expert on my Spanish wines the help from the team meant we tried a spectacular red and white during our stay. We also dined at their Michelin star restaurant, Sa Clastra, taking the full menu and wine pairing. Although a shame we couldn’t eat in the courtyard, the internal setting was romantic and the service just what you would expect. I can see why the restaurant has a Michelin star and to find this level of cooking with a creative Mallorcan influence was a pleasure. On checkout we were able to use the spa before our evening flight and that is also worth visiting, although we didn’t have a treatment I would imagine they would also be top notch. Although we have only just left I’m plotting my return trip - this is a fab spot and one I’d love to return to.
