Review of dinner at Petit Hotel Son Arnau, Selva
Petit Hotel Son Arnau is one of a growing number of stylish boutique hotels in rural Mallorca. On the edge of the village of Selva (just a couple of kilometres from Inca), it opened at the beginning of 2014 and is run by Alex and Susan Terry. You can read their story in my article for abcMallorca here: http://issuu.com/abc-llorca.com/docs/76th_abcmallorca_summer_edition/79?e=0 Dinner at Petit Hotel Son Arnau Although the hotel dining room is not open to the public, we were lucky […]
Review of Son Brull Hotel & Spa, Pollensa
The Boss and I recently celebrated our anniversary and marked the occasion with a stay at the rurally located Son Brull Hotel & Spa, near Pollensa in the north of Mallorca. It was the third time we had stayed here, and each stay has been off-season. One day we will get to swim in their large outdoor pool and relax afterwards on the surrounding terraces with a long cold drink, wearing one of the Son Brull straw hats they […]
Another tapas treat from Chefs(in)
March 1st is a public holiday on Mallorca (and her sister islands) as it’s Día de les Illes Balears. There is always a lot going on around this date and, this year, one of the must-do things for foodies is a tapas event known as Peccata Minuta, on Saturday, February 28th. These tapas feasts are organized by Chefs(in), and have proved very popular in Palma de Mallorca and in Inca. This time, Peccata Minuta is taking place in two locations […]

And so to the final hotel in Mallorca we had the pleasure of staying in during 2014. Fontsanta Hotel, Campos For my birthday we booked dinner and an overnight stay in Fontsanta Hotel – a 5-star property near Campos in the south of Mallorca. It’s the sister property to Hotel Can Simoneta (Canyamel) and Hotel Convent de la Missió (home of the Michelin-starred Marc Fosh restaurant) in Palma. Like Es Revellar Art Hotel, Fontsanta Hotel has something unique to offer: […]
Seven Tried-and-Tested Hotels on Mallorca (part two)
Our hotel stays in 2014 were all on Mallorca – and each for one night. I’ve already written about Castell Son Claret and Es Revellar Art Resort, in part one of this post. Today you can find out about three more hotels we enjoyed staying in during the course of the year. Petit Hotel Son Arnau, Selva I first heard about this new luxury village hotel (opened at the start of 2014) when I saw a special […]
Seven Michelin stars for Mallorca for 2015
Within the past hour, the news that every decent chef in Spain and Portugal has been waiting for was announced: the Michelin stars for 2015. Last year on Mallorca there were five restaurants with Michelin-starred cuisine. For 2015 there are two new additions; the restaurants with stars in 2014 have retained them for 2015, making a total of seven restaurants each with one star. I’m pleased to say I’ve eaten in them all and can confirm that […]
Another ‘Peccata Minuta’ Success for Chefs(in)
Warm sunny weather added to the enjoyment of ‘Peccata Minuta’ – the gourmet tapas event organized by Chefs(in) in Inca on Sunday. Eight chefs produced some delicious tapas, which were available at a cost of three euros a portion. Money well spent, we thought, after we’d indulged ourselves in a few of them. We bought our ‘tickets’ for the number of tapas we wanted at 11am promptly, an hour before the event started, then headed off […]
