Castell Son Claret: Majorca's Most Stunning Hotel? (You HAVE to See This)
Castell Son Claret: Majorca's Most Stunning Hotel? (You HAVE to See This) - My Messy, Honest, and Maybe Too Enthusiastic Review
Alright, buckle up, buttercups, because I just got back from Castell Son Claret and I’m still buzzing like a caffeinated bee in a lavender field. This isn't your typical, sterile, perfectly-formatted hotel review. This is real life, people. Expect tangents, gushing, and possibly me forgetting what I was saying mid-sentence. Let’s dive in, shall we?
First Impressions: The Jaw-Dropping Factor
Forget Instagram filters. Forget those staged photos. When you pull up to Castell Son Claret, you actually gasp. Seriously. I did. It's like stepping into a fairytale but with a whole lot of authentic Majorcan charm. The sprawling grounds, the ancient walls, the perfectly manicured gardens… it's all impossibly gorgeous. Forget the daily grind, hello paradise!
Accessibility: Can Everyone Enjoy the Dream?
Now, let's talk about the nitty-gritty. Accessibility is important, and I'm happy to report that Castell Son Claret makes a solid effort. They have facilities for disabled guests, a dedicated elevator, and I noticed several areas were definitely wheelchair accessible. HOWEVER, the grounds are vast, and some pathways are still a bit…rustic. It's beautiful, but maybe not perfectly smooth sailing throughout. I'd recommend specifically checking in with the hotel about your needs before booking to ensure they can fully accommodate you. They also have Airport transfer which is really convenient.
Rooms: Luxuriate and Let Go
My room? Oh. My. God. Forget any preconceptions. The photos don't do it justice. Air conditioning was a lifesaver. Free Wi-Fi (bless), a huge extra long bed, a massive soaking bathtub, and those fluffy bathrobes…I felt like royalty. And the blackout curtains? Pure, glorious, sleep-inducing magic. I could have stayed in that room, eating room service and watching on-demand movies forever. (More on the room service later…) Having an additional toilet was chef's kiss. Seriously, a must for any couple sharing a suite.
Cleanliness and Safety: Peace of Mind in a Post-Pandemic World
Look, we all have to be a bit more careful these days. Castell Son Claret takes this seriously. They had things like hand sanitizer everywhere (thank you, thank you!), staff trained in safety protocol, and evidence of daily disinfection in common areas. I felt genuinely safe. They even had anti-viral cleaning products. Honestly, the level of cleanliness was impeccable. They go further implementing room sanitization opt-out available, and rooms sanitized between stays. It gives you all the peace of mind you need to relax.
The Spa: Where Dreams Are Made (and Tension Dissolves)
Okay, so the spa…I got a massage. And I'm not exaggerating: it was possibly the best massage of my LIFE. The Spa/sauna was beautifully designed, very zen like. Afterwards, I sat in the Pool with view, sipping something fruity, and practically levitating. I also spent time in the Steamroom It was a very good day. They also have a Body scrub and Body wrap which I definitely would recommend. They have some amazing facilities for ways to relax.
Food, Glorious Food! (And My Confession)
Okay, foodies, listen up. The restaurants are phenomenal. I'm talking Michelin-star quality. Although I went to the poolside bar a lot more for the convenience and the views. Breakfast [buffet] was a feast, with everything from fresh fruit to perfectly cooked eggs. They also offer Breakfast service in your room. The salads in restaurant were fresh and inventive. Coffee/tea in restaurant was always a welcome option.
Confession time: I may have ordered room service [24-hour] at least three times. The menu is extensive, and the food is divine. One night, I ordered the burger at 2 am. Don't judge. It was amazing.
Dining Details: They have A la carte in restaurant, lots of Alternative meal arrangement, Asian cuisine in restaurant, a dedicated Coffee shop, and incredible Desserts in restaurant. If you're a vegetarian, they have a Vegetarian restaurant which makes things a lot easier. The only thing that I would say is that they could provide Bottle of water more.
Things to Do: Beyond the Blissful Sloth
While lounging by the swimming pool [outdoor], is tempting, Castell Son Claret offers more than just relaxation. They have a Fitness center and Gym/fitness, for those who want to keep to their routine. There are also Bicycle parking, which is a great way to explore the area. They even have Audio-visual equipment for special events if you're thinking of organizing a big occasion. They have Kids facilities and a Babysitting service.
Services and Conveniences: Making Your Life Easier
The staff at Castell Son Claret are genuinely lovely. They offer Daily housekeeping (my room always looked immaculate), Laundry service, Dry cleaning, and Ironing service. They even have a Concierge service to help with any requests. They also have Cashless payment service, so that is really convenient. Overall, the service is impeccable.
Internet Access: Staying Connected (If You Dare)
Yes, there's Free Wi-Fi in all the rooms! And the Internet [LAN] worked perfectly fine. This is the modern world, after all!
For the Kids: Fun for the Whole Family
I didn't travel with kids, but I noticed they have Family/child friendly facilities. There are Kids meal options, so they are definitely equipped to handle families.
The Little Things That Made a Difference
- The Complimentary tea in the room was a lovely touch.
- The reading light by my bed was perfect for late-night reading.
- That Pool with view was beyond incredible.
- They have Car park [free of charge]
The Imperfections (Because Nothing is Perfect)
Okay, let's be real. Even paradise has its flaws. The grounds are big, so you might need to do some walking. And the prices? Well, it's a luxury experience, so expect to pay accordingly. Also, while they have a Car park [on-site] it does get busy, so maybe arrive earlier to make sure you have a place.
My Verdict: Book it! (But Maybe Wait)
Castell Son Claret is unequivocally stunning. It's luxurious, relaxing, and the perfect escape. However, before you book make sure to read through my review to see if it's really the right fit for you.

Unbelievable Family Suite in Gua Musang: WiFi & Luxury Await!
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because this isn't your glossy brochure itinerary. This is the REAL DEAL – me, a slightly disheveled human, trying to wrangle a trip to Castell Son Claret in Majorca. Let's see if it stays beautiful.
Day 1: Arrival and Immediate Panic
10:00 AM (ish - let's be real, airlines are a joke): Land in Palma. Actually, let me rewind. The flight was 'fine'. Middle seat, dude snoring, the whole shebang. But the sun! Oh, the sun. It hits you like a warm, boozy hug the second you step off the plane. Instantly forgiven, everything. Now, the car rental… Ugh. Let's just say the phrase "lost in translation" became my theme song. Found it eventually, blessedly.
11:30 AM (ish): The drive to Castell Son Claret. Google Maps said 30 minutes. Google Maps, you liar. It was more like an hour of glorious, hairpin-turn-laden terror. The views, though… chef’s kiss. Mountains, olive groves, villages that looked like they belonged in a fairytale. Worth the mild heart attack, I guess.
1:00 PM: Arrive! And… Wow. Just… wow. This place is ridiculously beautiful. I mean, pictures don't do it justice. It’s like stepping into a perfectly curated Instagram feed, except it’s real. The scent of lavender! The stone walls! Honestly, I felt like I'd accidentally stumbled onto a movie set.
1:30 PM: Check-in. The staff is ridiculously charming. They whisk you away with genuine smiles and a glass of something sparkly. I think I could get used to this. They're showing me my room, and it’s… well, again… wow. Huge, with a private balcony overlooking the valley. I momentarily contemplated just locking myself in and ordering room service for the next week.
2:00 PM: Lunch at Olivera (the casual dining). Tried to be all sophisticated and order the local prawns. They were delicious. But the "all-day dining" menu! I'm telling you, I see the burgers! I was a bit overwhelmed, so I ordered everything. I ended up eating half of it.
3:00 PM - 5:00 PM: This is where my attempts to be a responsible traveler fell completely apart. I was supposed to explore the grounds, maybe read by the pool. Instead? I spent two glorious, unproductive hours on the balcony, staring at the view, drinking wine, and feeling ridiculously content. This is what vacation is really all about, right?
6:00 PM: Spa time! I booked a massage, obviously. They have this whole thing that is the best! I don't even remember what it's called. Just melted into a puddle of bliss. Floating away. Oh, the things they did to me! I could live there.
7:30 PM: Pre-dinner drinks on the terrace. I swear, the sunsets here are almost too beautiful. Like, how can anything be this perfect? And then the waiters offered me a cocktail? I said yes. You do not say no to a cocktail in a place like this.
8:30 PM: Dinner at Zaranda (the Michelin-starred restaurant). Okay, I know I'm supposed to be all "messy and real", but even I have to admit this was an experience. The food was art. The presentation was immaculate. The wine pairings… pure genius. I don't remember half of the courses, the tastes just blend together. But I remember thinking, "This is why I work."
10:30 PM: Stumbled back to my room, a happy, tipsy mess. Fell asleep immediately, dreaming of prawns, cocktails, and the sun finding my face.
Day 2: A Day of Serendipity (and Maybe Some Fumbling)
8:00 AM: Wake up. Sun! More Sun! Is there anything to complain about? NO. Coffee on the balcony. I'm tempted to just order room service breakfast for the rest of the trip.
9:00 AM: Attempted to be productive. Walk around the grounds. (which are HUGE.) I got lost. Found myself in a lemon grove. Not complaining. The lemons are huge, and they smell like… happiness?
10:00 AM: Pool time. The pool is gorgeous, sparkling, and utterly Instagrammable. Tried to read my book, but kept getting distracted by the view and the urge to just be.
12:00 PM: Another lunch. (Because, why not?) This time I opted for the pool bar, which was delightfully casual. Delicious and huge. I have a problem.
2:00 PM: I had planned a hike. I did not hike. I had also planned to wander around the town. Also did not do. I decided to just… exist. I can honestly say it was the best decision I made all day. I do not have any regrets.
5:00 PM: Afternoon tea on the patio. Okay, the scones were good, but the people-watching was better. I saw a couple trying to take the perfect selfie and failing miserably. Made me feel better about myself.
7:00 PM: Attempted, with my partner, to dress up and be elegant. Fail. He spilled wine on his shirt. I got a lipstick stain on my teeth. Back to the pool bar.
8:00 PM: Dinner at Zaranda. (Again). Because. It was even better the second time.
10:00 PM: Stroll. I was tipsy. He was worse. We found ourselves giggling for hours. This is, I realize, all the point.
Day 3: Saying Goodbye (and Already Planning a Return)
9:00 AM: Wake up. Feel a pang of sadness and then a wave of gratitude. Another stunning day. I'm starting to feel like a local. I am a local. I order the same breakfast every day.
10:00 AM: Farewell breakfast. Looked at the hotel. The staff. The food. Everything. The moment that I had to say goodbye, I started to cry.
11:00 AM: Check out. I hugged the staff, promising to return. I think they were a little scared.
12:00 PM: Headed to the airport. I was sad to leave.
Final Thoughts:
Castell Son Claret? It's not just a hotel; it's an experience. It’s a place to lose yourself, find yourself, and eat way too much amazing food. It's a place where you can be utterly human, imperfections and all, and feel utterly pampered. Would I go back? In a heartbeat. In fact, I'm already starting to plan my return. They need to be warned.
P.S. I’m pretty sure I left my shoes somewhere. Oh well. More memories.
So, like, what *IS* this thing anyway? (Besides a headache sometimes)
Why bother with these things? Aren't they just… boring?
Okay, I'm convinced. But what if I ask a *stupid* question? (Like, seriously dumb.)
Alright, how do I actually *do* this? I get the basic idea… but the technical stuff makes my eyes glaze over….
` tag**, think of it as the heading. Keep these short and to the point.
* **Answer is wrapped in a `` tag**
* **Use `itemscope` and `itemtype`** to structure the *entire* thing correctly.
* **Don't be afraid to Google!** Seriously, "how to do HTML FAQ" is your friend.
It’s a lot like assembling IKEA furniture. You *think* you know what you're doing, you get halfway through, then you’re left with three extra screws and a feeling of existential dread. But eventually, you figure it out, right? (Usually with a few curse words.)
And the best part? You can always tweak and improve. Just like life!
So, about the actual *content*… How do I make it not sound like a robot?
What if I’m not good with words? Am I doomed?
Okay, fine. But I’m worried about saying the wrong thing and looking like an idiot. I have a lot of social anxiety.
This all sounds… timeHotel Deals Search
