The pool
Superbly located, surrounded by lawn in the midst of a Mediterranean landscape with oleanders, orange trees, lemon trees and vineyards, our swimming pool is the perfect place to unwind and totally relax. The "bathing season" in Mallorca is usually from mid-May to late October. However, depending on the amount of sunny days, our solar heated pool reaches a pleasant temperature even before, and it often holds up until November. By the way at Son Amoixa Vell you can swim "chlorine free!"
The Restaurant
The hotel has a romantic à la carte restaurant with a beautiful terrace, daily specials and a seasonal menu, open every day except Tuesdays from 19:00 (in summer from 19:30). The restaurant is open to the public as well as guests of the hotel.
Their chef Juan Ballester serves Majorcan-Mediterranean delicacies. There are more than 30 wines on offer, mostly Mallorcan, and there is definitely something that will compliment your meal. The restaurant has been awarded with the "HolidayCheck Special Award for Gastronomy".
