So how do you get away from the typical tourist bustle and
enjoy a quiet relaxing time, yet be close to the center of
things in Mallorca? – Stay at the Bon Sol Hotel. This hotel,
highly recommended by close friends, is located in Illetas just
five kilometers from downtown Palma. Illetas was once a small
town on it’s own but has now been enveloped by growing Palma
urbanization. The hotel is spread into many sections over seven
levels that are serviced by pretty pathways and an excellent
system of elevators. The common areas are endless and
outstanding with unique eclectic decorations that date from
medieval to modern times and provide a warm and friendly
environment that effectively encourages relaxation. There are
several Knights in Armor posted at strategic locations on guard
for the guests.

The hotel is family owned and run by Lorraine and Martin
Xamena, who represent the second generation. They are hands on
managers and are always guiding the hotel with friendly
efficiency, complemented by an attentive staff, most of who
have been at the Bon Sol for many years. The web site is
located at: http://www.ila-chateau.com/bon_sol/

The Bon Sol is nestled into a hillside in a small cove giving
it wonderful privacy with a very small but cozy private beach.
The beach is complemented by four pools at various levels from
the beach to the main hotel. There is also more than adequate
sun worshipping equipment and tons of shade for those who
prefer it. The architecture is best appreciated from the sea
and gently blends the hotel into its landscape without
attempting to dominate it.

There are two active bars and two restaurants – one pair by the
beach and one up the hill at the main hotel level. The food is
excellent and there is lots of it! We chose the modified
American plan Majorca Property– breakfast is buffet style with an excellent egg
station, plenty of fruit and a good selection of breads and
pastries. Dinner offers a different menu each night and they
will accommodate your wishes if you prefer ordering off the
menu.

The 92 rooms are each unique, but all are large, have good
bathrooms, excellent views, with a balcony or terrace. There
are 28 villas for families or more extended stays.

Most of the guests are frequent visitors – in fact, the opening
line when you meet someone new in one of the elevators, or in
line for a breakfast omelet is ‘Have you been here before?” The
answer is usually yes. This is the best recommendation of all!

For something completely different take a drive into the
mountains – the roads are good and the views are outstanding.
Visit Valldemosa, Deia, Port de Soller and Andratx – it is a
fun and easy day trip.
