A RURAL IDYLL ..............
The tiny hamlet of Binibona has just twenty inhabitants, but the population more than doubles when this eleven bedroomed Hotel is full! You will be delighted upon entering this small-fronted village house that is now a charming and surprisingly well-equipped Hotel. It is the second Hotel of the Vicens family, and using their experience from running their first Hotel (Finca Hotel Albellons Parc Natural – also featured on our website and just a couple of miles away) they have created this little haven. On the edge of the Sierra de Tramuntana mountain range it is an excellent base from which to walk or cycle through this enchanting countryside. The Monastery at LLuc, one of Mallorca’s main historical attractions is a short distance by car and well worth a visit.
I have to commend the Hotel on its eco-friendly policy – solar panels for heating, re-cycling of sewage for watering the gardens and the 100% use of natural fertilizers for its organic produce which is used where possible in the restaurant of this and the sister hotel.
The Hotel has a host of facilities. The old village house opens out onto lovely landscaped gardens and the emphasis is very much on fitness and health. A lovely outdoor pool with wonderful views of the surrounding pine-clad countryside is an excellent place to relax. There is a heated indoor swimming pool, gymnasium and sauna. Tennis lessons can be provided on the all-weather tennis court. When you feel the need to expend a bit more energy, there are many hiking trails in the area, and the services of a guide are available if you wish to go further afield. Fishing trips can be organized from the port of Alcudia. There is also horse-riding (including a full day for experienced equestrians) nearby. If you are into the exotic and have a head for heights – helicopter tours and balloon trips are available. Mallorquin cookery courses are also available and are organized by three local Hotels in the Parc, one day in each Hotel kitchen.
The eleven bedrooms are tastefully decorated. There are 9 Junior Suites with their own terraces and Jacuzzis and two Double rooms with Jacuzzis. They come furnished with traditional Mallorquin fabrics and furniture. Facilities include Satellite T.V, Wi-Fi, Minbar and bathrobes. Several have four-poster beds. There are traditional beamed ceilings and terracotta floors in many of the rooms and communal areas.
The restaurant serves typically Mallorquin cuisine and the pretty patio courtyard is used whenever possible if weather permits. It is especially wonderful at night for dinner when the staff light it up with candles and torches – romance is truly in the air!!! Guests of this Hotel are invited to ring the changes by dining in the sister Hotel where a different menu is offered.
An ideal Hotel for those who want a peaceful getaway in a delightful setting. Walkers and cyclists will be spoilt for choice.
