We had a good holiday once we arrived!  Unfortunately we were caught up in the massive IT problem. Our early Saturday morning plane was cancelled so we didn’t arrive at Sa Pobla until late Sunday night, missing nearly two days.

I would certainly recommend Son Pons and would stay there again.

The high point for us was the cooking at dinner.  The lady chef produced amazing sauces and delicious food.  

Everything was beautifully clean and the rooms were simple and we slept very well.

Best wishes

We had an absolutely amazing time at Son Pons. We loved the hotel so much, we would definitely go back there (I never go to the same place twice usually no matter how good the place is as I like to explore but this one is an exception). We love the hotel grounds, pool, the room and everything about it. As we walked in, we felt so relaxed. Loved the peace and quietness. Even our 8 year old daughter loved it so much she would loves to go back there again. She did not mind the quietness at all but enjoyed the whole beautiful surrounding. 

Mika who was at the reception made the holiday even more special. Nothing was too much for her. Always with a smile and ready to help no matter what. 

Paella night was also a hit. Amaka’s master class of how to make paella  was enjoyed by all and seafood paella was so delicious too. 

The rooms and surrounding area was all very clean and up together. Rooms are so spacious and nothing to complain about. There is no kettle in the room but we didn’t even need one. Mika was happy to provide one if we needed one. 

I would definitely recommend this place to anyone and I have already done so.

Breakfast was plentiful and had lots of choices. We enjoyed the breakfast overlooking green space. Evening menu is a bit on the expensive side. 

Bed could be a bit more comfortable but it was a massive bed. Room is so spacious and had everything we needed. 

Really loved the hotel so much. All positives and no negatives I can think of that stood out.

We will definitely go back.

Thank you Henrik for finding this place for us.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Son Pons.

A small rural hotel but the rooms were well appointed with comfy beds, the staff friendly and a very nice swimming pool.

The food was nicely prepared and reasonably priced, although the menu does not change often so would not suit for a long stay. Also it shuts 2 days per week but there are good places to eat nearby.

So, rating :

Service: 5
Food 4
Cleanliness 5
Value 5
Sleep 5

We would definitely consider coming again and recommend.

I’ve stayed in a lot of rural hotels and I’ve never had a welcome as I had at this one. We will return. We were so well treated all my stress and angst disappeared as we walked through the food!  Amaka is one amazing woman and Mika was just brilliant. Food was wonderful. Pool area was so well laid out and relaxing. Lots of shade. Thank you for this recommendation.  We wished we’d returned there fir our last 4 days!!!

Hi Henrik,

Thank you so much for your help, I have already sung your praises to others and indeed my friends who live near Soller. Your choices fitted exactly our requirements and without you I would not have been able to find these places.

Thank you.

Best wishes

Hi Henrik
All went well after our three hour flight delay which was boring! Son Pons was as lovely as usual they unfortunately had had a major thunderstorm so water was a little short did not bother us! But sadly the air conditioning didn’t work either and it was very hot. However they were very good on two counts on theTuesday fitted a new unit and then gave me a discount on my final bill which was very kind but it had been unbearably hot!
Thanks

Hi Henrik and thanks. I meant to leave some feedback in the guest book before we left but it was a bit early...

How would you rate the following from 1-5 where 5 is the best rating: 

Service:  5

Food: 4. I'd give it a 5 but the choice for children was limited. That said they were incredibly helpful in making a dish for my daughter who doesn't eat much meat. I would also agree with other comments that they should provide fresh coffee - not a machine. It is very easy to have fresh coffee these days. 

Cleanliness: 4 - the bathroom is quite tired now

Value for money: 4

Sleep quality: 4 - we were on a ground floor room and because the bathroom doors slide, we were woken up every time the room above us used the bathroom and slid the door open. I'd strongly suggest they oiled the doors...

Would you recommend the hotel to a friend? For sure

Would you like to write a couple of general sentences about your stay?

Thank you so much for the team at Son Pons for a wonderful four nights. We thought it was one of the most welcoming places we have stayed and they went above and beyond to make us feel at home. 

Dear Henrik
I’m sorry for the delay in responding. We had a lovely time at both Son Pons and El Elcinar. Both were comfortable and clean. The reception we got was friendly and very welcoming. Although the front of staff at El Elcinar (Delores) was exceptional. She went above and beyond to ensure that all our needs were catered for. She was just lovely with everyone. We would go back to both places (although we rarely go back anywhere-the world is too big!)
Let me know if you need any more
Thank you again

Henrik - just to confirm we're delighted with Son Pons, very peaceful and quiet in lovely countryside, as sure you know, so many tks for organising it for us, and the weather great. Could you possibly re-send the information on places to visit etc which you originally sent us when we booked which stupidly left behind?  regards

Hi Henrik,

Yes we had a good time at Son Pons thank you.

It is in a lovely peaceful rural setting. The accommodation was very nice if a bit rustic(rough concrete floors).

Only downside really was the little biting insects in the vicinity.

Anaka who did a lot of the cooking as well as the waiting on tables and reception duties was very nice as were the other staff and the food was always superb although 2 nights they did not do evening meals so we went to the Pizza places in Campanet. Which was fine.

She was a bit overloaded with work, not much help.

Given the above we would recommend the Hotel to a friend.

Service: 5
Food: 5
Cleanliness: 5
Value for money: 4
Sleep quality: 4

Best regards

I just wanted to email to thank you for such a lovely stay at Son Pons last week. We had such a wonderful time and it was just what we needed after a rather busy summer of work and numerous friends weddings!

Elke thank you for being so helpful with local, beach and restaurant recommendations. It was incredibly useful to have you around each day and really added to the friendly atmosphere of the hotel.

Dinner on both nights we stayed at Son Pons was absolutely delicious - the tabbouleh, chocolate fondant and paella being particular highlights.

Amaka is also a huge asset to the hotel, her cooking and smiling persona are already being sorely missed back in UK!

If we could change anything it would be the quality of the coffee offered at breakfast but this is very much a suggestion rather than a complaint.

Apart from that we cannot fault the hotel and want to renew our thanks for such a lovely holiday.

We very much hope to be back in the future but wish you all well in the meantime.

Very best wishes,

Good morning, 

I’m happy to review Son Pons. We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at Son Pons. The setting was beautiful, peaceful and quiet. The staff were very friendly and really helpful if you needed advice as to where to visit etc. Would love to return. 
Service 4 ( slightly disappointed we couldn’t get a drink on Sun evening) 
Food 4 ( didn’t have an evening meal) 
Cleanliness 5 
Value for money 5 
Sleep quality 5 

We would definitely recommend the hotel to friends. 

Regards,

Hi Henrik, having a fab time here at Son Pons. Thanks for your excellent recommendation as always. Best wishes,  

Really enjoyed our stay and felt welcomed and well looked after. As improvements; it would have been good for us if the rooms had had; Tissues, dressing gown(s) and a kettle (though this was provided on request). Really like the idea of Agrotourisme and would go down this route again of returning to Mallorca (though the weather let us down) How would you rate the following from 1-5 where 5 is the best rating: Service:4 – the people were good (especially Amaka) – just that on occasions there seemed to be too much for limited staff numbers to cope with Food:2 – Breakfast / 5 – evening meal – I really missed decent coffee for breakfast; there was a Nescafe machine which was not pleasant. Also, a greater range of fresh fruit (perhaps already prepared?). The evening meals were really good and, again, the service was great Cleanliness:5 – no complaints, Value for money:4 – would have been a 5 if there had been decent coffee, Sleep quality:5. Would you recommend the hotel to a friend? Yes

Dear Henrik, What a lovely peaceful hotel, almost like being in your own Villa but with everything done for you!  The service was superb, if anything was wrong it was mended immediately, couldn’t be more helpful booking restaurants etc.  The room was fantastic, so spacious with lots of places too store things with a fantastic bathroom and very comfortable large bed. All very clean. The only thing was the TV did not have many English channels!  But it was very cool and we hardly needed to use Air Con.  The idea of our little sitting out terrace with sun lounger and parasol was fantastic making it more private and the pool was lovely, never over crowded.  The breakfast was great could squeeze your own fresh orange juice and plenty  of selection.  We did not have dinner there though it was available. So we  would give them 5 for everything. Thank you so much and yes would def recommend to a friend suggest they book room 7!  but just add that it is rural and you have to drive everywhere, which was fine for us as I don’t drink! However it is reasonable close to some very good restaurants. Regards

Dear Henrik, We enjoyed our stay at these two hotels immensely. Son Pons, as you advised, is very different to the other hotel. We discovered the Albufera park not very far away, with its turtles and birds. Lounging by the pool was also so easy. The other hotel, Mat i Vent, the scenery at Banyalbufar is always stunning, and the water in the cove warm. Walking to Estellencz and Port es Calonge was easy. Dramatic weather overtook us on one walk- I guess that's the risk at this time of year. With so many eating places in Banyalbufar, we could go a different place each night. Son Tomas was best for its sunset and Paella.  Thanks for mediating our visit so efficiently

Hi Henrik, We had a great time thank you. Sorry my reply has taken so long, been all over the place since I got back from holiday and it now seems like a distant memory! Service:5, Food:2, Cleanliness:5, Value for money:4, Sleep quality:4. Hope this all helps and apart from the food (breakfast was great, but the rest sadly lacking), would definitely recommend the hotel! Best wishes

Ciao Henrik! How are you? Thank you for your interest! Our mallorcan holiday has been great! Beautiful Island and the Son Pons finca hotel perfect for us! The rural hotel Son Pons finca has been perfect for our holiday, in the countryside of Mallorca closed to the little town of Bùger, a peacefull place in the nature.  The hotel is an old traditional house restored with a beautiful garden all around and has got just 11 rooms, so is quiet in the middle of August too.  In the morning there' s a huge breakfast with many products of the agrirurisme perfect for any nationality. There are different kind of rooms, we were in the wood one, with a nice terrace and it's been comfortable. The beaches are 20 minutes far away by car, but the Son Pons is in the perfect area to discover the north area of Tramontana.  I will be back soon! Thank you Claudia for your hospitality in Son Pons and thanks Henrik for your usefull suggestions so preciouse!  I give you our ratings: Food: 5 for the amazing breakfast, we haven't tried the restaurant. Cleanliness: 5 housekeeping service  Value for money: 5  Sleep quality: 5 the best ever, peacefull place, really confortable bed. Would you recommend the hotel to a friend? Of course

Hello Henrik, I would answer as follows: Service: 4 Food: breakfast 4/ dinner 3 Cleanliness: 4 Value for money: 3.5 Sleep quality : 4 Yes, I would recommend the place, beautiful in the middle of the country. The comfort is fine but quite basic. The food (at night) is not their specialty however. Service and kindness. We followed your other recommendations (restaurant, etc) and were always positively surprised. Thanks again. Best,

We were made very welcome on arrival by Amaca, who got our stay off to a great start with champagne on the terrace. The hotel is beautiful and very relaxing. The breakfast was a wonderful buffet that ran until 10.30 am. A beautiful setting in the countryside that is expertly run by Claudia, who was the perfect hostess! How would you rate the following from 1-5 where 5 is the best rating:  Service: 5 Food: 3 Cleanliness: 5 Value for money: 4 Sleep quality: 5 Would you recommend the hotel to a friend? Yes

Dear Henrik, We are at the end of our holiday in Mallorca. We would like to thank you for the wonderful time we had the last ten days, both in Son Pons and in Can Verdera. We will give a lot of free publicity for your site and your professional assistance, on a rather short notice. Once again: thank you very much!
