Style Poised and polished possessió

Food and drink at Predi Son Jaumell

Hotel restaurant
The ex-El Bulli chef at the restaurant, Andreu Genestra, has skills worthy of where he honed them. The food is fresh and creative: dishes include monkfish with fennel and roasted plums, and beef with raisins and al dente vegetables, with a more casual menu of grilled meats, fish of the day and pasta at lunch. The traditional Mallorcan decor is simple: stone walls, wooden beams and linen-covered chairs, and hooks on the walls leftover from when the building was the estate’s farmhouse. The neutral palette is broken up by the row of blow-glass green lamps hanging by the terrace.
- Dress code Camouflage yourself in country casuals in complementary shades of bright white and beige.
- Top table Bathe in the natural light by the window, or nab a seat in the sun out on the terrace.
- Last orders You don’t have to worry about keeping time here: the restaurant opens at 7.30am and stays that way until 11pm.
- Room service You can order up anything from the restaurant while the kitchen's open.

In the know
Our favourite rooms
Wonder at the hooks and their possible uses in Room 3, a Junior Suite, which has a freestanding bath tub in the main bedroom and an arched stone ceiling. Spoiler: the room is the old pig sty, and the hooks were for weighing the inhabitants. The design of Grand Suite Room 2 gave new life to some old crockery by arranging broken bits of plates on a wall behind the bed; it also has easy access to the pool thanks to a set of French doors. The panorama prize has to go to Room 9 (a Junior Suite with Terrace) for its prime view of the castle, but if you want a private hammock-enhanced garden as well, go for Junior Suite 25.
Packing tips
Keen walkers don’t need to pack their walking poles – the hotel has a supply to loan to happy hikers.
Also
Keep an eye out for hidden relics from the estate’s 400-year past, including the three protected Bronze Age caves in the grounds, and a chapel with original doors and floors.
