The best beaches, a mix of craziness and a very European environment make Palma de Majorca a true paradise. That's why Vueling flies to Palma de Majorca. Here are some suggestions to get the most out of your trip.
Hotels in PalmaIn Majorca and Palma de Majorca there are hotels for all tastes and pocket sizes, but since you save when flying with us take advantage to stay in some of these incredible hotels:
Convent de la MissioLocated in Palma 's old city, this hotel was once a convent. Despite having been completely remodelled, it has kept its stoic air of a time when priests served as missionaries here at this site which is coloured in white, its main colour. But don't worry; its ultra design and minimalist atmosphere are incredibly appealing to the eye and surprisingly cosy with natural elements and huge windows that masterfully combine the use of space and light. Let's not forget the sauna, the jacuzzi, steam baths, and the Zen-style solarium..Carrer de la Missió 7A Hotel TresThe Tres is a fusion of almost everything: antique with modern, city and country, Mediterranean and Scandinavian. Located in Palma 's old city, this elegant hotel has managed to salvage the remains of its old building structure (an antique small palace). The hotel has also managed to save the original pillars and beams which have been fused with the modern decor and structure of the new building while possessing the Scandinavian influence of the owners. Aside from the sauna and pool, the hotel has a terrace with spectacular mountain views, and views of the ocean and city. Each room has a prevailing colour and a large palm tree presides over the patio's interior in which breakfast is served.Apuntadores 3 Puro HotelLocated in the Lonja neighbourhood, the antique port of Palma , this hotel is an urban oasis. Puro, derived from "pura vida" ("pure life"), is a small antique palace re-done to have a more 21st century style. Its decor is eclectic with Zen influences while paying close attention to the smallest detail. It is a taste for all the senses, especially for a guest to relax by the pool on the flat roof or in their room in a designer bath equipped with all kinds of bath oils.Monte Negro 12 Palacio Ca Sa GalesaThe first thing that will impress you about this hotel/palace from 1576 is its spectacular view over Majorca 's Gothic cathedral. Located in downtown Palma , the Ca Sa Galesa is a small museum where one breathes in a peaceful and noble air filled with furniture, marble, hardwood floors, hand crafted crystal and wood from the last few centuries such as French clocks from the Imperial era; it is all exquisitely well-preserved. As if this weren't enough, take a dip in the Roman baths or relax on a hammock in the solarium. But of course, it is a bit expensive.Miramar , 8 Airport de Palma

S'Aigua 5 La LubinaIf you are in the mood for fish, something we recommend while staying in Palma would be to go by La Lubina. Even though fresh fish and seafood are the speciality here, we recommend the prawn stew or the "a la sal" fish. They also have delicious homemade desserts and a large selection of wines from Majorca and Catalonia.Muelle Viejo AramisWith a minimalist decor, Aramis is an Italian restaurant that also offers delicious international cuisine dishes with a modern touch.Calle Montenegro 1 TahiniIf we talk about cool restaurants, this one wins.
