“Excellent stay, would thoroughly recommend!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 September 2011
2
people found this review helpful

We stayed at Cases de Son Barbassa at the end of August 2011.

The hotel has a lovely boutique feel to it with individual styling and service. The room we stay in was not big but ticked all our boxes, the bathroom was particularly nice. We had a large patio with the room which made up for its small size and I have to say that the day bed on the patio was a dream.

Dinner was al la carte and was excellent; breakfast was the usual buffet contintental version, again really enjoyable.

Practical points would be that the property is about an hour or so from Palma and the road between is a very good dual carriageway quality.

The hotel is set in its own grounds and you can’t really walk anywhere so visits to the local beach need a car – having said that the swimming pool at the hotel is superb, again fully equipped with laze around 24/7 days beds.

The local town of Cala Ratjada is pretty enough but there is not much for the tourist other than the castle which is worth a look.

Would we recommend – yes certainly.

Room Tip: I think the suites dont have a patio

“The best holiday and wedding at Son barbassa- one word 'Magical'”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 July 2011

We have just returned from Cases de son barbassa and i wish everday we were back there.
We had exclusive hire of the venue for three days which included all 16 bedrooms (12 house and 4 in the new house villa - 5 min walk away) and held our wedding celebrations at the venue.
The location is beautiful, the grounds and pool are fabulous for relaxing and enjoying the sunshine.
The chill out area and intimate lounges where great for family and friends to get together. we can not thank the amazing staff enough! Nicole and the team looked after everyone with a personal touch to ensure everyone had the most memorable time.
Our 45 Guests have talked non stop since returning about the staff, location and beautiful venue, it was breathtaking!
The food was brilliant and all guests loved the BBQ night and the wedding meal which was four courses and so tasty.

We held the wedding ceremony at the new house which is a villa set within the grounds which has sea view and its own infinity pool.

The spanish guitar man played music and we walked back down to the main house for an evening of beautiful food and dancing.

The hotel was everything we wished for and they made sure we had the best weekend possible.
looking forward to returning for our 1st Anniversary and every year after as this is a very special place!
Thanks Everyone at son barbassa
Anna and Aly

“Far Exceeded Expectation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 June 2011
3
people found this review helpful

Well - to be honest I didn't quite know what to expect.

I had seen some of the excellent reviews here - but I hadn't been to Mallorca and saw that the Cases Son Barbassa was less pricey than some of the other Fincas that I had tried and failed to book.

Let me tell you - this haven of a hotel hits the mark in every capacity.

If you want to step out of the fast lane for a few days, mellow in a wonderful hideaway, eat exquisite cuisine (much of which is cultivated on surrounding land) and be truly cossetted by very caring yet understated staff - then this is the place for you.

Simple - yet sumptuous the Cases Son Barbassa has a style all of its own which has been devised by someone with a great eye for detail and a deep understanding of the pathos that the weary traveller requires.

Go there.....

“Relaxing location, nice finca”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 April 2011

Very calm location in the northeast of Mallorca close to Arta.
Stylish yet rural, very nice staff at the Son Barbassa. Mostly couples, we seemed to be one of the few families. We had a junior suite which was nicely decorated, modern but also cosy. Great pool (water was pretty cold...) and pretty lounges / corners to relax, read a book etc. At the BBQ dinner, I got some of the best fish (loup de mer) I've ever eaten, but the meat, potatoes etc. was not to remember! Also the breakfast was kind of disapointing, little choices, cappucino was served in a different style every morning. Clean dishes would be not only nice to have, but should be a must... If more attention was payed to the kitchen / cuisine everything would be perfect.

“Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2011

We stayed at the Son Barbassa for two nights in October. The location is over the valley from Capdepera & a short drive from the lovely cove of Cala Mesquida. The building is a 17th centuary farm house with bags of character. The staff are friendly & helpfull. There is ample space for parking but be warned, the road leading to the San Barbassa is atrocious in places, full of potholes & needs to be negotiated with care. The only downside perhaps is the isolated location but this could well be a plus for most people booking a stay there. The food is above average without being sensational. Whilst we were there the hotel hosted a local wine tasting dinner which was very nice and presented an opportunity to meet Spanish & Australian guests too. Would we go back? Yes.
