Palma & Sóller – City Pulse, Orange Groves & a Night by the Sea
Mallorca is so much more than sun and beaches – it's an island filled with charming villages, historic trains, and luxurious hotels. Here you get to experience both the city pulse in Palma and the tranquil beauty of the Mediterranean – all with a journey through time and nature as the highlight.
First: Two nights in the heart of Palma
The journey begins with two nights at Hotel Palma Bellver Affiliated by Meliá, a stylish hotel on Palma's beautiful harbor promenade. Here you stay with sea views and a perfect starting point to explore the city's charming alleys, the cathedral La Seu, and the lively tapas bars in Santa Catalina.
You spend your days discovering Palma's rich history, shopping on Passeig del Born, and enjoying fresh seafood at one of the restaurants along the water. Perhaps the evening ends with a cocktail on the hotel's terrace as the sun slowly sets over the harbor.
Last but not least: The Orange Train to Sóller for a night in luxury
After two days in Palma, an unforgettable train journey through Mallorca's orange groves and mountain landscapes awaits. You board the El Tren de Sóller, the classic orange train that for over a hundred years has taken travelers from Palma to Sóller through the scenic Serra de Tramuntana.
The train, which is a vintage wooden tram from 1912, takes you on a winding journey through tunnels, viaducts, and valleys filled with orange and lemon trees. With the windows open, you can smell the scent of citrus and sea breeze – an experience that is as nostalgic as it is beautiful.
Once in Sóller city, you are met by a picturesque small town center with cobblestone streets and a lively square. Here you can sit down for a café con leche and a freshly baked ensaimada before continuing your journey.
From Sóller, you hop on the charming old tram that slowly rolls down to Port de Sóller. The tram bumps along the orange groves before it reaches the small harbor town by the sea – one of Mallorca's most peaceful and beautiful coastal pearls.
Here you check into Bikini Island & Mountain Hotel, a bohemian and luxurious boutique hotel with an unbeatable view of the sea and the Tramuntana mountains. The hotel offers relaxed but stylish decor, an infinity pool with sun loungers, and an atmosphere that breathes freedom and enjoyment of life.
The evening is best spent with a dinner at the hotel's restaurant NENI, where you can enjoy Mediterranean-inspired dishes with a view of the harbor. After a day of historic trains and expansive landscapes, there is no better place to unwind.
The perfect balance – city, nature, and sea
Why choose between Palma's pulse and Sóller's tranquility when you can experience both? With this setup, you get two nights in the heart of the city, a nostalgic train journey through Mallorca's most beautiful landscapes, and a night by the sea at one of the island's most relaxed luxury hotels.
