The creators of award-winning Andalusian hideaway, Finca Cortesin to unveil an Island Idyll reborn - Son Net - Puigpunyent, Mallorca debuting spring 2023.
On this soul-stirring island, the pleasures are simple. Just a 15-minute drive from Palma in the foothills of the UNESCO World Heritage Tramuntana Mountains, is Son Net; a stylishly understated, art-filled hideaway on a private Majorcan estate dating back to 1672. Son Net is today newly independently co-owned and under the acclaimed management of the team behind Finca Cortesin - the enchanting, award-winning Southern Spanish bolthole in Andalusia - and is being lovingly and meticulously restored with respect and thoughtfulness, to re-emerge in early Spring 2023.
Over centuries, this Majorcan manor house was passed down through the hands of several prominent Spanish families and became one of the most prestigious residential estates on the island. With just 31 suites, upon reopening, Son Net will juxtapose elegant, palatial architecture with tastefully transformed interiors that are relaxed, romantic, and intimate; breath-taking views-for-days, citrus orchards, and lush Mediterranean gardens. Famed for its history and classical design, during its transformation, Son Net will preserve many of the mansion's original features: rustic beams, stone floors and archways, carved wooden ceilings, antique fireplaces, an original 17th century interior courtyard and spring-fed well, and private family chapel. There will also be a curated private art collection.
Spanning 57,000m2 of boundless private landscape, there will be multiple pools flanked by private shaded cabanas, encircled by impeccably tended lawns and flowerbeds that give way to an ecological vegetable and herb garden, small farm, and private vineyard. Food will all be locally sourced, with native orange and lemon trees growing on the bucolic estate, fresh seafood procured directly from the island, and fresh olive oil tastings from a century-old olive press. The vineyard will produce Malvasia white wine that supplies the large, open wine cellar and fuels delectable tastings.
The hotel's setting in the Tramuntana Mountains is one of the main attractions and forms the dramatic backdrop of Son Net - a heaven for walkers and hikers. Cycling is another of the best ways to see some of the island's hidden treasures and dramatic countryside. Slowing the pace, quiet country lanes wind to the scent of wildflowers and citrus blossom…
