Son Julia´s noble ancestry
The rich history of Mallorca's finest luxury hotel
Son Julia derives its name from the Julia family, a noble family who owned vast tracts of Mallorca and the estate of Son Julia itself, dating back to the 15th century. The Julia family was abundantly wealthy, in 1523 the estate was valued at 7000 pounds and by the 1890s the great fecundity of the estate numbered over 7,500 almond trees, 1,000 fig trees and many carob, olive and fruit trees. One of the heirs, Pascual Felipe de Togores, 10th Count of Ayamans, played an important role in the neighbouring village of Llucmayor . In times of poverty, he offered employment and food on the grounds of Son Julia.
Today, Gran Hotel Son Julia has been completely restored, keeping intact some original features such as the well and the stone archways of the hotel. Son Julia now has 25 luxuriously designed rooms and impressive suites, each with private balconies and terraces, spacious bathrooms and offering guests the very best in technology, elegance and comfort.
