Son Vida & Surroundings
Prestige residential hills above Palma
Son Vida is Mallorca's original luxury enclave — gated, wooded and set in the rolling hills five minutes above Palma. Built around three championship golf courses and anchored by two five-star hotels (Castillo Hotel Son Vida and the Arabella Sheraton), it has been the address of choice for international buyers, royalty and celebrities for over half a century.
The wider neighbourhood reaches across La Bonanova, Génova, Son Rapinya and Son Armadams. Together they offer a rare combination on the island: substantial villas and estates on large mature plots, sweeping views over Palma Bay and the cathedral, and the privacy of established residential streets — yet only minutes from Palma's old town, the marina and the airport.
The architecture spans grand Mediterranean mansions, classic golf-side residences and striking contemporary new builds. Wide private roads, mature landscaping and discreet 24-hour security define the area, and properties tend to come to market off-plan or through quiet referrals.
Buyers come here for prestige, privacy and proximity. Son Vida and its surroundings feel a world away from the coast, yet remain firmly inside the city's gravitational pull.
