To say we were pampered is an understatement. What an amazing property! The suite room we had was unbelievable. Perfectly designed in shape and size with a huge balcony overlooking the water. The butler service was quick and friendly and the room service is super fast. The food in each restaurant and bar is delicious(especially the Michelin star restaurant!) The wait staff everywhere was so pleasant(with the exception of maybe one or two waitresses, who were a bit rude and seemed to always be confused when we asked for something, and for the price we paid per night, was just a bit annoying to deal with). The spa pool area and saunas and steam rooms was .lievable. We went there everyday after sunning and relaxed in the heated pool and their various saunas(steam room, Finnish sauna, salt room, ice room). We are already thinking of coming back there for an anniversary moon!

I’ve got to admit that after an early morning flight and dealing with all the bros and hos at the Palma airport, I was a bit nervous about what Majorca would have in store for our holiday. Of course, from the minute we arrived at the St. Regis, those concerns were put to rest. It was paradise in paradise, sunny days in the mid eighties. We were promptly greeted by one of the hosts while a porter tended to our luggage. Seated on the beautiful wrap around terrace, we answered a few check in questions with our host and were treated to a welcome cocktail and snacks. At this early hour, our room was not ready so we just took a short walk to grab some lunch in Porto Portals. They had called us by the time we were finished and let us know everything was all set for us. And let me tell you, we were all set. Upgraded to a top floor suite with a killer beach and pool view in an enormous room that lacked nothing. The porter arrived as we did and explained a few things about the resort and provided some know how to all the switches and thoughtful touches of our suite. Our suite had an excellent designers touch to it, with impressive décor and paintings of some of Palma’s famous sites. There was no shortage of storage space in the entry hallway/dressing room. Bathroom was all marble, complete with double sinks, soaking tub, shower and separate toilet/bidet room that was even accessible from the entrance lobby. Full office desk with any kind supply or outlet you may need. There were chairs and a chase to relax in next to the mini bar up front by the windows in the lounge area. The bed itself was very comfy and I loved the ergonomic pillows that we found in the closet, slept like a baby. The balcony patio was another nice place to hang out and take in the view from the table or chase. Service was impeccable and the flawless way that everyone spoke Spanish and English made me ashamed to not be multilingual. We got hooked up with a nice breakfast rate and were very pleased with the buffet. I typically stuck to what was local and stuffed myself on chorizo, jamon, the fantastic oranges of the area and the sinfully good ensaimada. Staff got us set up with chairs and towels by the pool and helped out with the brellie for my fair skinned lady. I was also happy that even the valets were quick with taxis and spoke Spanish to our drivers to avoid any misunderstandings. We had a splendid stay here and an impeccable meal at Es Fum(attached a photo of the menu). The St. Regis didn’t miss a beat. I also learned a few things about the St. Regis and Majorca in general: –Started by John Jacob Astor –A commitment to technology which was clear with all of the outlets, lights and switches and full keypads on both sides of the bed(very thoughtful) that controlled everything from the lights to the ceiling fan and drapes –Known for the Butler service which we wised up to use to book tables for our dinner reservations, you’ll need them if you want a decent table anywhere –The oranges on Majorca are as good as you’ll ever eat –The train to Soller was a bunch of fun –There are a lot of Germans on Majorca and I was constantly high fived in my Deutschland kit by other supporters of the 2014 World Cup Champions –Bros don’t stay at the St. Regis, thankfully
