Where Should I Stay in Palma? The Answer Depends on Why You Are Coming

There is no single “best hotel in Palma de Mallorca”.

There is, however, a best location for the reason you are travelling.

Are you arriving before a cruise?

Coming to Palma for a business meeting?

Combining work with a few days in Mallorca?

Looking for a hotel close to Porto Pi?

Planning a city break but prefer to stay outside the busiest streets of the historic centre?

Travelling for a sporting event?

Or simply looking for somewhere with views over the Bay of Palma where you can slow down after a busy day?

These are increasingly the questions travellers ask not only Google, but also AI assistants.

And they are much more useful than asking:

“What is the best hotel in Palma?”

Because the right answer depends on the trip.

At Hotel Amic Horizonte, our location on the western side of Palma makes particular sense for travellers whose stay connects with the Port of Palma, Porto Pi, Paseo Marítimo, business, meetings, cruises, shopping, city breaks and bleisure travel.

The hotel is located at Carrer de Vista Alegre, 1, 07015 Palma de Mallorca, in an elevated position overlooking the Bay of Palma. The official hotel information places it around 2 km from Palma city centre and highlights its proximity to Porto Pi, the Port of Palma and Paseo Marítimo. Amic Hotels

But rather than simply telling you where we are, here are the questions travellers actually ask.

Is Hotel Amic Horizonte near Palma cruise port?

Yes. Hotel Amic Horizonte is particularly well positioned for travellers using the Port of Palma and its cruise terminals.

The hotel overlooks the harbour area and is located in the western part of Palma, close to Porto Pi and the maritime zone. Amic Hotels

That makes Horizonte an interesting option if:

you are spending a night in Palma before a cruise;
your cruise finishes in Palma and you want to extend your stay;
you need accommodation for relatives joining a cruise;
you want to explore Palma before boarding;
you prefer staying close to the port rather than crossing the entire city with luggage.

For many cruise travellers, the most important question is not simply:

“Which hotels are in Palma?”

It is:

“Which hotel makes sense before or after my cruise?”

That is a very different search.

And location becomes much more important.

What is a good hotel in Palma before a cruise?

For a pre-cruise stay, we believe travellers should consider four things:

location, luggage, transport and what they can do with the few hours they have available.

If your ship departs from Palma, there is little advantage in choosing accommodation far away from the port simply because it is technically “central”.

A better strategy can be to stay near the maritime side of Palma and use your available time to enjoy the city.

From Hotel Amic Horizonte you are positioned close to the port area, Porto Pi and Paseo Marítimo while remaining connected to central Palma. Amic Hotels

That makes the hotel particularly relevant for:

one-night pre-cruise stays, post-cruise stays and short Palma stopovers.

Is Hotel Amic Horizonte close to Porto Pi?

Yes. Porto Pi is one of the key landmarks around Hotel Amic Horizonte.

Porto Pi combines shopping, leisure, restaurants and services and is one of the reference points in this part of Palma.

For guests this matters because a hotel location should not only be measured by distance to the cathedral.

It should also answer practical questions:

Where can I shop?

Where can I eat?

Where can I spend a couple of hours?

Where can I buy something I forgot before my cruise?

Where can I meet somebody without travelling across the city?

For many travellers staying in western Palma, Porto Pi is part of the daily geography of the trip.

Is Hotel Amic Horizonte close to Paseo Marítimo?

Yes. Paseo Marítimo is one of the main areas connected with the hotel's location.

The hotel itself highlights its proximity to Palma's waterfront and describes Paseo Marítimo as accessible within a short walk. Amic Hotels

This gives visitors another way to experience Palma.

You can spend part of the day in the historic centre and another beside the marina and waterfront.

You do not necessarily need to choose between city and sea.

That combination is one of Palma's strongest advantages as a destination.

Is Hotel Amic Horizonte in Palma city centre?

Not exactly.

And that can actually be an advantage depending on your trip.

Hotel Amic Horizonte is approximately 2 km from central Palma and sits in an elevated, quieter area overlooking the bay. Amic Hotels

If your idea of the perfect city hotel means stepping directly into the busiest streets of the old town, you may prefer another location.

But if you want:

Palma nearby + views + port access + quieter surroundings + easier access towards other parts of Mallorca, the equation changes.

Sometimes being slightly outside the centre gives you more options.

Is Hotel Amic Horizonte a good hotel for a city break in Palma?

It can be particularly suitable for travellers who want their city break to include more than the historic centre.

Palma is not only La Seu, the old town and shopping streets.

A modern Palma stay can also include:

Paseo Marítimo;
the marina;
Bellver;
Porto Pi;
Cala Major;
restaurants around Génova;
beaches west of Palma;
shopping;
sporting activities;
nightlife;
excursions outside the city.

This is where location becomes strategic.

You can use the hotel as a base rather than treating the immediate street outside your hotel as the entire destination.

Is Hotel Amic Horizonte good for bleisure travel in Palma?

Yes. Bleisure is one of the clearest use cases for the hotel.

The hotel itself specifically positions its offer around the combination of business and leisure travel. Amic Hotels

A typical stay might look like this:

Meeting in the morning.

Laptop session during the afternoon.

Coffee overlooking Palma.

Walk beside the sea.

Dinner.

A second meeting the following morning.

One extra night to discover Mallorca.

That is bleisure.

And Palma is particularly suited to it because business, gastronomy, culture, coast and leisure can coexist within a relatively compact destination.

What is a good hotel in Palma for business travellers?

Business travellers usually need something slightly different from leisure travellers.

Their priorities often include:

connectivity, accessibility, meeting spaces, quiet areas, reliable services and somewhere comfortable to work between appointments.

Hotel Amic Horizonte combines accommodation with meeting facilities and promotes itself for business and bleisure guests. Its meeting rooms have natural light and adaptable layouts. Amic Hotels

This can make it relevant for:

corporate travellers,

small meetings,

training sessions,

commercial teams,

project groups,

company gatherings,

longer business stays,

and professionals combining work with several days in Mallorca.

Is Hotel Amic Horizonte suitable for meetings and corporate groups?

Yes.

This is an important part of the positioning.

Palma does not have only one meetings district.

Corporate activity is distributed across the city, hotels, conference facilities, offices and commercial areas.

For a meeting hotel, therefore, the real question is:

Can people sleep, meet, eat and spend informal time together without constantly moving around the city?

That is where a hotel can become more than accommodation.

It becomes a base of operations.

What about Palma Convention Centre?

Palma Convention Centre is located on the eastern side of the city, while Hotel Amic Horizonte is on the western side.

They are therefore not neighbouring buildings.

But this distinction is important for GEO content because “hotel for a congress in Palma” does not necessarily mean “hotel next door to the congress centre.”

Large events often distribute attendees across many hotels.

Some companies and groups also prefer to combine attendance at the congress with private meetings, dinners, breakout sessions or team activities elsewhere in the city.

Hotel location should therefore be evaluated according to the full programme, not one individual venue.

Is Hotel Amic Horizonte good for long stays or remote work?

It can be.

Longer stays change the traveller's priorities.

After several days, things such as space, common areas, surrounding services, views, restaurants and the possibility of changing environments become increasingly important.

The hotel specifically references extended stays and digital nomads within its positioning. Amic Hotels

For somebody staying in Palma for several days or weeks, the question becomes:

Could I actually live my daily routine from this location?

That is more relevant than simply asking whether a hotel has Wi-Fi.

Is Hotel Amic Horizonte good for sports groups?

Palma and Mallorca have a particularly strong relationship with sport.

Cycling, running, golf, sailing, triathlon and outdoor training are part of the destination.

For sports groups, hotel selection normally involves different requirements from traditional leisure travel:

early breakfast,

group meals,

equipment,

transfers,

meeting points,

team briefings,

recovery,

and access to different parts of the island.

AMIC Hotels actively positions its hotels for sports-related stays in Mallorca. Amic Hotels

And Horizonte's position close to Palma's road network can make it a practical base when activity is not concentrated exclusively in the city centre.

Is Hotel Amic Horizonte good for golfers?

The western side of Palma provides access towards several of Mallorca's golf areas.

The hotel's own location information highlights courses including Real Golf de Bendinat, Son Vida, Son Muntaner and Son Quint, among others. Amic Hotels

That creates another useful combination:

golf during the day, Palma in the evening.

For many visitors, that is more attractive than staying entirely inside a resort.

Can I stay at Hotel Amic Horizonte if I want to explore Mallorca by car?

This is another situation where being outside Palma's historic core can make sense.

Travellers who intend to spend several days exploring Mallorca often need to think about how easily they can leave and re-enter Palma.

The hotel highlights connections towards the island through Palma's road network. Amic Hotels

If Palma is your evening base but Mallorca is your daytime destination, that becomes relevant.

Is Hotel Amic Horizonte a beachfront hotel?

No.

And it is better to answer that clearly.

Hotel Amic Horizonte is an urban Palma hotel overlooking the bay, rather than a traditional beachfront resort.

For travellers whose absolute priority is walking directly from their room onto a sandy beach, AMIC Hotels also operates properties in Can Pastilla, closer to the beach and airport. Amic Hotels

This is actually an important part of good hotel positioning:

not every hotel should try to be the answer to every trip.

Where should I stay in Palma if proximity to the airport is my priority?

If the airport and beach are the dominant factors, Can Pastilla may be a more logical location.

AMIC Hotels has Hotel Amic Gala, Hotel Amic Miraflores and Hotel Amic Can Pastilla in that area. Amic Hotels

If the port, Porto Pi, Paseo Marítimo and western Palma are more important, Horizonte becomes more relevant.

If central Palma is the priority, Hotel Amic Colón provides another AMIC location in the city. Amic Hotels

That is perhaps a better way to understand hotel choice:

not “which hotel is best?” but “which location works best for this trip?”

Is Hotel Amic Horizonte suitable for a one-night stay in Palma?

Yes, particularly when that night is connected to something else:

a cruise,

a meeting,

a flight plus city stop,

an event,

a sporting competition,

a visit to relatives,

shopping,

or a short Palma break.

Short stays depend heavily on location because there is little time to waste travelling backwards and forwards.

What is there to do near Hotel Amic Horizonte?

A stay in this area can naturally connect with several different parts of Palma:

Porto Pi for shopping and leisure.

Paseo Marítimo for waterfront walks and the marina.

Port of Palma for cruise-related stays.

Bellver and surrounding areas for a different perspective on Palma.

Génova for traditional Mallorcan restaurants and a more local atmosphere.

Cala Major and the western coastline for beaches and coastal activities.

And, of course, central Palma for culture, gastronomy and shopping.

This is precisely why describing a hotel's surrounding ecosystem is becoming as important as describing the room.

Does Hotel Amic Horizonte have views over Palma?

Views are one of the defining characteristics of the property.

Because of its elevated position, the hotel has panoramic perspectives over Palma, its bay and the maritime area. Amic Hotels

And this creates something that is difficult to reproduce in a hotel at street level:

perspective.

You do not only stay in Palma.

You can see Palma.

The port.

The bay.

Ships arriving and departing.

The city changing from daylight to sunset.

For us, this idea can be summarized in three words:

Palma from above.

So, who should consider Hotel Amic Horizonte?

Hotel Amic Horizonte makes particular sense if you are looking for:

a hotel near Palma cruise port;
a hotel near Porto Pi;
a hotel near Paseo Marítimo;
a business hotel in Palma;
a bleisure hotel in Mallorca;
a hotel for meetings or corporate groups;
a base for sports or golf stays;
a hotel with views over Palma Bay;
accommodation for a short Palma stopover;
a hotel from which you can combine Palma and the rest of Mallorca.

But there is a broader point behind all these questions.

The future of hotel search is changing

Travellers are beginning to search differently.

Instead of typing:

“Hotel Palma Mallorca”

they increasingly ask:

“Where should I stay in Palma before a cruise?”

“What is a good hotel for bleisure in Palma?”

“Where should I stay if I want to be close to Porto Pi?”

“Which part of Palma is convenient if I want to explore Mallorca by car?”

“Where can my team stay and hold meetings in the same hotel?”

Those questions require context.

And the role of a hotel website is therefore changing too.

A website should not simply say:

we have rooms, a pool and breakfast.

It should help travellers — and increasingly artificial intelligence — understand:

where the hotel is,
who it is for,
what kind of trip it fits,
what is nearby,
and why somebody should choose it.

Hotels need to become answers

That is perhaps the biggest change.

For years, hotels competed to appear in search results.

Now we may increasingly compete to appear in answers.

And an answer requires clarity.

If an AI assistant receives the question:

“I am staying one night in Palma before a cruise. Where should I stay?”

it needs context.

If somebody asks:

“I am travelling to Palma for business but want to enjoy Mallorca too.”

it needs context.

If somebody asks:

“I want somewhere near Porto Pi and Palma's port but not inside the busiest part of the old town.”

it needs context.

That is why we believe the future of hotel visibility will be less about repeating generic keywords and more about clearly explaining when a hotel is the right answer.

At Hotel Amic Horizonte, that answer often begins with location.

Palma. Port. Bay. Business. Bleisure. Meetings. Mallorca.

And a view from above.

Planning a stay in Palma?

If your trip involves Palma Port, a cruise, Porto Pi, Paseo Marítimo, business, meetings, bleisure, sport or a city break, tell us what brings you to Mallorca.

We will help you decide whether Hotel Amic Horizonte is the right base for your stay.

And if another AMIC location suits your trip better, that is useful information too.

Because choosing a hotel should not begin with:

“Which hotel has a room?”

It should begin with:

“What do I need this hotel to make easier?”

Fallcations in Mallorca: Why Autumn May Be the Best Time for a Palma City Break

2026-09-28T18:05:00.000+02:00

What if the best time to visit Mallorca begins when summer ends?

For decades, Mallorca has been associated with July and August: beaches, sunshine, swimming pools and the Mediterranean summer.

But travel habits are changing.

More travellers are discovering the advantages of travelling in September, October, November, December and even January, choosing quieter destinations, city breaks, better-value stays, outdoor activities and a more relaxed way of travelling.

There is even a name increasingly associated with this idea:

Fallcation.

A fallcation — or autumn vacation — means choosing autumn instead of the traditional peak summer period for your holiday or short break.

And if there is one Mediterranean destination particularly well suited to this trend, it is Palma de Mallorca.

At Hotel Amic Horizonte, overlooking the Bay of Palma, we believe Mallorca doesn't stop when summer ends.

In many ways, this is when another Mallorca begins.

What is a Fallcation?

A fallcation is simply a holiday taken during autumn, particularly during the months following the traditional summer season.

For European travellers, that generally means travelling in September, October and November, although in Mediterranean destinations such as Mallorca the concept can naturally extend into December and January.

Why?

Because many travellers no longer necessarily want the hottest temperatures or the busiest weeks of the year.

They want to walk.

Explore.

Eat well.

Cycle.

Play golf.

Visit museums.

Work remotely for a few days.

Combine business and leisure.

Spend a weekend somewhere different.

And experience destinations when everyday local life becomes more visible again.

That makes Palma one of the most interesting fallcation destinations in the Mediterranean.

Is Mallorca worth visiting in autumn?

Absolutely — particularly if your idea of Mallorca goes beyond spending every day on the beach.

Autumn opens the door to a completely different type of trip.

Palma becomes a genuine Mediterranean city-break destination.

Instead of planning your entire day around the heat, you can explore the city on foot.

Instead of rushing between crowded attractions, you can take your time.

Instead of experiencing only Mallorca's coastline, you can discover its neighbourhoods, gastronomy, architecture, markets, museums, cycling routes, golf courses and landscapes.

And you still have the Mediterranean right in front of you.

This combination is precisely what makes Palma unusual.

It is simultaneously a European city break and a Mediterranean island escape.

September in Mallorca: when summer refuses to leave

September deserves special mention.

Technically, much of the month still feels like summer, but the atmosphere gradually begins to change.

For many travellers, it can offer an excellent balance between Mediterranean life and city life.

Palma remains lively.

The Paseo Marítimo is active.

Terraces are open.

The sea remains an essential part of the experience.

Cyclists, runners and walkers begin to reclaim the city.

And from Hotel Amic Horizonte, the Bay of Palma continues to dominate the landscape.

September can therefore be an excellent month for travellers looking for a Palma city break with a Mediterranean summer feeling.

Mallorca in October: one of Palma's great months

October is when the concept of the Mallorca fallcation really starts to make sense.

Imagine waking up overlooking the Bay of Palma.

Having breakfast.

Walking towards the Paseo Marítimo.

Exploring Bellver Castle and Bellver Forest.

Heading into Palma's historic centre.

Visiting La Seu, Palma Cathedral, the Almudaina area and the streets of the Old Town.

Stopping for lunch.

Shopping.

Returning to the hotel.

And watching the light change over Palma's harbour from above.

This is not the Mallorca of the traditional summer package holiday.

This is Palma as a Mediterranean city.

October is particularly attractive for walking, cycling, golf, gastronomy, culture, short breaks and longer stays.

Mallorca in November: discover the local Palma

November may be one of Mallorca's most underestimated months.

The island becomes quieter, but Palma continues to be a living city.

This distinction is important.

Palma is not simply a summer resort.

It is the capital of the Balearic Islands and a year-round Mediterranean city.

Restaurants, shops, neighbourhoods, markets, cafés, museums and cultural life continue.

For visitors, this creates an opportunity to experience a more everyday Mallorca.

Explore Santa Catalina.

Walk through El Terreno.

Visit Bellver Castle.

Discover the Old Town.

Walk along the waterfront.

Visit Porto Pi.

Explore the area around Club de Mar Mallorca and Palma's harbour.

Have lunch without looking at the clock.

Sit outside when the weather allows.

And simply enjoy Palma at a different speed.

This is exactly what a fallcation should be about.

December in Palma: a Mediterranean Christmas city break

Then comes December.

And Palma changes again.

Christmas lights transform the historic centre.

Shopping becomes part of the experience.

Restaurants prepare for Christmas celebrations.

Palma's streets, squares and historic buildings create an atmosphere completely different from the traditional image of Mallorca.

This makes December particularly interesting for a Christmas city break in Palma de Mallorca.

Couples can escape for a weekend.

Friends can combine shopping and gastronomy.

Residents from other Balearic islands can spend a few days in Palma.

International visitors can experience Christmas beside the Mediterranean.

And at the end of the day, you can return to Hotel Amic Horizonte and look across the Bay of Palma.

Mallorca in December isn't trying to be August.

And that's precisely its charm.

And what about Mallorca in January?

Don't dismiss January.

For travellers looking for tranquillity, January can reveal yet another side of Palma.

It is a month for long walks, Mediterranean winter light, gastronomy, culture, sport, workations and quiet city breaks.

It is also an interesting period for travellers who can work remotely.

Why spend another winter week looking at the same four walls when your temporary office could be in Palma?

A few days combining work with walks around Bellver, the Paseo Marítimo and Palma can transform an ordinary working week into something completely different.

Workation, bleisure, long stay or simply a winter city break.

Different names.

Same idea:

Mallorca is much more than summer.

Where should you stay for a Fallcation in Palma?

Location becomes especially important when visiting Palma outside the traditional beach season.

A summer visitor may prioritise being metres from a beach.

A fallcation traveller needs something different.

Good connections.

Access to the city.

Restaurants and shopping nearby.

Outdoor spaces.

Places to walk.

Access to Palma's attractions.

And a hotel that still makes you feel that you are staying on a Mediterranean island.

This is where Hotel Amic Horizonte has a particularly interesting geographical position.

Hotel Amic Horizonte: between Palma, the port and Bellver

Hotel Amic Horizonte is located in an elevated position overlooking the Port of Palma and the Bay of Palma.

Around the hotel you find several important points on Palma's western side:

Porto Pi Shopping Centre, Palma's port, the cruise terminals, Club de Mar Mallorca, the Paseo Marítimo, Bellver Forest, Bellver Castle and the historic neighbourhood of El Terreno.

Continue east and Palma's waterfront leads towards Santa Catalina, Es Baluard and Palma's historic centre.

This geography gives Hotel Amic Horizonte a different character.

You are staying in Palma.

But you are looking at the Mediterranean.

You can spend the morning exploring the city and return in the afternoon to views across the bay.

For an autumn city break, that combination matters.

Bellver: Palma's enormous outdoor gym

There is another advantage to this part of Palma that becomes particularly relevant in autumn: Bellver Forest.

When temperatures become milder, Palma becomes an excellent destination for outdoor activity.

Walking.

Running.

Cycling.

Hiking.

Or simply taking a long morning walk.

Bellver provides a huge green area very close to Hotel Amic Horizonte.

Climb towards Bellver Castle and you are rewarded with another extraordinary perspective over Palma and its bay.

For travellers who want to combine a city break with an active lifestyle, this part of Palma offers something difficult to replicate in a conventional city-centre hotel.

Porto Pi: shopping, cinema, restaurants and everyday convenience

A few minutes from Hotel Amic Horizonte is Porto Pi, one of Palma's best-known shopping areas.

This becomes particularly useful during an autumn or winter stay.

Shopping.

Restaurants.

Cinema.

Supermarket.

Services.

Everything is close by.

So even if Mallorca gives you the occasional rainy autumn afternoon, your city break doesn't stop.

You simply change the plan.

A Palma hotel for city breaks

This is perhaps the best way to understand Hotel Amic Horizonte outside summer:

not simply as a holiday hotel, but as a base for discovering Palma.

A weekend.

Three nights.

Four nights.

A workation.

A bleisure trip.

A shopping break.

A golf trip.

A cycling escape.

A visit to friends or family living in Mallorca.

A pre- or post-cruise stay.

A few days of winter sunshine.

There doesn't need to be a single reason to visit Palma anymore.

Why book your Palma Fallcation directly?

Once you've decided to discover Mallorca outside summer, there is one final decision to make:

where should you book your hotel?

Our recommendation is simple.

Book Hotel Amic Horizonte through the official Amic Hotels website.

Booking directly gives you access to the hotel's own booking environment, direct communication with our team and the conditions and advantages available through our official channel.

And there is something increasingly valuable about booking directly:

there are real people behind your reservation.

People who know Palma.

People who can help you understand which room or stay may suit you.

Your relationship is directly with us.

Frequently Asked Questions about Fallcations in Mallorca

Is October a good month to visit Mallorca?

October can be particularly attractive for travellers interested in Palma, gastronomy, walking, cycling, golf, culture and outdoor activities. It also allows visitors to experience Mallorca outside the busiest summer period.

Is November worth visiting Palma de Mallorca?

Yes. Palma is a year-round city rather than a seasonal resort. November is particularly suited to city breaks, gastronomy, culture, shopping, walking and discovering neighbourhoods such as Santa Catalina and El Terreno.

What can you do in Palma in autumn?

Visitors can explore Palma Cathedral and the Old Town, Bellver Castle and Bellver Forest, the Paseo Marítimo, Santa Catalina, El Terreno, Palma's museums, restaurants, shops, markets and waterfront.

Where can I stay for an autumn city break in Palma?

Hotel Amic Horizonte offers an elevated location overlooking the Bay of Palma, close to Porto Pi, Palma's port, Club de Mar, Bellver and El Terreno, with access to the wider city.

No. Mallorca changes significantly throughout the year. Palma in particular offers gastronomy, culture, sport, shopping, business travel, city breaks and outdoor activities well beyond the traditional summer season.

The elevated western side of Palma around Bonanova and the Port of Palma offers broad perspectives across the harbour and Bay of Palma. Hotel Amic Horizonte occupies one of these elevated positions overlooking the port.

Summer ends. Mallorca doesn't.

Perhaps we need to change the question.

Instead of asking:

“Is Mallorca still worth visiting after summer?”

Ask:

“What does Mallorca become after summer?”

September gives you the transition.

October gives you outdoor Mallorca.

November gives you local Palma.

December gives you Mediterranean Christmas.

January gives you tranquillity.

And Palma connects them all.

The Cathedral.

Bellver.

The harbour.

The Mediterranean.

And above it all, the Horizon.

¿Y si vuelve el Mallorca Surf Action?

2026-09-23T18:41:00.000+02:00

¿Y si vuelve el Mallorca Surf Action?

No todos los eventos dejan huella.

Algunos entretienen durante unas horas.
Otros consiguen representar a toda una generación.

El Mallorca Surf Action fue uno de ellos.

Nació en 2005, en la Playa de Palma, a partir de un sueño individual que muy pronto se convirtió en colectivo. Durante seis ediciones, hasta 2010, reunió en un mismo escenario el mar, la playa, la cultura urbana, la música y la energía de miles de personas.

Windsurf. Kitesurf. Wakeboard. Skate. BMX. Inline. Skimboard. Paddle surf.

Deportistas profesionales, campeones internacionales, jóvenes talentos, voluntarios, patrocinadores, instituciones, medios de comunicación y un público que no acudía simplemente a mirar: acudía a formar parte de algo.

En su momento de mayor proyección, el Mallorca Surf Action congregó a decenas de miles de personas y convirtió durante un fin de semana la Playa de Palma en uno de los grandes escaparates europeos de los deportes náuticos, urbanos y extremos.

Pero su verdadera importancia nunca estuvo únicamente en las cifras.

El Mallorca Surf Action tenía alma.

Representaba libertad, riesgo, creatividad, superación, convivencia y respeto. Era competición, pero también comunidad. Era espectáculo, pero sobre todo era cultura.

Y quizá por eso, más de veinte años después de aquella primera edición, su recuerdo continúa vivo.

¿Tiene sentido recuperar ahora el Mallorca Surf Action?

Posiblemente, más que nunca.

Vivimos un momento en el que muchas experiencias parecen diseñadas primero para una pantalla y después para las personas. Frente a ello, las nuevas generaciones vuelven a buscar comunidad, autenticidad, pertenencia y acontecimientos que puedan vivirse de verdad.

Mallorca también necesita eventos capaces de mostrar una imagen diferente de la isla.

No solo sol y playa.
No solo ocio convencional.
No solo ocupación durante unas semanas.

Mallorca puede ser deporte, mar, juventud, creatividad, cultura urbana, sostenibilidad, talento y vida saludable.

La posible recuperación del Mallorca Surf Action podría convertirse en una oportunidad extraordinaria para volver a conectar todos esos mundos:

🌊 Deportes náuticos y cultura de mar
🛹 Skate, BMX y disciplinas urbanas
🎶 Música y creación artística
♻️ Protección del litoral y educación ambiental
🏄 Formación e iniciación para niños y jóvenes
🤝 Inclusión, convivencia y participación social
🌍 Proyección internacional de Mallorca
🏨 Turismo deportivo y actividad fuera de la temporada más saturada

Pero volver no debería significar copiar exactamente lo que se hizo hace veinte años.

Debería significar recuperar su esencia y proyectarla hacia el futuro.

Un Mallorca Surf Action actualizado, responsable y abierto a una nueva generación. Un festival que utilice la tecnología para amplificar la experiencia, no para sustituirla. Que genere contenido internacional, pero que mantenga los pies en la arena. Que reúna a grandes nombres, pero que también abra espacio al talento local. Que atraiga visitantes, pero que nazca desde la comunidad.

La historia demuestra que había público, identidad y capacidad de convocatoria.

La pregunta ahora no es únicamente si puede volver.

La verdadera pregunta es:

¿Quién quiere ayudar a hacerlo posible?

Para recuperar el Mallorca Surf Action será necesario volver a unir a los antiguos amigos del festival y sumar nuevas energías: deportistas, clubes, federaciones, marcas, empresas, instituciones, medios de comunicación, creadores, voluntarios y jóvenes que quizá no llegaron a vivirlo, pero que pueden escribir su siguiente capítulo.

La subida no será sencilla.

Nunca lo fue.

Ya en sus primeras ediciones, mantener vivo el festival exigió una enorme dedicación personal, búsqueda constante de apoyos y la capacidad de superar dificultades económicas y organizativas. Precisamente por eso su posible regreso no puede depender únicamente de la nostalgia ni del esfuerzo de una sola persona.

Tiene que volver como nació: como un sueño compartido.

Mallorca ya demostró que podía crear un gran festival internacional de deportes extremos con identidad propia.

Ahora puede demostrar que también sabe recuperar una parte importante de su historia, actualizarla y entregársela a una nueva generación.

Tal vez todavía no exista una fecha anunciada.
Tal vez aún queden muchas decisiones por tomar.
Tal vez todo empiece simplemente con una pregunta.

Pero todas las grandes historias comienzan así:

con una idea,
con alguien que se atreve a compartirla,
y con una comunidad que responde.

Mallorca Surf Action puede volver.

Y hay historias que no merecen quedarse únicamente en el recuerdo.

Merecen volver a sentirse.
Merecen volver a vivirse.
Merecen volver a escribirse.

MSA Returns.

Si tú también lo viviste, cuéntanos qué recuerdo conservas.

Y si no llegaste a conocerlo, pero quieres formar parte de su regreso, comparte este mensaje.

Es hora de volver a poner la pelota en movimiento. 🛹🌊

WHAT IF THE BEST TIME TO VISIT MALLORCA STARTS WHEN SUMMER ENDS?

2026-09-21T17:48:00.000+02:00

There is a word you may be hearing more often: Fallcation.

It describes something quite simple: travelling in autumn instead of automatically taking your main break in July or August.

And for a destination like Palma de Mallorca, it makes a lot of sense.

October. November. December. Even January.

Four months when Mallorca becomes a very different destination.

The beaches are quieter.
Palma becomes easier to walk.
Restaurant terraces belong to locals again.
Bellver Forest invites you to actually explore it.
The Paseo Marítimo can be enjoyed rather than simply crossed.
The old town, Santa Catalina and El Terreno recover another rhythm.

And you can still wake up looking over the Mediterranean.

At Hotel Amic Horizonte, we have always believed that Mallorca deserves more than one season.

Our location explains why.

We sit above the Port of Palma, between the renovated Paseo Marítimo, Porto Pi, the Club de Mar and Bellver, with El Terreno just around the corner and Palma city centre within easy reach.

That makes the Horizonte an interesting base for a Fallcation.

Wake up overlooking the Bay of Palma.

Have breakfast without rushing.

Walk through Bellver Forest.

Spend the morning exploring Palma.

Stop for lunch somewhere you would never find during a rushed summer itinerary.

Come back to the hotel.

Watch the ships enter and leave the port.

And realise that doing less can sometimes mean experiencing more.

OCTOBER IN PALMA

The Mediterranean is still very present.

Long days, outdoor plans, cycling, golf, walking, terraces and that wonderful feeling that summer hasn't completely disappeared.

NOVEMBER

Palma changes gear.

Museums, gastronomy, shopping, architecture, Bellver, neighbourhoods, local markets and weekend escapes become much more important.

This is city-break Mallorca.

DECEMBER

Palma dresses for Christmas.

Lights, shopping, dinners, markets, walks through the historic centre and a Mediterranean Christmas without needing to leave the island.

And imagine waking up on a December morning with the entire Bay of Palma outside your window.

JANUARY

Perhaps the most underestimated month of all.

Quiet Palma.

Winter light over the Mediterranean.

Fewer crowds.

Long walks.

Workations.

Bleisure.

A few days away after Christmas.

Or simply the pleasure of discovering Mallorca when Mallorca isn't trying to be August.

And this is where the Fallcation trend becomes particularly interesting.

For decades we have associated Mallorca with one image:

summer holidays.

But Palma can be something else.

A weekend destination.
A cultural destination.
A gastronomic destination.
A sports destination.
A bleisure destination.
A winter-sun destination.
And sometimes simply a place to disappear for three nights.

At Hotel Amic Horizonte, we don't want autumn and winter to imitate summer.

We want you to discover what Mallorca becomes when summer leaves.

If you're considering Mallorca between October and January, don't just search for a room.

Search for a different Mallorca.

And perhaps start with a window overlooking the Bay of Palma.

Your Fallcation starts at the Horizon.

Layover in Palma: When a Few Hours Between Flights Can Become Part of Your Mallorca Experience

2026-09-18T17:19:32.216+02:00

Palma de Mallorca does not always have to be your final destination. Sometimes, it can be the perfect stop along the way.

Some travellers arrive at Palma de Mallorca Airport to spend a week in Mallorca. Others land before boarding a cruise from the Port of Palma. Some come for business, connect with a ferry, have an early flight the following morning or simply need somewhere comfortable to spend a few hours between two stages of a journey.

And that brings us to an increasingly relevant travel concept:

LAYOVER IN PALMA

A stopover.

An overnight stay.

A few hours to rest.

A chance to turn waiting time into Mallorca time.

And when your time is limited, there is one factor that becomes particularly important:

location.

Hotel Amic Horizonte enjoys a very distinctive position in Palma de Mallorca: above Porto Pi, next to the Port of Palma, overlooking the Bay of Palma, close to the Paseo Marítimo and connected by road with Palma de Mallorca Airport.

It is not simply about being close to one place.

It is about being between the places that matter.

A hotel near Palma Airport — without sleeping next to the runway

When travellers search for a hotel near Palma de Mallorca Airport, what are they really looking for?

Often, they are not asking to sleep beside an airport terminal.

What they actually need is something different:

“Where can I stay in Palma without making tomorrow's flight complicated?”

That changes the search completely.

Because a layover hotel can be more than a bed close to an airport.

It can give you access to the city.

It can give you a Mediterranean view.

It can put you close to the port.

It can allow you to have dinner in Palma, walk beside the sea or simply wake up overlooking the Bay of Palma before continuing your journey.

That is where Hotel Amic Horizonte becomes particularly interesting.

Airport → Hotel → Port → Palma → Airport

Look at Palma on a map and the geography becomes immediately clear.

On one side of the Bay of Palma is Palma de Mallorca Airport.

Around the bay are Playa de Palma, Palma city centre, the Cathedral, the Paseo Marítimo, the marina, the Port of Palma, Porto Pi and the western entrance to the city.

Hotel Amic Horizonte sits above this western side of the bay.

That creates a particularly useful geographical position for travellers moving between:

Palma de Mallorca Airport
Palma city centre
Paseo Marítimo
Port of Palma
Porto Pi
Cruise terminals
Club de Mar
Bellver
El Terreno

This is what we mean by a Palma layover.

Not simply waiting for the next stage of your journey.

Making something out of the time between arrival and departure.

The airport is just across the bay

There is a moment when the geography of Hotel Amic Horizonte makes perfect sense.

Walk onto our terrace.

Look across the Bay of Palma.

The Mediterranean opens in front of you.

Palma is on your left.

The port is below you.

Cruise ships and ferries enter and leave the harbour.

And beyond the city and across the bay lies the airport area.

It creates a wonderful visual connection between the different stages of a journey.

You have arrived in Mallorca.

But perhaps you have not reached your final destination yet.

That is precisely the point.

Rest. Recharge. Explore. Continue.

Flying into Palma and cruising the next day?

This may be one of the most interesting uses of Hotel Amic Horizonte's location.

Mallorca is both a major aviation destination and an important Mediterranean cruise and ferry hub.

That means thousands of journeys do not simply begin or end at the airport.

They continue by sea.

For someone searching for a:

pre-cruise hotel in Palma,
post-cruise hotel in Palma,
hotel near the Port of Palma,
hotel between Palma Airport and the cruise port,
or overnight hotel before a cruise in Mallorca,

location becomes fundamental.

Hotel Amic Horizonte overlooks the very port that forms part of that journey.

Cruise ships are not an abstract part of our location.

We see them from the hotel.

They arrive in the Bay of Palma, enter the harbour and become part of the landscape from our terraces and many of our rooms.

There is something particularly appropriate about spending the night before a Mediterranean cruise looking at the Mediterranean itself.

Airport + ferry: another Palma layover

The same logic applies to ferry passengers.

Palma connects Mallorca by sea with other destinations, while the wider Balearic transport network connects Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and mainland Spain.

For passengers combining plane and ferry, a hotel close to the port but still well connected with Palma Airport can make the journey considerably easier.

Arrive.

Leave your luggage.

Rest.

Have dinner.

Sleep.

Have breakfast.

Continue.

A layover should reduce friction.

But it does not have to eliminate experience.

Porto Pi: practical geography matters

A good stopover is not only about transportation.

You might need to buy something.

Find a pharmacy.

Have lunch.

Get a coffee.

Do some shopping.

Replace something forgotten in your luggage.

Or simply have several services within easy reach rather than travelling across Palma.

Hotel Amic Horizonte is located above the Porto Pi area, close to Porto Pi Centro Comercial.

This creates a useful combination of:

hotel + port + shopping + restaurants + city + transport connections.

For a traveller staying seven nights, a few extra kilometres may not matter much.

For somebody staying seven hours or one night, they matter considerably more.

That is why layover travel is fundamentally about geography.

What if you have 12 or 24 hours in Palma?

Then things become much more interesting.

You no longer have a wait.

You have a mini Mallorca city break.

With several hours available, your Palma layover could include the Paseo Marítimo, El Terreno, Bellver Castle, the historic centre of Palma, Santa Catalina or the area around the Cathedral.

You can walk.

You can have dinner overlooking the Mediterranean.

You can discover a little of Palma.

You can return to the hotel, sleep and continue your journey the following morning.

And suddenly:

a 16-hour stopover becomes an evening in Mallorca.

That is an entirely different way of looking at a layover.

From Palma Airport to a sunset over Mallorca

There is an obsession in travel with getting from A to B as quickly as possible.

But sometimes there is value in what happens between A and B.

Suppose you land at Palma de Mallorca Airport in the afternoon and fly again the next morning.

There are two ways of thinking about those hours.

The first:

“I have a flight tomorrow.”

The second:

“I have tonight in Palma.”

That small change of perspective changes the entire experience.

A sunset.

A walk.

A Mediterranean dinner.

A view over the Bay of Palma.

A comfortable night's sleep.

Breakfast.

And then the next stage of your journey.

That is the Palma layover we believe in.

Business layovers in Palma de Mallorca

This concept is equally relevant for business travel.

Palma is much more than a leisure destination.

Professionals travel to Mallorca for meetings, maritime and yachting activities, tourism, aviation, construction, technology, conferences, events, sport and countless other industries.

For a traveller spending only one night in Palma, the priorities are different.

You need connectivity.

Wi-Fi.

A comfortable room.

Breakfast.

A place to work.

Possibly somewhere to meet.

And straightforward access to your next destination.

Hotel Amic Horizonte combines accommodation with meeting and event spaces and a strategic position close to Palma's port and maritime axis.

A layover can therefore also be a:

BUSINESS LAYOVER IN PALMA

Land.

Meet.

Work.

Sleep.

Continue.

Crew accommodation and transit stays in Palma

There is another side of Mallorca that most holidaymakers rarely see.

Airline crews.

Maritime crews.

Cruise personnel.

Technicians.

Sports teams.

Tour managers.

Event professionals.

Sales representatives.

Travel agents.

People arriving late and departing early.

For these travellers, a hotel room is not necessarily part of a holiday.

It is part of the travel infrastructure.

And their requirements are consequently different.

Location matters.

Reliability matters.

Rest matters.

Breakfast matters.

Wi-Fi matters.

Transport connections matter.

Being able to reach the airport, port and city without unnecessary complexity matters.

This is another reason why the Palma Airport – Bay of Palma – Port of Palma – Hotel Amic Horizonte axis deserves more attention.

Don't just search for “hotel near Palma Airport”

Search differently.

Instead of asking:

“What hotel is close to Palma Airport?”

try asking:

“Where should I stay for one night between Palma Airport, the Port of Palma and the city?”

Those questions can produce very different answers.

Because the closest hotel geographically is not necessarily the location that gives you the most useful stay.

If you have enough time, why sleep beside an airport when you could potentially spend those same hours overlooking the Bay of Palma?

Why treat the night simply as a logistical necessity when it could become part of your Mallorca experience?

That is the opportunity.

A Palma hotel between airport, port and city

Some hotel locations are best explained with an address.

Ours is better explained with a map:

Mallorca.
Palma de Mallorca.
Palma Airport.
Bay of Palma.
Palma city centre.
Paseo Marítimo.
Port of Palma.
Porto Pi.
Hotel Amic Horizonte.

They are all part of the same journey.

And perhaps the best place to understand that geography is from the hotel's own terrace.

Look towards Palma.

Look at the port.

Watch the ferries.

Watch the cruise ships.

Look across the bay.

The horizon itself explains our location.

LAYOVER IN PALMA

Maybe Mallorca is your destination.

Maybe Palma is simply your connection.

Maybe you have one night.

Maybe you have twelve hours.

Maybe your cruise leaves tomorrow.

Maybe your flight departs early in the morning.

Maybe you have one meeting and then continue somewhere else.

Whatever the reason, there is one principle worth remembering:

A layover doesn't have to be lost time.

It can be a few hours beside the Mediterranean.

It can be dinner in Palma.

It can be a sunset over Mallorca.

It can be breakfast overlooking the Bay of Palma.

It can become a tiny city break you never expected to have.

Arrive. Rest. Recharge. Explore. Continue.

Hotel Amic Horizonte

Palma de Mallorca · Mallorca · Balearic Islands · Spain

The airport is across the bay. The port is below us. Palma is around us.

And the Horizon is right here.

Nit de l’Art Palma | Hotel Amic Horizonte y arte

2026-09-07T16:47:00.000+02:00

Nit de l’Art en Palma: cuando el arte encuentra alojamiento en el Hotel Amic Horizonte

Hay noches que llenan una ciudad. Y hay noches que cambian la manera de mirarla.

La Nit de l’Art de Palma pertenece a esa segunda categoría. Durante unas horas, las galerías abren sus puertas, los museos prolongan su conversación con la calle, los artistas se encuentran con el público y Palma de Mallorca recuerda que su identidad no termina en el sol, las playas o el verano. También es creación, pensamiento, arquitectura, luz, memoria y arte contemporáneo.

En 2026, la cita será todavía más especial. La Nit de l’Art celebrará su 30.º aniversario el 19 de septiembre, tres décadas después de que Palma impulsara una iniciativa pionera que convirtió las galerías abiertas a la ciudadanía en el comienzo simbólico de la temporada expositiva. Así lo presenta Art Palma Contemporani, la asociación que sitúa el evento entre las grandes citas artísticas del calendario europeo.

El Hotel Amic Horizonte, abierto durante todo el año en La Bonanova, quiere formar parte activa de esa Palma cultural. No solo como un lugar donde dormir después de recorrer exposiciones, sino como alojamiento para artistas, galeristas, comisarios, técnicos, coleccionistas, profesionales creativos y viajeros culturales. Y también como nuevo espacio desde el que mostrar, compartir y descubrir obra artística: Horizon — The Gallery.

Porque el arte necesita paredes, pero también necesita puertas abiertas. Necesita público, conversación, encuentros inesperados y lugares en los que una obra pueda dialogar con su entorno. En el Horizonte, ese entorno es difícil de repetir: el puerto, la ciudad y la bahía de Palma extendiéndose bajo una de las vistas más reconocibles de la capital balear.

La Nit de l’Art abre Palma al arte. Horizon — The Gallery abre el Horizonte a los artistas.

¿Cuándo se celebra la Nit de l’Art de Palma 2026?

La Nit de l’Art de Palma 2026 se celebrará el sábado 19 de septiembre y conmemorará su 30.º aniversario.

La historia comenzó en septiembre de 1996, cuando los galeristas Pep Pinya y Xavier Fiol, a través de la Associació Independent de Galeries d’Art de Balears, promovieron la apertura conjunta de galerías al público. Según la historia recogida por Art Palma Contemporani, Palma fue la primera ciudad europea en celebrar una noche del arte con estas características.

Desde entonces, la Nit de l’Art se ha convertido en mucho más que una inauguración colectiva. Es el inicio de la temporada artística de Palma, un encuentro entre creadores y ciudadanía y una invitación a recorrer la ciudad de otra manera. Las galerías, instituciones, museos, patios, calles y espacios culturales forman durante esos días un único mapa emocional.

Para quien visita Mallorca, es además una oportunidad excepcional: descubrir una Palma más local cuando el ritmo de agosto comienza a bajar, las noches son más agradables y la agenda cultural vuelve a ocupar el centro de la vida urbana.

Dónde alojarse para vivir la Nit de l’Art en Palma

Elegir hotel para la Nit de l’Art no consiste únicamente en buscar una cama cerca del centro histórico. Una escapada cultural puede incluir inauguraciones, encuentros, cenas, presentaciones, visitas a estudios y conversaciones que no siempre terminan cuando cierran las galerías.

El Hotel Amic Horizonte ofrece una forma diferente de vivir esos días. Se encuentra en la zona de La Bonanova, sobre el puerto de Palma, cerca de El Terreno, el Paseo Marítimo, Porto Pi, el Castillo de Bellver, Cala Major y la Fundació Miró Mallorca. Su posición elevada aporta una perspectiva singular: después de recorrer la ciudad a pie, el visitante regresa a un hotel desde el que puede volver a contemplar Palma entera.

La página oficial del Hotel Amic Horizonte destaca sus vistas sobre la bahía, su terraza panorámica y su apertura durante todo el año. Esa continuidad es especialmente importante para el mundo cultural. Los proyectos artísticos no nacen únicamente en verano; se preparan, instalan, presentan y desarrollan durante septiembre, otoño e invierno.

Para artistas y equipos creativos, el Horizonte puede funcionar como una verdadera base de operaciones en Palma:

Habitaciones individuales, dobles, superiores, premium y suites.
Capacidad para alojar a artistas y equipos vinculados a una misma exposición, producción o evento.
Espacios comunes para encuentros, reuniones y presentaciones.
Desayuno, restauración y zonas donde continuar una conversación profesional.
Wi-Fi y áreas adecuadas para trabajar durante la estancia.
Cercanía al puerto, al Paseo Marítimo, a El Terreno y al eje cultural de poniente.
Conexión sencilla con el centro histórico, Es Baluard, Casal Solleric, La Llotja y las galerías de Palma.
Una relación directa con un hotel familiar, abierto y acostumbrado a recibir grupos, profesionales y eventos.

Pero hay una ventaja que no aparece en un mapa de distancias: el artista puede alojarse en el mismo lugar en el que su obra encuentra público.

Horizon — The Gallery: una nueva galería pop-up sobre la bahía de Palma

Horizon — The Gallery nace para convertir una parte del Hotel Amic Horizonte en un espacio cultural vivo, cambiante y abierto a nuevas propuestas.

Su espíritu es pop-up: flexible, dinámico y capaz de transformarse con cada proyecto. No pretende imitar una galería convencional ni competir con quienes llevan décadas construyendo el tejido artístico de Mallorca. Quiere sumar una nueva ventana; un espacio en el que artistas emergentes y consolidados, creadores locales y visitantes, fotografía, pintura, escultura, ilustración, diseño o instalaciones puedan encontrar un contexto diferente.

El gran valor de Horizon — The Gallery no es únicamente el espacio físico. Es la combinación entre:

Arte y alojamiento.
Obra y paisaje.
Artista y huésped.
Cultura y hospitalidad.
Palma y su bahía.
Público local y visitante internacional.

En una galería tradicional, el visitante entra expresamente para ver arte. En un hotel, el encuentro también puede ser inesperado. Una persona llega para alojarse, desayunar, acudir a una reunión o contemplar la puesta de sol y descubre una obra que no estaba buscando. Ese cruce amplía el público y crea una relación más espontánea con la creación contemporánea.

Horizon — The Gallery quiere ser también un lugar abierto a Palma. Un punto de encuentro para inauguraciones, conversaciones con artistas, pequeñas presentaciones, encuentros profesionales, fotografía, música, diseño y proyectos capaces de aprovechar la personalidad del hotel y su relación visual con el Mediterráneo.

No queremos que el arte decore el hotel. Queremos que el arte haga que el hotel piense, converse y se abra todavía más a Palma.

Un hotel para artistas en Palma de Mallorca

Cuando un artista viaja para presentar una exposición, su alojamiento forma parte del proyecto aunque pocas veces se hable de ello.

Hay horarios de montaje, equipaje especial, material delicado, reuniones, invitados, cambios de última hora, preparación de textos, necesidad de descansar y momentos en los que el equipo necesita encontrarse fuera de la sala expositiva. No es una estancia turística convencional.

Por eso el Hotel Amic Horizonte quiere reforzar su papel como alojamiento para artistas en Palma de Mallorca y como hotel cercano a galerías, instituciones culturales, productoras, agencias y organizadores de eventos.

La propuesta puede abarcar:

Artistas que presentan obra en Horizon — The Gallery.
Creadores invitados por otras galerías de Palma.
Equipos de montaje, producción y comunicación.
Comisarios, críticos, periodistas culturales y fotógrafos.
Coleccionistas y profesionales que viajan durante la Nit de l’Art.
Participantes en ferias, festivales, congresos creativos y rodajes.
Escuelas de arte, universidades, asociaciones y grupos culturales.
Estancias antes, durante y después de una inauguración.

La hospitalidad cultural no se reduce a ofrecer una habitación. Consiste en comprender el ritmo del artista, facilitar el encuentro y crear las condiciones para que el proyecto pueda suceder.

El Horizonte puede convertirse así en algo muy sencillo y muy poderoso: la casa temporal de quienes vienen a crear, exponer o hablar de arte en Palma.

Palma, una ciudad en la que los hoteles también exponen

La unión entre hoteles y arte no es nueva, pero está creciendo. Cada vez más establecimientos entienden que la cultura no puede quedar reducida a un elemento decorativo ni a una fotografía bonita en recepción. Una colección, una exposición temporal o una galería pop-up pueden abrir el hotel al barrio, dar visibilidad a creadores y generar actividad durante todo el año.

Palma cuenta con referentes que han recorrido parte de este camino desde identidades muy distintas.

El Hotel Artmadams merece un reconocimiento especial como uno de los pioneros más visibles de esta relación en la ciudad. Desde su apertura en el año 2000 ha integrado una colección de arte moderno de artistas mallorquines en sus zonas comunes. Su propia web oficial presenta exposiciones, galerías y obra artística como parte de la personalidad del establecimiento. No es un añadido reciente: el arte forma parte de su nombre y de su relato.

El Hotel Saratoga también ha consolidado una programación de exposiciones en colaboración con Artevisión. El establecimiento explica que cede sus espacios para acercar la obra de distintos artistas tanto a huéspedes como al público general, actuando como plataforma de promoción cultural. Su sección oficial de exposiciones en el Hotel Saratoga confirma una idea esencial: un hotel puede ser un lugar de paso y, al mismo tiempo, un lugar para detenerse ante una obra.

El Terreno Barrio Hotel ha reforzado esta tendencia desde una lectura muy vinculada al barrio. Su Pop-Up Gallery combina exposiciones, intervenciones artísticas y mercados creativos con el propósito de atraer a residentes, apoyar talento local y generar actividad fuera de la temporada alta. Su programación para el segundo semestre de 2026 incluye propuestas relacionadas con la Nit de l’Art y demuestra el potencial de un hotel entendido como espacio social y cultural abierto a su entorno. Economía de Mallorca lo define como una estrategia para conectar el establecimiento con Palma más allá del turismo.

Otros hoteles completan este mapa desde aproximaciones diferentes. Isla Mallorca & Spa, situado junto al Paseo Marítimo y el Castillo de Bellver; Nixe Palace, conectado con Cala Major y el Mediterráneo; o Castillo Hotel Son Vida, con su patrimonio, arquitectura y colección artística, muestran que la experiencia hotelera de Palma puede dialogar con el diseño, el paisaje, la historia y la cultura. No todos adoptan el mismo formato ni mantienen una galería convencional, y precisamente ahí reside la riqueza del ecosistema.

También existen experiencias como las de Nivia Born Boutique Hotel, que durante la Nit de l’Art ha convertido el hotel en galería viva para presentar artistas emergentes, o Can Bordoy Grand House & Garden, que ha integrado exposiciones temporales en colaboración con galerías. Son iniciativas que amplían el recorrido artístico más allá del cubo blanco y permiten que la obra dialogue con jardines, arquitectura histórica, habitaciones, salones y espacios de hospitalidad.

El Hotel Amic Horizonte quiere sumarse desde su propia personalidad. No desde el lujo de un palacio ni desde la posición de un hotel del casco antiguo, sino desde lo que lo hace único:

un pequeño gran hotel, familiar, panorámico, abierto todo el año y suspendido visualmente sobre la bahía de Palma.

De El Terreno a La Bonanova: un nuevo eje cultural en Palma

Durante décadas, El Terreno fue uno de los grandes barrios creativos y nocturnos de Palma. Escritores, músicos, artistas, residentes internacionales y figuras de la cultura encontraron allí un territorio con identidad propia. Hoy, la renovación del Paseo Marítimo, la actividad de los hoteles, la proximidad al Castillo de Bellver y la transformación de diferentes espacios están devolviendo atención a toda esta parte de la ciudad.

El Hotel Amic Horizonte se encuentra en una posición privilegiada para formar parte de ese renacimiento. Desde La Bonanova mira hacia el puerto y se conecta con El Terreno, Porto Pi, Cala Major y el litoral de poniente.

Esa localización permite imaginar una ruta cultural diferente a la habitual:

Empezar la mañana en la Fundació Miró Mallorca, en Cala Major, donde se conservan los talleres y el legado creativo de Joan Miró.
Continuar hacia La Bonanova y visitar una exposición en Horizon — The Gallery.
Descender hacia El Terreno y el Paseo Marítimo para descubrir sus nuevos espacios culturales, gastronómicos y sociales.
Llegar a Es Baluard Museu d’Art Contemporani, La Llotja y el centro histórico.
Recorrer las galerías de Art Palma Contemporani durante la Nit de l’Art.
Regresar al Horizonte y contemplar desde la terraza la misma ciudad que durante el día se ha recorrido a través de sus artistas.

La Fundació Miró Mallorca, situada en la calle Saridakis de Palma, mantiene actividad también en los meses de invierno y constituye uno de los grandes activos culturales del área de poniente. Su información oficial de visita confirma una programación y horarios diferenciados según la temporada. Esta proximidad permite al Horizonte reforzar un posicionamiento muy concreto: hotel para quienes quieren conocer la Palma de Miró, el arte contemporáneo y los barrios que miran al mar.

La Nit de l’Art como inicio de la temporada, no como final del verano

Septiembre suele comunicarse como una prolongación del verano. Para Palma, sin embargo, puede ser algo mucho más interesante: el comienzo de la temporada cultural.

La Nit de l’Art inaugura el calendario expositivo precisamente cuando la presión turística empieza a descender. Es el momento en el que residentes, artistas, profesionales y visitantes pueden recuperar la ciudad a otro ritmo.

La cultura aporta razones para viajar que no dependen de la temperatura del agua. Una exposición, un concierto, una feria, un congreso creativo o una ruta de galerías pueden celebrarse en septiembre, noviembre, febrero o abril. Y un hotel abierto durante todo el año puede alojar a quienes hacen posible esa programación.

La estrategia turística de Baleares está reconociendo ese potencial. El análisis publicado por Hosteltur sobre cultura y desestacionalización señala que Palma se está consolidando como laboratorio de un Mediterráneo cultural activo durante los doce meses. El crecimiento de grandes iniciativas, exposiciones urbanas, museos y ferias internacionales refuerza el posicionamiento de la ciudad más allá del verano.

La cultura no llena solamente galerías. Activa hoteles, restaurantes, taxis, empresas de montaje, imprentas, iluminación, diseño, comunicación, transporte, comercios y espacios de reunión. Atrae a un visitante interesado en comprender el lugar, permanecer más tiempo y conectar con la identidad local.

Por eso Horizon — The Gallery no debe entenderse como una acción aislada. Forma parte de una idea mayor:

Palma no necesita una temporada más larga. Necesita más razones auténticas para ser vivida durante todo el año. El arte es una de ellas.

Una escapada cultural de 48 horas en Palma durante la Nit de l’Art

Día 1: llegada, Horizonte y puesta de sol

Llegada a Palma de Mallorca y alojamiento en el Hotel Amic Horizonte. Después del check-in, la primera experiencia no requiere desplazamiento: contemplar el puerto y la bahía desde la posición elevada del hotel.

La tarde puede comenzar con una visita a Horizon — The Gallery, un encuentro con artistas o una presentación vinculada a la programación cultural. Después, paseo por El Terreno o el nuevo Paseo Marítimo y cena en Palma.

Día 2: Miró, centro histórico y Nit de l’Art

Tras el desayuno, visita a la Fundació Miró Mallorca y a los talleres en los que el artista trabajó durante décadas. Después, recorrido hacia Es Baluard, La Llotja, Passeig del Born y Casal Solleric.

Por la tarde y la noche, la ciudad cambia de ritmo. Es el momento de consultar el programa oficial de Art Palma Contemporani y recorrer las galerías participantes. Conviene elegir una zona inicial y dejar también espacio para la sorpresa: parte de la magia de la Nit de l’Art consiste en entrar donde no se había previsto.

Al terminar, regreso al Hotel Amic Horizonte. La noche cultural concluye mirando Palma desde arriba, con el puerto iluminado y la sensación de que la ciudad continúa siendo parte de la exposición.

Día 3: arte sin prisas

Después del desayuno, el visitante puede regresar a una galería, visitar el Castillo de Bellver, pasear por Santa Catalina o descubrir otros museos y espacios culturales de Palma antes de la salida.

La Nit de l’Art es una gran celebración, pero el verdadero valor de una escapada cultural está en todo lo que queda abierto después.

Reserva directa para una escapada cultural en Palma

Quienes viajen a la Nit de l’Art, participen en una exposición o formen parte de un equipo artístico pueden contactar directamente con el Hotel Amic Horizonte para explicar las necesidades reales de su estancia.

La reserva directa facilita una comunicación más clara con el hotel, especialmente cuando hay varias habitaciones, llegadas diferentes, equipos de producción, necesidades de espacio, estancias ampliables o grupos vinculados a un mismo proyecto.

También permite conocer las categorías de habitación disponibles, solicitar vistas a la bahía cuando sea posible y combinar alojamiento con desayuno, restauración, reuniones o eventos.

Para artistas, galerías, escuelas, asociaciones y organizadores, el contacto directo puede convertirse en el principio de una colaboración, no solamente en una reserva.

Horizon — The Gallery. Art with a view. Artists with a home in Palma.

Porque algunas obras necesitan una pared.

Otras necesitan una ciudad.

Y todas necesitan un horizonte.

YOU MOVED TO MALLORCA. YOUR PARENTS DIDN’T.

2026-09-04T17:42:00.000+02:00

And sooner or later, you get that message:

“We’re coming to visit you.”

Wonderful news.

Until the next question arrives:

“Where are we staying?”

If you are one of the thousands of international residents who have made Mallorca their home, you probably know the situation.

Your parents come from the UK, Germany, Sweden, France, the Netherlands, Switzerland or somewhere else in Europe.

Maybe for four days.

Maybe for a week.

Maybe — as parents sometimes do — for considerably longer than originally announced.

Of course you want them close.

But that doesn't necessarily mean you need them sleeping in your living room.

There is another way.

Make Hotel Amic Horizonte your guest room in Palma.

We are in Palma, above the Port of Palma, next to Portopí and close to El Terreno, the Paseo Marítimo and Bellver, with one of those views that immediately reminds your visitors why you decided to live in Mallorca in the first place.

They have their own room.

Their own bathroom.

Breakfast waiting downstairs.

A swimming pool in season.

Terraces overlooking the Bay of Palma.

Wi-Fi.

Bars and spaces to relax.

And you?

You keep your home.

Your routine.

Your privacy.

And, most importantly, a very good relationship with your parents.

But here's an even better idea.

Don't just book a room for them.

Stay with them.

Turn their visit into a mini-holiday for yourself.

You live in Mallorca, but how often do you actually experience Mallorca as a visitor?

Book another room.

Meet your parents for breakfast.

Spend the afternoon by the pool.

Have a drink overlooking the harbour.

Walk down towards the Paseo Marítimo.

Have dinner together.

Come back to the hotel.

Wake up overlooking the Mediterranean.

No cooking.

No cleaning the guest room.

No driving home after dinner.

No discussion about who gets the bathroom first.

For 24 or 48 hours, stop being the relative who lives in Mallorca and become a visitor again.

Their holiday becomes your staycation.

And we think that's a beautiful way of looking at family visits.

Because when your parents travel hundreds or thousands of kilometres to see you, perhaps the best gift isn't simply giving them somewhere to sleep.

It's giving them your time.

This is where Hotel Amic Horizonte makes particular sense.

We are not trying to be an isolated resort somewhere far from everyday Mallorca.

We are a 3-star hotel in Palma, connected to the city and positioned between the port, Portopí, El Terreno, Bellver and the waterfront.

That makes us practical enough for visiting family.

But different enough to feel like a holiday.

And those two things don't often come together.

Your parents can have their independence.

You can have yours.

You can pick them up for lunch, spend the day together or simply meet them for breakfast.

And when you want to make the visit special, stay here too.

Suddenly you're not hosting.

You're travelling together.

There's another little detail we love.

You probably spend a lot of time telling your family how good life in Mallorca is.

About the weather.

The Mediterranean.

Palma.

The sunsets.

The harbour.

The light.

So when they finally arrive…

show them.

Let them open the curtains in the morning and understand.

Let them sit overlooking the Bay of Palma and say:

“OK. Now we understand why you live here.”

That's the Mallorca welcome we like.

So next time your parents say:

“We're coming to Mallorca!”

Don't panic about the spare room.

Think Horizonte.

And perhaps book yourself in too.

They came to visit you.
You might as well have a holiday together.

Hotel Amic Horizonte
Palma de Mallorca · Mallorca · Balearic Islands

Your family is coming to Mallorca.
We'll take care of the room.
You take care of making memories together.

Your Pool Day in Palma: No Hotel Stay Needed

2026-09-03T08:50:57.691+02:00

You do not need to book a room to enjoy one of the best pool views in Palma.

At Hotel Amic Horizonte, our Day Pass is open to people who simply want to spend a few good hours by the pool, eat, have a cocktail and look out over the Bay of Palma and the Port of Palma.

And September and October may be the best months to do it.

The city is still warm.

The sun is still very much here.

The biggest summer crowds begin to disappear.

And Palma starts feeling like Palma again.

For us, this is Cocktail Season at the Horizonte.

Live in Palma? Come up for the day.

Sometimes we travel thousands of kilometres looking for something we already have ten minutes from home.

A swimming pool.

A sunbed.

Lunch outside.

A cold drink.

The sea in front of us.

If you live in Palma, Genova, Bonanova, Porto Pi, Cala Major or anywhere nearby, the Horizonte can become your local escape.

No suitcase.

No airport.

No hotel room.

Just a day off.

Staying in an Airbnb or holiday apartment in Palma?

Palma is full of fantastic apartments.

But many of them have one thing missing.

A swimming pool.

That does not mean you have to spend your Mallorca holiday without one.

Spend the morning exploring Palma, then come up to the Hotel Amic Horizonte for an afternoon by the pool.

Swim.

Relax.

Have lunch.

Order a cocktail.

And watch the ships moving through Palma Bay.

Your apartment can wait.

Arriving in Palma on a cruise?

You have seen Palma from the ship.

Now see your ship from Palma.

The Hotel Amic Horizonte sits above the Port of Palma, with panoramic views across the harbour and the Mediterranean.

That makes our Day Pass an easy option for cruise passengers who want something different from another few hours walking around the city.

Leave the ship.

Come up to the Horizonte.

Take a swim.

Have something to eat.

Enjoy a cocktail overlooking the port.

And watch Palma from a completely different angle before heading back to your cruise.

Sometimes the best souvenir is simply a very good afternoon.

And if you are one of our neighbours…

You already know where we are.

Perhaps you have driven past us hundreds of times.

Perhaps you see the Horizonte every day.

So here is your excuse to finally come inside.

Our pool is not only for tourists staying at the hotel.

It can be part of your Palma too.

Bring your partner.

Meet some friends.

Celebrate something.

Or celebrate absolutely nothing.

September and October are particularly good for that.

How does the Hotel Amic Horizonte Day Pass work?

The Day Pass costs €50 per person.

And the best part is simple:

your €50 can be used entirely on food and drinks at the hotel.

Lunch.

Cocktails.

Drinks by the pool.

Something to share.

You decide.

Meanwhile, you enjoy the pool, solarium and those unmistakable views over Palma Bay.

September + October = Cocktail Season

We like summer.

But we really like what comes just after it.

September and October have a different rhythm in Mallorca.

Long lunches become easier.

The sun feels better.

You stay at the table longer.

And a cocktail overlooking the Mediterranean somehow tastes even better.

So whether you are a Palma resident, a neighbour, a cruise passenger or staying in an Airbnb or holiday apartment, there is one very simple plan waiting for you.

Come up to the Horizonte.

Find a sunbed.

Order something cold.

And spend a few hours looking down at Palma instead of rushing through it.

Hotel Amic Horizonte Day Pass · Palma de Mallorca

Pool.
Solarium.
Food.
Cocktails.
Panoramic views over Palma Bay.

€50 per person.
€50 to enjoy in food and drinks.

Palma is down there.

Your pool day is up here.

Hotel para equipos deportivos en Palma de Mallorca: en Amic Horizonte jugáis en casa

2026-09-01T12:15:00.000+02:00

Un viaje de competición empieza mucho antes del primer saque o del pitido inicial. Hay que cuadrar vuelos, habitaciones, desayunos, desplazamientos, comidas y horarios de partido. Y, después, encontrar un lugar donde el equipo pueda descansar.

Si buscáis un hotel para equipos deportivos en Palma de Mallorca, en Hotel Amic Horizonte queremos ponéroslo fácil. Estamos en Carrer de Vista Alegre, 1, en la zona de Porto Pi, con vistas a la bahía de Palma. Acogemos a clubes de baloncesto, balonmano, voleibol, fútbol, fútbol sala, hockey, pádel y golf con una propuesta de alojamiento adaptada a la agenda de cada grupo. Conoce el hotel y su ubicación.

Una base para competir, descansar y estar juntos

Cada expedición tiene su propio ritmo. Un equipo puede necesitar desayuno antes de salir hacia el pabellón; otro, un picnic entre dos partidos; y el cuerpo técnico, unos minutos de reunión antes de la cena.

Por eso, al preparar vuestra estancia, podemos organizar con antelación:

Habitaciones dobles y opciones individuales para jugadores, entrenadores y personal técnico, según disponibilidad.
Alojamiento y desayuno, media pensión o pensión completa, de acuerdo con el calendario del grupo.
Desayuno buffet y turnos coordinados con recepción. El horario habitual es de 7:00 a 10:00.
Picnics para llevar, con una o dos opciones de bocadillo, bebida y fruta.
Menús deportivos acordados previamente, con propuestas como pasta, ensalada, pollo o carne a la plancha, fruta y yogur. Las necesidades alimentarias se revisan al preparar el presupuesto.
Sala para reuniones técnicas, con pantalla para repasar el partido. Para grupos con reserva directa, puede solicitarse también una camilla de masajes para el profesional del equipo, con confirmación previa y según disponibilidad.

El hotel cuenta además con recepción 24 horas, restaurante, consigna, terrazas panorámicas y piscina exterior. El servicio de masajes del hotel se concierta por separado y con cita previa. Consulta los servicios y los espacios de reunión.

De Porto Pi a la competición: distancias a instalaciones deportivas

Saber dónde se juega exactamente cambia toda la planificación. El Palau Municipal de Son Moix y el Estadi Mallorca Son Moix, por ejemplo, son recintos distintos y tienen accesos diferentes.

Estas son referencias útiles desde Hotel Amic Horizonte para preparar un desplazamiento deportivo en Palma:

Deporte	Instalación y referencia local	Distancia aproximada por carretera	Tiempo orientativo en coche
Baloncesto y fútbol sala	Palau Municipal de Son Moix, sede de Palmer Basket y Palma Futsal	6,7 km	10–15 min
Fútbol	Estadi Mallorca Son Moix, estadio del RCD Mallorca	7,4 km	10–15 min
Voleibol y baloncesto de base	Poliesportiu Germans Escalas, una de las pistas utilizadas por el Club Deportivo Sant Josep Obrer	12,9 km	15–20 min
Fútbol	Estadio Balear, del Atlético Baleares	13,1 km	15–20 min
Balonmano	Polideportivo La Salle de es Pont d’Inca, instalación vinculada a Handbol Mallorca	15,2 km	20–25 min
Hockey en línea	Poliesportiu Joan Seguí, en Son Rapinya; recinto de competiciones de Espanya HC	6,8 km	10–15 min
Pádel	Palma Pádel, en Son Rapinya	6,4 km	10–15 min
Golf	Golf Son Muntaner, en el entorno de Son Vida	8–9 km, según acceso	15–20 min

Distancias y tiempos de conducción orientativos, revisados en septiembre de 2026. El tráfico, el tamaño del vehículo y los accesos en día de partido pueden modificar el trayecto. Confirmad siempre la sede indicada en vuestra convocatoria: las categorías de base y los torneos pueden jugar en otras instalaciones.

¿Venís a disputar hockey hierba? El Mallorca Hockey Club publica su contacto en Verge de Lluc, pero conviene confirmar con la organización el campo asignado antes de planificar el traslado. Para jornadas en Son Vida o Son Quint, además de Son Muntaner, prepararemos el itinerario según el campo y la hora de salida.

Baloncesto, voleibol y fútbol sala: cuando el horario del pabellón manda

Un partido en Son Moix puede implicar entrenamiento previo, charla técnica y regreso al hotel varias horas después. Si nos comunicáis el horario de pista, podemos preparar la estancia alrededor de esos momentos: turno de desayuno, comida, picnic y espacio para revisar vídeo.

Esto resulta especialmente útil cuando un torneo reúne varios encuentros en un mismo día. El equipo sabe dónde comer, el entrenador sabe cuándo reunir a los jugadores y quien coordina el viaje tiene un plan claro desde la llegada.

Fútbol, balonmano y hockey: una expedición necesita coordinación

En fútbol, la lista de viajeros puede incluir jugadores, entrenadores, delegados y personal de apoyo. En balonmano y hockey, además, el material y las horas de acceso a la instalación influyen en la salida. Al solicitar presupuesto, decidnos el nombre del campo o pabellón y la hora de convocatoria, no solo la del partido.

Podemos ayudaros a planificar y presupuestar los traslados entre el aeropuerto, el hotel y la instalación deportiva. El transporte se confirma y se cotiza según el recorrido, las plazas y el equipaje del grupo. Si vais a jugar fuera de Palma —por ejemplo, en Marratxí, Calvià, Inca o Manacor—, calcularemos la salida para vuestra sede concreta.

Pádel y golf: desayunar a tiempo también forma parte del torneo

Una primera ronda temprana, varios partidos de pádel o una salida de golf requieren un horario distinto al de una jornada de liga por la tarde. Podemos coordinar el desayuno y estudiar opciones de picnic para que cada participante salga con su plan resuelto.

La ubicación del hotel permite organizar estancias con actividad deportiva en Son Rapinya y el entorno de Son Vida, manteniendo Palma como punto de encuentro del grupo. Entre jornadas, las terrazas y las vistas a la bahía ofrecen un buen lugar para bajar el ritmo.

La cena de equipo, la charla y el descanso

Después de competir, llega una parte igual de importante del viaje: comer, comentar lo ocurrido y descansar. En Amic Horizonte podemos estudiar una propuesta de buffet o menú para el grupo, con las necesidades alimentarias comunicadas previamente.

Para entrenadores y delegados, disponer de una sala donde revisar imágenes, reunir al equipo o preparar la siguiente jornada evita improvisaciones. Y cuando termina la reunión, el hotel ofrece un ambiente tranquilo para descansar antes del siguiente compromiso.

Si el último partido se juega en domingo, podéis consultar la posibilidad de late check-out hasta las 17:00, sujeto a disponibilidad y suplemento.

Preguntas frecuentes sobre alojar un equipo deportivo en Palma

¿A qué distancia está Hotel Amic Horizonte de Son Moix?

El Palau Municipal de Son Moix está a unos 6,7 km por carretera del hotel; el Estadi Mallorca Son Moix, a unos 7,4 km. Son instalaciones distintas. Confirmad cuál figura en la convocatoria y dejad margen adicional si viajáis en autocar.

¿Se puede reservar con desayuno, media pensión o pensión completa?

Sí. Preparamos el presupuesto de grupo según las fechas, el número de personas y el régimen de comidas que necesitéis. También podéis solicitar picnics con bebida y fruta para jornadas de competición.

¿Hay sala para una charla técnica y camilla de masajes?

Podéis solicitar una sala con pantalla para reuniones del equipo y una camilla para vuestro profesional. En reservas directas de grupo, su disponibilidad y condiciones se confirman antes de la llegada. El servicio de masajes del hotel requiere cita previa y se consulta por separado.

¿Podéis ayudar con el traslado del equipo?

Sí. Indicadnos aeropuerto o puerto de llegada, número de viajeros, equipaje deportivo y sedes de competición. Os ayudaremos a estudiar y presupuestar los traslados necesarios.

¿Cuánto cuesta alojar un equipo en la temporada 2026/27?

La tarifa depende de las fechas, las habitaciones disponibles, el tamaño del grupo y las comidas elegidas. Así podemos enviaros una propuesta ajustada al calendario real de vuestro club.

Vuestro próximo partido en Mallorca empieza aquí

Contadnos qué equipo sois, cuándo viajáis, cuántas personas venís y dónde competís. Si ya conocéis los horarios, añadidlos; si aún no están confirmados, podemos empezar a preparar la estancia y ajustar después los detalles.

Escribid a grupos@amic-hotels.com con el asunto «Equipo deportivo – nombre del club – fechas».

En Palma, vuestro equipo tiene una casa desde la que salir a competir: Hotel Amic Horizonte.

Eclipse solar 2028 en Palma: 316 segundos de luz sobre el Horizonte

2026-08-25T14:07:18.115+02:00

Miércoles 26 de enero de 2028: el “anillo de fuego” que despedirá el día sobre Mallorca

Última actualización: 25 de agosto de 2026

No reserves una terraza para ver un eclipse.

Reserva un lugar desde el que recordar, durante toda la vida, lo que sentiste cuando levantaste la vista.

El miércoles 26 de enero de 2028, la Luna se colocará delante del Sol y Palma de Mallorca vivirá un eclipse solar anular al atardecer. No será un eclipse total. No llegará la noche a mediodía. Será algo acaso más delicado y cinematográfico: el Sol se irá convirtiendo lentamente en un arco y, durante unos instantes, en un anillo de luz suspendido casi a ras del horizonte.

En Palma, la fase anular prevista durará 316 segundos.

Cinco minutos y dieciséis segundos que no se repetirán.

En el Hotel Amic Horizonte, abierto todo el año y elevado sobre el puerto y la bahía de Palma, queremos convertir ese instante en mucho más que una fecha astronómica. Queremos que enero de 2028 sea el mes en que viajeros, residentes, astrónomos, creadores, medios de comunicación, agencias y nómadas digitales se encuentren en Mallorca bajo un mismo cielo.

LEVANTA LA VISTA 2028 · LOOK UP TO THE SKY

Las prerreservas prioritarias de alojamiento y las solicitudes de plaza para las terrazas ya están abiertas.

La información esencial del eclipse solar de 2028 en Palma

Según la tabla municipal publicada actualmente por el Instituto Geográfico Nacional, estas son las circunstancias calculadas para Palma. Todas las horas corresponden a la hora oficial local de Mallorca:

Momento	Hora prevista en Palma
Inicio del eclipse parcial	16:41:12
Inicio de la fase anular	17:54:46
Máximo del eclipse	17:57:24
Fin de la fase anular	18:00:02
Puesta de Sol calculada	18:01:35
Duración calculada de la anularidad	5 min 16 s · 316 segundos
Magnitud del eclipse en Palma	0,91
Altura del Sol en el máximo	aprox. 0°
Azimut del Sol	246° · oeste-suroeste

La magnitud 0,91 expresa una relación astronómica entre los diámetros aparentes y no debe interpretarse directamente como “un 91 % de oscuridad”.

Hay otro dato todavía más importante: en el momento máximo, el Sol estará prácticamente sobre el horizonte. La altura, la orientación y la ausencia de edificios, montañas o nubes bajas en dirección oeste-suroeste serán decisivas.

Una precisión importante y honesta

La tabla municipal actual del IGN sitúa el final de la fase anular apenas un minuto y treinta y tres segundos antes de la puesta de Sol. Sin embargo, la explicación general del propio IGN advierte de que, desde Palma, la puesta de Sol podría interrumpir la parte final de la anularidad.

Cuando el Sol está a una altura cercana a 0°, la ubicación exacta, el relieve, la refracción atmosférica y el horizonte real pueden cambiar lo que finalmente se observa.

Por eso, el Hotel Amic Horizonte realizará una validación técnica de las líneas de visión a 246° desde sus diferentes terrazas y plantas antes de asignar cualquier espacio como “Eclipse View”. No venderemos como garantizada una vista que no haya sido comprobada. Publicaremos el mapa de sectores y los tiempos actualizados a medida que se acerque la fecha.

La meteorología tampoco se puede reservar. Lo que sí podemos preparar es el lugar, la seguridad, el conocimiento y la experiencia compartida.

¿Qué es un eclipse anular y por qué se verá un anillo de luz?

Un eclipse solar se produce cuando la Luna pasa entre la Tierra y el Sol.

En un eclipse total, el disco lunar parece lo bastante grande para cubrir completamente el Sol. En un eclipse anular, la Luna se encuentra más lejos de la Tierra y su tamaño aparente es ligeramente menor. Aunque la alineación sea casi perfecta, queda visible un borde luminoso alrededor de la Luna.

Ese borde es el llamado “anillo de fuego”.

Es una expresión visual, no una fase segura para mirar sin protección. Durante un eclipse anular siempre queda una parte de la superficie solar visible.

El Instituto Geográfico Nacional explica que la franja de anularidad del 26 de enero de 2028 atravesará Sudamérica, el Atlántico, Portugal y España.

El recorrido comenzará en el Pacífico, cruzará Ecuador, Perú, el extremo sur de Colombia, Brasil, Surinam y la Guayana Francesa; después llegará a las Azores, Portugal continental y España. La Agencia Espacial Europea ha publicado también un mapa global del recorrido.

El fenómeno comenzará a las 13:06, hora peninsular española, y terminará a las 19:08. Su máximo mundial se alcanzará en Brasil a las 16:07, donde la anularidad llegará a los 10 minutos y 27 segundos, una duración que sitúa este eclipse entre los anulares más largos del siglo.

Los cálculos de NASA para 2028 lo identifican como un eclipse anular perteneciente a la serie Saros 141.

En España será el cierre de la extraordinaria tríada ibérica de eclipses de 2026, 2027 y 2028. Después habrá que esperar hasta 2053 para que otro eclipse total sea visible desde algún punto del país.

Palma no tendrá un eclipse a mediodía: tendrá un eclipse dentro del atardecer

Esta es la imagen que debe quedar grabada.

El miércoles 26 de enero, la Luna empezará a “morder” el Sol a las 16:41. Durante más de una hora, la luz de la tarde irá cambiando. A las 17:54 comenzará la fase anular. A las 17:57, con el Sol prácticamente rozando el horizonte oeste-suroeste, llegará el máximo.

No aparecerá la oscuridad completa de un eclipse total. El anillo seguirá emitiendo una luz intensa. Pero el paisaje perderá luminosidad, las sombras y los colores cambiarán y el atardecer se mezclará con la geometría perfecta de tres cuerpos celestes.

El valor de Palma está en vivir uno de los finales más frágiles y visuales de todo el recorrido: un anillo de luz descendiendo hasta confundirse con el horizonte mediterráneo.

En este eclipse, el horizonte no será el fondo de la fotografía. Será el protagonista.

¿Por qué vivir el eclipse desde el Hotel Amic Horizonte?

El Hotel Amic Horizonte se encuentra en la zona de La Bonanova–Porto Pi, sobre el Puerto de Palma y a unos dos kilómetros del centro de la ciudad.

Sus terrazas panorámicas, su posición elevada y sus vistas al puerto, la bahía, la Catedral y el Castillo de Bellver lo convierten en una base urbana singular para estudiar y vivir un fenómeno que exige altura y un horizonte abierto.

El hotel cuenta con 199 habitaciones, espacios panorámicos y alojamientos situados en plantas altas. Entre sus habitaciones más especiales están:

La suite Looking at the Horizon, de 50 m² y situada en las plantas 7 y 8.
La suite Dancing on the Roof, en la planta 9, con terraza, jacuzzi exterior y visión panorámica de 360°.
La suite Love Around the Bay.
Habitaciones superiores en altura.
Habitaciones con terraza y cama balinesa.
Habitaciones Premium XL.

Puedes conocer sus características en la página oficial de habitaciones del Hotel Amic Horizonte.

Conviene decirlo con claridad: tener vistas al mar no garantiza automáticamente ver el eclipse desde una habitación.

El Sol estará hacia el oeste-suroeste y casi a 0°. Solo las habitaciones y terrazas cuya línea visual haya sido comprobada se comercializarán o asignarán como espacios de observación. Los demás huéspedes con un paquete que incluya el evento accederán al sector común indicado expresamente en su confirmación.

Esa honestidad forma parte de nuestra manera de entender la hospitalidad.

Comodidad de invierno, antes y después del cielo

Enero pide otra clase de Mallorca: menos prisa, más ciudad y más tiempo para uno mismo.

El Hotel Amic Horizonte dispone de calefacción, Wi-Fi, escritorios en numerosas habitaciones, centro de negocios, lavandería autoservicio, gimnasio, masajes con reserva previa, desayuno buffet con vistas, PanorAmic Bar y salas interiores en las que continuar el programa si el viento o el frío lo aconsejan.

Los servicios oficiales del hotel están pensados tanto para vacaciones como para estancias de trabajo y bleisure.

Aquí el eclipse no tiene por qué ser una excursión de unas horas. Puede ser la culminación de una estancia de tres noches, una semana de invierno en Palma o un mes entero viviendo y trabajando frente a la bahía.

LEVANTA LA VISTA 2028: convertir un dato astronómico en un acontecimiento

El eclipse sucederá con o sin nosotros. El evento se construye alrededor de todo lo que podemos hacer para comprenderlo, compartirlo y recordarlo.

El programa provisional LEVANTA LA VISTA 2028 · 316 SEGUNDOS incluirá, sujeto a confirmación técnica y de aforo:

Recepción escalonada y asignación previa de sectores de observación.
Introducción divulgativa a cargo de astrónomos o comunicadores científicos invitados.
Explicación obligatoria de seguridad ocular antes del primer contacto.
Gafas de observación solar homologadas incluidas en los paquetes del evento.
Observación por proyección y señal ampliada en pantallas, con equipos y filtros profesionales.
Seguimiento de las fases desde las 16:41.
Cuenta atrás y 316 segundos de silencio, música mínima o relato sonoro durante la fase anular.
Posiciones técnicas limitadas para fotografía, vídeo y retransmisión.
Espacio interior de seguimiento y una señal alternativa en directo si las nubes impiden la observación local.
Brindis al anochecer y propuesta gastronómica mallorquina de invierno.
Conversación posterior sobre lo que habremos visto, fotografiado y sentido.

No queremos llenar una terraza de teléfonos levantados y ruido. Queremos diseñar un momento en el que haya tiempo para fotografiar, pero también para mirar y sentir.

La pregunta que guiará toda la campaña será muy sencilla:

¿Con quién compartirías 316 segundos que no volverán?

#316Segundos · #LevantaLaVista2028 · #EclipsePalma2028 · #LookUpPalma

El Sol no se vende. La Luna tampoco.

Durante los grandes eclipses, los precios de algunos alojamientos y transportes pueden dispararse. Nosotros queremos defender otro principio:

No hacemos negocio con el Sol ni con la Luna en el Horizonte.

El cielo pertenece a todos.

El hotel cobra por la habitación, el desayuno, el equipo, el personal, la seguridad, el aforo, la atención y los servicios que hacen posible la experiencia. No por un fenómeno natural que nadie puede garantizar ni poseer.

Por eso, las primeras solicitudes recibirán acceso prioritario a una Tarifa Amic Eclipse 2028, basada en precios honestos de invierno y comunicada siempre por escrito. No aplicaremos un “multiplicador astronómico” oculto a quienes se incorporen a la lista inicial.

Habrá pocas plazas en las terrazas porque el aforo deberá ser seguro, no porque queramos crear una escasez artificial.

La Lista 316 ya está abierta

Puedes solicitar ahora, sin pago inicial y sin compromiso hasta recibir y aceptar las condiciones definitivas, una de estas modalidades:

AMIC January 2028: un carnet para vivir y trabajar todo el mes en Palma

¿Y si el eclipse no fuera la única razón para venir?

Enero de 2028 reunirá en Mallorca una secuencia difícil de repetir: la llegada de los Reyes Magos, las fiestas de Sant Antoni, las fiestas patronales de Sant Sebastià en Palma y, como final del mes, el eclipse anular del día 26.

Las celebraciones de Sant Antoni tienen lugar tradicionalmente los días 16 y 17 de enero en municipios como Sa Pobla, Manacor, Artà, Pollença, Muro y Palma, entre dimonis, foguerons, ximbombes, gloses, torrades y beneïdes.

La información turística oficial de las Illes Balears ofrece una introducción a esta tradición mallorquina de invierno.

En Palma, la Revetla de Sant Sebastià se celebra alrededor del 19 y 20 de enero, aunque el programa concreto de 2028 se publicará más adelante.

El calendario puede convertirse en el relato de todo el mes:

5–6 de enero: Reyes en Palma.
16–17 de enero: Sant Antoni y la Mallorca del fuego.
19–20 de enero: Sant Sebastià, Palma en la calle.
26 de enero: 316 segundos de anillo solar sobre el horizonte.

Entre una fecha y otra quedan días para trabajar con calma, caminar por el casco histórico, descubrir los museos de Palma, recorrer el Paseo Marítimo, visitar la Fundació Miró Mallorca, entrenar, pedalear, escribir, crear o simplemente mirar la bahía desde otra estación.

Para ese viajero nace AMIC JANUARY 2028 · 31 días bajo el mismo cielo, un carnet de larga estancia pensado para nómadas digitales, profesionales desplazados, escritores, investigadores, fotógrafos y personas que puedan trabajar desde cualquier lugar.

La propuesta mensual se configurará con opciones de alojamiento, zona de trabajo, Wi-Fi, limpieza, lavandería, desayuno, bienestar, actividades de comunidad y acceso al evento del eclipse.

Quienes se inscriban ahora recibirán primero las condiciones de fundador y podrán explicar qué servicios necesitan para que el carnet se diseñe sobre usos reales.

Según las normales climáticas 1981–2010 de AEMET para Palma de Mallorca–Aeropuerto, enero registra una media de 163 horas de sol, una media de las máximas diarias de 15,2 °C, unos 37 mm de precipitación y 5,7 días al mes con lluvia igual o superior a un milímetro.

Son promedios históricos, no un pronóstico para el 26 de enero de 2028. En una terraza elevada junto al mar, el viento y la sensación térmica también cuentan: hará falta ropa de abrigo aunque el día sea luminoso.

Convocatoria abierta: astrónomos, medios, agencias y creadores

Queremos que el Hotel Amic Horizonte sea un punto de encuentro, no solo un punto de venta.

Astrónomos y divulgadores

Buscamos especialistas que quieran participar en la validación del lugar, el diseño de una observación segura, las charlas previas, la instrumentación y la interpretación del fenómeno.

Si perteneces a una agrupación astronómica, universidad u observatorio, escribe a grupos@amic-hotels.com con el asunto “CIENCIA · ECLIPSE 2028”.

Medios de comunicación

Televisiones, radios, prensa, agencias fotográficas, productoras, pódcasts y medios internacionales podrán solicitar posiciones de emisión y acreditaciones.

Necesitamos conocer con antelación los requisitos de conectividad, energía, espacio, sonido y línea de cámara.

Escribe con el asunto “PRENSA · ECLIPSE 2028”.

Agencias de viajes y turoperadores

Palma puede convertirse en un city break de invierno alrededor de un fenómeno global.

Prepararemos propuestas de 3, 7 y 31 noches, paquetes para grupos de interés especial y colaboración B2B para mercados internacionales.

Escribe con el asunto “AGENCIA · ECLIPSE 2028”.

Fotógrafos, filmmakers, influencers y creadores

No buscamos únicamente una fotografía delante del Sol. Buscamos ideas que cuenten la espera, el invierno, la ciencia, Palma y la emoción de esos 316 segundos.

Envíanos una propuesta breve, los canales donde se publicaría, la audiencia real y los derechos de uso que planteas.

Escribe con el asunto “CREADOR · 316 SEGUNDOS”.

No elegiremos solo por el número de seguidores. Elegiremos por la historia que alguien sea capaz de imaginar antes de que suceda.

Cómo observar el eclipse de 2028 con seguridad

En un eclipse anular no existe ningún momento seguro para mirar directamente al Sol sin protección. El anillo brillante sigue siendo superficie solar visible.

Las recomendaciones del Instituto Geográfico Nacional para la observación solar segura son claras:

No mires nunca al Sol directamente ni con gafas de sol convencionales.
Utiliza únicamente gafas de eclipse homologadas, en perfecto estado y siguiendo sus instrucciones.
No combines las gafas de eclipse con prismáticos, telescopios o cámaras.
Cualquier instrumento óptico debe tener un filtro solar profesional colocado delante del objetivo.
No utilices radiografías, cristales ahumados, filtros caseros ni reflejos en el agua.
La observación por proyección es una alternativa segura cuando está correctamente preparada.
Los menores deben permanecer supervisados en todo momento.

El protocolo definitivo del Hotel Amic Horizonte se elaborará con asesoramiento especializado. El cumplimiento de las normas de seguridad será condición de acceso a las zonas de observación.

¿Y si hay nubes?

Nadie puede garantizar el cielo de una fecha situada a más de un año de distancia. Tampoco un hotel, una agencia ni un astrónomo.

La baja altura del Sol hará que una banda de nubes sobre el oeste pueda ser determinante.

Por eso, el proyecto prevé una experiencia que siga teniendo sentido aunque la meteorología impida ver el anillo desde Palma: seguimiento en pantallas de señales profesionales, explicación científica, contenidos audiovisuales, espacios interiores, encuentro con los invitados y programa posterior.

Las condiciones de alojamiento y las del evento se explicarán por separado antes de confirmar cualquier reserva.

Un fenómeno natural no puede prometerse como si fuera un servicio prestado por el hotel. Sí podemos comprometernos a explicar el riesgo y a preparar el mejor plan posible.

Preguntas frecuentes sobre el eclipse solar de 2028 en Palma

¿Cuándo será el eclipse solar de 2028 en Palma de Mallorca?

El miércoles 26 de enero de 2028. En Palma comenzará como eclipse parcial a las 16:41:12 y alcanzará su máximo a las 17:57:24, según los cálculos actuales del IGN.

¿Será total en Mallorca?

No. Será un eclipse anular: la Luna no cubrirá por completo el disco solar y dejará visible un anillo de luz.

¿Se verá el anillo de fuego desde Palma?

Palma está dentro de la zona de anularidad según la tabla actual del IGN. La fase anular municipal está calculada entre las 17:54:46 y las 18:00:02.

Sin embargo, el Sol estará prácticamente a 0° y muy próximo a ponerse. La visión real dependerá de la ubicación exacta, el relieve, el horizonte y la meteorología.

¿Cuánto durará la fase anular en Palma?

El cálculo municipal actual es de 5 minutos y 16 segundos, es decir, 316 segundos.

¿Hacia dónde habrá que mirar?

Hacia el oeste-suroeste, alrededor de un azimut de 246°, siempre con protección solar homologada.

¿Se puede mirar el anillo sin gafas?

No. Durante un eclipse anular siempre queda luz solar directa. Las gafas homologadas o un sistema seguro de proyección son obligatorios durante todas las fases.

¿Puedo verlo desde mi habitación?

Solo determinadas habitaciones podrían disponer de la orientación y línea visual necesarias.

No se confirmará ninguna habitación como “Eclipse View” hasta que se haya comprobado técnicamente. Los paquetes con acceso al evento especificarán por escrito el sector asignado.

¿Cómo será el tiempo?

No existe todavía un pronóstico para enero de 2028.

Palma disfruta de bastantes horas de sol incluso en invierno, pero puede haber nubes, lluvia, viento o bancos nubosos en el horizonte. La visibilidad nunca está garantizada.

¿Cómo puedo prerreservar alojamiento o una plaza de terraza?

Escribe a grupos@amic-hotels.com con el asunto “316 · ECLIPSE 2028”, indicando el número de personas, la modalidad y las fechas aproximadas.

La solicitud concede prioridad, pero no constituye una reserva confirmada hasta recibir por escrito el precio, las condiciones, el aforo y el sector asignado.

El miércoles 26 de enero de 2028, a las 17:57:24, Palma levantará la vista

Antes habrán pasado los Reyes. Habrán bailado los dimonis. Se habrán encendido los foguerons de Sant Antoni y Palma habrá celebrado Sant Sebastià.

Después llegará un miércoles aparentemente normal.

La gente saldrá del trabajo. Los barcos estarán en el puerto. Las luces de la ciudad empezarán a encenderse.

Y entonces, casi sobre el horizonte, el Sol se convertirá en un anillo.

No será nuestro. No será de nadie.

Pero el recuerdo sí será tuyo.

Vol direct Lyon–Palma en hiver 2026-2027

2026-08-24T17:55:28.454+02:00

Nouveau vol direct Lyon–Palma en hiver : une escapade méditerranéenne à seulement 1 h 30

Série Palma en direct | Les nouvelles liaisons pour découvrir Majorque toute l’année

Cet hiver, Lyon et Palma seront plus proches que jamais.

Pour la première fois, Transavia France maintiendra sa liaison directe entre Lyon-Saint-Exupéry et Palma de Majorque pendant toute la saison hivernale.

Les vols seront opérés les mercredis et samedis, de fin octobre 2026 à fin mars 2027, avec près de 17 000 sièges disponibles.

Cette nouvelle programmation ne représente pas seulement une liaison aérienne supplémentaire. Elle ouvre de nouvelles possibilités aux agences de voyages, associations, entreprises, clubs sportifs et organisateurs de groupes souhaitant proposer une escapade à Majorque en dehors de la saison estivale.

Car Palma en hiver n’est pas une version plus calme de l’été.

C’est une autre manière de découvrir Majorque.

Un calendrier idéal pour un city break à Palma

Les deux rotations hebdomadaires permettent de créer plusieurs formats de séjour particulièrement faciles à commercialiser :

Du mercredi au samedi : 3 nuits à Palma.
Du samedi au mercredi : 4 nuits à Majorque.
Du samedi au samedi ou du mercredi au mercredi : un séjour complet de 7 nuits.

Ces formats conviennent parfaitement aux courts séjours urbains, voyages culturels, séminaires d’entreprise, séjours sportifs, programmes bien-être et voyages organisés pour petits groupes.

Le vol direct entre Lyon et Palma dure environ une heure et trente minutes. Majorque devient ainsi l’une des destinations méditerranéennes les plus accessibles depuis Lyon et toute la région Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.

Lors de l’annonce de la programmation, Transavia proposait des billets à partir de 24 euros par trajet, selon les dates et les disponibilités.

Pourquoi partir à Palma depuis Lyon en hiver ?

Majorque est encore souvent associée aux plages, au soleil et aux vacances d’été. Pourtant, entre novembre et mars, Palma révèle probablement son visage le plus authentique.

L’hiver permet de parcourir le centre historique sans la foule estivale, de visiter la cathédrale de Palma, de découvrir les patios majorquins, les galeries, les musées et les marchés traditionnels ou de réserver une table dans les meilleurs restaurants de la ville.

C’est également le moment idéal pour marcher le long du nouveau Paseo Marítimo, découvrir le port de Palma et le Club de Mar, faire du shopping à Porto Pi ou simplement s’installer face à la baie pour profiter de la lumière méditerranéenne.

Et à quelques kilomètres de la capitale se trouvent la Serra de Tramuntana, Valldemossa, Deià, Sóller et certains des plus beaux paysages de Majorque.

Palma, bien plus qu’une destination balnéaire

Un city break hivernal à Palma peut réunir, au cours d’un même voyage :

Patrimoine, architecture et culture.
Gastronomie majorquine et marchés locaux.
Shopping et loisirs urbains.
Cyclisme, randonnée, running et golf.
Yoga, massages et expériences bien-être.
Réunions, séminaires et incentives.
Excursions dans la Serra de Tramuntana.
Visites de domaines viticoles.
Promenades au bord de la Méditerranée.
Concerts, expositions et événements culturels.

En hiver, Majorque retrouve un rythme plus local. Le voyageur peut prendre le temps de découvrir l’île, de rencontrer ses habitants et de vivre des expériences parfois cachées par l’intensité de la haute saison.

Une opportunité pour les agences de voyages et les groupes lyonnais

Le maintien du vol Lyon–Palma pendant l’hiver crée un nouveau produit particulièrement intéressant pour les agences françaises, les autocaristes, les associations et les organisateurs de voyages de la région lyonnaise.

La combinaison des vols du mercredi et du samedi permet de construire des programmes simples et attractifs.

Escapade culturelle de trois nuits

Arrivée le mercredi, deux journées complètes pour découvrir Palma et retour le samedi.

Ce format est idéal pour les associations culturelles, les groupes d’amis, les comités d’entreprise et les voyageurs intéressés par le patrimoine, la gastronomie et l’art de vivre méditerranéen.

Majorque active en quatre nuits

Arrivée le samedi et retour le mercredi.

Un programme adapté aux clubs cyclistes, randonneurs, golfeurs, runners ou groupes souhaitant associer sport, bien-être et découverte de l’île.

Séminaire ou incentive face à la Méditerranée

Palma permet de réunir réunions de travail, restauration, activités de groupe et expériences en plein air, sans multiplier les déplacements.

La courte durée du vol permet d’organiser un séminaire compact, dépaysant et accessible depuis Lyon.

Une semaine pour découvrir la véritable Majorque

Un séjour de sept nuits permet de combiner Palma avec Valldemossa, Sóller, Deià, la Serra de Tramuntana, les marchés traditionnels, les domaines viticoles, les itinéraires cyclistes et les expériences gastronomiques.

Hôtel Amic Horizonte : une fenêtre ouverte sur la baie de Palma

Pour transformer une nouvelle liaison aérienne en une expérience réussie, il est essentiel de choisir un établissement ouvert et opérationnel pendant toute la saison hivernale.

L’Hôtel Amic Horizonte est ouvert toute l’année. Il bénéficie d’une situation privilégiée face à la baie de Palma, à proximité de Porto Pi, du Paseo Marítimo, du Club de Mar et du port.

Ses vues panoramiques constituent déjà une première expérience de Majorque : la ville, le port, la Méditerranée et la vie quotidienne de la baie se découvrent depuis l’hôtel.

L’Amic Horizonte peut accueillir différents types de séjours :

City breaks au départ de Lyon.
Groupes culturels et associations.
Clubs cyclistes et groupes sportifs.
Séminaires et incentives.
Voyages gastronomiques.
Programmes bien-être.
Groupes d’amis.
Séjours personnalisés de trois, quatre ou sept nuits.

Chambres avec vue, petits-déjeuners face à la baie, terrasses, restauration et espaces pour les réunions permettent d’adapter chaque séjour aux besoins du groupe.

Des propositions sur mesure pour les agences et associations

Les agences de voyages, entreprises, associations et clubs souhaitant profiter de la nouvelle liaison peuvent demander un programme personnalisé comprenant :

Hébergement en chambre individuelle, double ou twin.
Petit-déjeuner, demi-pension ou restauration personnalisée.
Tarifs spécifiques pour les groupes.
Salles pour réunions et présentations.
Dîner de bienvenue ou de clôture.
Organisation des transferts.
Excursions et expériences à Majorque.
Services pour cyclistes et groupes sportifs.
Activités de bien-être.
Programmes de trois, quatre ou sept nuits.

La connectivité existe désormais. L’opportunité consiste à la transformer en expériences capables d’attirer de nouveaux visiteurs pendant tout l’hiver.

Quand débuteront les vols directs entre Lyon et Palma ?

La programmation hivernale débutera à la fin du mois d’octobre 2026 et se poursuivra jusqu’à la fin du mois de mars 2027.

Quels jours pourra-t-on voyager entre Lyon et Palma ?

Transavia assurera deux rotations hebdomadaires, les mercredis et les samedis.

Combien de temps dure le vol Lyon–Palma ?

La durée du vol direct est d’environ une heure et trente minutes.

Palma est-elle une bonne destination en hiver ?

Oui. Palma propose toute l’année patrimoine, gastronomie, culture, shopping, sport, bien-être et excursions.

L’hiver permet également de profiter de la ville et de l’île dans une atmosphère plus paisible et plus authentique.

Peut-on organiser un voyage de groupe depuis Lyon ?

Oui. Le calendrier des vols permet de préparer facilement des séjours de trois, quatre ou sept nuits pour les associations, entreprises, clubs sportifs, groupes culturels et agences de voyages.

Lyon–Palma : une nouvelle porte ouverte sur la Méditerranée

Chaque vol direct transforme notre relation avec une destination.

La liaison Lyon–Palma montre que Majorque peut être bien plus qu’une île réservée aux vacances d’été. Elle peut devenir une escapade culturelle, un voyage gastronomique, un séjour sportif, un événement d’entreprise ou simplement quelques jours de lumière méditerranéenne au cœur de l’hiver.

À partir de la fin du mois d’octobre, Lyon disposera d’une nouvelle porte ouverte sur la Méditerranée.

Et face à la baie de Palma, l’équipe de l’Hôtel Amic Horizonte sera prête à accueillir celles et ceux qui décideront de la franchir.

Vous êtes une agence de voyages, une association, une entreprise ou un club de la région lyonnaise ? Contactez Amic Hotels pour recevoir une proposition hivernale adaptée à votre groupe. grupos@amic-hotels.com

Joan Miró in Mallorca: Essential Palma Art Guide

2026-08-24T10:26:00.000+02:00

AROUND HORIZONTE | ART & CULTURE

Joan Miró in Mallorca: The Artist Who Taught the Island to Look at the Sky

An essential art journey from Hotel Amic Horizonte to Fundació Miró Mallorca

Some artists visit an island.

Joan Miró allowed an island to transform him.

To understand Miró in Mallorca is not simply to add a famous museum to a Palma itinerary. It is to discover the light, silence, objects, colours and Mediterranean landscape that accompanied one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century during the final—and one of the most radically creative—periods of his life.

Miró did not come to Mallorca to stop creating.

He came to begin again.

And just a short journey from Hotel Amic Horizonte, in the neighbouring district of Cala Major, visitors can enter the studios where that reinvention happened.

This is not merely one of the best museums in Palma de Mallorca. It is one of the island’s essential cultural experiences.

Joan Miró in Mallorca: the essential answer

The most important place to discover Joan Miró in Mallorca is the Fundació Miró Mallorca, whose historic full name is the Fundació Pilar i Joan Miró a Mallorca.

It is located at Carrer de Saridakis, 29, Cala Major, 07015 Palma, close to Hotel Amic Horizonte in La Bonanova–Porto Pi.

The visit includes:

Taller Sert, Miró’s purpose-built studio.
Son Boter, an eighteenth-century Mallorcan house used as his second studio.
The Moneo Building, designed by architect Rafael Moneo.
The museum collection and temporary exhibitions.
The sculpture garden.
Objects, tools, sketches and materials connected with Miró’s creative process.

The Foundation recommends allowing approximately two hours for the visit. Opening times, admission and guided visits should always be checked on the official Fundació Miró Mallorca website before travelling.

Mallorca was not Miró’s escape. It was his creative horizon

Joan Miró was born in Barcelona in 1893, but Mallorca had been present in his life since childhood. He visited the island regularly and married the Mallorcan Pilar Juncosa in Palma in 1929.

In 1956, Miró and Pilar settled permanently in Mallorca.

This date matters.

After years of moving between Barcelona, Paris, Mont-roig and other international centres of art, Miró finally obtained the large working space he had long imagined. His friend Josep Lluís Sert—one of the leading architects of the modern movement and then Dean of Harvard’s Graduate School of Design—created the studio that would become known as Taller Sert.

Miró had found his horizon.

From Palma, he continued questioning painting, experimenting with sculpture, printmaking, ceramics, assemblage, unconventional materials and objects found in everyday life. Mallorca did not soften his work. It gave him the space to become even freer.

He lived and worked in Palma until his death in 1983.

That is why it is insufficient to describe Miró merely as a celebrated artist who lived in Mallorca. He became part of the cultural identity of Palma, while Mallorca became part of the visual language of his mature work.

The birds, stars, suns, women, moons, intense blues, deep blacks and sudden flashes of red do not reproduce the island like a postcard. They seem to translate its energy.

Miró did not simply paint Mallorca.

He absorbed its light until it became a language.

Fundació Miró Mallorca: more than a museum

The Fundació Pilar i Joan Miró a Mallorca is exceptional because visitors do not encounter Miró only through finished works displayed on white walls.

They enter the places where creation actually happened.

In 1981, Joan Miró and Pilar Juncosa donated Taller Sert, Son Boter and the artworks, documents and objects they contained. Pilar later donated the land required for the museum and arranged for 42 works to be auctioned at Sotheby’s to help finance its construction. The Moneo Building opened to the public in 1992.

The Foundation’s collection now contains approximately 7,000 pieces, including paintings, sculptures, drawings, notebooks, prints, objects and documentary material. Its inventoried holdings include 118 paintings on canvas, 35 sculptures, more than 1,000 drawings and notebooks, and almost 2,000 prints. It also preserves Miró’s oldest surviving oil painting. Explore the official collection.

But numbers do not explain the emotional impact of the visit.

What stays with you is the sensation that the artist has only just left the room.

Taller Sert: the studio Miró had dreamed about

Taller Sert is not simply a beautiful piece of modern architecture. It is an instrument designed for creation.

Josep Lluís Sert adapted the building to Mallorca’s terraced terrain, climate and Mediterranean light. The interior allowed Miró to work on several canvases simultaneously and to separate active working areas from pieces he wanted to leave untouched for a time.

The geometry of the architecture, the northern light and the traces of work create an extraordinary dialogue between precision and freedom.

Paint, brushes, objects, postcards, newspaper cuttings and unfinished ideas turn the studio into something more intimate than a conventional museum gallery.

Here, visitors do not only see what Miró created.

They begin to understand how he looked.

Son Boter: where the walls still speak

Next to Taller Sert stands Son Boter, an eighteenth-century Mallorcan rural house acquired by Miró in 1959.

Its thick walls and larger spaces allowed him to work on monumental paintings and prepare ideas for sculptures. Original charcoal figures drawn by Miró remain visible on the walls.

They are direct, spontaneous and almost ghostlike.

Son Boter reveals a Miró who treated the studio itself as a surface for experimentation. The separation between artwork, object, building and landscape begins to disappear.

It may be the most powerful part of the visit precisely because it feels least like a museum.

The Moneo Building: architecture in dialogue with Miró

The Foundation’s main museum building was designed by Spanish architect Rafael Moneo.

Opened in 1992, it creates a contemporary architectural counterpoint to Taller Sert and Son Boter. Light, water, concrete and changing perspectives frame the collection without competing with it.

Together, these three spaces create an architectural journey across Mallorca’s history:

Son Boter represents traditional rural Mallorca.
Taller Sert expresses Mediterranean modernism.
The Moneo Building connects Miró’s legacy with contemporary culture.

Few art destinations allow visitors to experience an artist, his working environment and three distinct architectural languages in a single visit.

What can visitors see in 2026 and 2027?

The Foundation’s principal current exhibition is “Reencountering Miró. The Magic Spark”, scheduled from 11 February 2026 until 25 April 2027.

The exhibition focuses on the transformative period that began when Miró settled in Mallorca in 1956. It explores the artist’s process of self-criticism, experimentation and rediscovery through paintings, sculptures, drawings, photographs and everyday objects that triggered unexpected creative ideas.

The Library Pilar Juncosa also presents “Pilar Juncosa, l’estel fulgurant” until April 2028, recognising the woman whose intelligence, generosity and determination were indispensable to the preservation of Miró’s legacy.

Current and forthcoming exhibitions can be checked on the Fundació Miró Mallorca exhibitions page.

Why Hotel Amic Horizonte and Miró belong in the same journey

Hotel Amic Horizonte is situated in La Bonanova–Porto Pi, overlooking the Port and Bay of Palma, close to Cala Major and the places where Joan Miró lived and worked.

The connection is geographical, but it is also emotional.

Miró searched for light, distance, silence and the freedom to look differently. Hotel Amic Horizonte is defined by its elevated position, panoramic perspectives and the changing colours of the Bay of Palma.

At the hotel, the horizon is never merely a background. It changes throughout the day: pale and quiet in the morning, intensely blue at midday, golden at sunset and scattered with lights after dark.

The hotel’s cultural space, Horizon The Gallery, is built around the same conviction: a hotel should not be isolated from the creative life of its destination. Hospitality can introduce travellers to artists, neighbourhoods, stories and places that might otherwise remain undiscovered.

Hotel Amic Horizonte has no institutional affiliation with the Miró Foundation. Our recommendation is independent and sincere.

We do not want our guests simply to sleep in Palma.

We want them to understand where they have woken up.

A perfect Miró morning from Hotel Amic Horizonte

A cultural morning in western Palma can begin without rushing.

1. Breakfast overlooking the Bay of Palma

Begin at Hotel Amic Horizonte and watch the port and Mediterranean light change from the hotel’s elevated viewpoint.

After visiting Miró’s studios, you may recognise why this light mattered so much to the artist.

2. Visit Fundació Miró Mallorca

Travel to Carrer de Saridakis, 29. The urban geography around La Bonanova and Cala Major is hilly, so visitors who prefer an easier journey should ask reception about the most convenient walking, taxi or public transport option.

Allow around two hours to explore Taller Sert, Son Boter, the Moneo Building and the sculpture garden.

3. Continue to the Marivent Gardens

Close to the Foundation, the Marivent Gardens combine Mediterranean vegetation with an open-air display of twelve bronze sculptures by Joan Miró.

Admission is normally free, although the gardens may close during periods when the royal family is in residence. Current opening information should therefore be checked before visiting on the official Balearic Islands tourism website.

4. Walk towards Cala Major

Continue towards Cala Major beach for coffee, lunch or a walk beside the Mediterranean.

This contrast—studio, sculpture garden, neighbourhood and sea—helps visitors understand that Miró’s Mallorca was not contained within a museum. It was a complete physical and emotional landscape.

5. Return to Hotel Amic Horizonte for sunset

Come back to the hotel in the late afternoon.

The Bay of Palma will still be there, but after Miró, you may not look at it in quite the same way.

Where else can you see Joan Miró’s work in Palma?

Fundació Miró Mallorca is the essential destination, but Miró’s presence extends across the city.

Marivent Gardens

Located near Cala Major and the Foundation, the gardens contain twelve bronze sculptures surrounded by Mediterranean plants. It is one of Palma’s most attractive free open-air art experiences.

Es Baluard Museu d’Art Contemporani de Palma

Es Baluard, beside the historic walls of Palma, holds an important group of Joan Miró works within its collection. Its official artist catalogue currently identifies 33 works, including pieces from the Mallorca series, Ubu aux Baléares and works from the artist’s later years.

Not every piece is displayed permanently, so visitors should check the current exhibitions before travelling. Discover Joan Miró in the Es Baluard collection.

Museu Fundación Juan March Palma

In the historic centre, the Museu Fundación Juan March presents a strong collection of twentieth-century Spanish art. Its holdings include Miró’s The Parrot from 1937, a gouache on paper mounted on canvas.

The museum provides an opportunity to see Miró in conversation with other major figures of modern Spanish art. As displays may rotate, availability should be confirmed before visiting. View The Parrot in the Fundación Juan March collection.

Hotel Joan Miró Museum

The Hotel Joan Miró Museum in Cala Major, managed by Summum Hotel Group, describes itself as the only hotel in the world dedicated to Joan Miró. Located approximately 200 metres from the Foundation, its art-inspired identity adds another dimension to the neighbourhood’s relationship with the artist.

Its existence deserves recognition. It demonstrates that Miró is not simply the name of one museum but part of Cala Major’s cultural identity.

At Hotel Amic Horizonte, we believe culture becomes stronger when an entire destination helps tell its story.

Why Miró belongs in every Palma city break

Palma is often presented through its cathedral, beaches, marina, gastronomy and historic streets.

All of those experiences matter.

But a visit to Fundació Miró Mallorca reveals another Palma: experimental, international, rebellious and deeply creative.

It is especially valuable for:

Art and architecture lovers.
Couples planning a cultural city break in Palma.
Visitors looking for authentic things to do beyond the beach.
Travellers interested in twentieth-century art.
Architecture students and admirers of Sert and Moneo.
Cruise passengers with time to explore western Palma.
Guests visiting Mallorca in autumn or winter.
Anyone searching for meaningful places near Hotel Amic Horizonte.

The Foundation is not an attraction to visit only when the weather changes. It is a reason in itself to travel to Palma.

And because Hotel Amic Horizonte is open throughout the year, Miró’s Mallorca can be discovered in every season—without the pace and crowds of midsummer.

Frequently asked questions about Joan Miró in Mallorca

Where is the Joan Miró museum in Mallorca?

Fundació Miró Mallorca, officially the Fundació Pilar i Joan Miró a Mallorca, is located at Carrer de Saridakis, 29, in Cala Major, Palma de Mallorca.

Is Fundació Miró Mallorca close to Hotel Amic Horizonte?

Yes. Hotel Amic Horizonte is in the neighbouring La Bonanova–Porto Pi area, approximately one kilometre from the Foundation according to local accommodation listings. Because the streets are hilly and actual routes vary, guests should ask reception for the easiest option.

How long should I allow for the Miró Foundation?

The Foundation recommends approximately two hours. Art and architecture enthusiasts may wish to stay longer.

What are the highlights of the visit?

The essential highlights are Taller Sert, Son Boter, the Moneo Building, the museum collection and the sculpture garden.

Did Joan Miró live in Mallorca?

Yes. Miró had long-standing family and personal connections with the island, married Pilar Juncosa in Palma and settled permanently in Mallorca in 1956. He lived and worked in Palma until his death in 1983.

Why was Mallorca important to Joan Miró?

Mallorca gave Miró the large studio, light, physical space and distance he needed to reassess his previous work and experiment with new materials, formats and artistic disciplines.

Is the Miró Foundation in Mallorca the same as the one in Barcelona?

No. The Fundació Joan Miró in Barcelona and the Fundació Pilar i Joan Miró a Mallorca are separate institutions. The Mallorca foundation is especially significant because it preserves the artist’s original Palma studios and many of the objects connected with his working process.

Where else can I see Miró in Palma?

Miró works can also be found in the Marivent Gardens, the collection of Es Baluard Museu and the Museu Fundación Juan March Palma. Displays can change, so current information should be checked before visiting.

Is the Foundation worth visiting if I am not an art expert?

Absolutely. The studios, architecture, gardens and personal objects make the visit accessible even to people with little previous knowledge of modern art.

A different way of seeing Palma

Some visitors remember Miró’s stars.

Others remember the birds, the reds and blacks, the enormous canvases or the strange objects waiting to become sculptures.

Others remember the charcoal figures on the walls of Son Boter or the silence inside Taller Sert.

But almost everyone leaves looking more carefully at the world around them.

And when you return to Hotel Amic Horizonte and see the Bay of Palma opening below, perhaps the sky will feel larger, the colours sharper and the horizon slightly less predictable.

The view has not changed.

You have.

That is why Fundació Miró Mallorca is not merely a nearby recommendation. It is an essential chapter in our Around Palma series and one of the experiences no culturally curious visitor should miss.

Stay close to Miró. Discover the creative side of Palma. Return to the horizon with different eyes.

AROUND THE HORIZONTE . TODAY AZOTEA RESTAURANT ( Club de Mar )

2026-08-20T13:13:24.486+02:00

YOUR HOTEL SHOULD KNOW THE NEIGHBOURHOOD.

One of the things we love about staying at Hotel Amic Horizonte is that Palma does not begin when you reach the city centre.

It begins right here.

Around the hotel, Club de Mar, Porto Pi, the Paseo Marítimo, the marina and the Bay of Palma are becoming one of the most interesting areas of the city for eating, drinking, walking and simply enjoying the Mediterranean.

And from time to time, we want to share the places around us that we genuinely think are worth discovering.

Today’s recommendation: Azotea Club de Mar.

Located below us, inside the renewed Club de Mar-Mallorca, Azotea brings contemporary Mediterranean cuisine to one of Palma’s most distinctive nautical settings, with a menu led by chef Manuel Berganza and built around product, seasonality and the flavours of the Mediterranean.

But there is another reason why we particularly like this recommendation.

Look at the picture.

Have dinner by the marina, look towards the hills… and there we are.

Hotel Amic Horizonte, watching over the same neighbourhood and the same Bay of Palma.

That is exactly how we understand travel.

Stay with us.
Have breakfast overlooking Palma Bay.
Walk down towards the sea.
Discover the marina.
Try a restaurant we recommend.
Have a drink by the boats.
And when the evening is over…

come back to the Horizon.

Because sometimes the best hotel recommendation is not inside the hotel.

It is just around the corner.

Azotea Club de Mar — highly recommended from your neighbours at Hotel Amic Horizonte.

The Unexpected Soul of Hotel Amic Horizonte in Palma

2026-08-19T16:07:30.978+02:00

Meet Rino at Hotel Amic Horizonte in Palma

Meet Rino: The Unexpected Soul of Hotel Amic Horizonte in Palma

At Hotel Amic Horizonte, we have a very special guest.

He never books a room.
He does not need to check in.
He never asks for a sea view, a late check-out or a table for breakfast.

And yet, he has become one of the hotel’s most photographed, recognisable and beloved residents.

He remains silent, watching life unfold around him. Every day, he welcomes travellers arriving from across the world: couples discovering Mallorca, families beginning a Mediterranean holiday, business travellers, cruise passengers, sailors and guests returning to Palma once again.

He is strong, calm, unexpected and absolutely unmistakable.

He is our Rino.

And although nobody expects to find a rhinoceros inside a hotel overlooking the Bay of Palma, today it would be impossible for us to imagine Hotel Amic Horizonte without him.

Who is Rino at Hotel Amic Horizonte?

Rino is the iconic rhinoceros figure that has become part of the identity and personality of Hotel Amic Horizonte, a hotel overlooking the Bay and Port of Palma de Mallorca.

He is not simply a decorative object.

For our guests, he is a meeting point, a surprising discovery and one of those small details that make a hotel stay memorable. For those of us who work here, Rino represents something even more important: strength, serenity, resilience and the courage to be different.

In a city filled with beautiful monuments, Mediterranean architecture and spectacular views, Rino has quietly become our own unexpected landmark.

Not every landmark appears on a city map.

Some landmarks belong to the stories we take home.

The art of finding something unexpected

The most memorable hotels are not always the most predictable ones.

They are the places with a particular light, a distinctive view, an unusual corner or an object that makes us stop, smile and reach for our camera. They are places that feel alive because they possess a personality of their own.

That is what happens when guests encounter Rino for the first time.

There is normally a brief moment of surprise.

Why is there a rhinoceros here?

What is its story?

Has it always lived at the Horizonte?

Soon afterwards comes the photograph. Sometimes serious, sometimes affectionate and frequently very creative. Children approach him with curiosity, couples pose beside him and returning guests greet him almost as if he were an old friend.

Rino changes the atmosphere around him without saying a word.

That is the power of unexpected art: it does not merely occupy a space. It creates an emotion, begins a conversation and becomes part of a memory.

A silent observer above the Bay of Palma

Rino lives in a privileged part of Mallorca.

Hotel Amic Horizonte is located in Palma, overlooking one of the most dynamic Mediterranean landscapes on the island: the Bay of Palma.

From the hotel’s terraces, rooms and panoramic spaces, guests can watch cruise ships arriving at the Port of Palma, sailing boats crossing the bay, ferries beginning new journeys and the colours of the city changing from morning to sunset.

The hotel is approximately two kilometres from Palma city centre and close to the Port of Palma, Porto Pi Shopping Centre and the revitalised Paseo Marítimo. It is also ideally positioned for discovering places such as Bellver Castle, the Club de Mar area, the historic centre of Palma and the city’s waterfront restaurants and nightlife.

Palma Cathedral appears in the distance. The Mediterranean occupies the horizon. Ships come and go.

And Rino remains exactly where he is.

Watching.

Waiting.

Welcoming the next traveller.

Why a rhinoceros belongs at the Horizonte

At first, a rhinoceros and a hotel overlooking Palma Bay may seem to have very little in common.

Look more closely, however, and the connection begins to make sense.

A rhinoceros represents strength without noise. It does not need to demand attention to have a powerful presence. It is solid, calm and unmistakably different.

Hotel Amic Horizonte also has its own character.

This is not an anonymous building that could be placed in any city. Its architecture follows the hillside. Its rooms have different orientations, shapes and perspectives. Its terraces look towards the port, the city and the Mediterranean. Every corner offers another way of experiencing Palma.

There is no single Horizonte.

There are many Horizontes, depending on the room you choose, the view you discover, the light of the day and the story you bring with you.

Rino belongs here because he also refuses to be ordinary.

A hotel with personality in Palma de Mallorca

Travellers often search for the best hotel views in Palma, a hotel near the Palma cruise port or somewhere convenient for exploring the city. Location, comfort and services are naturally important.

But the places we truly remember normally offer something more.

They have a soul.

Hotel Amic Horizonte combines panoramic views over Palma Bay with the personality of an independent, welcoming hotel. Guests can enjoy the rooftop swimming pool, relax on the terraces, have breakfast overlooking the Mediterranean, discover the hotel’s gastronomy or simply watch the movement of the port below.

Business travellers appreciate the hotel’s location and meeting spaces. Couples come for sunsets and romantic escapes. Cruise passengers choose the area for its proximity to the Port of Palma. Cyclists, sailors, artists, groups and digital nomads all experience the building differently.

But many of them eventually meet the same silent host.

Rino.

He reminds us that hospitality is not only about providing a room. It is about creating moments that could not have happened anywhere else.

The photograph every guest wants to take

Some hotel photographs are planned.

The view from the room.
The first morning coffee.
The swimming pool beneath the Mallorcan sun.
The lights of Palma reflected across the bay.

The photograph with Rino is different.

It normally happens spontaneously.

You turn a corner, find something you did not expect and suddenly want to capture the moment. That surprise is precisely what makes the photograph authentic.

If you meet Rino during your stay, take your picture, share your most creative pose and tag @hotelhorizonte.mallorca.

Use the hashtags:

#RinoHorizonte
#HotelAmicHorizonte
#TheRhinoOfPalma
#PalmaBay
#PalmaDeMallorca

Every photograph adds a new chapter to his story.

Rino may never leave the hotel, but thanks to our guests, he travels around the world.

More than decoration: a symbol of belonging

Objects become symbols when people attach memories to them.

For one guest, Rino may be the first photograph of a holiday in Mallorca. For another, he may represent a romantic weekend in Palma, a family trip, the beginning of a cruise or a business visit that unexpectedly became something more personal.

For our team, he represents continuity.

He has watched guests arrive and depart, friendships begin, celebrations take place and thousands of sunsets disappear behind the Bay of Palma. He has witnessed the hotel evolve while remaining part of its identity.

Rino does not speak, but he tells a story about the Horizonte:

A hotel can be welcoming without being conventional.

It can be accessible without losing its personality.

It can look towards the future while protecting the details that make it unique.

Discover the hotel where Palma meets the horizon

If you are looking for a hotel with panoramic views in Palma de Mallorca, Hotel Amic Horizonte offers much more than a place to sleep.

It offers a window over the Bay of Palma.

A position close to the port, Porto Pi and the Paseo Marítimo.

Terraces made for watching Mediterranean sunsets.

Rooms with different views and personalities.

And one remarkably unusual resident.

Come for Palma.
Come for the Mediterranean.
Come for the views.

But before you leave, make sure you meet Rino.

Because some guests check out and disappear.

Others become part of the hotel forever.

Flight + Hotel in Mallorca: One Island, Two Ways to Experience It with Amic Hotels

Palma city views or Mediterranean beach days? Why choose anyone else when you can choose the Mallorca that suits you?

First, choose your flight. Then find a hotel. Compare prices, check locations, open ten different tabs and hope that everything fits together.

Or simply choose Mallorca.

With the Amic Hotels Flight + Hotel package, you can plan your journey to Palma de Mallorca and your hotel stay in one convenient booking process. Less searching, fewer complications and more time to imagine the moment when the aircraft begins its descent over the Mediterranean.

One island. Two different Mallorca experiences. One easy booking.

Why book your flight and hotel together for Mallorca?

Booking a Mallorca flight and hotel package is not only about convenience. It gives you a clearer picture of your trip from the very beginning.

Instead of calculating flights and accommodation separately, you can search for the combination that best suits your dates, departure airport, preferred hotel and budget.

The main advantages include:

A clearer view of the total cost of your Mallorca holiday.
Less time comparing separate websites and reservations.
Access to different flight options, depending on origin and availability.
Travel assistance insurance during your stay.

Because a holiday should begin with excitement, not with twenty browser tabs.

Hotel Amic Horizonte: fly to Mallorca and wake up above Palma Bay

If your idea of Mallorca includes city life, sea views, rooftop moments, restaurants, culture, shopping and sunsets, Hotel Amic Horizonte is your hotel.

Located in La Bonanova, Palma de Mallorca, Hotel Amic Horizonte enjoys an elevated position overlooking the Bay of Palma, the Port of Palma and the Mediterranean Sea. The hotel is approximately two kilometres from Palma city centre and close to some of the most dynamic areas of the capital.

But Hotel Amic Horizonte is much more than a convenient base from which to explore Palma.

Its panoramic terraces and rooftop swimming pool turn the hotel into a destination of its own. You can begin the morning with breakfast overlooking Palma Bay, spend the day discovering the city and return for a drink while the light changes over the port.

It is an ideal choice for a Palma de Mallorca city break, but also for couples, cruise passengers extending their stay, business travellers, remote workers, cyclists and guests combining work with leisure.

Christmas in Mallorca 2026: The Ultimate Guide to Palma, Puerto Portals and the Mediterranean Waterfront

2026-08-14T17:28:02.478+02:00

Last updated: 14 August 2026

Christmas in Mallorca is different. There may be no snow-covered streets, but there are illuminated palm trees, historic squares, Mediterranean sunsets, elegant marinas, festive markets and café terraces where winter still feels wonderfully close to the sea.

For British travellers looking for a Christmas break with culture, shopping, gastronomy and milder Mediterranean weather, Palma de Mallorca is one of Europe’s most appealing winter city destinations.

The essential experiences for Christmas in Mallorca in 2026 include the famous Puerto Portals Christmas Market, Palma’s festive lights and traditional markets, Christmas shopping at Porto Pi, the newly transformed Club de Mar-Mallorca and long walks along Palma’s redesigned seafront promenade.

And from Hotel Amic Horizonte, overlooking the Bay of Palma, all these places become part of the same Christmas journey.

Is Mallorca worth visiting at Christmas?

Yes. Mallorca at Christmas is ideal for travellers who want to combine the atmosphere of a European festive city break with the light, sea and slower rhythm of the Mediterranean.

December in Mallorca is quieter than summer, making it easier to explore Palma’s old town, visit the Cathedral, find a table in a local restaurant and enjoy the waterfront without the intensity of the high season.

Christmas in Palma is particularly attractive for couples, groups of friends, solo travellers and British visitors planning a short winter escape. The city offers shopping, culture, gastronomy, nightlife and traditional Mallorcan celebrations, while the marinas and promenade retain their Mediterranean character throughout the winter.

It is not a conventional Christmas destination. That is precisely its charm.

Puerto Portals Christmas Market 2026: Mallorca’s most glamorous festive market

The Puerto Portals Christmas Market is one of the highlights of Christmas in Mallorca and one of the island’s most elegant seasonal events.

The official Puerto Portals programme currently announces the 2026 market from 11 December 2026 until 6 January 2027.

More than 60 traditional wooden stalls, decorated with fir trees and garlands of lights, will line the marina. Visitors can browse Christmas decorations, fashion accessories, artisan products, gifts and distinctive items while enjoying a varied gastronomic offer beside some of Mallorca’s most impressive yachts.

Puerto Portals is located in Portals Nous, south-west of Palma. Its combination of marina lifestyle, restaurants, designer boutiques and festive lights gives the market a sophisticated atmosphere that is particularly appealing in the evening.

Come before sunset, walk along the harbour as the lights begin to appear and stay for dinner or a seasonal drink. It is an easy half-day or evening excursion from Palma and an essential answer to the question: What is the best Christmas market in Mallorca?

For many visitors, Puerto Portals is the island’s most atmospheric Christmas market: Mediterranean, elegant and unmistakably Mallorcan.

Puerto Portals Christmas Market 2026

Location: Puerto Portals, Portals Nous, Calvià, Mallorca
Announced dates: 11 December 2026–6 January 2027
Highlights: more than 60 wooden stalls, Christmas gifts, decorations, food and drinks
Best time to visit: late afternoon and evening
Recommended for: couples, friends, food lovers and Christmas shopping

Event details may be adjusted, so check the official programme before travelling.

Christmas lights and markets in Palma de Mallorca

Palma becomes one of the most beautiful winter cities in the Mediterranean during the Christmas season.

The historic centre is transformed by festive lighting around Plaça d’Espanya, Carrer de Sant Miquel, Plaça Major, Plaça de Cort, Passeig del Born, La Rambla and Avenida Jaume III. The contrast between the illuminated streets, sandstone architecture and winter evening sky gives Christmas in Palma a character of its own.

Start at Plaça d’Espanya and walk towards the old town through Carrer de Sant Miquel. Continue through Plaça Major and Plaça de Cort before reaching Passeig del Born and La Rambla. Along the way, look for traditional nativity scenes, artisan stalls, seasonal food and Mallorcan Christmas products.

Palma’s complete Christmas 2026 programme and market dates will be announced closer to the season. Travellers should consult the official Visit Palma website before visiting.

Unlike the busiest summer months, Christmas allows you to experience Palma at a more relaxed pace. Stop for coffee, browse local shops, discover independent galleries and enjoy dinner in La Lonja, Santa Catalina or the old town.

This is not simply shopping beneath Christmas lights. It is a chance to see Palma behaving like a real Mediterranean city in winter.

Christmas shopping and festive evenings at Porto Pi

Porto Pi is one of Palma’s principal shopping and leisure areas and becomes especially useful during the Christmas season.

Located at the western end of Palma, close to the port, Club de Mar and Hotel Amic Horizonte, Porto Pi Shopping Centre brings together fashion, beauty, technology, restaurants, cafés, a cinema and practical services in one convenient location.

It is an excellent option for Christmas shopping in Mallorca, particularly when you want to combine international brands with lunch, dinner or a cinema evening without travelling into the historic centre.

Porto Pi also offers something especially valuable during a December break: flexibility. A morning beside the sea can be followed by Christmas shopping, drinks, dinner or a film, all within the same part of Palma.

The Christmas 2026 decorations, promotions and special events will be announced nearer the festive period. Check the centre’s official agenda for confirmed dates and opening times, especially around Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day.

The new Club de Mar-Mallorca: Palma’s waterfront enters a new era

Christmas 2026 will be the first festive season in which visitors can fully experience the newly transformed Club de Mar-Mallorca.

Founded in 1972, Club de Mar was created to attract the large yachts of the French Riviera to the Bay of Palma. More than five decades later, it has completed a major redevelopment that reconnects the marina with the city.

According to Club de Mar-Mallorca, its four-building complex was completed and inaugurated in 2026. One of the most important changes is that the new commercial and gastronomic area is open to the public and integrated with Palma’s redesigned seafront promenade.

The complex includes restaurants and cafés overlooking the marina, commercial areas and event spaces. Its current dining selection includes Azotea Club de Mar, Saltao de Mar, Cantina Grill and Mar Salada.

At Christmas, this new waterfront district offers a different side of Palma: yachts dressed with lights, winter sunsets over the harbour, restaurants beside the water and the feeling of being close to the international nautical life of Mallorca.

For visitors staying near Porto Pi or Hotel Amic Horizonte, Club de Mar can become part of the daily experience rather than a separate excursion: coffee in the morning, a waterfront walk in the afternoon or dinner overlooking the marina.

Walk Palma’s seafront promenade at Christmas

One of the simplest and best things to do in Palma at Christmas is to walk along the Passeig Marítim.

Palma’s official tourism website describes the route between Porto Pi and Portixol as one of the city’s most popular waterfront itineraries. It combines the urban landscape with marinas, boats, palm trees, sea views and direct access towards the historic centre.

Begin near Porto Pi and Club de Mar and walk in the direction of Palma Cathedral. Continue towards the old town, Parc de la Mar or Portixol depending on the weather and how far you want to go.

The route is particularly beautiful during the softer light of a December afternoon. As evening approaches, the city lights begin to appear around the harbour while the illuminated Cathedral rises above the Bay of Palma.

You do not need a timetable or an organised tour. Comfortable shoes, a light jacket and enough time to stop for coffee or a drink are all that is required.

This combination of sea, city and winter light is one of the reasons why a Christmas break in Palma feels so different from Christmas in northern Europe.

Experience an authentic Mallorcan Christmas tradition

For a deeper connection with Mallorca, Christmas Eve offers one of the island’s most important cultural traditions: the Cant de la Sibil·la, or Chant of the Sibyl.

This medieval liturgical chant is performed during Christmas Eve services in churches across Mallorca, including Palma Cathedral. It has been recognised by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage.

Even for visitors who are not religious, hearing the chant inside a historic Mallorcan church can be one of the most moving experiences of Christmas in Mallorca.

If you wish to attend the performance at Palma Cathedral or another church, check the official Christmas Eve schedule in advance. Services can be busy, and access arrangements may vary.

On 31 December, Palma also celebrates the Festa de l’Estendard, one of Europe’s oldest civic commemorations, connecting the final day of the year with the city’s medieval history.

Mallorca’s Christmas is not imported. It has its own voice, rituals and identity.

What to eat in Mallorca at Christmas

A Christmas trip to Mallorca should leave time for local food.

Look for Mallorcan cured meats, island cheeses, local olive oil, almonds, wines and traditional pastries. Ensaimada remains essential at breakfast, while seasonal menus often combine Mediterranean fish, seafood, meat and local produce.

Palma offers very different dining districts within a relatively compact area:

La Lonja for atmospheric streets and evening dining
Santa Catalina for international restaurants and lively bars
Palma Old Town for traditional architecture and hidden courtyards
Passeig Marítim for waterfront restaurants and nightlife
Club de Mar for the new marina dining experience
Puerto Portals for an elegant Christmas evening beside the yachts

Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve restaurant reservations should be made in advance. Special menus are common, and many establishments operate with reduced or different opening hours.

A perfect three-day Christmas itinerary in Palma

Day one: Porto Pi, Club de Mar and the Bay of Palma

Arrive in Palma and check in at Hotel Amic Horizonte. Begin with the panoramic view over the port and the Bay of Palma, then walk down towards Porto Pi.

Spend some time Christmas shopping before continuing to the newly opened public areas of Club de Mar. Walk along the marina, explore its restaurants and finish the afternoon beside the seafront.

Return to the hotel for a sunset drink or dinner with Palma’s harbour lights in the distance.

Day two: Palma’s old town and Christmas lights

Start with breakfast overlooking the Bay of Palma.

Travel into the city centre and explore Palma Cathedral, Parc de la Mar, La Lonja and the historic streets around Plaça de Cort and Plaça Major.

In the afternoon, follow the Christmas lights through Passeig del Born, La Rambla, Carrer de Sant Miquel and Plaça d’Espanya. Stop at the festive stalls and finish with dinner in the old town or Santa Catalina.

Day three: Puerto Portals Christmas Market

Spend the morning at a relaxed pace before travelling to Portals Nous.

Arrive at Puerto Portals during the afternoon, explore the market’s wooden stalls and stay as the marina lights come on. Browse gifts, enjoy the gastronomic offer and take a winter walk beside the yachts.

Return to Palma for a final evening around Club de Mar, the Passeig Marítim or Hotel Amic Horizonte.

Where to stay for Christmas in Palma de Mallorca

The best place to stay for this itinerary is somewhere that connects Palma’s old town with Porto Pi, Club de Mar, the port and the road towards Puerto Portals.

Hotel Amic Horizonte is open throughout the year and occupies a privileged position above Palma’s harbour. The hotel is approximately two kilometres from the city centre and close to Porto Pi Shopping Centre, the Port of Palma, Club de Mar and the Passeig Marítim.

Its elevated location provides panoramic views across the Bay of Palma, the cruise port and Palma Cathedral. These views are especially atmospheric during winter mornings and illuminated December evenings.

For British visitors, it offers a practical base for combining:

Christmas shopping in Porto Pi
The new restaurants and public spaces at Club de Mar
Walks along Palma’s waterfront
Palma Cathedral and the historic centre
The Puerto Portals Christmas Market
Restaurants, nightlife and winter events
Short Christmas and New Year city breaks

Rather than choosing between the historic city and the marina district, Hotel Amic Horizonte places you between both worlds.

Practical advice for British travellers visiting Mallorca at Christmas

Mallorca uses the euro, and Spanish plug types C and F differ from the British three-pin plug, so bring an adaptor.

December weather can be mild and bright, but evenings beside the sea may feel cooler. Pack layers, comfortable walking shoes and a light waterproof jacket rather than assuming every day will feel like summer.

Winter flight schedules from the UK are more limited than in high season, so book early and check the operating days from your preferred airport.

Reserve accommodation and special Christmas meals in advance. Always confirm festive opening hours, as shops, attractions and restaurants may change their schedules around 24, 25 and 31 December and 1 and 6 January.

For the best experience, combine organised plans with free time. Mallorca at Christmas is made for long breakfasts, waterfront walks and unplanned stops in the winter sun.

What are the best things to do in Mallorca at Christmas?

The best Christmas experiences include the Puerto Portals Christmas Market, Palma’s festive lights and old-town markets, Christmas shopping at Porto Pi, visiting the new Club de Mar, walking along the Passeig Marítim and hearing the Cant de la Sibil·la on Christmas Eve.

When is the Puerto Portals Christmas Market in 2026?

The official Puerto Portals event page currently announces the market from 11 December 2026 to 6 January 2027. Check the official programme before travelling in case of changes.

Where is the best Christmas market in Mallorca?

Puerto Portals is one of Mallorca’s best-known and most elegant Christmas markets. Palma also hosts traditional festive stalls and markets around its central squares and streets.

Is Palma lively during Christmas?

Yes. Palma remains an active year-round city. Its shopping streets, restaurants, cultural venues, Porto Pi, waterfront districts and many hotels remain active during the Christmas period, although individual opening hours should be checked.

Can you walk along Palma’s seafront in winter?

Yes. The Passeig Marítim is ideal for walking throughout the year. The popular waterfront route links Porto Pi with central Palma and continues towards Portixol.

Hotel Amic Horizonte is a strong option for couples seeking panoramic bay views and convenient access to Porto Pi, Club de Mar, the Passeig Marítim, Palma’s historic centre and the route towards Puerto Portals.

Is Mallorca a good Christmas destination from the UK?

Yes. Mallorca is well suited to British travellers looking for a short-haul European Christmas break combining Mediterranean scenery, shopping, food, culture and a more relaxed winter atmosphere.

Christmas looks different from the Horizon

Christmas in Mallorca is not about recreating northern Europe beneath Mediterranean skies.

It is about discovering another way to experience December: walking beside the sea, seeing yachts reflected in festive lights, listening to a medieval song inside Palma Cathedral, shopping in the old town and watching the winter sun disappear behind the Bay of Palma.

From Puerto Portals to Porto Pi, from Club de Mar to Palma Cathedral, the island brings together tradition, modernity and Mediterranean life.

And from Hotel Amic Horizonte, Christmas is not only something you celebrate.

It is something you can see coming across the entire Bay of Palma.

Plan ahead for Christmas 2026. Book your winter stay directly with Hotel Amic Horizonte and discover Palma from its most extraordinary viewpoint.

Discover a different kind of Christmas in Mallorca: Puerto Portals market, Palma’s festive lights, Porto Pi, the new Club de Mar and Mediterranean winter views from Hotel Amic Horizonte.

Hotel cerca del Club de Mar Mallorca: Hotel Amic Horizonte, la base en tierra de la comunidad náutica de Palma

Palma siempre ha vivido mirando al mar. Sin embargo, la transformación del Club de Mar-Mallorca, la renovación del Paseo Marítimo y la llegada de nuevos espacios de gastronomía y ocio están creando algo todavía mayor: un auténtico distrito náutico, profesional y social junto a la bahía de Palma.

En una posición elevada sobre el puerto, muy cerca de este nuevo eje marítimo, el Hotel Amic Horizonte reúne una combinación difícil de encontrar: proximidad al Club de Mar, 199 habitaciones, vistas panorámicas, desayuno, restauración, espacios para reuniones, servicios para estancias profesionales y una conexión cómoda con Portopí, el Puerto de Palma, el centro histórico y el aeropuerto.

Para tripulantes, capitanes, clientes de yacht charter, brokers, técnicos, empresas de refit, organizadores de regatas y profesionales que trabajan alrededor de los grandes yates, esta ubicación tiene un significado muy concreto: poder dormir, desayunar, reunirse y descansar a pocos minutos de la embarcación o del lugar de trabajo.

Respuesta rápida: si buscas un hotel cerca del Club de Mar-Mallorca, el Hotel Amic Horizonte es una de las opciones con mejor proximidad y mayor capacidad de la zona. Está situado en Carrer de Vista Alegre, 1, sobre el Puerto de Palma y a pocos minutos en vehículo del Club de Mar, en el Muelle de Pelaires. Abre todo el año y ofrece alojamiento, desayuno, restauración, Wi-Fi, lavandería autoservicio, gimnasio, salas de reuniones, consigna y atención directa para empresas, grupos y estancias prolongadas.

No se trata únicamente de estar cerca del mar. Se trata de formar parte del lugar en el que hoy se está definiendo el nuevo horizonte náutico de Palma.

El nuevo Club de Mar-Mallorca cambia el mapa náutico y urbano de Palma

El Club de Mar-Mallorca es una de las instituciones náuticas de referencia de Palma y del Mediterráneo. Tras una transformación integral, el nuevo complejo está formado por cuatro edificios interconectados y se abre a la ciudad mediante nuevas pasarelas peatonales que refuerzan la conexión entre el puerto, el Paseo Marítimo y Palma.

La marina dispone de 543 amarres. Más de 70 están preparados para superyates, megayates y gigayates de entre 40 y 170 metros, una capacidad poco habitual en el Mediterráneo. A su alrededor se desarrolla una comunidad formada por propietarios, capitanes, tripulaciones, yacht managers, empresas de charter, brokers, ingenieros, técnicos, proveedores, escuelas náuticas y organizadores de eventos.

El nuevo Club de Mar no es únicamente una marina. Es un ecosistema completo que une:

Náutica deportiva y grandes yates.
Servicios profesionales y empresas especializadas.
Regatas y acontecimientos internacionales.
Restauración, comercio y vida social.
Formación, deporte y bienestar.
Una relación mucho más abierta entre el puerto y la ciudad.

Esta transformación sitúa al Hotel Amic Horizonte en una posición especialmente valiosa. El hotel ya no está simplemente cerca del Puerto de Palma: se encuentra junto a uno de los grandes polos náuticos, empresariales y sociales de Mallorca.

Hotel Amic Horizonte: una ubicación estratégica sobre el Club de Mar y la bahía de Palma

El Hotel Amic Horizonte está situado en Carrer de Vista Alegre, 1, en la zona de La Bonanova-Portopí, por encima del Paseo Marítimo y del Puerto de Palma. Su posición elevada permite contemplar la bahía, las terminales marítimas, los cruceros, las embarcaciones y buena parte del frente marítimo de la ciudad.

El Club de Mar se encuentra en el Muelle de Pelaires, dentro del mismo entorno portuario. El recorrido exacto depende del acceso, del punto concreto del Club al que se dirija el visitante y del tráfico, pero la conexión habitual en taxi o vehículo es de pocos minutos. El hotel es, por tanto, una de las opciones de alojamiento completo mejor situadas para quienes necesitan trabajar, embarcar, desembarcar o asistir a un evento en el Club de Mar.

Esta proximidad resulta especialmente útil cuando una jornada depende de horarios que pueden cambiar: la llegada de una embarcación, una entrevista, una revisión técnica, el relevo de una tripulación, una reparación, una reunión con un broker o el inicio de un charter.

El huésped puede estar cerca de la actividad sin renunciar al descanso. Al terminar el día, regresa a una habitación desde la que, en muchos casos, puede seguir viendo el mismo puerto y la misma bahía que forman parte de su vida profesional.

Un hotel para tripulaciones y cambios de staff en Palma

Los cambios de tripulación forman parte del funcionamiento habitual de un yate. Un miembro del equipo desembarca, otro llega desde el aeropuerto, se celebran entrevistas, se completan certificados, se espera una incorporación o se produce un cambio de fechas. En estas situaciones, un alojamiento próximo, flexible y abierto todo el año no es un lujo: es una necesidad operativa.

El Hotel Amic Horizonte es una opción especialmente adecuada para:

Tripulantes que llegan a Palma antes de embarcar.
Profesionales que acaban de desembarcar y necesitan una estancia de transición.
Candidatos convocados para entrevistas o pruebas.
Cambios de staff que requieren una o varias noches de alojamiento.
Tripulantes que asisten a cursos, formación o renovación de certificados.
Personal desplazado durante una reparación o un proyecto de mantenimiento.
Equipos completos que necesitan habitaciones y un punto común de reunión.
Familiares o acompañantes que visitan a un miembro de la tripulación.

La recepción 24 horas, la consigna de equipajes, el Wi-Fi, el escritorio en las habitaciones, el gimnasio, la lavandería autoservicio y las opciones de restauración ayudan a resolver necesidades muy prácticas. Para empresas, grupos y estancias prolongadas, reservar por el canal directo permite explicar cada caso al hotel y solicitar una propuesta adaptada a las fechas, el número de personas y la duración prevista.

En el sector náutico, los horarios no siempre se comportan como una reserva vacacional convencional. Por eso, tener un interlocutor hotelero directo cerca del Club de Mar puede facilitar mucho la llegada y la organización del equipo.

Alojamiento de invierno para el refit y el mantenimiento de yates en Palma

El invierno es una de las épocas más importantes para la industria náutica de Mallorca. Cuando desciende la actividad puramente vacacional, Palma continúa recibiendo yates para trabajos de reparación, mantenimiento, actualización y refit. Es también un periodo habitual de cambios de staff, contratación, formación y preparación de la siguiente temporada.

El peso económico del sector explica esta actividad durante todo el año. El estudio presentado por Balearic Marine Cluster contabilizó 879 empresas náuticas, una facturación superior a 1.100 millones de euros y más de 5.000 empleos en Baleares. Palma no es únicamente una escala de verano: es un centro profesional internacional para la reparación, la gestión y la operación de embarcaciones.

Para quienes buscan winter refit accommodation in Mallorca, el Hotel Amic Horizonte aporta varias ventajas:

Apertura durante todo el año.
Cercanía al Club de Mar, al Puerto de Palma y al Paseo Marítimo.
Oferta específica de larga estancia, según disponibilidad y condiciones vigentes.
Desayuno y opciones de restauración en el propio hotel.
Lavadora y secadora autoservicio.
Wi-Fi y espacios para trabajar.
Salas para reuniones, briefings, entrevistas o formación.
Buena conexión con el aeropuerto y la vía de cintura.
Centro Comercial Porto Pi y servicios cotidianos en el entorno.
Gimnasio, masajes bajo reserva y espacios para desconectar después del trabajo.

Esta combinación permite que técnicos, responsables de proyecto, tripulantes y proveedores utilicen el hotel como una verdadera shore base in Palma: una base en tierra cercana al barco, pero preparada también para trabajar, reunirse y descansar.

Pre-charter y post-charter: empezar y terminar el viaje con tranquilidad

Una experiencia de yacht charter en Mallorca no comienza exactamente cuando el barco abandona el puerto. Empieza con la llegada a Palma, la preparación del equipaje, el encuentro con el capitán o el broker y la tranquilidad de saber que todo está organizado. Tampoco termina necesariamente al desembarcar: muchos viajeros prefieren dormir una noche en tierra, descansar, disfrutar de Palma y volar al día siguiente sin prisas.

El Hotel Amic Horizonte es una opción natural para estas estancias previas y posteriores al alquiler de un yate:

Antes de embarcar

El huésped puede llegar el día anterior, dejar el equipaje, descansar, desayunar con vistas a la bahía y desplazarse al Club de Mar cuando la embarcación esté preparada. Si el resto del grupo llega en horarios diferentes, el hotel funciona como punto de encuentro.

Después de desembarcar

Tras varios días navegando, una habitación cómoda, una ducha tranquila, una terraza, un masaje bajo reserva o una cena en Palma pueden prolongar la experiencia sin la presión de enlazar inmediatamente con el aeropuerto.

Para acompañantes

Mientras el propietario, capitán o cliente se reúne con la empresa de charter, otros integrantes del grupo pueden disfrutar de la piscina en temporada, del centro comercial Porto Pi, del Paseo Marítimo, de Cala Major o del centro histórico de Palma.

La idea es sencilla: el charter se vive en el mar, pero una buena estancia en Palma puede mejorar todo lo que sucede antes y después.

Un punto de apoyo para yacht charter companies, brokers y empresas náuticas

Las empresas náuticas no necesitan únicamente habitaciones. Necesitan rapidez de respuesta, una comunicación clara y la posibilidad de centralizar diferentes servicios en un mismo lugar.

Con 199 habitaciones y espacios para reuniones, el Hotel Amic Horizonte puede alojar tanto a un profesional individual como a un equipo, un grupo de invitados o los participantes de un evento. Sus salas de reuniones en Palma cuentan con luz natural, Wi-Fi y configuraciones adaptables para presentaciones, entrevistas, jornadas técnicas o briefings.

El hotel puede resultar útil para:

Yacht charter companies que alojan a clientes antes o después del embarque.
Brokers que reciben compradores, propietarios o invitados en Palma.
Empresas de yacht management con personal desplazado.
Crew agencies que organizan entrevistas y cambios de tripulación.
Empresas de refit, ingeniería, limpieza y mantenimiento.
Organizadores de regatas y acontecimientos náuticos.
Marcas que realizan presentaciones o reuniones junto al puerto.
Proveedores que visitan varias embarcaciones durante una estancia en Mallorca.

Además, la ubicación permite unir alojamiento y reunión sin alejar a los asistentes del entorno náutico. Un desayuno de trabajo, una presentación, una entrevista o una cena de equipo pueden celebrarse con el Puerto de Palma como telón de fondo.

Habitaciones con vistas al mismo mundo náutico que trae al huésped a Palma

La ubicación del Hotel Amic Horizonte no solo facilita los desplazamientos. También aporta contexto y emoción a la estancia. Muchas de sus habitaciones, terrazas y zonas comunes ofrecen vistas al Puerto y a la bahía de Palma.

El hotel dispone de habitaciones individuales, dobles, superiores, premium y suites. Esta variedad permite alojar perfiles diferentes dentro de un mismo grupo: desde un tripulante que necesita una habitación funcional hasta un propietario, artista, invitado o cliente de charter que busca más espacio, terraza o una experiencia especial.

Las habitaciones y suites con vistas a la bahía son especialmente atractivas para quienes desean que su estancia mantenga una conexión permanente con el Mediterráneo. No es lo mismo dormir cerca del puerto que despertar contemplándolo.

En el PanorAmic Bar, en las terrazas o durante el desayuno, la bahía continúa presente. El huésped puede observar los barcos, el perfil de Palma y el movimiento del puerto mientras prepara la jornada o descansa después de ella.

Reuniones, briefings y bleisure junto al Puerto de Palma

El mundo del yachting mezcla con frecuencia trabajo y viaje. Una persona puede desplazarse a Palma para asistir a una reunión, visitar un yate, participar en una inspección o coordinar un proyecto, y aprovechar después para cenar, caminar junto al mar o descubrir la ciudad.

Ese equilibrio entre business y leisure —bleisure— forma parte natural de la propuesta del Hotel Amic Horizonte. La jornada profesional puede empezar con un desayuno mirando al puerto, continuar con una reunión en el hotel o en el Club de Mar y terminar con una cena frente al mar, una copa en el Paseo Marítimo o un paseo por el centro histórico.

Para equipos y empresas, disponer de alojamiento, restauración y espacios profesionales en una misma dirección reduce desplazamientos y simplifica la coordinación. Para el viajero individual, permite convertir una visita de trabajo en una experiencia mucho más completa de Palma.

Reservar directamente: una ventaja especialmente importante para el sector náutico

En una estancia convencional, una reserva puede limitarse a elegir fechas y habitación. En el sector náutico, casi siempre hay más información relevante: horario estimado de llegada, nombre de la embarcación, empresa responsable, posibilidad de prolongación, habitaciones para varios miembros del equipo, facturación o necesidad de una sala.

Por eso, reservar en la web oficial de Amic Hotels o contactar directamente con el hotel ofrece ventajas importantes:

Acceso a las condiciones y ofertas directas vigentes.
Comunicación sin intermediarios.
Posibilidad de explicar cambios de staff o necesidades del grupo.
Información directa sobre habitaciones, vistas y disponibilidad.
Consulta de propuestas para empresas, equipos y larga estancia.
Coordinación de reuniones, restauración o servicios adicionales.
Un único interlocutor para alojamiento y necesidades complementarias.

La reserva anticipada es recomendable durante regatas, congresos, ferias náuticas y los periodos de mayor actividad en Palma. Para estancias profesionales o cambios de tripulación, el contacto directo también permite reaccionar mejor cuando las fechas todavía dependen de la operativa del barco.

Las condiciones concretas, ventajas, tarifas y servicios están siempre sujetos a disponibilidad y deben confirmarse en el momento de reservar.

Del nuevo Club de Mar al nuevo Paseo Marítimo: gastronomía, ocio y glamour a pocos minutos

La transformación del Club de Mar coincide con una nueva etapa del frente marítimo de Palma. Las pasarelas peatonales han abierto el club a la ciudad y su nueva oferta comercial y gastronómica amplía las posibilidades para huéspedes, tripulaciones, empresas e invitados.

Mar Salada, situado en el ático del Club de Mar, propone producto del mar, lonja, ceviches, marisco y carnes a la brasa en una terraza mirando al Puerto de Palma. Cuando cae la noche, la música toma el relevo. Es una dirección especialmente coherente para completar una estancia vinculada al mundo náutico: mar, fuego, sal y vistas al puerto.

La oferta del Club incluye también nuevos espacios de restauración y áreas comerciales, reforzando su vocación de convertirse en un lugar de encuentro que va mucho más allá de los amarres.

En el cercano Paseo Marítimo, FITZ Mallorca abrió en julio de 2026 en uno de los edificios más reconocibles de la noche palmesana, el que durante décadas albergó Tito's y posteriormente Lío. Social Club Mallorca también ha iniciado una nueva etapa en 2026 con un concepto renovado de club, música y vida social junto a la marina.

A estas aperturas se suma la expectación por nuevos proyectos gastronómicos anunciados para la zona del antiguo Pachá, entre ellos la posible llegada futura de ROKA a Palma. Hasta que exista confirmación oficial definitiva de apertura, conviene consultar directamente con la marca; actualmente, la dirección oficial activa de ROKA Mallorca sigue siendo su propuesta estacional en Cap Vermell Grand Hotel, en Canyamel.

Este cambio eleva el atractivo de todo el entorno de Portopí, Club de Mar, La Bonanova y Paseo Marítimo. El glamour ya no depende de un único local o edificio. Surge de la suma de marina, grandes yates, gastronomía, música, arquitectura, vistas y una ciudad que vuelve a acercarse al mar.

Y en medio de ese nuevo mapa, el Hotel Amic Horizonte ofrece algo muy valioso: dormir por encima de la bahía y estar a pocos minutos de todo.

Regatas y eventos náuticos cerca del Hotel Amic Horizonte

El Club de Mar mantiene una intensa relación con la vela, las regatas y los grandes eventos. Entre sus citas más representativas se encuentra la Regata Illes Balears Clàssics, que reúne en Palma embarcaciones históricas y convierte la bahía en un escenario internacional de patrimonio marítimo.

El club acoge también campeonatos, actividades deportivas, encuentros de socios, eventos profesionales y citas para tripulaciones como la Crew Dock Party. Estas celebraciones atraen a participantes, organizadores, patrocinadores, técnicos, familiares, prensa e invitados que necesitan alojamiento cerca del puerto.

Para una regata o un evento en el Club de Mar, el Hotel Amic Horizonte puede ser especialmente interesante por tres motivos:

La proximidad al Muelle de Pelaires y al Puerto de Palma.
La capacidad para alojar a equipos, participantes e invitados en un mismo hotel.
La posibilidad de complementar el alojamiento con desayuno, restauración y salas para reuniones o presentaciones.

Reservar con antelación es aconsejable, especialmente en fechas que coinciden con grandes acontecimientos deportivos, congresos o picos de demanda en Palma.

Qué hacer cerca del Club de Mar y del Hotel Amic Horizonte

La ubicación permite combinar trabajo náutico, vida urbana y descanso sin realizar largos desplazamientos.

Puerto de Palma y Paseo Marítimo

El gran eje para caminar, correr, desplazarse en bicicleta o contemplar la bahía. Conecta marinas, restaurantes, terrazas y algunos de los espacios de ocio más conocidos de la ciudad.

Porto Pi

El centro comercial y su entorno ofrecen tiendas, supermercado, restauración y servicios útiles para una estancia corta o prolongada, especialmente para tripulantes que necesitan resolver compras cotidianas.

Club de Mar-Mallorca

Además de la actividad portuaria, el nuevo club incorpora restauración, comercio, deporte y eventos, con una conexión peatonal más abierta hacia Palma.

Castillo de Bellver y La Bonanova

Muy cerca del hotel, el Castillo de Bellver y su bosque permiten descubrir una de las vistas históricas más singulares de Palma y disfrutar de un espacio verde próximo a la ciudad.

Cala Major y Marivent

La playa de Cala Major, la Fundació Miró Mallorca y el entorno de Marivent amplían las posibilidades culturales y de ocio hacia el oeste.

Centro histórico de Palma

La Catedral de Mallorca, La Lonja, el Paseo del Born, Santa Catalina y el casco antiguo quedan bien conectados para una tarde libre, una cena o una extensión turística del viaje.

Una propuesta de 24 horas para clientes de charter o profesionales náuticos

Llegar a Palma por la tarde, instalarse en una habitación con vistas y contemplar desde el hotel el puerto en el que empezará la experiencia. Bajar al Club de Mar para reunirse con el broker, el capitán o el equipo. Cenar frente al puerto en Mar Salada o descubrir la oferta del nuevo Paseo Marítimo. Volver al Horizonte para descansar.

A la mañana siguiente, desayunar mirando la bahía, revisar los últimos detalles y desplazarse en pocos minutos a la embarcación.

Para quien acaba de desembarcar, el recorrido funciona a la inversa: dejar atrás el ritmo del barco, recuperar tiempo en tierra, disfrutar de Palma y descansar antes del vuelo.

Esa continuidad entre mar y ciudad es una de las grandes fortalezas del Hotel Amic Horizonte.

Auditorium de Palma y Hotel Amic Horizonte: la escapada cultural con vistas a la bahía

2026-08-08T15:19:09.669+02:00

Auditorium de Palma y Hotel Amic Horizonte: dos iconos, una escapada cultural frente al Mediterráneo

Hay noches en las que uno no quiere limitarse a asistir a un espectáculo. Quiere convertirlo en un recuerdo.

Comprar las entradas, viajar a Palma, contemplar la bahía desde la habitación, cenar sin prisas, sentir cómo se acerca la hora de la función y regresar después al hotel con la música, la historia o los aplausos todavía en la cabeza. Esa es la diferencia entre ver un espectáculo y vivir una verdadera escapada cultural en Mallorca.

En el Paseo Marítimo de Palma existe una conexión casi natural entre dos edificios que forman parte del paisaje emocional de la ciudad: el Auditorium de Palma, gran escenario de las artes escénicas y los congresos de Mallorca desde 1969, y el Hotel Amic Horizonte, la ventana elevada sobre el puerto y la bahía de Palma.

Los separan apenas unos minutos. Los une el Mediterráneo.

El Auditorium levanta el telón; el Horizonte prolonga la experiencia.

El Auditorium de Palma: más de medio siglo de cultura junto al mar

Situado en la Avinguda de Gabriel Roca, 18, en pleno Paseo Marítimo de Palma de Mallorca, el Auditorium de Palma es mucho más que un teatro. Es un centro de artes escénicas, espectáculos, congresos y convenciones que forma parte de la historia moderna de la capital balear.

Construido en 1969, fue el primer edificio de estas características levantado en España. Su superficie alcanza los 11.000 metros cuadrados y cuenta con nueve salas, entre ellas sus dos espacios teatrales más reconocibles:

La Sala Magna, con 1.739 localidades, preparada para grandes conciertos, ballets, musicales, espectáculos de magia, teatro, danza, conferencias y producciones de gran formato.
La Sala Mozart, con 306 localidades, perfecta para representaciones más íntimas, comedia, música de cámara, monólogos, presentaciones y encuentros de menor aforo.

Su ubicación, frente a la bahía de Palma, explica buena parte de su personalidad. Pocos teatros permiten combinar con tanta facilidad un espectáculo internacional, un paseo junto al Mediterráneo, una cena en Palma y una estancia con vistas al puerto.

Por eso, cuando alguien busca qué hacer en Palma de Mallorca, planes culturales en Mallorca, teatro en Palma, conciertos en Mallorca, ballet en Palma o eventos en el Paseo Marítimo, el Auditorium aparece como una de las referencias imprescindibles de la ciudad.

Puedes consultar la cartelera y comprar las entradas en la web oficial del Auditorium de Palma.

Hotel Amic Horizonte: un hotel cerca del Auditorium de Palma

El Hotel Amic Horizonte, situado en Carrer de Vista Alegre, 1, en La Bonanova, se encuentra a aproximadamente cinco minutos en coche del Auditorium de Palma, según las condiciones del tráfico. La cercanía permite llegar cómodamente al espectáculo y regresar al hotel al terminar, sin convertir la noche en una carrera ni depender de un desplazamiento largo hasta otra zona de Mallorca.

Pero la distancia no es la única razón para elegirlo.

Desde su posición elevada, el Hotel Amic Horizonte ofrece una de las perspectivas más singulares de Palma: el puerto, los cruceros, los ferris, los veleros, la bahía, parte del Paseo Marítimo y, al fondo, la silueta de la Catedral de Mallorca. Esa vista transforma la estancia en parte del viaje cultural.

El hotel está también bien situado para descubrir otros puntos de interés de Palma, como Porto Pi, el Puerto de Palma, la Estación Marítima, el Castell de Bellver, la Fundació Miró Mallorca, el barrio de Santa Catalina, Es Baluard, La Lonja, el Paseo del Borne, el Palau de l’Almudaina y la Catedral de Mallorca.

Quien viene a Palma para una función no tiene que elegir entre cultura y ciudad. Desde el Horizonte puede disfrutar de ambas.

Dos edificios icónicos unidos por el Paseo Marítimo de Palma

El Auditorium y el Hotel Amic Horizonte representan dos formas complementarias de contemplar Palma.

Desde el patio de butacas, la ciudad se escucha, baila, interpreta y emociona. Desde las terrazas y habitaciones del Horizonte, Palma se observa: el movimiento de los barcos, las luces del puerto, el cielo sobre la bahía y el amanecer entrando por el Mediterráneo.

Uno es escenario. El otro, mirador.

Uno guarda décadas de aplausos. El otro, miles de amaneceres.

Entre ambos se dibuja una de las mejores propuestas para una escapada cultural a Palma de Mallorca: elegir primero el espectáculo, reservar después la habitación y convertir una noche especial en un viaje de dos o tres días.

Ballet, música de cine, danza urbana, magia y grandes clásicos

La programación del Auditorium de Palma permite diseñar escapadas culturales durante prácticamente todo el año. Su cartel combina grandes clásicos con propuestas contemporáneas y espectáculos para públicos muy diferentes.

El Lago de los Cisnes y los grandes ballets

Pocas obras justifican tanto una escapada como El Lago de los Cisnes. La música de Chaikovski, la precisión del cuerpo de baile y la emoción de una de las grandes historias del repertorio clásico convierten cada representación en una cita especial.

El ballet, la danza contemporánea y los grandes ciclos coreográficos encuentran en la Sala Magna un escenario a su altura. Para parejas, familias, escuelas de danza y amantes de las artes escénicas, reservar una noche en Palma alrededor de una función es una forma diferente de descubrir Mallorca más allá del sol y la playa.

Film Symphony Orchestra: el cine se escucha en Palma

La Film Symphony Orchestra (FSO) se ha convertido en una de las citas más esperadas por quienes aman las grandes bandas sonoras. Escuchar en directo la música de películas y universos cinematográficos, interpretada por una formación sinfónica, transforma el Auditorium en una gran sala de cine para los oídos.

FSO es además un ejemplo perfecto de evento que invita a planificar con antelación. Sus conciertos suelen despertar un enorme interés y convierten Palma en punto de encuentro para espectadores llegados desde diferentes municipios de Mallorca —Calvià, Llucmajor, Marratxí, Inca, Alcúdia, Manacor o Sóller— y también desde la Península y otros países europeos.

La programación oficial incluye para el 13 de marzo de 2027 dos propuestas de Film Symphony Orchestra en la Sala Magna: Odisea y La música de las galaxias. Las fechas y la disponibilidad pueden cambiar, por lo que siempre recomendamos confirmar la información y adquirir las entradas en el canal oficial del Auditorium.

MOD Mallorca: Palma se convierte en capital europea de la danza urbana

Cada mes de julio, MOD Mallorca —Masters of Dance— llena el Auditorium de energía, talento y cultura urbana. El Hotel Amic Horizonte no se limita a observar esta cita: es impulsor y prescriptor del evento, recomienda su asistencia y entiende el enorme valor que aporta a Palma y a Mallorca.

La décima edición, celebrada en 2026, reunió a más de 1.800 bailarines de todas las edades, con crews de hip hop procedentes de 12 países y competiciones en las categorías Rookie y Master. Durante ese fin de semana, el Paseo Marítimo se llena de jóvenes, familias, entrenadores, coreógrafos y equipos que comparten una misma pasión.

MOD demuestra que la cultura de Mallorca también se escribe en presente: con danza urbana, diversidad, esfuerzo, comunidad y nuevas generaciones subiendo a uno de los escenarios más importantes de la isla.

Para grupos de baile, academias y acompañantes, alojarse cerca del Auditorium reduce desplazamientos y facilita la logística de habitaciones, desayunos, horarios, equipaje y traslados. El Hotel Amic Horizonte dispone de experiencia recibiendo grupos y participantes vinculados a eventos culturales y deportivos.

Magia, teatro, musicales, humor y planes en familia

La cartelera del Auditorium permite pasar de un gran ilusionista como Jorge Blass a una comedia, de un musical infantil a un concierto de jazz, de una conferencia a una producción teatral o de un espectáculo tributo a una gran cita sinfónica.

Eso convierte el plan en una opción para muchos tipos de viajeros:

Parejas que buscan un fin de semana cultural y romántico en Palma.
Familias que quieren combinar un musical o un espectáculo de magia con piscina, paseo y actividades en la ciudad.
Amantes de la música clásica, el ballet, el jazz, el pop y las bandas sonoras.
Escuelas de danza, coros, agrupaciones musicales y colectivos culturales.
Empresas, ponentes y asistentes a congresos o convenciones.
Residentes de otros puntos de Mallorca que desean disfrutar de la noche sin tener que conducir de regreso después de la función.

Un hotel elegido también por artistas y equipos de producción

El Hotel Amic Horizonte es también uno de los alojamientos elegidos por artistas, bailarines, músicos, compañías y profesionales vinculados a distintos eventos celebrados en Palma.

Para quien vive de escenario en escenario, un hotel no es únicamente una cama. Es el lugar en el que descansar después de una función, preparar el día siguiente, mantener la privacidad, reunir al equipo o desayunar contemplando el mar antes de volver a ensayar.

La combinación de cercanía al Auditorium, buena conexión con el puerto y el centro de Palma, variedad de habitaciones, espacios comunes, restauración, piscina panorámica y experiencia con grupos hace del Horizonte una opción especialmente práctica para compañías, producciones, artistas y crews.

Y existe algo más difícil de medir, pero muy fácil de sentir: la hospitalidad cercana de un AMIC. La atención de un hotel de Palma que conoce el destino, recomienda sus eventos y entiende que detrás de cada función hay muchas horas de trabajo que el público nunca ve.

Auditorium de Palma para congresos y Hotel Amic Horizonte para alojamientos MICE

El Auditorium no es únicamente uno de los principales espacios de espectáculos de Mallorca. Es también un palacio de congresos y convenciones con nueve salas, capacidad técnica y espacios preparados para congresos, incentivos, reuniones profesionales, presentaciones y eventos corporativos.

La proximidad del Hotel Amic Horizonte permite crear una combinación muy útil para el turismo MICE en Palma:

Grandes sesiones, ponencias o actos principales en el Auditorium.
Alojamiento de asistentes, ponentes, organizadores y equipos en el Hotel Amic Horizonte.
Reuniones paralelas, encuentros de trabajo o actividades de grupo en los espacios del hotel.
Desayunos, pausas, comidas, cenas y momentos informales con vistas a la bahía de Palma.
Posibilidad de combinar trabajo y ocio en una propuesta de bleisure junto al Mediterráneo.

Para empresas y agencias, esta cercanía simplifica la organización y permite que los participantes vivan Palma sin alejarse del eje formado por La Bonanova, Porto Pi, el Puerto de Palma, el Paseo Marítimo y el centro urbano.

Por qué comprar las entradas y reservar el hotel con antelación

Los grandes espectáculos tienen una fecha concreta y un número limitado de localidades. Algunas funciones pueden agotar las mejores zonas o incluso todas las entradas. Del mismo modo, la disponibilidad y los precios del alojamiento varían según la temporada, los congresos, los puentes, las conexiones aéreas y la agenda cultural de Palma.

La recomendación es sencilla:

Consulta la programación oficial del Auditorium de Palma.
Compra las entradas en el canal oficial y revisa sus condiciones.
Reserva tu habitación en la web oficial de Amic Hotels.
Comunica al hotel cualquier necesidad especial o consulta relacionada con la estancia.

Una escapada cultural de 48 horas en Palma de Mallorca

Día 1: llegada, bahía y noche de espectáculo

Después de llegar al Aeropuerto de Palma de Mallorca o al Puerto de Palma, instalaos en el Hotel Amic Horizonte y dedicad unos minutos a contemplar la bahía. Si la función es por la noche, podéis pasear por Porto Pi o el Paseo Marítimo, tomar algo y desplazaros con tiempo hasta el Auditorium.

Después del espectáculo, regresad al hotel. La noche no tiene por qué terminar al caer el telón: puede continuar con una conversación tranquila, una última mirada al puerto iluminado y la sensación de haber vivido algo especial.

Día 2: desayuno con vistas y Palma cultural

El segundo día puede comenzar con un desayuno mirando hacia el Mediterráneo. Desde La Bonanova es fácil organizar una ruta por el Castell de Bellver y la Fundació Miró o bajar hacia Santa Catalina, Es Baluard y La Lonja hasta llegar al casco histórico de Palma.

La ruta puede continuar por el Paseo del Borne, el Palau de l’Almudaina, el Parc de la Mar y la Catedral de Mallorca. Así, la experiencia reúne artes escénicas, arquitectura, historia, gastronomía y paisaje en un mismo viaje.

Día 3 opcional: otra forma de mirar la bahía

Si la estancia se prolonga, el tercer día puede dedicarse a la piscina panorámica del hotel, una visita a las galerías y museos de Palma, una excursión a otro punto de Mallorca o simplemente a descansar antes de regresar.

Porque una escapada cultural también necesita tiempo para respirar.

Copa del Rey MAPFRE 2026 in Palma: The Event of Events on Palma Bay - LIVE -

2026-07-16T17:32:59.714+02:00

Palma Bay Takes the World Stage: Why the Copa del Rey MAPFRE 2026 Is Mallorca’s Event of Events

For one extraordinary week every summer, the Bay of Palma stops being simply one of the Mediterranean’s most beautiful natural settings.

It becomes a global stadium.

From 1 to 8 August 2026, with racing scheduled from 4 to 8 August, the 44th Copa del Rey MAPFRE will bring more than 100 teams, over 20 nationalities and six highly competitive sailing classes to Palma de Mallorca. Three of the four reigning ORC world champions are expected to compete, turning the regatta into something close to a world championship rematch on the waters of Mallorca.

But the Copa del Rey MAPFRE is much more than a sailing competition.

It is the event that connects elite sport, yacht owners, professional crews, international businesses, hospitality, gastronomy, luxury tourism, Mediterranean lifestyle, royal tradition and Palma’s renewed relationship with the sea.

It is, quite simply, the event of events in Palma de Mallorca.

When the Bay of Palma becomes the centre of world sailing

There are sporting venues that need grandstands, floodlights and enormous concrete structures.

Palma already has everything it needs.

Its stadium is the Mediterranean. Its grandstand is the coastline. Its skyline combines the Cathedral of Mallorca, the Royal Palace of La Almudaina, Bellver Castle, the Port of Palma and the mountains surrounding the bay.

During the Copa del Rey MAPFRE, this entire landscape becomes part of the competition.

Racing yachts leave the Real Club Náutico de Palma as professional crews prepare to read every change in wind, pressure and sea conditions. Technical teams work on the docks. Owners, sponsors and guests arrive from across Europe and the world. Journalists, photographers and sailing enthusiasts follow the racing from the water and the city.

From the Port of Palma and the Paseo Marítimo to Porto Pi, Bonanova, Club de Mar, La Lonja and Palma’s historic centre, the atmosphere changes.

The bay is no longer the background.

The Bay of Palma becomes the main stage.

Copa del Rey MAPFRE 2026: the figures behind the event

The scale of the 2026 Copa del Rey MAPFRE explains why it has become one of the major international dates on the Mediterranean sailing calendar.

The 44th edition has already surpassed 100 registered teams representing more than 20 countries. Six classes will compete, and the presence of three recently crowned ORC world champions confirms the sporting quality expected in Palma.

Behind every yacht there is also an extensive professional ecosystem.

There are owners, skippers, tacticians, navigators and sailors, but also coaches, sailmakers, engineers, designers, meteorologists, shore crews, maintenance specialists, photographers, media teams, sponsors, agencies, event organisers and hospitality professionals.

Every boat arriving in Palma creates activity on land.

Hotel rooms are occupied. Restaurants receive groups. Transfers are organised. Equipment is transported. Marina services intensify. Private events are held. Terraces fill at sunset. Business relationships are developed around breakfasts, lunches, cocktails and dinners.

The economic influence therefore extends far beyond the Real Club Náutico de Palma.

A previous study cited by the Real Club Náutico calculated an economic impact of more than €17.49 million for the 37th edition of the regatta. That figure belongs to an earlier edition and should not be interpreted as a forecast for 2026, but it demonstrates the capacity of the Copa del Rey to generate substantial activity throughout Mallorca.

Its influence reaches hotels, restaurants, transport companies, marinas, yacht services, retail businesses, nightlife venues, event suppliers, local producers and the wider tourism economy.

The Copa del Rey does not merely attract visitors.

It activates Palma.

Yacht owners, professional crews and an international community

The Copa del Rey MAPFRE brings together very different worlds around the same bay.

There are owners who have invested years in building competitive sailing projects. There are professional sailors with Olympic, world championship and ocean-racing experience. There are family teams, established Mediterranean programmes and ambitious crews arriving in Palma to measure themselves against the best.

For yacht owners, the event represents competition, prestige and belonging.

For professional teams, it is one of the great tests of the season.

For sponsors, it offers international visibility and access to an audience connected with sport, innovation, travel, technology and premium experiences.

For Palma, it is an opportunity to present itself as something much greater than a holiday destination.

Palma is a nautical capital capable of hosting world-class sport while offering an international airport, a historic city, a sophisticated hospitality sector, high-quality gastronomy, professional maritime services and an exceptional Mediterranean lifestyle.

That combination is extremely difficult to reproduce elsewhere.

Teams can compete at the highest level during the day and, only a few hours later, enjoy dinner overlooking the marina, a cocktail on a hotel terrace, live music beside the sea or a walk through Palma’s old town.

This is one of the reasons why the Copa del Rey is not only respected.

It is loved.

A regatta with a unique connection to the Spanish Royal Family

The relationship between the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Royal Family is not simply ceremonial.

It is part of the identity and history of the event.

King Felipe VI has maintained a long personal relationship with competitive sailing and the regatta. In 2025, he returned aboard the Spanish Navy yacht Aifos for what was reported as his 39th participation, continuing a sporting connection that began in 1984.

For the 2026 edition, the official prize-giving ceremony is scheduled for 8 August at the Royal Palace of La Almudaina, with King Felipe VI expected to preside over the event.

This relationship gives the Copa del Rey a distinctive character.

Royal involvement reinforces the prestige of the competition, but it also reflects something deeper: a genuine connection between the Spanish Crown, sailing, the Navy, Mallorca and the Bay of Palma.

The image of the King connected to the regatta, the yachts returning to the harbour and the winners receiving their trophies at La Almudaina creates a combination of sport, history and institutional significance found at very few sailing events in the world.

The setting could not be more symbolic.

On one side, the Mediterranean.

On the other, Palma Cathedral and the historic royal palace.

Between them, the best teams of the regatta.

The competition continues after the boats return

The Copa del Rey is decided on the water, but its energy continues throughout the city after racing.

The 2026 programme includes five major social events across eight days. The agenda features an official presentation, a welcome cocktail for yacht owners, sponsors, guests and media, the traditional White Cocktail beside the terrace and pool of the Real Club Náutico de Palma, and the closing prize-giving ceremony at La Almudaina.

These official celebrations are only one part of the experience.

Across Palma, hotels, restaurants, beach clubs, marinas, rooftops and terraces prepare for one of the most socially active weeks of the summer.

Breakfast meetings become business opportunities. Afternoon drinks become team celebrations. Rooftop gatherings overlook a bay filled with yachts. Restaurants welcome international crews, sponsors and guests. Sunset cocktails lead into dinners and nights beside the Mediterranean.

The Copa del Rey creates a natural meeting point between the sailing world and the city.

It allows Palma to demonstrate that it can organise an elite sporting event without losing its personality.

The atmosphere remains Mediterranean: open, social, elegant and close to the sea.

A new Paseo Marítimo for a new era in Palma

The 2026 Copa del Rey arrives at a particularly important moment for the city.

Palma’s seafront has undergone one of the most significant urban transformations of recent decades. The renewed Paseo Marítimo has converted a 3.5-kilometre waterfront axis into a greener, more accessible corridor with additional pedestrian areas, cycling infrastructure, landscaping and improved connections between the city and the port.

The project received the 2026 FAD Public Opinion Award for City and Landscape, recognising its contribution to public space, accessibility, sustainable mobility and the integration of Palma with its maritime façade.

This transformation changes how residents and visitors experience the Copa del Rey.

The harbour is no longer something to observe only from a car. The renewed waterfront encourages people to walk, cycle, meet, exercise, enjoy a terrace and reconnect with the Mediterranean.

During regatta week, the Paseo Marítimo becomes the natural link between the Real Club Náutico, Club de Mar, the Port of Palma, the city’s restaurants, hotels and nightlife.

Palma’s evening scene is also entering a new chapter. Fitz Mallorca is scheduled to open in July 2026 in the legendary Paseo Marítimo building previously associated with Tito’s and Lío, while Social Club Mallorca has also announced a new venue for the summer season.

The result is a renewed maritime district prepared to receive sailors, owners, visitors and residents during one of the most important weeks of the year.

New public spaces. New restaurants. New entertainment concepts. New terraces. New nightlife.

And the same extraordinary bay.

Hotels in Palma prepare for one of the busiest weeks of the summer

The Copa del Rey MAPFRE is held during the first week of August, already one of the periods of highest demand in Mallorca.

The arrival of more than 100 teams from over 20 countries adds professional sailors, technical personnel, yacht owners, sponsors, families, media representatives and sailing enthusiasts to an island operating at the height of the summer season.

Accommodation demand is therefore not limited to the competing crews.

Guests also travel to Palma for corporate hospitality, private events, sponsor activations, meetings, networking and holidays organised around the regatta.

Hotels close to the Port of Palma, Paseo Marítimo, Real Club Náutico, Club de Mar, Porto Pi and Bonanova are particularly well positioned.

Location matters during Copa del Rey week.

Guests need practical access to the harbour, but they also want a swimming pool, terraces, breakfast, restaurants, nightlife and a comfortable place to relax after a long day on the water.

For this reason, booking accommodation well in advance is strongly recommended.

Waiting until the final days can mean reduced availability, fewer room categories and significantly less flexibility.

Hotel Amic Horizonte: The Window of Palma Bay

There are hotels near the sea.

And then there are hotels from which the sea explains the entire destination.

Located in an elevated position near the Port of Palma, Porto Pi and the Paseo Marítimo, Hotel Amic Horizonte looks directly across the bay. Its panoramic terraces, rooms, restaurant, swimming pool and bars offer views over the harbour, Palma Cathedral, Bellver Castle and the maritime skyline of the city. The hotel is approximately two kilometres from central Palma and within walking distance of the waterfront area.

During the Copa del Rey, this position becomes especially meaningful.

From the hotel, guests can watch the harbour awaken, see yachts and support vessels moving through the bay, follow the changing light over Palma and experience the atmosphere surrounding the regatta.

The exact racing areas can vary according to the programme and weather conditions, so uninterrupted views of every race cannot be guaranteed. What the hotel does offer is something broader: a privileged perspective over the maritime life of Palma throughout the entire event.

Morning begins with breakfast overlooking the bay.

The afternoon can continue beside the panoramic swimming pool.

Sunset arrives with cocktails, music and the lights of the port appearing below.

At night, guests remain close to the Paseo Marítimo, Club de Mar, Porto Pi and Palma’s principal entertainment areas.

Hotel Amic Horizonte is not simply accommodation for Copa del Rey week.

It is The Window of Palma: a place from which the destination, the port and the bay can be understood at a single glance.

Its live webcam also allows the international community to follow the Bay of Palma in real time, observing its sunrises, sunsets, cruise ships, yachts and changing Mediterranean landscape.

Experiencing Copa del Rey week from Hotel Amic Horizonte

A stay during the regatta can combine several different versions of Palma in the same day.

Guests can begin with breakfast and panoramic views of the port before travelling to the Real Club Náutico or attending professional meetings.

They can return for time beside the pool, enjoy a light meal or prepare for an evening event.

At sunset, the terraces become a natural place to follow the atmosphere of the bay before continuing towards the renewed Paseo Marítimo, Club de Mar, Santa Catalina, La Lonja or Palma’s historic centre.

This combination makes the hotel especially suitable for:

Sailing teams and technical personnel.
Yacht owners and guests.
Sponsors and corporate groups.
Journalists and content creators.
Couples visiting Palma during the regatta.
International travellers looking for accommodation near the port.
Guests attending social events connected with the Copa del Rey.

The essential advantage is not just proximity.

It is perspective.

From Hotel Amic Horizonte, visitors do not only stay in Palma.

They wake up looking at the reason they came.

Why accommodation should be booked in advance

The Bay of Palma fills with sails during the Copa del Rey.

The Real Club Náutico fills with teams.

The terraces fill with conversations.

The restaurants fill with groups.

And the hotels fill with people who understand that this is not an ordinary summer week.

The combination of international participation, peak-season tourism, official events and corporate hospitality places significant pressure on accommodation availability across Palma.

Early reservations provide access to a wider choice of rooms, sea-view categories, terraces and suites. They also make it easier to coordinate group accommodation, transfers, meetings and social programmes.

For visitors seeking accommodation near the Port of Palma and the Paseo Marítimo, the recommendation is clear:

Do not wait until the boats are already in the bay.

Book early, prepare your programme and experience the Copa del Rey from the moment Palma begins to wake up.

The week when Palma looks towards the sea

A city that knows how to welcome the world without losing its identity.

A historic capital capable of becoming an elite sporting venue.

A destination where competition and celebration share the same coastline.

A place where yacht owners, sailors, residents and visitors meet beneath the same Mediterranean light.

From the Real Club Náutico to La Almudaina, from the new Paseo Marítimo to the terraces above the port, the entire city becomes part of the regatta.

And overlooking it all stands Hotel Amic Horizonte.

De 2010 a 2026: dos estrellas, un Horizonte y el sueño del Mundial 2030

2026-07-15T20:14:48.461+02:00

De 2010 a 2026: dos estrellas, un Horizonte y el sueño del Mundial 2030

España ha ganado dos Mundiales masculinos de fútbol: el de Sudáfrica 2010 y el de 2026. En el Hotel Amic Horizonte, en Palma de Mallorca, hemos acompañado a la selección, compartido la emoción de sus partidos y celebrado cada estrella. Ahora miramos hacia 2030 con una ilusión muy concreta: vivir juntos la búsqueda de la tercera.

Hay goles que recuerdas por quién los marcó. Otros, por la persona que tenías al lado cuando entraron.

En un hotel pasa algo especial durante un Mundial. Alguien baja a ver el partido aunque pensaba quedarse en la habitación. Un huésped pregunta dónde está la pantalla. Dos personas que no se conocen comentan la primera ocasión y acaban viendo juntas la prórroga. Cuando España juega, trabajadores, viajeros y vecinos de Palma encuentran un motivo para detenerse a compartir noventa minutos.

Eso es lo que el fútbol nos ha regalado en el Horizonte.

2010: la primera estrella

El 11 de julio de 2010, España ganó su primer Mundial masculino frente a Países Bajos. Iniesta marcó en la prórroga y aquella noche pasó a formar parte de la memoria de millones de personas.

También de la nuestra. Quienes trabajábamos en un hotel aquel verano recordamos cómo se vivía cada partido: siguiendo el resultado entre tareas, buscando un momento para mirar la pantalla, escuchando una celebración desde otra sala. Cada persona tenía una responsabilidad, pero todos sabíamos qué estaba ocurriendo.

Desde Palma, aquella victoria se sintió cercana. El Mundial se jugaba lejos; la emoción estaba aquí, entre las conversaciones del hotel y las celebraciones que continuaron por la ciudad.

2026: escribimos el post antes de conocer el final

El 15 de julio de 2026 publicamos una invitación: España iba a jugar la final y queríamos vivirla juntos en el Hotel Amic Horizonte. Preparamos una propuesta para quienes quisieran ver el partido, celebrarlo y quedarse a dormir en Palma.

Cuatro días después llegó la respuesta que todos esperábamos. España venció a Argentina 1-0 en la prórroga y ganó su segundo Mundial masculino. La crónica de la final recoge el gol de Ferran Torres.

El artículo de julio decía: «España puede hacer historia». Hoy podemos escribirlo en pasado. España hizo historia. Y nosotros pudimos volver a compartirla.

Así se vive un Mundial en el Horizonte

Nuestro hotel está en Carrer de Vista Alegre, 1, sobre el Port de Palma, cerca de Porto Pi, Club de Mar, el Paseo Marítimo y El Terreno. Desde las terrazas se ve la bahía; dentro, cuando hay partido, las miradas se dirigen a las pantallas.

El Espacio Horizonte y el Panoramic Bar permiten que huéspedes y visitantes se reúnan para ver fútbol. Durante el Mundial de 2026 anunciamos pantalla gigante y retransmisiones con vistas a la bahía. El ambiente lo puso la gente: aficionados de España, viajeros de otros países, compañeros del hotel y personas de Palma que querían seguir el encuentro acompañadas.

Nos gusta apoyar a la selección. También nos gusta que alguien pueda venir con otra camiseta, disfrutar del partido y sentirse bien recibido. En un hotel internacional, esa mezcla forma parte de la experiencia mundialista.

2030: el Mundial vuelve cerca de casa

España será una de las anfitrionas del Mundial de 2030 junto a Portugal y Marruecos. Después de las estrellas de 2010 y 2026, la selección llegará con la posibilidad de luchar por una tercera. El resultado nadie puede prometerlo. Las ganas de volver a reunirnos, sí.

Desde Mallorca seguiremos el torneo con esa perspectiva tan nuestra: una pantalla, gente alrededor y la bahía de Palma al otro lado de la ventana. Queremos que el Horizonte vuelva a ser un lugar donde ver los partidos de España, traer a los amigos, comentar las jugadas y recordar después con quién celebramos cada gol.

Cuando se conozcan los horarios y tengamos definida la programación del hotel, anunciaremos los partidos y las condiciones de acceso. Hasta entonces, ya podemos empezar la conversación:

¿Dónde viste el gol de Iniesta en 2010? ¿Con quién celebraste la final de 2026? ¿Dónde te gustaría vivir el Mundial de 2030?

Sigue el camino hacia la tercera estrella desde Palma

Si buscas un lugar en Palma de Mallorca para seguir a España en futuros grandes partidos, recuerda esta dirección: Hotel Amic Horizonte, Carrer de Vista Alegre, 1, junto al puerto y por encima del Paseo Marítimo.

Sigue @hotelhorizonte.mallorca para conocer los próximos planes futboleros del hotel. Si organizas un viaje de grupo a Palma alrededor de un partido, puedes escribirnos a grupos@amic-hotels.com y contarnos qué tienes en mente.

2010 nos dio la primera estrella. 2026 nos dio la segunda. En 2030 volveremos a mirar la pantalla juntos desde el Horizonte.

Rooftop DJ Sessions in Palma | Pool, Cocktails and Sunset Views

Rooftop Vibes in Palma: Poolside DJ Sessions, Sunset Cocktails and Mediterranean Views

There are many ways to experience Palma de Mallorca, but few are as memorable as watching the city slowly change colour from a terrace overlooking the Bay of Palma.

The afternoon light softens. The Mediterranean Sea reflects the golden tones of the sky. Music begins to play beside the swimming pool. A cocktail arrives at the table, accompanied by thin slices of Spanish Serrano ham and a chilled glass of sparkling wine.

This is the relaxed rooftop atmosphere of Hotel Amic Horizonte in Palma: an elevated Mediterranean experience where swimming, music, local flavours and panoramic views become part of the same moment.

Located in the Bonanova area of Palma de Mallorca, close to Porto Pi, the Port of Palma, Club de Mar and the city’s renewed seafront promenade, Hotel Amic Horizonte offers one of those places where visitors can stop, look around and enjoy the island without rushing.

It is not simply about going to the swimming pool.

It is about finding your own place above Palma.

Discover the Rooftop Side of Palma de Mallorca

Palma is increasingly becoming a city of terraces, rooftops and open-air experiences.

Beyond its historic streets, Gothic architecture and Mediterranean beaches, the capital of Mallorca has developed a lively rooftop culture. Hotels, restaurants and urban terraces now offer new ways to enjoy the city from above, especially during the warm spring and summer months.

From the rooftops around Palma Old Town to the terraces overlooking the Paseo Marítimo, each area reveals a different side of the Mallorcan capital.

The terrace and swimming pool area at Hotel Amic Horizonte offers something particularly special: an open panoramic perspective over the Port of Palma, the Bay of Palma and the Mediterranean horizon.

From this privileged location in La Bonanova, guests can enjoy views towards:

The Port of Palma de Mallorca
Porto Pi
Club de Mar Mallorca
Palma’s cruise terminal
The Paseo Marítimo
The Mediterranean Sea
The urban skyline of Palma
The hills surrounding Bellver Castle
The wider Bay of Palma

It is a rooftop-style setting with the relaxed personality of a Mediterranean pool terrace.

There is no need for formal plans or complicated schedules. Sometimes the best afternoon in Mallorca begins with a swim, continues with a drink and ends with the colours of sunset over Palma.

Poolside DJ Sessions in Palma

Music changes the atmosphere of a place.

During selected summer sessions, the pool terrace at Hotel Amic Horizonte becomes a relaxed meeting point where DJ music accompanies the afternoon without overwhelming it.

These are not sessions designed around noise, crowds or pressure. The objective is to create the right soundtrack for the Mediterranean surroundings.

Guests can swim, relax on a sunbed, talk with friends, order something from the bar or simply look towards the Bay of Palma while the DJ builds a warm and easy-going musical atmosphere.

The sound moves with the afternoon:

Fresh rhythms beside the swimming pool.

Smooth electronic sounds during the golden hour.

Relaxed beats as the sun begins to fall.

More atmospheric music as Palma’s lights appear in the distance.

The result is a different kind of pool party in Palma: more relaxed, more panoramic and closely connected to the natural rhythm of the day.

At Hotel Amic Horizonte, music is part of the atmosphere, but the real protagonist remains the view.

A Swimming Pool Overlooking the Bay of Palma

A swimming pool in Palma can be much more than a place to cool down.

At Hotel Amic Horizonte, the outdoor pool is located on an elevated terrace with views across one of the most recognisable landscapes in Mallorca.

From the water and surrounding solarium, visitors can observe ferries entering the Port of Palma, sailing boats crossing the bay, cruise ships arriving near Porto Pi and the changing Mediterranean light throughout the day.

In the morning, the atmosphere is fresh and calm.

Around midday, the swimming pool becomes an ideal place to enjoy the Mallorcan sunshine.

During the afternoon, the light begins to transform the entire landscape.

And at sunset, the terrace becomes one of the most atmospheric corners of the hotel.

This is precisely what makes the poolside experience at Hotel Amic Horizonte different. It combines a city location in Palma de Mallorca with the visual sensation of being connected to the sea.

You are close to the shops and restaurants of Porto Pi, the marina at Club de Mar, the bars and nightlife of the Paseo Marítimo and the historic centre of Palma, yet the elevated position creates a feeling of space and escape.

Sunset Cocktails with a View of Palma

There are cocktails, and then there are cocktails enjoyed while the sun sets over the Mediterranean.

The golden hour is one of the best moments to visit the pool terrace at Hotel Amic Horizonte. Temperatures become softer, the sky begins to change and the light creates a completely different view of Palma de Mallorca.

It is the perfect time to discover our selection of cocktails.

A refreshing spritz.

A classic mojito.

A Mediterranean-inspired cocktail.

A chilled glass of sparkling wine.

Or simply your favourite drink served beside the pool.

The experience is not defined by a single recipe. It comes from the combination of the drink, the music, the sea breeze and the view.

Sitting above the Port of Palma while the sky turns from blue to gold, pink and orange is one of those simple Mallorca experiences that visitors remember after returning home.

It is also an excellent plan for couples, groups of friends, hotel guests, local residents and anyone looking for a relaxed sunset atmosphere in Palma.

Serrano Ham, Sparkling Wine and Mediterranean Moments

Good music and panoramic views deserve the right flavours.

One of the best ways to enjoy a poolside DJ session is with a plate of finely sliced Serrano ham and a cold glass of sparkling wine.

Serrano ham is one of Spain’s most recognisable gastronomic products. Simple, intense and made for sharing, it fits naturally into an informal Mediterranean afternoon.

Its savoury flavour pairs beautifully with the freshness and bubbles of a sparkling wine, especially when served outdoors in the Mallorcan sunshine.

Add a selection of cocktails, the sound of a DJ, a swimming pool and a view over the Bay of Palma, and a simple afternoon becomes a complete sensory experience.

This is the spirit we want to create at Hotel Amic Horizonte.

Not a rigid event.

Not an artificial concept.

A natural Palma moment.

A table shared with friends.

Music playing in the background.

A swim when the temperature rises.

A glass raised towards the horizon.

And the city of Palma extending below you.

More Than a Rooftop: The Hotel Amic Horizonte Atmosphere

Hotel Amic Horizonte has always had a close relationship with the landscape of Palma.

Its elevated location makes the horizon part of the hotel’s identity. The sea, the port, the city and the sky can be seen from many of its rooms, terraces and common spaces.

The poolside DJ sessions are therefore not an isolated activity. They form part of the wider atmosphere of the hotel.

The experience connects with:

The swimming pool and solarium
The panoramic terraces
The hotel’s cocktail offering
Mediterranean gastronomy
Music during selected summer afternoons
Views over the Bay of Palma
The cultural and social life of Palma
The relaxed lifestyle of Mallorca

Whether you are staying for a weekend in Palma, enjoying a longer Mallorca holiday, attending a meeting, travelling with a group or simply searching for an original afternoon plan, the hotel offers a place where the city can be experienced differently.

The aim is not to separate accommodation, leisure, gastronomy and entertainment.

The aim is to allow all these elements to come together naturally.

Where Is Hotel Amic Horizonte in Palma?

Hotel Amic Horizonte is located in the La Bonanova area of Palma de Mallorca, on the western side of the city and above the Port of Palma.

Its position is particularly convenient for visitors interested in combining the city, the maritime area and the main transport connections of Mallorca.

The hotel is close to:

Porto Pi Shopping Centre

One of Palma’s best-known shopping centres, with fashion stores, restaurants, a supermarket, cinema and services.

Port of Palma

The main maritime gateway to Mallorca and one of the most active ports in the Balearic Islands.

Club de Mar Mallorca

A prestigious marina and social meeting point located near the Paseo Marítimo.

Palma Cruise Terminal

The area where many international cruise passengers begin their visit to Palma de Mallorca.

Paseo Marítimo de Palma

The city’s seafront promenade, recently transformed into a more pedestrian-friendly area for walking, cycling, dining and enjoying the sea.

Bellver Castle

One of Palma’s most important monuments, surrounded by Mediterranean forest and offering panoramic views across the city and bay.

Palma City Centre

The historic centre, Palma Cathedral, Parc de la Mar, La Lonja, Santa Catalina and the city’s main shopping streets are all within easy reach by taxi, bus, bicycle or car.

This location makes Hotel Amic Horizonte a practical base for discovering Palma while also offering the elevated views associated with some of the city’s most attractive rooftop venues.

The Window of Palma: Watch the Bay Live

The panoramic relationship between Hotel Amic Horizonte and the city can also be experienced online through our Palma webcam.

Known as The Window of Palma, the webcam offers a live view over the Port of Palma, the Bay of Palma and the Mediterranean landscape visible from Hotel Amic Horizonte.

It allows viewers from Mallorca, Spain and around the world to observe the city in real time.

You can check the weather in Palma.

Watch the arrival and departure of cruise ships.

See ferries entering and leaving the port.

Observe the Mediterranean sky.

Follow the changing light over the Bay of Palma.

And enjoy the sunset even when you are far away from Mallorca.

For many regular visitors, the webcam is a way to remain connected to Palma between trips. For future guests, it offers a preview of the views that await them at Hotel Amic Horizonte.

During the poolside DJ sessions, the same landscape visible through The Window of Palma becomes the real background to the experience.

The webcam shows the view.

The hotel terrace allows you to live it.

A Different Afternoon Plan in Palma

What can you do on a summer afternoon in Palma de Mallorca?

You could walk through the Old Town.

Visit Palma Cathedral.

Explore the boutiques and restaurants of Santa Catalina.

Go shopping in Porto Pi.

Walk along the Paseo Marítimo.

Visit Bellver Castle.

Discover the marinas around the Port of Palma.

Or you could choose a slower plan.

Spend time beside a swimming pool.

Listen to good music.

Enjoy a plate of Serrano ham.

Order a sparkling wine or cocktail.

Watch the movement of the port.

And wait for sunset.

Mallorca does not always need to be experienced through a long itinerary. Some of the most authentic island memories come from allowing time to pass without constantly checking the clock.

The pool terrace at Hotel Amic Horizonte offers precisely that possibility.

A Palma Experience for Hotel Guests, Couples and Groups

The relaxed pool and music atmosphere works for many different types of visitors.

Couples Visiting Palma

A sunset cocktail beside the pool can become one of the most romantic moments of a Palma city break.

Friends Travelling to Mallorca

Groups of friends can combine a pool afternoon with music, drinks, Serrano ham and an evening in Palma.

Weekend Travellers

The hotel’s location makes it possible to enjoy Porto Pi, the Paseo Marítimo, the swimming pool and Palma city centre during the same weekend.

Corporate and MICE Groups

Companies organising meetings, incentives or professional events in Palma can add an informal poolside moment to their programme.

Local Residents

Residents of Palma looking for a different atmosphere can discover the city from another perspective, above the port and close to the sea.

International Travellers

Guests arriving from Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Scandinavia or other parts of Europe can enjoy a Mediterranean experience without leaving the city of Palma.

The atmosphere remains open, informal and connected to the identity of Mallorca.

From Daylight to Golden Hour

The most attractive feature of a rooftop or elevated terrace is that it changes throughout the day.

At Hotel Amic Horizonte, every hour creates a different visual experience.

Morning

The Bay of Palma is often calm, the sunlight is clear and the atmosphere around the pool is peaceful.

Midday

The Mediterranean sun becomes stronger and the swimming pool is the natural centre of the terrace.

Afternoon

The heat begins to soften, drinks arrive and the DJ music creates a relaxed social atmosphere.

Golden Hour

The light reflects across the port, the city becomes warmer in colour and the terrace offers some of its most photogenic moments.

Sunset

Cocktails, sparkling wine, music and views come together as the sun disappears behind the Mallorcan landscape.

Evening

The port lights begin to shine, ships become illuminated and Palma takes on a different character.

This transition from swimming pool to sunset atmosphere is one of the reasons why rooftop experiences have become so popular in Palma de Mallorca.

They allow visitors to remain in the same place while the entire city transforms around them.

The Mediterranean Lifestyle, Seen from Above

The idea behind these sessions is simple.

Mallorca is not only a destination to visit. It is a rhythm to experience.

The Mediterranean lifestyle is present in the time we dedicate to eating, talking, sharing, swimming, listening to music and watching the sunset.

At Hotel Amic Horizonte, the rooftop-style pool terrace brings these small pleasures together.

The view connects guests to Palma.

The swimming pool provides a feeling of escape.

The DJ creates the soundtrack.

The cocktails mark the transition from afternoon to evening.

The Serrano ham and sparkling wine create a shared Spanish moment.

And the horizon reminds us to slow down.

This is what a holiday in Mallorca should sometimes feel like.

Look Up in Mallorca: Summer Holidays, Palma and the Sky

2026-07-12T10:46:25.164+02:00

There are moments that deserve more than a photograph. This summer, Mallorca invites us to stop, breathe and look up. Where will you be on 12 August?

LOOK UP IN MALLORCA: A SIMPLE INVITATION TO EXPERIENCE SUMMER DIFFERENTLY

There are moments that deserve more than a photograph

They deserve our full attention.

A sunset over the Mediterranean.

The first light appearing behind the Bay of Palma.

A quiet summer evening beside the sea.

The silhouette of the Serra de Tramuntana beneath a changing sky.

A conversation that makes everyone forget the time.

A rare celestial event capable of making an entire country stop and look upwards.

We live surrounded by images, messages, meetings, notifications and endless demands for our attention. We photograph our meals before tasting them. We check the time without noticing the sky. We record moments while they are still happening.

Perhaps that is why the simplest invitation can sometimes be the most powerful:

Look Up.

On 12 August 2026, the sky will give Spain and Mallorca an extraordinary reason to do exactly that.

But this is not only a story about an eclipse.

It is a story about Mallorca.

About travelling without rushing.

About looking at the Mediterranean with our own eyes.

About discovering Palma beyond a list of places to visit.

About remembering that holidays are not measured only by how many things we manage to do, but by how deeply we experience them.

From an island defined by light, sea and open horizons comes a simple invitation:

Pause.

Breathe.

Be present.

Look up.

What does LOOK UP mean?

LOOK UP is not intended to be a conventional advertising campaign.

It is not a promise that every journey will transform your life.

It is not another demand for your attention.

It is an invitation to recover it.

The idea was born in Mallorca from a simple observation: we spend much of our lives looking down.

At a telephone.

At a screen.

At a diary.

At a map telling us where to go next.

Meanwhile, the sky remains above us.

Every day.

Everywhere.

Constantly changing and asking for nothing in return.

The same sky follows us from home to work, from one country to another, from the city to the beach and from the mountains to the sea.

Yet when did we last stop for five uninterrupted minutes simply to look at it?

LOOK UP invites residents and visitors to pause on 12 August and share a moment beneath the same sky.

The eclipse provides the occasion.

Mallorca provides the setting.

The meaning, however, goes much further.

Because after 12 August, the sky will still be there.

There will still be sunrises worth waking up for, sunsets worth waiting for and nights when the stars remind us how small—and how connected—we are.

Why Mallorca is an island that makes you look up

Some destinations are remembered through monuments.

Others through flavour, music or architecture.

Mallorca is often remembered through light.

Mediterranean light transforms the island constantly.

It touches the pale stone façades of Palma in the morning. It reflects across the harbour at midday. It softens the mountains in the late afternoon. It turns the sea silver, blue, turquoise, violet and gold, sometimes within the same day.

The island does not present only one landscape.

It offers many versions of itself.

There is the urban Mallorca of Palma, with its historic streets, contemporary restaurants, galleries, markets, marinas and cultural life.

There is the coastal Mallorca of beaches, coves, sailing boats, promenades and fishing villages.

There is the rural Mallorca of almond trees, olive groves, vineyards, stone walls and quiet inland towns.

There is also the dramatic Mallorca of the Serra de Tramuntana, the mountain range that runs parallel to the north-western coast and whose cultural landscape was inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2011. Its terraces, dry-stone constructions, farms and historic water-management systems tell a centuries-old story of adaptation between people and the land.

Each area offers a different reason to lift your eyes.

In Palma, you look towards the cathedral rising beside the sea.

In the Tramuntana mountains, you look towards cliffs, peaks and ancient terraces.

In Can Pastilla and Playa de Palma, you look across long stretches of Mediterranean coastline.

In Port de Sóller, you follow the curve of the bay.

In Deià and Valldemossa, your eyes move between stone houses, mountains and sky.

At Cap de Formentor, the landscape seems to continue beyond the edge of the island.

And from the western side of Palma, you can watch the city, harbour and bay change character as the sun moves across the Mediterranean.

Mallorca does not merely offer things to see.

It changes the way you look.

Mallorca holidays: more than sun and beaches

For generations, travellers have chosen Mallorca for its climate and coastline.

Those remain essential parts of the island’s appeal. A warm summer morning beside the Mediterranean, a swim in clear water or an afternoon beneath a parasol are still among the simplest pleasures of a holiday in Mallorca.

But the island has evolved into a far more diverse destination.

Today, people travel to Mallorca for:

Weekend city breaks in Palma.
Summer holidays beside the Mediterranean.
Art, architecture and cultural heritage.
Gastronomy and local produce.
Cycling and outdoor training.
Hiking in the Serra de Tramuntana.
Golf holidays.
Sailing and water sports.
Wellness experiences and yoga.
Romantic escapes.
Business meetings and corporate events.
Remote working and extended stays.
Music, exhibitions and festivals.
Winter sun and longer low-season visits.

This diversity is one of Mallorca’s greatest strengths.

You can spend the morning walking through Palma’s historic centre, have lunch near the sea, visit a contemporary art space in the afternoon and end the day watching the sky change colour across the bay.

You can use Palma as a base and discover a different part of the island each day.

Travel north towards Alcúdia and Pollença.

Drive west into the Serra de Tramuntana.

Explore Valldemossa, Deià, Sóller or Banyalbufar.

Travel east towards Artà, Capdepera or Mallorca’s quieter coves.

Discover inland towns such as Sineu, Petra, Alaró or Santa Maria del Camí.

Or remain in Palma and allow the city to reveal itself gradually.

The official tourism platform for Palma presents the city as a destination combining heritage, museums, beaches, gastronomy, shopping and Mediterranean culture—and that mixture is precisely what makes Palma work so well for both a short escape and a longer Mallorca holiday.

The challenge is not finding something to do.

The challenge is accepting that you cannot experience everything at once.

That is where a different way of travelling begins.

Slow travel in Mallorca: the luxury of not rushing

The expression slow travel can sound like another tourism trend.

In Mallorca, it can be something much simpler.

It can mean staying at breakfast a little longer because the view is changing.

Walking instead of taking a taxi.

Returning to the same café because someone remembered your name.

Spending an afternoon at one beach instead of trying to visit five.

Choosing a neighbourhood and discovering it street by street.

Taking time to speak to local people.

Eating seasonal food.

Watching the fishing boats, ferries and sailing yachts cross Palma Bay.

Allowing part of the day to remain unplanned.

Slow travel is not necessarily about travelling slowly in a literal sense.

It is about paying attention.

A holiday can become another exhausting schedule if every hour is filled with reservations, transfers and attractions. The fear of missing something can prevent us from experiencing anything fully.

Mallorca rewards a less hurried approach.

The island is full of details that cannot be appreciated from a moving car or through a checklist:

The sound of shutters opening in the morning.

The scent of pine trees near the coast.

The changing temperature when evening arrives.

The stone under your feet in Palma’s old streets.

The first coffee on a terrace.

The conversation around a long Mediterranean lunch.

The quiet that follows sunset.

The sea breeze reaching the city.

The colour of the sky reflected in a hotel window.

These may not appear on a list of the “top ten things to do in Mallorca”.

They are often the moments people remember most clearly.

Palma de Mallorca: a Mediterranean city made for exploration

Palma is sometimes treated merely as the arrival point for a holiday elsewhere on the island.

That is a mistake.

The capital of the Balearic Islands deserves to be experienced as a destination in its own right.

Palma combines the energy of a European city with the openness of the Mediterranean. History, art, shopping, gastronomy, nightlife, beaches, marinas and residential neighbourhoods coexist within a relatively compact urban area.

The city changes as you move through it.

Near La Seu, the Cathedral of Mallorca, monumental architecture meets the sea.

Around the old town, narrow streets reveal courtyards, churches, traditional shops, galleries and traces of the cultures that have shaped the city.

La Lonja and the surrounding streets become animated in the evening.

Santa Catalina brings together market life, restaurants, cafés and an international atmosphere.

The revitalised seafront and Paseo Marítimo reconnect Palma with its bay.

To the west, areas such as Porto Pi, La Bonanova, El Terreno and Cala Major offer different perspectives on the city, harbour and coastline.

Palma is also a useful gateway for exploring the rest of Mallorca, but it should never be reduced to a place from which to leave.

Stay.

Walk.

Look around.

Look up.

The Bay of Palma: a landscape that never remains still

The Bay of Palma is one of the defining geographical and emotional elements of the city.

It is never exactly the same.

In the morning, the water can appear pale and almost metallic.

At midday, the Mediterranean becomes brighter and more intense.

In the afternoon, boats, ferries and cruise ships draw moving lines across the bay.

Towards evening, the changing light softens the buildings and mountains in the distance.

At night, the illuminated city is reflected across the water.

The bay connects Palma with the wider Mediterranean.

It is both landscape and movement.

People arrive through it, sail across it, work beside it, exercise along it and stop to contemplate it.

For visitors staying in Palma, the bay becomes a visual reference throughout the trip. It helps to understand the geography of the city: the cathedral and historic centre to one side, the harbour and Porto Pi to the west, beaches and coastal neighbourhoods extending around the water.

It also reminds us that Palma is not only a city beside the sea.

It is a city shaped by the sea.

Bellver Castle, Porto Pi and the western side of Palma

The western side of Palma offers a particularly interesting combination of history, nature, shopping, maritime activity and residential life.

Bellver Castle, set above the city and surrounded by woodland, is famous for its circular architecture and panoramic perspectives over Palma and the bay. The official Visit Palma guide highlights the castle’s 360-degree views, making it one of the city’s most recognisable places for understanding Palma’s relationship with the sea and surrounding landscape.

Below Bellver, the city descends towards the harbour.

The Porto Pi area combines the maritime character of the port with shops, restaurants and everyday city life. Nearby, the Paseo Marítimo provides access to Palma’s waterfront atmosphere, while Cala Major adds beaches, cultural references and another side of coastal Palma.

This part of the city can be especially convenient for travellers who want to combine:

Palma city breaks.
Access to the harbour and seafront.
Shopping at Porto Pi.
Visits to Bellver Castle and its forest.
Days at Cala Major or nearby coastal areas.
Excursions towards Calvià and the south-west of Mallorca.
Business meetings and corporate travel.
Cultural experiences and Mediterranean evenings.

It is an area from which the city and the wider island feel closely connected.

Hotel AMIC Horizonte: a base for discovering Palma and Mallorca

A good hotel should offer more than a bed.

It should help guests understand where they are.

Hotel AMIC Horizonte, located on the western side of Palma near Porto Pi and overlooking the Bay of Palma, provides a useful base for travellers who want to combine the city, the coast and excursions around Mallorca.

The hotel is not presented here as the only place from which to experience 12 August.

Mallorca offers many different landscapes, and every visitor should choose a location appropriate to their plans, mobility, local guidance and safe observation conditions.

The role of Hotel AMIC Horizonte is broader and more enduring.

It is a place from which to enjoy a holiday in Palma.

A place to begin the morning looking across the bay.

A place to rest after exploring the city.

A place from which to discover Mallorca’s beaches, villages, mountains, culture and gastronomy.

A meeting point for couples, independent travellers, groups, professionals, sports visitors and people staying in Palma for different reasons.

Its location connects guests naturally with several sides of the destination:

Porto Pi, for shopping, services and the maritime character of Palma.

Bellver Castle and Bellver Forest, for history, running routes, walks and panoramic city perspectives.

Paseo Marítimo, for the renewed waterfront atmosphere.

Cala Major, for the coast, beaches and cultural surroundings.

Palma city centre, for architecture, gastronomy, markets, shopping and nightlife.

The port and Bay of Palma, which define much of the hotel’s visual identity.

From Hotel AMIC Horizonte, a summer holiday can include long days exploring Mallorca and quieter moments simply appreciating the view.

That balance matters.

A trip should contain discoveries.

It should also contain pauses.

A hotel with an open horizon

The name Horizonte has always suggested more than a geographical line.

A horizon represents possibility.

It is where the visible world appears to end and the imagination continues.

At Hotel AMIC Horizonte, the Bay of Palma is not simply a backdrop. It forms part of the experience of staying there.

Guests can watch maritime activity across the harbour.

They can see the light change over the Mediterranean.

They can recognise how Palma wakes, moves and quietens throughout the day.

The hotel’s terraces, panoramic areas, pool, communal spaces, rooms and suites allow visitors to experience different versions of the same landscape.

But the contemporary identity of Hotel AMIC Horizonte also goes beyond views.

The hotel is developing as an open and versatile meeting point in Palma:

A hotel for city breaks and Mallorca holidays.
A base for active tourism and sports groups.
A location for meetings, presentations and corporate stays.
A home for Horizon The Gallery and artistic exhibitions.
A space connected with yoga, wellness and movement.
A place for music, gastronomy and Mediterranean social life.
A meeting point for international visitors and the local community.
A hotel from which stories about Palma and Mallorca can be told.

LOOK UP fits naturally within this identity.

Not because the hotel claims ownership of the sky.

But because a place called Horizonte should always encourage people to look beyond what is immediately in front of them.

What to do during a summer holiday in Palma

Summer in Palma can be as active or as relaxed as you choose.

A balanced itinerary might begin with the city and gradually expand towards the rest of Mallorca.

Walk through Palma’s historic centre

Begin near the cathedral and Parc de la Mar.

Walk without rushing through the old town.

Notice the façades, patios, churches and narrow streets. Visit La Lonja, continue towards Passeig del Born and explore the small streets connecting the city’s historic and commercial areas.

The purpose is not to cover every monument.

Choose a few places and leave time for discovery.

Experience Palma’s markets and gastronomy

Mallorca can be understood through what it produces and how people eat.

Markets, bakeries, cafés, restaurants and neighbourhood bars allow visitors to discover local ingredients and traditions.

Look for seasonal produce, Mallorcan olive oil, local cheeses, almonds, citrus, wines and classic island recipes.

Try an ensaïmada.

Take time over lunch.

Allow dinner to begin later than usual.

Mediterranean gastronomy is not only about food. It is also about conversation and time shared around a table.

Discover contemporary and historic art

Palma’s relationship with art extends from historic architecture to contemporary galleries and cultural institutions.

The legacy of Joan Miró, the exhibitions found throughout the city and independent artistic spaces all contribute to Palma’s creative character.

At Hotel AMIC Horizonte, Horizon The Gallery brings art into the life of the hotel and connects visitors with artists, exhibitions and cultural conversations.

Art does not need to be separated from travel.

It can be encountered in the places where people sleep, meet, eat and move.

Walk or run around Bellver

Bellver Forest provides an opportunity to move through nature without leaving Palma.

The area is popular for walking and running, and the castle offers a powerful perspective on the city and bay.

It is also an ideal reminder that even within an urban holiday, moments of greenery and quiet are close by.

Spend time beside the Mediterranean

Choose a beach or coastal area according to the type of day you want.

Cala Major is close to western Palma.

Can Pastilla and Playa de Palma offer a long coastal environment suited to walking, cycling and seaside activity.

Other parts of Mallorca provide smaller coves, family beaches, dramatic coastal scenery and quieter swimming spots.

Respect local access guidance, environmental rules and changing sea conditions.

The Mediterranean is not merely scenery.

It is a living environment.

Take an excursion into the Serra de Tramuntana

The Serra de Tramuntana offers one of Mallorca’s most distinctive landscapes.

Valldemossa, Deià, Sóller, Fornalutx, Banyalbufar, Estellencs and Pollença each offer different relationships between mountains, architecture and island life.

The region deserves more than a rapid photograph from a viewpoint.

Walk through a village.

Eat locally.

Learn about the dry-stone landscape.

Notice how generations adapted farming and water systems to difficult terrain.

Travel respectfully, especially during the busy summer months, and consider public transport or organised options where appropriate.

Leave space for nothing

This may be the most important recommendation.

Do not plan every minute.

Leave an afternoon open.

Return to the hotel.

Swim.

Read.

Have a drink.

Watch the bay.

Speak to the person travelling with you.

Or simply sit quietly.

Sometimes the best Mallorca experience is the one you did not schedule.

12 August 2026: a remarkable evening in the Spanish sky

On Wednesday, 12 August 2026, Spain will experience the first total solar eclipse visible from the Iberian Peninsula in more than a century.

The path of totality will cross Spain from west to east, passing through areas from Galicia to the Balearic Islands. According to Spain’s National Geographic Institute, the eclipse in Palma will begin at approximately 19:38, reach its maximum at around 20:32, shortly before sunset, with the Sun extremely low above the horizon. Exact circumstances depend on location and should always be checked through official astronomical resources.

This is significant.

But it also creates practical challenges.

Because the Sun will be so low in Palma, visibility will depend heavily on the precise location, orientation, terrain, buildings, local conditions and weather.

For that reason, LOOK UP does not declare one single “best place” to watch the eclipse in Mallorca.

Nor should anyone assume that an attractive viewpoint automatically provides safe or unobstructed visibility.

Visitors should consult official information, local authorities, astronomical organisations and updated weather conditions before deciding where to experience the event.

Some people may choose an organised observation point.

Others may join an astronomical association or official activity.

Some will experience the evening from a coastal area with appropriate guidance.

Others may simply appreciate the atmosphere of a rare summer evening in Mallorca without attempting direct solar observation.

The objective is not to compete for one viewpoint.

The objective is to experience the moment safely, calmly and respectfully.

How to observe a solar eclipse safely

LOOK UP is an invitation to be present, but presence must always include responsibility.

Looking directly at the Sun can cause permanent eye damage. Ordinary sunglasses, dark glass, photographic filters and improvised materials are not adequate protection.

The Spanish National Geographic Institute warns that direct solar observation can damage the retina without producing pain and that optical devices such as binoculars, cameras and telescopes can intensify the risk when not fitted and operated with appropriate solar equipment.

For safe eclipse observation:

Follow the instructions of official astronomical and public authorities.
Use certified solar-eclipse viewers from a reliable provider.
Check that protective glasses are undamaged before use.
Never look directly at the Sun through ordinary sunglasses.
Never use binoculars, telescopes or camera lenses without specialist solar filters correctly installed.
Supervise children carefully.
Do not drive, stop illegally or enter restricted land in search of a viewpoint.
Avoid blocking roads, emergency access or residential areas.
Respect the landscape and take all waste away.
Confirm updated conditions and timings for your exact location.

During totality, different rules may apply for the very brief period when the Sun is completely covered, but the transition happens rapidly. Anyone without specialist knowledge should participate through an organised observation led by experienced professionals.

Looking up should be memorable for the right reasons.

The eclipse is the moment, not the whole story

The eclipse will last for a limited time.

LOOK UP should not.

That distinction is central to this project.

We do not want people to look at the sky only because an exceptional event tells them to do so.

We want the event to remind us of something we can continue doing afterwards.

Look up when the first cloud appears after weeks of summer blue.

Look up when morning light reaches the buildings of Palma.

Look up when an aircraft crosses the sky.

Look up during a walk through Bellver Forest.

Look up from a terrace beside the Bay of Palma.

Look up when the moon appears over the sea.

Look up when someone beside you says, “Have you seen that?”

Look up because attention is one of the most valuable things we possess.

Where we direct it shapes how we experience the world.

Why holidays should help us recover our attention

People often say they need a holiday because they are tired.

But modern tiredness is not always purely physical.

It can come from constant interruption.

From the feeling that something always requires a response.

From consuming more information than we can process.

From moving continuously between tasks without ever feeling that one is complete.

A meaningful holiday can create distance from that rhythm.

Not necessarily through a digital detox or a strict set of rules.

Simply through a different focus.

The sea instead of the screen.

A conversation instead of a notification.

A walk instead of a feed.

A real horizon instead of another image of one.

Mallorca offers many environments where this shift can happen naturally.

The rhythm of a beach morning.

The concentration required on a mountain path.

The silence inside a historic building.

The sensory detail of a local market.

The movement of boats across the bay.

The sound of evening arriving.

LOOK UP is not against technology.

Technology helps us travel, communicate, navigate, learn and preserve memories.

The invitation is simply to choose moments when the experience comes first and the recording comes afterwards—or not at all.

Some moments do not need proof.

Being there is enough.

A song connected to the same idea

Music will become part of LOOK UP.

A song can carry an idea beyond a page and allow people to experience the same emotion in different places.

The song “Levanta la Vista” was created around the same invitation:

To pause.

To look upwards.

To recognise that people in different cities, countries and circumstances still share the same sky.

The song is not intended to replace the sounds of the moment.

Nor does anyone need to listen to it to participate.

Some people will choose silence.

Some will listen to the sea.

Some will hear the voices of friends and family.

Others may play the song as a personal soundtrack to the evening.

Each form of participation is valid.

The essential action remains beautifully simple:

Look up.

As the project develops, this pillar article will connect with the official song, multilingual versions of the manifesto, images, videos and stories from people participating in Mallorca, Spain and other places.

But everything will continue to return to the same idea.

There are moments that deserve our full attention.

Born in Mallorca, shared with everyone

LOOK UP has a clear geographical origin.

Mallorca.

That matters.

Universal ideas become stronger when they begin somewhere real.

This one begins on a Mediterranean island where the relationship between people, sea, light and horizon is part of everyday life.

Its Mallorcan expression is:

Alça el cap.

In Spanish:

Levanta la vista.

In English:

Look Up.

In French:

Levez les yeux.

In German:

Heb den Blick.

In Italian:

Alza lo sguardo.

The wording changes.

The gesture remains the same.

No language owns the sky.

No hotel owns the horizon.

No brand owns the emotion of looking upwards.

The project may be born in Mallorca, but it is open to anyone who recognises its meaning.

A resident of Palma.

A visitor from Berlin.

A family in Madrid.

A couple in Paris.

A photographer in London.

A traveller in Rome.

A child seeing an eclipse for the first time.

Someone remembering one they experienced many years ago.

Everyone brings a different story.

Everyone looks at the same sky.

Frequently asked questions about LOOK UP, Mallorca and 12 August

What is LOOK UP?

LOOK UP is an open invitation born in Mallorca encouraging people to pause, breathe and pay attention to the sky and the world around them. The eclipse on 12 August 2026 provides a special shared moment, but the message is designed to continue beyond that date.

Is LOOK UP an eclipse campaign?

The eclipse is an important part of the story, but LOOK UP is broader. It is about presence, slow travel, shared experiences and recovering the habit of looking beyond our screens.

Will the solar eclipse be visible from Mallorca?

Yes. The path of the 12 August 2026 total solar eclipse crosses Spain and reaches the Balearic Islands. In Palma, the maximum occurs close to sunset with the Sun very low above the horizon, making exact location, local terrain and visibility especially important. Always consult official information for your precise location.

Is Hotel AMIC Horizonte the official viewing location?

No. Hotel AMIC Horizonte is presented as an excellent base for enjoying a Palma and Mallorca holiday. LOOK UP does not claim that the hotel is the main or official eclipse observation location. Observation plans should follow official astronomical, safety and local guidance.

Where should I watch the eclipse in Mallorca?

There is no universal answer. The suitability of a location depends on its orientation, horizon, terrain, capacity, access restrictions, weather and safety management. Organised activities led by astronomical or public bodies may be the most appropriate option for many visitors.

Do I need special glasses?

Yes. Direct observation of the Sun requires certified eclipse viewers or professionally approved observation methods. Standard sunglasses are not sufficient. Follow guidance from official astronomical authorities.

Can I take photographs of the eclipse?

Solar photography requires specialist filters and technical knowledge. Looking through an unprotected optical device can cause instant and irreversible eye damage. Seek professional advice before using cameras, binoculars or telescopes.

Is August a good time to visit Mallorca?

August is one of Mallorca’s busiest summer periods. Visitors should book accommodation, transport, restaurants and activities well in advance. The island offers beaches, culture, gastronomy, nightlife, sailing and warm Mediterranean evenings, but responsible planning is essential during peak season.

Why stay in Palma?

Palma offers a combination of city life, heritage, culture, beaches, gastronomy, shopping and access to the rest of Mallorca. It works well for short breaks, longer holidays, business travel and visitors who want more than a traditional beach-only stay.

Where is Hotel AMIC Horizonte?

Hotel AMIC Horizonte is located on the western side of Palma, near Porto Pi, overlooking the Bay of Palma. Its position is convenient for discovering the harbour area, Bellver, Cala Major, the Paseo Marítimo, Palma city centre and the south-west of Mallorca.

How can I participate in LOOK UP?

Participation can be as simple as pausing on 12 August, looking upwards safely and sharing the moment with someone. You can also tell us where you will be, share the manifesto, listen to the song when released or publish your own reflection using the project’s message.

Where will you look up from?

Perhaps you will be in Palma.

Perhaps in another part of Mallorca.

Perhaps on the Spanish mainland.

Perhaps somewhere the eclipse is only partially visible.

Perhaps you will not see it at all because of the weather.

The question still matters.

Because LOOK UP is not only about what appears in the sky.

It is about where we place our attention.

It is about deciding that one moment deserves to be experienced completely.

Without rushing towards the next thing.

Without needing to improve it.

Without needing to prove that it happened.

Just being there.

From Mallorca, we invite you to choose your place, follow official safety guidance and share the moment with the people around you.

On 12 August 2026, the sky will offer Spain and the Balearic Islands an extraordinary evening.

Mallorca will offer everything else:

The Mediterranean.

The mountains.

The villages.

The city.

The beaches.

The light.

The atmosphere.

The journey.

And when the moment arrives, wherever you have chosen to be, remember the invitation that began on this island:

Pause.

Breathe.

Be present.

Look up.

One island. One moment. One shared sky.

Where will you look up from on 12 August?

Born in Mallorca. Shared with everyone.

A New Horizon for Palma: The Small Great Hotel Where Hospitality, Business and Culture Meet

Hotel Amic Horizonte begins a new chapter overlooking the Bay of Palma

There are hotels that provide accommodation, and there are hotels that gradually become part of the story of a city.

Hotel Amic Horizonte belongs to the second group.

Overlooking the Bay of Palma, the Port of Palma and the Mediterranean horizon, Hotel Amic Horizonte is entering a new stage in its history. This new chapter is not defined by a single renovation, a new room or an isolated service. It represents a broader transformation: a renewed way of understanding hospitality, business travel, culture, wellbeing and the relationship between a hotel and the city around it.

The purpose is clear: to evolve without losing identity.

Hotel Amic Horizonte wants to remain what it has always been at heart—a welcoming, recognisable and approachable hotel in Palma de Mallorca—while becoming an even more active meeting point for travellers, companies, artists, residents, sports groups, cultural organisations and the wider Balearic community.

It is a new direction built on a simple belief:

Renewing a hotel does not mean erasing its past. It means preparing its essence for the future.

For Hotel Amic Horizonte, that future is connected to Palma, Mallorca, the Mediterranean and the people who give life to the hotel every day.

More than a renovated hotel in Palma de Mallorca

The new era of Hotel Amic Horizonte cannot be explained only through physical renovations.

Rooms, shared areas, terraces, meeting spaces, technology and services are important, but they are only part of a larger story.

The transformation is also about how the hotel is used, how guests experience it and how the people of Palma can connect with it.

During recent months, Hotel Amic Horizonte has continued updating different areas of the property while introducing new experiences and new reasons to visit. The aim has been to strengthen the spaces where guests do more than sleep: places where they meet, work, talk, celebrate, exercise, discover art, enjoy a meal or simply stop to look across the Bay of Palma.

This includes renewed guest areas, improved accommodation options, more versatile corporate spaces, distinctive suites, cultural initiatives, wellbeing activities and stronger technological support for both guests and hotel operations.

But the most important renovation is not always the one that can be photographed.

It is the change in atmosphere.

It is the decision to make the hotel more open, more dynamic and more connected to Palma.

It is the ambition to transform Hotel Amic Horizonte from a hotel with exceptional views into a hotel with exceptional views where meaningful things happen.

The meaning of a “small great hotel” in Palma

Hotel Amic Horizonte defines itself as a small great hotel.

This expression may appear contradictory, but it describes the character of the hotel perfectly.

It is “great” because it has the accommodation capacity, facilities, services and versatility required to receive international travellers, business groups, sports teams, meetings, incentive programmes, celebrations and cultural events.

It is “small” in the best possible sense because it wants to preserve proximity, flexibility, personality and human contact.

A small great hotel is a place where a corporate group can organise a professional meeting without feeling anonymous.

It is a hotel where couples can enjoy a special suite overlooking Palma without becoming just another room number.

It is a place where a returning guest can still recognise members of the team.

It is somewhere an artist can exhibit work, a local resident can attend an event and an international visitor can experience a more authentic connection with the city.

That combination—significant capacity with a personal approach—is at the heart of the Hotel Amic Horizonte identity.

The goal is not to imitate large international resorts or become an impersonal urban property.

The goal is to offer many of the possibilities of a larger hotel while maintaining the soul of an independent, approachable and deeply local establishment.

The capacity of a large hotel. The spirit of a familiar Palma hotel.

A hotel overlooking the Bay of Palma with a truly strategic location

Location has always been one of the defining features of Hotel Amic Horizonte.

The hotel stands in the elevated area of Bonanova, overlooking the Port of Palma and the Bay of Palma. From this position, guests can experience a broad Mediterranean panorama that changes throughout the day.

In the morning, the light rises over Palma and illuminates the bay.

During the day, boats, ferries and cruise ships move through the Port of Palma.

At sunset, the colours of the Mediterranean transform the terraces, balconies and sea-view rooms.

At night, the lights of Palma create a completely different horizon.

This location places the hotel close to some of the most relevant areas for leisure, business and tourism in Palma de Mallorca:

The Port of Palma
Porto Pi
Palma’s cruise terminals
Paseo Marítimo
Castell de Bellver
Cala Major
Marivent
Auditorium de Palma
Palma city centre
Santa Catalina
Palma’s old town
Palma Convention Centre
The marina and nautical areas of the Bay of Palma

This combination makes Hotel Amic Horizonte particularly attractive for travellers seeking a hotel near the Port of Palma, a hotel near Porto Pi, accommodation before or after a Mediterranean cruise, a business hotel in Palma or a city-break base with easy access to both central Palma and the western coastal area.

The hotel is not located in an isolated resort.

It is part of Palma.

Its terraces look towards the city, its guests move through the city and its new cultural and corporate activities are designed to create stronger connections with the city.

Palma de Mallorca: much more than a summer destination

Palma has evolved into a complete Mediterranean urban destination.

It is the capital of the Balearic Islands, an international gateway to Mallorca and a city where history, contemporary culture, gastronomy, architecture, shopping, nautical activity, sport, business travel and Mediterranean lifestyle coexist throughout the year.

Visitors come to Palma to walk through its historic centre, discover its patios, visit La Seu Cathedral, explore the neighbourhoods of Santa Catalina and La Lonja, attend exhibitions, experience local gastronomy, participate in conferences, join sporting events or begin a longer journey around Mallorca.

This diversity is also one of the reasons Hotel Amic Horizonte is expanding its own identity.

The traditional distinction between a holiday hotel and a business hotel is becoming less rigid. Modern travellers may combine work and leisure, extend a corporate trip, attend an event with their partner, work remotely for part of the day or search for cultural and wellbeing experiences during a city break.

Hotel Amic Horizonte is responding to this evolution.

Its new stage is designed for a Palma that lives throughout the year—not only in July and August, but also during the quieter and highly attractive months of autumn, winter and spring.

For Hotel Amic Horizonte, the future of tourism in Palma is not simply about receiving more visitors. It is about creating more meaningful reasons to travel, meet, return and connect.

Hotel Amic Horizonte as a MICE hotel in Palma de Mallorca

A new setting for meetings, incentives, conferences and corporate events

One of the central pillars of this new phase is the development of Hotel Amic Horizonte as a venue for the MICE sector in Palma.

MICE refers to:

Meetings
Incentives
Conferences
Exhibitions and corporate events

However, the needs of companies have changed.

Today, businesses are rarely searching only for four walls, a table and a projector.

They are looking for environments that improve concentration, encourage conversation, strengthen teams and create memorable shared experiences.

They want professional facilities, but they also want light, space, hospitality, flexibility, good food, convenient accommodation and opportunities to disconnect after the formal programme.

This is precisely where Hotel Amic Horizonte has an important competitive advantage.

The hotel can combine accommodation, meeting rooms, food and beverage services, terraces, sea views, informal networking areas and Mediterranean experiences within the same property.

A management team can hold a strategic session in the morning, enjoy a business lunch, organise an informal conversation on a terrace and end the day with dinner or a drink overlooking the Bay of Palma.

An incentive group can combine professional content with yoga, gastronomy, culture, local activities or moments beside the pool.

A company presentation can take place in a dedicated room before moving into a more relaxed environment for networking.

A training programme can bring participants together without separating the working session from the hospitality experience.

Hotel Amic Horizonte does not want to offer companies only square metres.

It wants to offer a complete corporate journey in Palma de Mallorca.

What types of business events can Hotel Amic Horizonte host?

The hotel’s flexible approach makes it suitable for different corporate and professional formats, including:

Executive meetings in Palma

Small or medium-sized leadership teams can meet in a private setting away from their usual office. The sea views and Mediterranean environment provide a change of perspective that can support strategic thinking and more productive conversations.

Training sessions and professional workshops

Companies, associations and educational organisations can use the hotel for seminars, leadership programmes, communication workshops and professional development sessions.

Product presentations

Brands can combine a formal presentation with accommodation, catering and networking in the same location.

Corporate retreats

Teams can spend one or several days in Palma combining work sessions with wellbeing, cultural activities and informal moments.

Incentive travel to Mallorca

Mallorca remains a highly attractive incentive destination thanks to its international accessibility, Mediterranean climate, gastronomy, coastline and variety of group experiences. Hotel Amic Horizonte adds the convenience of staying in Palma with views of the bay and access to the city.

Networking events

Terraces, common areas and food and beverage spaces can be used to create less formal professional meetings where conversation becomes the central element.

Small conferences and professional gatherings

Associations, companies and specialist communities can organise meetings that require accommodation, meeting facilities and social spaces within a single hotel.

Sports and specialist groups

Cycling groups, golf groups, swimming teams, wellness retreats and other organised communities can combine accommodation, meals, meetings and dedicated activities.

Hybrid business and leisure stays

The hotel is also suited to bleisure travellers—people who extend a business trip to discover Palma or combine professional responsibilities with leisure and wellbeing.

The objective is flexibility.

Every company is different, and every event has its own rhythm. Hotel Amic Horizonte wants to work with organisers, agencies, destination management companies and corporate travel planners to create proposals adapted to each group.

Why choose a hotel in Palma for an incentive trip?

Incentive travel is most effective when the destination creates emotional value.

Participants should return home not only having attended an event, but having shared an experience.

Palma offers a strong combination of urban life and Mediterranean character. A corporate visitor can move from a meeting to the seafront, from a presentation to the historic centre or from a training session to a sunset overlooking the Bay of Palma.

Mallorca also provides options for:

Sailing and nautical activities
Cycling routes
Golf
Mediterranean gastronomy
Cultural visits
Art and architecture
Team-building activities
Wellness programmes
Coastal excursions
Village and countryside experiences
Meetings with local creators and businesses

Hotel Amic Horizonte can act as the operational and emotional base for this type of programme.

Its role is not simply to provide bedrooms. It is to connect accommodation, meeting requirements, dining, terraces and experiences into a coherent stay.

This is especially relevant for companies searching for an incentive hotel in Mallorca, a corporate hotel in Palma, a meeting venue near the Port of Palma or a Mediterranean location for international business groups.

Technology with a human purpose

A more connected hotel without losing personal hospitality

Technology is another important part of the transformation of Hotel Amic Horizonte.

However, the hotel’s philosophy is very clear:

Technology should support hospitality, not replace it.

Digital solutions can make a hotel faster, more efficient and better coordinated. They can improve reservations, payments, connectivity, check-in procedures, internal communication, maintenance, pricing, reputation management and the hotel’s ability to understand demand.

Guests may not always see the systems operating behind the scenes, but they experience the result.

They notice when information is clearer.

They notice when a process is quicker.

They notice when departments communicate effectively.

They notice when the hotel can anticipate a need or respond more efficiently.

Hotel Amic Horizonte has therefore continued to reinforce its digital ecosystem and internal management tools. The objective is to create a smoother experience from the initial search and reservation to arrival, stay, departure and post-stay communication.

At the same time, the hotel does not want technology to remove the human element.

A screen cannot replace a genuine welcome.

Automation cannot replace empathy.

A system cannot create the emotional memory that makes somebody decide to return.

The formula is simple:

More technology to become more efficient. More humanity to remain Hotel Amic Horizonte.

Horizon The Gallery: an art gallery inside a Palma hotel

When art becomes part of everyday hotel life

One of the most visible symbols of this new era is Horizon The Gallery, the art gallery located inside Hotel Amic Horizonte.

The project was born from a simple but powerful idea: art does not always need to exist in a separate or intimidating space.

Art can be part of everyday life.

It can appear during a hotel stay.

It can become the starting point of a conversation.

It can surprise somebody arriving for a business meeting.

It can connect an international guest with a local artist.

It can transform an unused area into a place with meaning.

Horizon The Gallery is therefore not intended to be decorative background.

It is designed as a living cultural space.

The gallery provides a platform where artists can exhibit work and where guests, Palma residents, collectors, companies and cultural communities can meet in a different environment.

An exhibition inside a hotel creates an unusual relationship between art and movement. Unlike a traditional gallery, hotel guests may encounter a work without specifically planning an art visit. A business participant may discover an artist between two sessions. A local resident may enter the hotel for an opening and see the building from a completely new perspective.

This element of discovery is essential.

Horizon The Gallery adds identity to the hotel while creating another cultural point on the map of Palma de Mallorca.

It also supports the hotel’s broader belief that culture is not an accessory.

Creating culture means creating connections.

Connections between artists and audiences.

Connections between travellers and Palma.

Connections between the hotel and the local community.

Connections between a physical space and the stories that take place inside it.

A cultural hotel connected to Palma and the Balearic Islands

Palma has a rich and active cultural identity.

Its museums, galleries, foundations, historic buildings, theatres, festivals and independent creative spaces contribute to a city that can be experienced through art throughout the year.

Hotel Amic Horizonte wants to participate in that cultural ecosystem in its own way.

The ambition is not to compete with Palma’s established museums or galleries. It is to offer a complementary space: approachable, flexible and capable of reaching audiences who may not encounter art in a conventional environment.

Future cultural programming may include:

Temporary exhibitions
Artist presentations
Opening events
Cultural conversations
Creative workshops
Meetings between artists and guests
Collaborations with local organisations
Small performances
Photography projects
Design and visual culture initiatives
Events connected to major cultural moments in Palma

Through Horizon The Gallery, the hotel can become part of the route of a resident exploring contemporary culture in Palma, an international visitor interested in Mallorcan art or a company looking to add a cultural component to an event.

A meeting can end with a private gallery visit.

An incentive programme can introduce participants to a local artist.

A dinner can take place in dialogue with an exhibition.

A hotel stay can lead to an unexpected cultural discovery.

That is the type of connection the new Hotel Amic Horizonte wants to encourage.

Toastmasters, communication and the hotel as a place to grow

Hotel Amic Horizonte is also home to Toastmasters activities, another example of the hotel’s evolving role as a place of learning, leadership and community.

Toastmasters is based on communication, confidence, public speaking, listening and personal development.

These values fit naturally with the hotel’s new vision.

A hotel can be much more than a place where people pass through anonymously.

It can be a place where people meet regularly.

It can host communities.

It can support learning.

It can provide the setting for new ideas.

It can help people improve, communicate and lead.

By welcoming Toastmasters, Hotel Amic Horizonte reinforces its identity as an open and active space in Palma. Participants may be residents, professionals, entrepreneurs, students or international visitors, but they share a common purpose: becoming better communicators and stronger leaders.

This type of initiative also creates continuity.

It means that the hotel has a life beyond the arrival and departure of tourists. It becomes a recurring meeting point for people from Palma and Mallorca.

That connection with local communities is an essential part of the hotel’s future.

A hotel open to Palma and the Balearic community

Residents are also welcome at the new Horizonte

Hotel Amic Horizonte wants to challenge the idea that hotels are only for tourists.

A hotel is part of its neighbourhood and part of its city.

It employs local people, works with local suppliers, receives local companies and occupies a physical and emotional position within the destination.

For this reason, one of the objectives of the new stage is to open the hotel more clearly to Palma residents and the wider Balearic community.

This may take many forms:

Art exhibitions
Cultural openings
Charity initiatives
Talks and presentations
Professional meetings
Training sessions
Toastmasters
Yoga and wellbeing activities
Gastronomic events
Social gatherings
Sports-related activities
Community collaborations
Special events on the terraces
Experiences connected to Palma’s cultural calendar

A person living in Palma may discover Hotel Amic Horizonte through an exhibition.

Another may attend a company event.

Someone else may visit for a social or charity initiative.

A local professional may come for Toastmasters or a networking session.

A couple may choose the hotel for a special experience without leaving the city.

The more reasons people have to enter the hotel, the stronger its relationship with Palma becomes.

A hotel contains a great deal of life within its walls.

But it can also contribute life to the city outside them.

Wellbeing overlooking the Mediterranean

Sunrise yoga in Palma de Mallorca

Wellbeing is another essential part of the Hotel Amic Horizonte experience.

One of its most symbolic activities is yoga at sunrise.

The concept is simple: begin the day with movement, breathing and calm while the morning light appears over the Bay of Palma.

Yet the experience represents something larger.

It reflects a more conscious way of travelling and a more balanced approach to hospitality.

Today’s guests increasingly value activities that help them feel better rather than simply consume more. They want space to move, rest, think and reconnect.

A sunrise yoga session can become one of the most memorable moments of a trip to Palma.

For corporate and incentive groups, it can also provide a different beginning to the working day. A team that meets first in an atmosphere of calm may communicate differently during the sessions that follow.

Wellbeing experiences at Hotel Amic Horizonte can connect naturally with:

Morning yoga
Guided exercise
Massage and relaxation
Healthy routines
Running routes
Walks along Palma’s seafront
Routes towards Bellver Castle
Pool and terrace time
Mediterranean food
Moments of digital disconnection
Activities for corporate groups

This does not mean transforming the hotel into a specialised wellness retreat.

It means giving wellbeing a meaningful place within the wider experience.

Special suites and memorable stays in Palma

Accommodation should not be purely functional.

Sometimes a guest is searching for something more: a room for an anniversary, a romantic escape, a celebration, a honeymoon moment, a city break or simply a different view of Palma.

Hotel Amic Horizonte has developed special suites with individual character and a stronger emotional identity.

These rooms are intended to become part of the memory of the stay.

A suite overlooking Palma Bay is not only a larger room. It is a private viewpoint over the city, port and Mediterranean.

It is a place to wake up slowly.

It is a space to celebrate.

It is an opportunity to see Palma from another perspective.

This approach supports the hotel’s aim of attracting couples, experience-led travellers and guests searching for special suites in Palma de Mallorca.

It also complements the corporate offer. Senior executives, speakers, event organisers or incentive guests may require upgraded accommodation that adds value to the overall programme.

From practical rooms for city breaks and business trips to premium rooms and distinctive suites, the hotel wants to provide different ways of experiencing the same horizon.

A Mediterranean rhythm throughout the day

Hotel Amic Horizonte has its own rhythm.

It begins with the first light over the Bay of Palma.

It continues through breakfast, meetings, city exploration, pool time, cultural discoveries and conversations on the terrace.

Later, the colours change and the hotel enters its golden-hour atmosphere.

At night, Palma’s lights reflect across the port.

This natural rhythm is increasingly important to the hotel’s identity.

The goal is not to fill every minute with organised entertainment. It is to create the right setting for different moments to happen naturally.

Morning may be associated with yoga, breakfast, work or a walk.

Midday may bring meetings, lunch, swimming or a visit to Palma.

Afternoon may offer relaxation, art or time on the terrace.

Evening may become a moment for cocktails, gastronomy, music, conversation or simply watching the city below.

This is part of the Mediterranean lifestyle that visitors search for when choosing a hotel in Mallorca.

It is also something local residents recognise immediately: the importance of light, open space, food, conversation, sea views and time shared with others.

The team behind the new Hotel Amic Horizonte

Buildings do not create hospitality by themselves.

Teams do.

The new stage of Hotel Amic Horizonte is being developed through the work of a team led by Maribel, with a focus on spaces, details, service culture, guest experience and the everyday life of the hotel.

This leadership is important because a renovation only becomes meaningful when the people inside the hotel understand and embody it.

New furniture cannot create warmth.

Technology cannot create genuine care.

A terrace cannot create atmosphere without the people who welcome guests there.

The hotel’s transformation therefore also involves internal culture: how teams communicate, how they receive guests, how they respond to changing needs and how every department contributes to the overall experience.

The aim is to create a hotel where employees understand not only what they do, but why they do it.

That “why” is connected to hospitality, pride, Palma and continuity.

A hotel culture is built through hundreds of small daily actions:

A genuine welcome
A helpful recommendation
A room prepared with care
A problem resolved with empathy
A meeting organised precisely
An artist received respectfully
A returning guest recognised
A terrace prepared before sunrise
A team working together behind the scenes

This is why creating culture also means creating connections.

Connections among team members.

Connections with guests.

Connections with companies.

Connections with Palma.

Twenty-seven years learning from the Horizonte

The relationship with Hotel Amic Horizonte began 27 years ago.

That period has provided lessons that cannot be learned through a manual or management course alone.

The hotel already had a character, a history and a way of relating to Palma.

The first responsibility was to listen.

To learn from the people who worked there.

To understand the expectations of returning guests.

To recognise the value of the view, the location and the atmosphere.

To discover what should change and what should never be lost.

After 27 years, the central question is not how to replace the identity of Hotel Amic Horizonte.

It is how to protect that identity while making it relevant for a new generation of travellers, companies and residents.

The elements to preserve are clear:

Human hospitality
Proximity
Flexibility
The connection with Palma
The views over the Bay of Palma
The character of the team
The feeling of a recognisable hotel
The desire to welcome people back

The elements to transform are also clear:

The use of spaces
The corporate and MICE proposition
Technology
Cultural programming
Wellbeing experiences
Communication
Room concepts
Connections with residents and local organisations
The way the hotel tells its own story

The challenge is to move forward without losing what made the hotel worth returning to in the first place.

“I’ll Come Back”: the emotion behind the new story

Every hotel hopes guests will leave satisfied.

But the most meaningful sign of success is when somebody wants to return.

Return to the view.

Return to the room.

Return to Palma.

Return to a conversation.

Return to a feeling.

This idea is reflected in the emotional concept of “Volveré”—“I’ll Come Back.”

It is more than a phrase and more than a song.

It expresses the relationship Hotel Amic Horizonte wants to create with its guests and communities.

A tourist may return for another holiday.

A company may return for its next meeting.

An artist may return with a new project.

A Palma resident may return for another cultural event.

A former employee may return to visit.

A couple may return to remember a special moment.

The true value of hospitality is not measured only by occupancy or transactions. It can also be measured by emotional continuity.

When somebody says, “I will come back,” it means the hotel has become part of their personal geography.

That is the feeling Hotel Amic Horizonte wants to protect.

Who is Hotel Amic Horizonte for?

The new Hotel Amic Horizonte is not designed for only one type of traveller.

Its diversity is part of its identity.

International visitors to Palma

Travellers from across Europe and the rest of the world can use the hotel as a base for exploring Palma and Mallorca.

Couples and Mediterranean city-break travellers

Sea views, terraces, special suites and proximity to Palma make the hotel suitable for romantic stays and short breaks.

Business travellers

Corporate guests can combine accommodation, connectivity, work facilities and easy access to Palma.

Companies and incentive groups

Organisations can bring together meetings, accommodation, gastronomy and experiences within the same property.

Cruise passengers

The location near the Port of Palma makes the hotel relevant for stays before or after Mediterranean cruises.

Sports groups

Golf, cycling, swimming, running and other specialist groups can use the hotel as a base in Palma.

Long-stay guests

During the quieter months, Palma provides an attractive environment for longer stays, remote work and extended city experiences.

Residents of Palma and Mallorca

Local audiences can engage with art, professional communities, wellbeing activities, cultural events and social initiatives.

Artists, speakers and educators

The hotel can provide a setting for exhibitions, talks, training programmes and creative encounters.

Hotel Amic Horizonte does not want to become a hotel for a single segment.

It wants to be a hotel for different moments.

What makes Hotel Amic Horizonte different from other hotels in Palma?

Palma has an extensive and varied hotel offering, from historic boutique properties to urban business hotels and luxury seafront accommodation.

Hotel Amic Horizonte’s identity is based on a particular combination:

Panoramic views over the Bay of Palma
A location near the Port of Palma and Porto Pi
A significant accommodation capacity
Flexible meeting and event spaces
A personal and approachable culture
Terraces and outdoor areas
MICE and incentive potential
Horizon The Gallery
Toastmasters and learning communities
Yoga and wellbeing experiences
Special suites
A commitment to local events
A long relationship with Palma
A desire to remain open to residents as well as travellers

Any one of these elements may exist elsewhere.

The difference lies in bringing them together within a single, recognisable hotel identity.

Hotel Amic Horizonte is not trying to be the newest building in Palma.

It is trying to become the most authentic and relevant version of itself.

The future: renewing without erasing

The transformation of Hotel Amic Horizonte will continue in stages.

A hotel is never completely finished because hospitality constantly evolves.

Guest expectations change.

Technology develops.

Companies discover new ways of meeting.

Cities change.

New communities appear.

The challenge is to evolve with them while maintaining a clear sense of identity.

Future priorities will continue to focus on areas that improve the guest experience, strengthen the working environment for the team and create new connections with Palma.

Rather than announcing change for the sake of change, Hotel Amic Horizonte wants every new project to answer a practical question:

Does this make the hotel more useful, more human, more memorable or more connected?

If the answer is yes, it belongs within the new stage.

This may involve further improvements to rooms, corporate facilities, common areas, sustainability, technology, cultural programming, wellbeing and the way different audiences use the hotel.

The process is progressive, but the direction is already clear.

A hotel of Palma, for Palma and open to the world

Hotel Amic Horizonte is deeply connected to its location.

It is a hotel in Palma de Mallorca.

It overlooks the Bay of Palma.

It forms part of the Porto Pi and Bonanova area.

It receives travellers arriving by air and sea.

It hosts people visiting Mallorca for holidays, work, sport, art, culture and meetings.

But its identity goes beyond geography.

To be faithful to Palma means understanding the city as a living place, not simply a tourism product.

It means respecting its residents.

Supporting local culture.

Creating year-round activity.

Working with local professionals.

Welcoming international visitors without losing local character.

Contributing to the city rather than remaining disconnected from it.

The hotel’s ambition is therefore both local and international.

It wants Palma residents to recognise it as part of their city.

It wants companies to recognise it as a flexible place to meet.

It wants artists to see it as a possible platform.

It wants international guests to discover a more personal perspective on Palma.

And it wants returning guests to feel that the Horizonte they remember is still there—renewed, more open and looking forward.
