I spent a few days at this hotel with my husband and daugher and the experience was simply perfect. The staff is extremely friendly, attentive, and always ready to help, making me feel truly welcome. The service is impeccable, with great attention to detail. Breakfast is rich and absolutely exceptional, offering a wide selection of fresh and delicious options. The view is breathtaking, and the beach is stunning, clean, and just steps away from the property. I can’t wait to come back!

Sometimes you just strike it right in every possible way! I wanted a comfortable luxury hotel on the beach but close to Palma for a short 5 day stay in Majorca. I chose the Nixe Palace, based on the photos and the reviews. The location was super important to me. What a great decision. The Nixe is old world luxury from another era. It has a piece of real estate one could only have from being parked there forever! It is grand and yet feels homey with no pretensions. There is even a little spot in the lobby to take or leave a book to read! With less than 140 rooms. It has the newly renovated right next to old world charm, It feels authentic. You never feel like you are in a sterile “hotel chain” that brags about being luxe but once you are there, the hotel just ends up disappointing you! SERVICE: Kind, wonderful people work here. The staff smiles and are people who care, making sure you have what you need. Not only that, it’s there in seconds! You ask for a bucket of ice, it appears! You need another towel, the door bell rings! It’s crazy. I have spend as much or more money on a room in Las Vegas and in Jamaica and did not get this kind of hospitality. Service is an art and the only way it really works is if the people are happy. The staff at this hotel feels like they are a family. It is very very well managed. MY ROOM: I stayed in room 406. An uber comfortable newly renovated room with a large terrance looking at the sea. The terrace has two full size sun lounges, and a small table and chairs for 4! Roomy and wonderful with adjustable awnings for sun or shade. The air conditioning system was magnificent, it was quiet and crisp. The mattress was firm and the bedding lovely. The room was beautiful. Two complimentary waters and coffee are replenished each day. Lovely toiletry amenities too. No noise what so ever in your room, you are assured to sleep well. THE BEACH & POOL: You are steps away from everything. No walking endlessly to enjoy yourself. The beach is public, but that’s no issue. Renting chairs and umbrellas are available. The pool area is beautiful. We were there during high season and getting a sun lounger is a job, but isn’t it always?! We always got one somewhere! The terraces have loungers and umbrellas set up facing the sea too! COMPLIMENTARY BREAKFAST: So much food to choose from it’s utterly beyond your dreams! In addition the kitchen will make you eggs any style! THE FOOD: Restaurants are excellent. THE LOCATION: Only 25-30 minutes from the airport. 12-15 minute taxi ride into Palma for approximately 10 Euros. The hotel calls taxi for you and you never wait more the 3-5 minutes! Taxi stands in Palma city will return you back just as easily. If you want a relaxed stay, with exceptional service and convenience this is the place! One of the best hotel experiences I have ever had and I am a traveler in my 60s. This Hotel is a gem. This Hotel is a gem.

A beautiful experience in a special location. I spent 5 special days with my family in this wonderful hotel. The sea is spectacular and the hotel's location is very good, a few minutes drive from the center of Palama de Mallorca. I had a room with a sea view, clean and good size. The only thing that could be improved would be the breakfast.

The position of the hotel is superb and the view from our sea view room was fabulous. The balcony was slightly enclosed so I would have preferred a more open one but then this would have been more expensive and I felt that I had paid more than enough for bed and breakfast. It was a good job I didn’t want a sunbed as even though there is a notice saying they can’t be reserved, by nine o’clock there was towels on every one of them with hardly any people. A problem that must be difficult for a hotel of this size. The aircon in the room was the most efficient and quietest I have ever had in a hotel and much needed as the temperature outside was the hottest I have ever encountered in Palma.Breakfast was a delight with plenty of selection I would only suggest that the tables were numbered so that when an order for hot food was taken the waitress’s would know where to bring it. Overall we had a lovely holiday
