Richard Branson Is Opening His Next Luxury Hotel In Spain

Sir Richard Branson is set to open the Son Bunyola Hotel, part of of the Virgin Limited Edition which currently oversees seven high-end retreats across the globe.

The Son Bunyola Hotel is located amid Mallorca's spectacular Serra de Tramuntana mountains and is part of the 810 acre Son Bunyola Estate, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The hotel itself is based around an existing finca (a traditional farming manor) that dates back to the 15th century and will comprise 28 rooms, two restaurants, dining terraces, lounges and a swimming pool.

“The northwest coast of Mallorca has always been a very special place for Sir Richard Branson and Virgin Limited Edition,” Jon Brown, managing director of Virgin Limited Edition, said in a statement. “We are absolutely thrilled to have the opportunity to restore this beautiful monument and honor its rich history, and look forward to welcoming another small luxury hotel to our portfolio—not least inviting guests across the globe to discover this unspoiled corner of the world.”

Son Bunyola Estate will be Virgin Limited Edition’s first venture in Spain. The group’s other retreats include Morocco’s Kasbah Tamadot and the Caribbean’s Moskito and Necker Islands—the latter of which Branson calls home.

Reservations for Son Bunyola Estate’s hotel will open later this year.
