Sa Creu Nova Petit Palais Art & Spa

Hotel is 20 minutes from the airport located in a small quaint town with no direct beach access. So you will need to rent a car if you want to go to the beach. Most beaches are 20–60 minutes away, but parking can be difficult for the beach depending where you go. There is street parking and only a handful of times did we struggle. Initial impression was odd as it looks like a storefront rather than a hotel but you enter the lobby and immediately transported into this wonderfully decorated spa resort. Everything about the small resort makes you feel at peace and calm. They have a small pool (I thought it was much larger based on the pictures) and a small sitting area. Many rooms have their own sun loungers overlooking the courtyard but given it’s landlocked it gets very hot in the summer and it’s unbearable to lay out for long periods of time. The rooms itself are well decorated and large. The room I stayed and had a small living room room with two chairs and a TV. The room has every amenity you can need. Great hair, dryer, bath, robes, slippers, extra toilet paper, spoons for tea and coffee. They even gave you a beach tote with separate beach towels, which get replenished daily. They really put a lot of thought into decorating the rooms. During the summer, it may be tough to use the spa which you can rent for an hour at a time and it’s nice to have the entire facility to yourself. They have a Turkish bath, hot tubs, steam room, etc. We were able to use it on a cooler day when it rained and it was lovely, but in the summer it may be tolerable due to the weather and lack of air conditioning. From start to finish the staff were incredible and really went above and beyond to help make her stay comfortable. They also have free beach umbrellas to rent if you’re going to the beach Breakfast was fantastic with an excellent spread and a large selection of hot food that you can order. Overall, this was a wonderful hotel and well priced for what you received. The major pros are the staff, spa and quiet serene landscape. This isn’t a big tourist town. If you’re looking for a hotel on the beach with ocean views, this is not for you. The drives can be long and then you have to park and walk along distance, depending where you go. If you’re looking for a tranquil, peaceful, spa vacation, and don’t mind driving this is a wonderful hotel to choose.
