Hostal Colonial

Southern Mallorca


Just 50m from the beach lies this sweet and simple family-run hotel, dating to 1948. Its handful of tidy, modern rooms and apartments are done out in crisp blues and whites and come with small balconies or terraces. It also has a famed gelateria, and bikes are available for guests.
