Latest reviews on Son Banya's beaches

Illetes Beach
3 Laura Holden

We came here July 2023. Nice enough small beach surrounded by "exclusive" hotels. Definitely not "senior friendly" as you have a short fairly steep hill and a number of stone steps to negotiate. It was extremely busy with children and adults. The main issue we had was that you cannot use ANY of the sunbeds on the beach unless you pre book the day before. They were also 40€ per person. Drinks etc from shop not bad cost wise. (You can use the less comfortable beds after 2pm if you're lucky enough to get one but will still have to pay the daily charge) If ur ok with a towel on a busy beach you will be happy with this beach. Probably quieter out of season of course. Just not for us!

Come early by bus 108 from Palma and take advantage of the pristine, shallow and crystal clear waters for a morning swim before the crowds arrive.

Playa de Palma

We've been here twice and absolutely love it. The hotel was great and the beach is really long with gorgeous golden fine sand. We can't wait to come back!

Playa de Illetes 2

The beach in Palma de Mallorca is easily accessible via local bus for only €2, making it the most convenient way to get to this stunning beach. The turquoise waters here are perfect for swimming and relaxation, making it the best beach in Palma de Mallorca.
