Viva Blue

Planning a holiday to Majorca that combines excellent family-friendly facilities with easy access to the beach and some of the island’s most alluring natural scenery? Viva Blue & Spa is just the spot. 

If you’re visiting with little ones, it’s a fantastic choice thanks to the fun-packed activities on offer at the mini club, along with the children’s pool and pirate ship and the outdoor play area. Speaking of swimming pools, there are five in total throughout the complex, including a semi-Olympic pool, an indoor pool (heated in winter) and an adults-only quiet pool. The soft, golden sand of Playa de Muro is just a few steps away, so if you prefer to swim in the sea and sunbathe on the beach, this is a prime place to do so. 

The Balneum Spa is the ultimate relaxation zone, featuring a sauna, a Jacuzzi, a Turkish bath, sensation showers, and an extensive menu of massages and skin treatments that use natural and local beauty products for a truly reinvigorating experience. 

This area of Majorca is particularly renowned for its hiking and cycling routes, so if you’re keen to explore the island’s beautiful landscapes, this hotel makes a great base – with the S’Albufera Natural Park (a protected wetlands nature reserve) just a few minutes away. There’s also a well-equipped gym and a multi-sports court on-site, making this a sports lover’s haven.

You’ll eat well, too, with the Caprice restaurant offering a diverse range of buffet dishes to satisfy all tastes, including regular themed nights and plenty of dishes created specifically for children. El Patio Restaurant and Bar is an ideal spot for drinks and snacks during the day, and it morphs into an à la carte grill restaurant later on. There’s also the poolside bar and bistro, La Palapa, and the Sweet Corner, where you can pick up tasty treats such as ice creams, milkshakes and cakes. 

As the apartments here each come with their own kitchenette, you’ll also have the freedom to cook in if you like – made even easier by the on-site supermarket.
