For a few years now Puerto de Soller on Mallorca has been overlooked by a half-finished hotel. Now owned by an investment company, the Wingfield Corporation, work is due to begin on the complex once more. Wingfield aims for the hotel to be the finest not just on Mallorca – itself brimming with luxury establishments – but in Spain as a whole.
Of course, when you say 'luxury hotel' to most people, the first place they'll probably think of is the Burj al Arab in Dubai, that high-rise, sail-shaped structure rising out of the sea. That's the sort of standard that will be available at this hotel too, as it's due to be managed by the Jumeirah group, which also oversees the running at the Burj.
