Universal Hotel Romantica
All Inclusive
7 nights
London Luton Airport
Sant Jordi, Majorca, Spain
Situated on Majorca’s low-key south coast, the Universal Hotel Romantica is a traditional Spanish retreat within footsteps of the sea. It’s an ideal setting for lovers of peace and quiet, with salt marshes just inland, creating opportunities for birdwatching and nature walks. After enjoying a relaxing day by the pool or on the beachside deck, you can walk into the small local town of Colonia de San Jordi – it’s fronted by a pretty harbour complete with lighthouse and a few cafés and bars. Although the hotel is currently three-star, an extensive four-star refurbishment is due to get underway in winter 2024.

Location
Colonia de Sant Jordi is located close to the southernmost tip of Majorca, just a 45-minute drive southeast of Palma de Mallorca Airport. It’s a typical Spanish fishing village that’s grown to accommodate visitors but has largely maintained its seaside charm, especially around the harbour and lighthouse. Beaches, such as Platja Estanys and Es Trenc, are renowned for their calm and clear shallow waters as well as soft sand dunes backed by shrubs and coastal pines. Both are popular with runners and walkers. Head ...
Customers that travelled to the Universal Romantica will be delighted to hear that we will feature the hotel again from 2025, and that it will be upgraded to a four-star hotel. Colonia itself has always been rated highly by our customers and has great opportunities for special interest holidays – particularly birdwatching and walking – that we will launch a little later in the year. The Es Trenc beach must be one of the finest in Spain, and for walkers and joggers, like myself, it offers endless miles of beautiful coastal scenery to explore, with a nature reserve inland. There's an attractive marina, and with Palma only 40 minutes away by bus, Colonia is quite convenient for exploring the island's impressive capital.

Island Tour
1 / 3
Today we’ll travel from the capital, Palma, to the picture-postcard town of Sóller situated just inland from the untouched north coast. We’ll be riding onboard an iconic 100-year-old wooden train that provides a breathtaking journey through the mountainous Majorcan countryside. It’s a great chance to see the UNESCO-listed Serra de Tramuntana as you ride the rails through the mountains. On arrival in Sóller, we’ll catch a tram to Puerto de Sóller on the coast. It’s here we’ll enjoy a one-hour boat cruise to Sa Calobra and the wonderful Torrent de Pareis canyons. Make the most of the sunshine and glorious Balearic blue hues, and don’t forget your towel and bathers if you fancy a swim. Following the boat trip, we’ll drive around the winding mountain roads and enjoy some scenic stops to take more snaps of the surrounding Serra scenery before heading back to the hotel.
Palma including Cathedral tour
1 / 3
Today we’ll visit the Mallorca capital, Palma, for a guided sightseeing tour. Starting from the Parque del Mar, we’ll visit L'Hort del Rei (the King’s orchard) gardens, housed within the walls of the Almudaina Palace. It’s a lovely, shaded space with sculptures, pergolas, and fountains to be found off cypress tree lined footpaths. We’ll also pop into the palace museum and cathedral to find out more about this 14th century royal residence and the lifestyles of inhabitants past and present. Once the tour has completed, you’re free to roam in your own time. The Mercado del Olivar is a must for foodies with lots of local delicacies to try and buy. If you’re after some retail therapy, head to the high-end boutiques on Calle Jaime III or walk the pedestrianised La Rambla for flower stands, tapas bars, and alfresco café culture.
Caves of Drach
1 / 3
Today’s excursion combines a classical music recital with one of the largest subterranean lakes on the planet. It’s the perfect excuse to see more of Mallorca as we head inland and enjoy an hour’s drive to Porto Cristo on the central east coast. On arrival at the Cuevas del Drach, we’ll journey underground and experience the stunning array of natural rock formations including some stunning stalactites and stalagmites. All of the strange-looking features are flood-lit which not only shows them in more detail but also creates elongated shadows against the echoing chambers of the cave. After a guided tour, we’ll take our places as the small orchestra begins to play. It’s an unforgettable experience and made all the more enjoyable thanks to the underground acoustics and sci-fi-like surroundings.
