Son Marroig

As a wedding photographer, I can honestly say that Son Marroig is one of the most breathtaking venues in Mallorca. Perched on the cliffs between Valldemossa and Deià, it combines history, elegance, and one of the most iconic views on the island. The famous white temple overlooking the sea has become a landmark for Mallorca weddings – and it’s even more magical in real life. Many couples choose Son Marroig because of its unforgettable sunsets. A ceremony in the garden, with the ocean stretching endlessly behind, feels both romantic and cinematic. From a photographer’s perspective, the light here is extraordinary – soft, golden, and perfectly balanced by the dramatic backdrop of mountains and sea. Every moment becomes a picture you’ll want to frame. The venue has space for larger guest lists while still feeling intimate, and it’s flexible enough to host both outdoor and indoor celebrations. Most couples bring in their own catering, rentals, and décor, which makes the event fully customizable with the help of a wedding planner. This gives you the chance to create a wedding weekend that’s entirely your own while anchored in such a historic, timeless setting. If you’re dreaming of a destination wedding in Mallorca that feels luxurious, romantic, and truly unforgettable, Son Marroig is one of the best choices you can make.

We came across it on accident. We thought it was another close restaurant. We were leaving the view point and decided to go take a look. We paid for the museum and the views were breathtaking. I’ve seen it in a movie and I recognize it right away and I just wanted to stay at the viewpoint forever. We came mid day so there was not a lot of people since it was peak summer season. It is just magical to be at the white gazebo over looking the ocean.~

We had the honor of capturing a wedding at Son Marroig this past May, and it's truly one of the most breathtaking wedding venues we've ever worked at. The ceremony took place overlooking the sea, with the iconic marble pavilion glowing in the soft light - an absolute dream for any couple (and for photographers and filmmakers too!). The atmosphere is so peaceful and romantic, with panoramic views of the cliffs and ocean that create a feeling of total escape. The team managing the venue was organized and helpful, and everything ran smoothly throughout the day. As a photo and video team, we especially appreciated the natural beauty of the location - just the stunning Mallorcan coastline and timeless architecture. It's the kind of place that makes a wedding day feel like a scene from a movie. If you're dreaming of a magical Mediterranean setting for your wedding, Son Marroig is something truly special!

Son Marroig is simply magical. I attended a classical concert here and was absolutely enchanted by the atmosphere. The breathtaking view over the sea, the historic architecture, and the overall energy of the place make it truly unique. It’s the kind of location where you feel beauty and history come together in the most special way. A must-visit in Mallorca if you want to experience something unforgettable.

This place is just a divine. After being here, you will have no doubt why a member of the monarch family, the Habsburgs, chose this scenic spot for his house. You will be drawn by the nature. It's an informative, compact house-museum with accompanying explanations, real photos, etc. Decorated with freshly flowers...and I would say in such a heat it was a nice touch. Keep in mind that Luis Salvador wasn't a man of luxury like SiSi (so don't expect to see a Hofburg or Belvedere); he was a scientist, explorer, mariner, etc. He simply bought an old, ruined mansion and restored it. It's simple inside, but impressive outside with terraces and a chapel, and the views just breathtaking. All the belongings and furniture are well preserved and cared. An ancient sundial is on the wall of the building, dating from that time. Care to find? :) A beautiful, small, and well-maintained garden. Interesting fact: one of the houses that Luis Salvador bought for his "amante" in this area now belongs to and is run by Michael Douglas. Admission 1) Fair ticket prices. Adults 4 euros. 2) Children under 12 (if I am not mistaken) get free admission. The opening hours are very limited but accurately reflected by the owners on Google Maps. It's far from civilization and almost impossible to reach by bus. Only cars, bikes, or organized excursions. Parking is available even in summer very nearby.

What a beautiful place, the history of Archduke Lluis Salvador is very interesting and the house is fabulous. A great stop on a tour.

A must visit for the beautiful scenery and the quietness of this museum. We arrived at 15h40 giving us less than an hour before closing to explore, which was more than enough time. The garden was gorgeous and lets you feel at ease while hearing the waves from the sea

The House Museum of Son Marroig on Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Spain, is the former residence of Archduke Luis Salvado of Austria (1847-1915) with a collection of his personal possessions. A sweeping view of the northwest coast is obtained from the Des Galliner viewpoint here. The white marble Des Galliner rotunda dates from the late 19th century.
