Son Amar Dinner Show, one of my favourite nights out!
In over a half century, Son Amar has gone from a humble outdoor barbecue dinner with a hog roast, to the amazing 4000-capacity auditorium with the unforgettable power of light and sound that you see today.
Son Amar constantly improves and evolves. In the last few years, with the Whittaker family as owners, the changes have been dramatic - every season getting more colorful, more visual, with state-of-the-art light and sound that give Son Amar the reputation of rivaling the best shows in the world – Las Vegas in Mallorca!.
The free coach there and back leaves from outside the apartment!
