A break before the eclipse in Palma
The eclipse in Palma is set to change the way you see the afternoon. Nivia Born Boutique Hotel doesn’t promise a specific view of the event, but can certainly help you savour the run-up from a special vantage point: take a break on the rooftop, enjoy a cocktail, and feel just a little bit closer to the heavens before the eclipse begins in earnest.
The plan starts in advance. Before anyone gazes towards the horizon, before the city looks up, before the sky comes to dominate the conversation.
The eclipse: a time for calm contemplation

An eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, causing the light to change for a few minutes. But beyond the astronomical phenomenon itself, what makes it special is the anticipation: taking a moment to pause, look up and experience an afternoon like no other.
On 12 August 2026, Mallorca will experience the eclipse at sunset. In Palma, it is expected to begin at 19:38 and reach its peak at around 20:32, with the Sun already very low on the horizon. Its visibility will depend on the exact location, the view of the horizon and the prevailing atmospheric conditions.
Savour the anticipation from the rooftop

The rooftop at the Nivia Born Boutique Hotel invites you to enjoy the pre-eclipse at a leisurely pace: a cocktail, a view over Palma and just the right atmosphere to begin a unique afternoon.
It’s not about finding the best spot from which to observe the phenomenon. It’s all about savouring the moment, raising a glass to the anticipation, and letting everyone then decide for themselves how to spend the remaining afternoon.
Nivia Born: a pause before Palma looks heavenwards
Located in the centre of Palma, the Nivia Born Boutique Hotel offers a comfortable, well-appointed setting from which to start the afternoon, whilst remaining connected to the city. Everyone can then decide for themselves how to spend the remaining afternoon: look for an unobstructed viewing spot, have a stroll around the town centre, or simply let the afternoon unfold at its own pace.
Before the heavens speak
Before the sky heralds the eclipse, Nivia Born invites you to spend an afternoon savouring the anticipation: a cocktail, a view over Palma and a moment of peace designed for those who appreciate the finer things in life.
