Beginnings

OUR BEGINNINGS

It was the 1950s. A 14-year-old boy named Juan Llull Juan took his first steps in the working world by selling vegetables. His work was persistent, but at the same time, illuminated by an innate business vision.

In just over three years, this young man went from having one truck to owning four. His fighting spirit led him to diversify his businesses, and at 24, he decided to direct his professional path toward construction

Soon after, he invested in three hotels: Castell de Mar, Playa del Moro, and Don Juan with several partners. In 1970, a dream came true. Juan Llull Juan opened his first tourist establishment as the sole owner: the Hipocampo hotel. From that moment, the family began to grow under the guidance of Don Juan, always supported by his wife, Doña Mª Dolores Sánchez.
