Puerto Pollensa

We go here several times a year as my parents have a house in the nearby town of Pollenca. 'The port' as it is sometimes known is very different from the old town and attracts a different clientele. Popular with young families, it is not as raucous as some of the coastal tourist haunts on the island. The beaches here are not the best in the area and can be very busy in high season but are still very pleasant. Walk along the Pine Walk to often quieter areas with some lovely cafes along the seafront. It should be noted that although the sea often looks very calm and safe, there have been quite a few drownings over the years. Stay is a ...  Read the complete review

I have been here twice, both times on a family holiday. My family has since visted here 3 more times. It is beautiful place. It takes about an hour to get there from Palma airport depending wether you have to wait for others to be dropped off first etc. The marina is absolutly stunning, from small fishing boats to very very expensive ships which are great fun to look at.

I would have to say I enjoyed the Flamenco Dancers and there was ...  Read the complete review

You just knew that after going to Spain for a week I would have to come back and write a review of where I stayed right away. So here I go. My mom and I decided to go on holiday after a disaster to France and a way to calm me down the week before I got my exam results. So off we went on a girly holiday to Puerto Pollensa or the Port of Pollensa. Now I’m only going to write this one review about my holiday so listen up. Location Puerto Pollensa is located in the northern region of Majorca. If any of you know of Alcudia, it’s about 5km from there. Not to be confused with Pollensa, which is a small old village a few km away from Puerto, this place is a haven ...  Read the complete review
