  • In this video, I walk with Kevin, The Scotsman in Tenerife and ask him about his impressions of Santa Ponsa as a long-term visitor to the area. Has he noticed some big changes in the resort over the years?
    Also, I take a look into the recreation area of the new Whala Isabella hotel following its refurbishment and recent opening!

    My first trip to Mallorca is coming up in a couple of weeks, and I just wanted to thank you for your videos of Santa Ponsa (where I'll be staying) and Palma! I've binge watched them all and am so excited! Thank you for the work you put into your videos Alex! ❤

    I think day and night all over Mallorca is very quiet ,apart from Sunday when the locals go the beach.pricing of sunbeds etc,protests and cost of living it's as though the council are doing everything they can to not want people to come,that's how it looks to me which is a shame.its definitely know where like it was few years ago hope it improves because it ends up like faliraki ....dead.

    I think Kevin is the go to expert on bars and live entertainment. Yes and buy a drink at a bar in Cyprus or Turkey and the beach beds are free. Thanks Alex.

    McTavish's and Jaggy Thistle are my favourite bars in SP, excellent entertainment and decent prices.🍺😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    It's the same in Crete with the sunbeds,but a drink or food at a beach bar and the sunbeds are free

  • @littlehiya9763

    Hi Alex,
    We are planning to visit Alcudia this June. Your video helped us a lot to plan. Do we need to book sunbeds in advance on the beach?
    Thanks

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun
      @MallorcaUnderTheSun  Před měsícem

      You don't - There are LOTS of sunbeds - although I'll bring an update from there again soon... You can only book them in 4 day blocks..

  • @rachelwilson6152

    Hi Alex. We are staying at the BQ Belvedere in Cala Millor. Do you know of any local bars or restaurants close to the hotel? The staff don't know anywhere. Thanks ❤ x

  • @edinburgerben3216
    @edinburgerben3216 Před měsícem +1

    Ye it's €6.50 for sunbed rental per day then more for an umbrella. Hence we took our own towels 😂😂
    Nepenta was a great cafe. Shout out to Mactavishes Scottish themed and run. Hibs,Celtic and other strips on wall, tenants top on draught. Though dont wear any blue if you cant help it. Celtic fans will abuse you by default

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun
      @MallorcaUnderTheSun  Před měsícem

      Stay on the side of the resort we started this video, away from the strip area... It's such a huge resort, and see my other content. Lots of nice restaurants on the east side.

    Booked into the Flamboyan at Magaluf for a week, got kicked out 2 days later to another hotel as they were closing down for the season, not impressed, they should have told us when we booked up.

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun
      @MallorcaUnderTheSun  Před měsícem

      Oh that's rubbish... don't even get me started on October here on the island...

  • @BK73_
    @BK73_ Před měsícem

    Can you find out why the sun beds have been moved so far inwards on the east side

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun
      @MallorcaUnderTheSun  Před měsícem +1

      Probably to make room to leave a sunbed free zone

    • @BK73_
      @BK73_ Před měsícem

      We’ve been coming to Santa ponsa for the last 9 years, that’s the furthest over the beds have been. They’re also under the trees where the local families sit at night and at weekends.

    I don't like Santa Ponsa, although the beach is beautiful. I think the resort reminds me of Blackpool. I much prefer Palma Nova.
