  • I have an update for you from Palmanova, but there seems to be a little confusion and clarification is needed.
    So in this video, I'll show you what’s new in Palmanova. I'll try and get answers to questions I have received regarding the sunbed situation.
    We check out the new chringuitos (beach bars), plus we visit the new beach bar which has just opened on Es Carregador beach which has replaced Can Blanc.
    Plus I have some great news of a welcome addition to Palmanova which has been much requested!
    Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

    Hi Alex, I spent a week in Port Soller. Wonderful people and a fantastic position in The Fergus hotel. Soller was everything you said it was. Will be visiting next year for sure. Many thanks for your accurate account regarding this beautiful village. 👍👍

    Hi Alex! Me and my family met you when you did your Magaluf walk around - we were staying at the Aluasun Torrenova! Just want to say, it was great to meet you in person after watching your videos for so long, you are just as great in real life as you are on camera. I did witness a poor man presumably drown on Son Matias beach while using an electric scooter with his partner. Fortunately he regained conciousness on the beach after being dragged to shore however an ambulance was called and it was very concerning for all around us.
    Keep up the good work - we have extreme holiday blues...

    Straight back to work from your holiday, great stuff Alex. Thanks for taking up the issue of half day/not half day loungers. The beach/sea view from the Zel hotel has been rather blocked by the chiringuito and the bali beds.

    Great update. CONFUSION over prices for sun beds. Glad to see the Can Blanc re opened, that was a quick turnaround. I hate those Bali beds, remember the stretch limousines for hire in the 90s they remind me of those, showey. Thanks Alex.

    Hi you are soo kind and informative thsnk you. We were there the middle week in June and we had to pay 20 Ur for the sun chairs for just 3 hours because the man said this is the price for any hours half day or full day same price which is a rip off because we could not be at the beech all day.
    The best restaurant there was the small Thai restaurant run by a very sweet couple and the food is amazing. 💐🙏🏽

    • @MallorcaUnderTheSun
      @MallorcaUnderTheSun  Před měsícem

    The ice creams from Gill are delicious and very welcomed when it’s so hot. I have to mention the beach side restaurant right next to where The ice cream place is . If you’re nearby please give it a go. The restaurant is brilliant, lovely food , good choice of food and it’s all very delicious. From lunch time bits to evening meals, the grilled sole is so good and the lunch time toastie, salads, burgers, jacket potatoes etc. very reasonably priced and the guys there work very hard. You can pop in for drinks only but I would book for an evening table as they get very busy.
