Hi Alex. Great video. This is where I fell in love with Mallorca. I've stayed in Don Pedro, Hoposa Niu and Simar. Can recommend all of them. The views are wonderful. During the day you can get yachts anchoring in the bay and the occupants using the various restaurants. I think the beach furniture will be installed at the same time as the beaches in Puerto Pollensa as it is the same council. Made my weekend watching this. Best wishes, John
The same place I fell in love with Majorca 15 years ago
Don pedro was our first holiday in Majorca
We’ve been going back 3-5 times a year since
All over Majorca back in June to palmanova July again to palmanova then again to Porto pollence in August 😎
Alex, I can’t get over the natural beauty of this place. AMAZING! 💝💖💝💖😘😘 Thank you for sharing. It will be on my “to do” list when I visit. 🌟
Nice one Alex as usual ...
Another great video Alex. The water looks amazing such a beautiful colour. Keep up the good work. I can see how much effort you put into making them. And they are always a pleasure to watch x
Thank you - it's loads of effort and I know this video will have cost more to make and edit time wise, but I know many viewers have been wanting to see this resort properly for ages!
Wir hatten die Wohnung neben dem cal Patro Restaurant mit dem Strohdach . Es war Himmlisch 😊
Cala Carbo looks particularly stunning, great video, thanks Alex.
Lovely part of Majorca. Thanks for such a nice video.
Hi Alex 👋 that place is beautiful 😍 so clean u take take us to wonderful scenery 😎👍👋
What a beautiful stunning area, thanks for sharing 👍
Brilliant video. I started watching Mallorca Under the Sun via the macmaster. What you are doing is such a great idea. And you do it so well. Your expert knowledge and clear love of where you live (except for impolite cyclists!) shine through. Plus you have great video skills, and the relaxed way you present mean that I'm watching all your videos even though I've never been to Mallorca. Thank you for all your hard work!
Laid down on that beach in January a few years back Alex, ......yep , had the resort to ourselves and that was so peaceful. 👍
Fantastic Video. Well Done.
Es hermoso el colo del agua !
Great video again Alex I stayed at don pedro back in 2007 I met June Brown(Dot Cotton from eastenders ) on Cala Barques I couldn’t believe she was sat there next to me! I love Cala San Vincente
I love CSV! One of my favourite places ever! Cala Barques did have sunbeds and umbrellas
Nice place to visit
Very informative! We were told by the lovely guys at Swing restaurant that the licences won’t be granted until June , for La Roca and beach chairs ! Last year there were beach chairs at Calle Barques as well ( and from May onwards) . Such a shame as made life easier with kids and older people.
That's quite a wait, and also such a shame.
Yes will definitely miss the beach bar for sure. That's such a shame! 😔
Sunny das , greets from El Campello
Thank you for your efforts, Alex. Im checking your updates everyday. Ive spoken to TUI over the weekend regarding the proposed protests at Palma airport. They said theyll know more over the next 3 weeks or so. They have given us the options of cancelling or they would swop our holiday for a similar holiday elsewhere. At the moment we are staying with Majorca pending any developments. We fly on the 6th July. Keep up the great work.
I've just published a video about this. I hope it helps. I'll be keeping up with what's going on here too...
We always stay in Port de Pollensa, but we always come for the day to Cala San Vicenc. Usually we walk over the mountain and take the bus back. I wouldn't walk in high summer, but as we come in Spring and Autumn the temperatures are usually fine for walking. It's a great day out. We'll be doing it again next week!
Have a fantastic trip and what a brilliant CZcams username 🤩
Hi Alex I stayed in the hotel Molins many years ago for a week, was working as a nanny so didn’t get much time off, but when I did I was in the sea and a huge wave tried to suck me out, thank goodness I was a very good swimmer and didn’t panic. Still enjoyed myself though. ❤️
We love La Cala. Visit all the time when we're over! The most crystal clear water!!
Great video again Alex. Do you have any videos which cover the evenings in these quieter resorts, please?
Lovely sea views, I suppose you pay extra for the exclusivity and location, but really nice. Thanks Alex.
Alex did you know cilla black used to have a villa in Cala san Vicente
And Bradley wiggins lives there also 😉
I've heard about Bradley, but I didn't know Cilla had a place here!
And you can walk there from Porto Pollensa. Bit of a trek but makes for a great day.
Cala Barques did have sunbed hire last summer (2023). Hotel NUI lovely and food excellent. Life guards do whistle if folks stray too far out in height of the season.
Yes a very up and down resort. Stayed at Don Pedro and upgraded to All inclusive when I realised bars and restaurants weren't in abundance. I stayed in an anexe which took a while to get to round beach and up steps. The wild goats passed through the grounds which was entertaining. Impressive cliffs surround the bay.
CSV is an amazing village. Lovely restaurants, much quieter than it used to be. But all the restaurants are locally run and the food is beautiful. People if not staying there should go for a day ❤
Very true!
I would love to see you do some restaurant reviews around Mallorca,but obviously not fish and chips please 😅..oh and happy Sunday to you hope you're having a lovely day 👍
Sure I'll get round to doing some more!
i've stayed in hotel simar 3 times over the last 10 years, which is lovely, but i find san vicente a bit too quiet, its great for a day out, but theres not much to do.puerto pollensa, just 5 miles away has much more to do.also ive walked from san vicente to puerto pollensa over the mountain, it was lovely takes about 1 hour 🙂
Thank you Alex for your daily updates. Beautiful island but I don't think I can stay there long term. Somehow it lacks ambience and historic sites, unless you are a snorkeler.
Alcudia and Pollensa are nearby though, and just a bus journey away ! I guess it provides a great beach break
I think Cala San Vincente is quite different from most resorts in Mallorca and not to everyone’s taste….we booked the Don Pedro a few years back and it was very run down…..hopefully it’s been upgraded since then…..we ended up moving to Cala Vinas in the Calvia district…..which I think is on a different level….a stunning bay. Thanks for another interesting vlog Alex👍
Watched your video and decided to visit from Alcudia. There were no toilets at all they had them but they were all locked up. A local shop owner told us to complain at the tourist information. Is this not what we pay tourist tax for, facilities??
It was beautiful though. Glad we went.
Very nice video - thanks. How hot is it at the moment?
I'm sure I saw some sunbeds and umbrellas after you showed us the restaurant menu Alex?
They belonged to the accommodation to the left I believe
Loverly coast
Quiet - my favourite word. Nice option for a stay and at least the Globales Don Pedro is 18+ Also, good to hear about the walking trails in the area 👍
Okay - We returned from Majorca two weeks ago staying in Puerto Pollensa as we always do. For the very first time we feel let down by the process of licensing by local councils. Like it or not tourism is its main source of income on the island and lots depend on it from hire cars to restaurants and many other outlets. I have a feeling some may feel disappointed if its not sorted quickly. I mentioned in a previous post that we travel to PP each year for our anniversary and this is the first time the beds havent been on the beach in May. Also, we were really sad to learn that the family who run the Cal Patro restaurant in Cala San Vicente have left - only the chef remains...a sad loss. This will be interesting because we normally travel twice a year, next time being September and if things remain as confussed as they are right now we may need to reconsider 😞
I really appreciate your opinion on this and it's very true. I've just commented on another comment, and I may not be correct here, but the livelihoods of the people in power don't depend on Tourism... different story for the rest of us though.
It astonishes me that those issues with sunbeds/ beach umbrellas and licensing in general haven’t been resolved before high season on an island relying heavily on summer tourism, and the comfort and facilities for their visitors which will entice them to return. Personally, I am not a lounging on the beach person, and beautiful Majorca has much more to offer than that, , but still ….
Check out my latest upload for info as to possibly why
❤
👏👏
Hi Alex...can't understand why the authorities are making places less desirable to go to with beach bars going and lack of sunbeds....some people over here have said we just won't go there....surely tourism is the main source of income on the islands...why bite the hand that feeds you
Sadly, I hear you, and I could be wrong, the livelihoods of the people in power don't depend on Tourism... different story for the rest of us though.
I pronounce it the same as you Alex 😂
I fell in Love with Majorca 45 years ago after travelling around resorts and staying in many I finely settled wit Puerto Pollensa were we say its our spiritual home I have never been captured with the beauty of a place like PP and Majorca in general its undoubtedly the Pearl of the Med ,but the way the Island has and still is being run by inept local government ,to go in to a summer season and not to have any Imenaties on the beaches of some big a some small resorts and some half done is unforgivable to let red tape and in my opinion greed ruin holidays of people who are paying premium prices compered to other parts of Spain ,not building affordable housing for the indigenous population thus making it difficult to hire staff to work in the resorts and God knows were this tourist tax is being spent ,they are ruining this beautiful place and tourists will go elsewhere in the future if you cant even find a toilet on the beach ,they should be ashamed of themselves for thinking we can get away with anything because they cant stay away they Love it ,mmmmmm don't be to sure about that thers a breaking point for everyone so pull your fingers out and try harder plese
Absolutely love Cala Molins; been there many times on short visits. However, with no café/service, are there any public toilets if you come over for the day?
There was a block on the beach - I should've checked if it was open. Failing that, use the restaurants or sneak into the hotel receptions (which is what I usually do!)
@@MallorcaUnderTheSunThank you Alex, good advice 😊
2:20 Google Earth shows they have sunbeds but not sure if they still do now
No sunbeds on Friday on the actual beach...the sunbeds you can see belong to the accommodation behind and are for guests use only.
@@MallorcaUnderTheSun ah ok fair enough
Hello, how is the current mosquito situation in malorca ? Do I need repellent ?
See my last but one video update from Puerto Pollensa... always bring protection
The licensing laws seem a bit crazy as far as beach bars and sunbeds goes..maybe id have to pack my beach barbecue Alex. Knew it would come in handy.🍖
thank you alex it look likes spain now no pommie flags and fish and chip signs
Subscribers still trending up without the help of you know who😂😂
Our friendly cyclists really 😂
