The Island is always filled with places and habits to discover, but Pollensa and Alcudia are a nice place to start at. Our villas in Pollensa are built to help you discover the best places in North of Majorca, both the most crowded both the quiet ones, those you can only arrive at walking. But first, let’s divide it to explain it better:
Things to do in Pollensa
If you’re looking for things to do in Pollensa, we’ll love to guide you on your tour. Even though it’s a coaster zone and has some of the most incredible views you have ever seen, it’s also mandatory to visit:
- In this cute and rural town we’ll find amazing architectonical monuments just as the Mare de Déu dels Àngels church which was built in the XIII century, the small church in El Calvari next to its 365 stairway (which represents The Passion of the Christ, one year per step) or the Roman Bridge, besides many locals that’ll be glad to help you to discover their culture.
- Porto Pollensa. A long beach made by one thousand meters of sand and accompanied by the shadows of the pines, creates one of the most touristic and well-kept places in the north of Majorca. Along its path you’ll find different zones: from the Port of Pollensa, where you’ll be able to relax, to the restaurants zone where you’ll be able to enjoy lovely views drinking coffee o melting with one of the famous Porto Pollensa ice creams.
- Formentor is the peninsula located in the north of Majorca, an amazing spot where you can see the most breathtaking cliffs at the same time than the softest and whitest sand. All around the Peninsula we’ll fin hidden “calas” (small beaches) which are considered truly natural gifts from earth such as: Cala Murta or Cala Figuera. Those small paradises require a bit of a walk, but totally worth it.
- Cala Sant Vicenç. Cala Sant Vicenç is the union of four different beaches, each one of them totally different from the other, that will provide you of an amazing experience. Their crystal waters filled with all kind of Mediterranean fauna will give you the chance to get to know the essence of the Mediterranean Sea besides from being one of the most adored places by the ornithologists from all around the world. Just lay on its soft sand and rest.

Villas in Alcudia to discover the most historical Majorca
Alcudia is one of the towns with more history in Majorca, not cause it’s one of the oldest, but perhaps cause’ due to its good location it was one of the most attacked towns and a very important sea connection around all the Mediterranean Sea.
Things to do in Alcudia
- One of the most important buildings we’ll find in Alcudia is its well-kept Wall, which you can visit and see the whole town from above. The Wall was built by the King Jaume III by the ends of the XIII century to protect town from the mentioned attacks and has been kept til’ today as an architectonic masterpiece that represents Alcudia and its culture.
- The ancient Roman town of Pollentia was built in the 1stcentury and in it we’ll find a Forum and a theatre, even a residential zone that’ll take us to those ancient times from whose we only have some ruins left. All has to be said… amazing ruins!
- Sa Bassa Blanca museum. This museum opened its doors in 1993 and shines not just because it’s filled with amazing works of art, but also due to its wonderful architecture designed by Hassan Fathy. In it we’ll be able to find a permanent exposition along others that are temporary.
Alcudia Port, Alcanada and Es Mal Pas
Alcudia goes beyond its town, it has plenty other magical places we can and must discover, such as:
- Alcudia Port. Currently known as one of the main tourist destinations by families, Alcudia Port brings us hundreds of meters of clear sand and pines, besides turquoise waters. A few meters have to be walked in if we want the water to cover our legs, which makes it great for kids.
- This cute residential zone is usually visited by locals that know of it and visit it as a refuge from the big beaches. Its beach, made by rocks and crystal water, invites us to relax or take a walk and go swimming or walking until the lighthouse that’s located in a small island in front of the beach.
- Es Mal Pas, Manresa and Bonaire. The residential area of Alcudia can be found on the north of Majorca and, eventhough it’s true that many locals live there, it’s one of the quietest areas in Alcudia. There we’ll find sand and rock beaches, an idyllic place for those who want to leave the crowded spots.
