Hotels in Cala Millor

Alcudia holidays have got everything you could possibly need for a fun-filled getaway in the sun. Located on the north coast of Majorca, it’s a popular resort with plenty of shops and restaurants to enjoy and a beautiful white-sand beach with a Blue Flag status. You can spend your days relaxing here, or making a splash at the action-packed Hidropark waterpark. But no holiday to Alcudia would be complete without exploring the bustling markets and ancient sites of its charming Old Town.

Things to do

Whether you’re soaking up the sun along toe-sinking sands while getting lost in a good book, or trying your hand at one of the many different watersports available, you’ll never be short of things to do. Or, stick with the water theme, if you’ve got the kids with you spend a day racing down the slides at Alcudia Waterpark or visiting Palma Aquarium.

Take time out to explore the medieval Old Town and discover all its timeless treasures, making sure to browse the local stalls and try the popular sobrasada spicy sausage. In the evenings, enjoy the buzz that builds around the marina as the bars and restaurants fill up, serving cocktails with sweeping sea vistas. 

Beautiful coast

Alcudia’s beach is incredibly long, stretching around an idyllic bay all the way to the resort of Ca’n Picafort. The calm, shallow water is perfect for families, while the peaceful area at Playa De Muro is made for quieter holidays to Alcudia. It’s here that you’ll find the piled-up sand dunes and salt water lagoons of S’Albufera Nature Reserve, which is a lovely place to go for a walk or sit and watch the birds.

History and culture

There’s lots of history in this part of Majorca, even right inside Alcudia. The walled Old Town dates back to the 14th century and it can feel like you’re walking back in time when you wander among the ancient churches and houses in its winding streets. There are also Roman ruins here, including a theatre and the remains of a town called Pollentia.

You’ll also find lots of heritage in Alcudia’s menus, from the traditional eateries in the atmospheric Old Town to the seafood restaurants along the marina in Puerto de Alcudia, serving local specialities, such as sea bass cooked in rock salt. 

Fun days out

You don’t have to look hard to find ways to spend your time during your holiday to Alcudia. Just outside the resort is Hidropark, jam-packed with wet and wild adventures. Do you dare take on its kamikaze slide, or is the wave pool more your scene? And there’s also a variety of boat trips available from Puerto de Alcudia, sailing along the northern coast of Majorca. You’ll stop at mysterious caves for a spot of snorkelling, kayak the Med and sunbathe on deck. Cycling is another must in this scenic hotspot when you want to venture off the beaten track into the countryside.

Although Majorca is well known for its purpose-built holiday resorts, Cala Bona is something different. Originally a small, fishing village, it’s grown to accommodate the demands from visitors and tourists, but retained most of its original charm and quirks. Away from the palm-fringed beach, you’ll find narrow, winding streets which might be a little challenging to drive through, but provide plenty of opportunity for discovering charming shops and cafés.

Cala Bona still has a working harbour and you’ll often see fishermen repairing their nets or preparing for a trip, aided by a cup of strong coffee, with a dash of brandy thrown in for good measure! With a harbour peppered with bobbing boats, excellent restaurants, and some superb shopping to be had, Cala Bona holidays are ideal for families and couples who really want to get away from it all.

Things to do

The waterfront is the heart of Majorca's Cala Bona resort. This is where you’ll find the beach and a lively promenade peppered with shops, bars and eateries. There’s also the opportunity to book a boat-trip to see the underwater side of Majorca. Glass-bottomed boats are immensely popular, giving you a chance to see what’s under the waves without getting wet! For golfing enthusiasts, there are four golf clubs nearby, with the nearest only around 15 minutes away from the town centre.

Just an hour away you’ll find Hidropark Alcudia, packed with rides, slides, and vast swimming pools. For family-friendly fun a little closer to home, enjoy an unforgettable wildlife experience at Safari Zoo in Sa Coma. 

Beautiful beach

When the sun’s shining, it’s hard to beat lazy days at the beach. The soft sand stretches for over a kilometre along the coast, perfect for finding a quiet spot or settling down on a sun lounger. Go swimming and snorkelling in the sea, or have a go at some of the water sports on offer. To get out of the midday heat, browse the shops that line the promenade, or sit down for a refreshing drink and bite to eat in one of the bars and restaurants.

Fun activities

There’s lots to do away from the beach, whether you want to go on a boat trip, try scuba diving or explore some of Majorca’s fascinating caves. Hire a car to go and visit some of the east coast’s pretty little fishing villages, or treat the kids to a fun-filled day at Alcudia’s water park, which is less than an hour’s drive away. If you’ve always wanted to go on a hot air balloon ride, you can do this in Cala
Bona too.

Great culture

Get involved with the town’s vibrant culture while you’re there, whether you’re enjoying an al fresco meal by the harbour, or browsing the market in nearby Son Severa, which is held on Friday mornings. Go for a romantic sunset stroll along the promenade, or spend your evenings having a few drinks in one of Cala Bona’s lively bars.

Cala d’Or holidays are an eclectic mix of the sleek and the chic, tempered with old-school charm. Cala d’Or started out as a small fishing village, which expanded to meet the rising demands of visitors and tourists. It’s kept much of its old charm, so among the gleaming hotels, you’ll find narrow backstreets housing quirky shops, traditional restaurants, and local bars.

The jewel in the crown is the stunning marina, which adds a whiff of Cannes sophistication to the resort. If you’re a confirmed water lover then you’ll enjoy the range of marine activities on offer, including boat tours and kayaking. Cyclists can take advantage of the warm weather and excellent riding routes, or you can hit the beach with the family and get some serious sunbathing in. Don’t leave your holiday without enjoying a grilled sea bass meal in one of the scenic harbour restaurants.

A relaxing place to stay

You’ll find clusters of shops and places to eat and drink around each cove (or ‘cala’), so you’ll have lots of choice; they’re all linked by a mini train, making it easy to get from one to another. The area’s changed a lot since it was discovered by a group of artists nearly a hundred years ago, but Cala d’Or’s still one of the quieter resorts in Majorca. You can still enjoy the same beautiful summer weather, picturesque views and pine-scented air. Hire a bike for the full effect, or spend a day at the beautiful Parc Natural de Mondrago, a coastal nature reserve that’s not far from Cala d’Or.

Coastal delights

From the luxury yachts bobbing in the marina to memorable scuba diving trips, most of the highlights of your holiday in Cala d’Or will come from the sea. You can visit hidden coves and nearby resorts along the coast, or hire a boat for a leisurely excursion on the water. Perhaps the biggest treat of all is the mouth-watering seafood served in the classy restaurants on Cala d’Or marina. Follow your meal with cocktails for the perfect evening. Or, if you prefer your evenings a little livelier, make your way to the karaoke bars and live music in the mini resort centres.
