Thanks for mentioning the Gran Sol. Stayed in it 9 years ago and am back soon. A lovely smaller hotel - quite select and perfect for those who like quality and a more peaceful pace. Entertainment is low key which suits us as there's so much elsewhere in the resort if you want it. We love it and the fact they offer a bed & breakfast option rather than only having the option of half board, because we like to support the local restaurants and enjoy those amazing sea views from them rather than spending every night in the same hotel buffet. When we were last there the breakfasts were great as well.
Wow what a lovely surprise. Cala bona just loved this video And a lovely interview with the couple and I totally agree the entertainment in hotel sur is brilliant Well done Alex
Ahh, perfect timing Alex! I’m flying out on Saturday, and after 45 years of staying exclusively in Puerto Pollensa, this time I’m adventurously staying in Cala Millor instead - inspired by your walk-arounds! Looking forward to nice long walks between Cala Bona and S’Illot 😀
Just what we needed Alex. After a pants day in work and having to put the heating on, what a wonderful pick me up. So many happy memories of this wonderful town. It's our favourite time to visit, unfortunately can't do 2 holidays this year. Nevertheless, we were transported there for a short while tonight.! Thanks Alex. 😘👍
On your website, I have read the article about increasing fines for parents taking their kids out of school out of official holidays. You were asking if this were normal outside of UK… oh boy, in Germany we pay 2500 Euros on fine. So the UK fine of 80 Pounds is really a laughable joke lol
Hi Alex. Great video. Our first time last year to Mallorca and Cala bona at the Alicia. Tried Cala d,or this year just for a change of resort but although we liked it there it’s back to Cala bona next year and many more years too hopefully. Such a very lovely resort and the walk along the front to the harbour is wonderful. We have booked for the Bonamar so can’t wait to see what’s it like
Must have just missed you, we were having a late lunch this afternoon outside the Cala Bona hotel looking over the harbour. We’re staying in Cala Millor and must say we’re quite surprised at how busy the walk into Cala Bona has been, the beach was really busy on Monday and Tuesday with only a few sun beds unoccupied by afternoon.
Cala bona looking excellent Alex. And not a mosquito in sight. Certainly looks relaxing there. Is that fantasy park still there. I visited it once many moons ago.😊
Colonia de sant Jordi i n the south, colonia de sant Pere in the North also very relaxed, but i think that i never saw them in your vids. Grtz from Belgium, Gunter and Erica
Never been to cala Bona...looks lovely though. Another place to do a good walk through would be Iberostar Club Cala Barca at Barca Trencada close to Cala D'Or. Been there 4 times and love it. You can either walk through reception of down the path to the left hand side (as you look at it) or reception. Easy walking distance from this hotel to all the beaches of Mondrago nature reserve.
Absolutely loved watching this. The blue sky’s made my day. Excellent video Alex

Oh that's lovely! Have a fantastic time, and I'd love to know what you think! Please let me know!

Wow just missed you Alex we had a lovely holiday there last week, love Cala Bona.
That's lovely to hear Alan!
We are here at the moment - first time ever and staying at Hotel Cala Bona - just loving it 💕
We’ve never been, but it does look lovely. Beautiful views from the restaurants. Loved hearing from the couple from Sheffield. Thanks Alex.
Great video Alex. Cala Bona looks beautiful. Great to see it so busy in October. Best wishes, John

We are now in Porto Alcudia, lovely place, quit busy
Lovely ! Enjoy!

Hello! I have a video here from Colonia Sant Jordi ruclips.net/video/eSngNl8Dvic/видео.htmlsi=AWbFPPEUEHH3xW6M

That's a fantastic idea Gareth, thanks for the heads up!
👏👏
Looks nicer than Palma nova think I need a change and they have a tandoori nites aswell lol!
How far or how long in a taxi from the air port
About an hour approx! ps. Even better is Kashmiri Tandorri in Cala Bona!
I bet leapy Lee couldn’t get a word in with that bloke 😂
Have you checked out Iberostar Santa Ponsa?
Question Why does everything close down in October when the weather is still good there
The holiday companies focus on selling the Canaries
Most relaxed wise its either Cala Bona or Puerto Pollensa.
Yes!
This resort is worst place I ever visited. I would never go there again
Why?
