Hotels and places to stay in Pollença

Pollença is not a single destination, and that shows in the accommodation offer. If you are looking for peace and space, villas are your thing, dominating the catalog with more than four hundred options. Most are concentrated in the area of the bay of Pollença and in the Port de Pollença, just a few minutes from the beach. There the atmosphere is more relaxed, with seafront promenades and Mediterranean cuisine restaurants, but also more spread out: you will need a car to go shopping or have dinner out if your villa is in a residential development. On the other hand, if you prefer village life, the old town of Pollença offers small hotels and restored houses, such as L'Host Boutique Rooms or Calvario Plaza Hotel, which allow you to walk to the square, the Sunday market and the terraces. The main difference is the pace: in the port you live looking at the sea, in the village you are two steps away from history and local life.

The price changes quite a bit depending on the area and the season. The cheapest accommodation you will find is around 160 euros per night, but the average shoots up to 461, which gives you an idea that there is a lot of high-end offer. Villas with private pools are the ones that raise that average the most, especially in July and August. If you want the price to go down, look at May, June or September: the weather is still good for the beach and owners usually apply more reasonable rates. It is also worth comparing between a holiday home (there are 130) and an apartment (36), because sometimes you pay less for a full house than for a frontline apartment. Hotels, only 8, are scarce and are usually in the village or in the port, with an average level of 3.9 stars, so do not expect large resorts.

To get there, the most practical thing is to fly to Palma de Mallorca and rent a car at the airport. Pollença is about 45 minutes away via the highway, and without a car it will be difficult to move between the village, the port and the nearby coves, although there are regular buses between Pollença and Port de Pollença in summer. Before booking, check carefully what the price includes: many villas do not include sheets, towels or final cleaning, and some require minimum stays of one week in high season. Also look at the exact location on the map, because a villa advertised as "in Pollença" may be twenty minutes from the beach. And if you are traveling as a group, check the real number of beds and bathrooms, because photos can sometimes be misleading. With that clear, you will get it right with an offer that fits what you are looking for, whether it is a family house near the sea or a charming hotel in the old town.
