For Puerto Pollensa go here...

...and on the maps you will see all the front-line hotels/appts. They are all good, some are more expensive than others.

I was just enquiring what Alcudia would be like this time of year, as we are looking to go next week. Will all the bars/restaurants be open, and will it be busy, or a ghost town.

I have also heard that there are lots of mosquitos in Alcudia, will this be a problem at this time of year. Also any info on the current weather would be good.

I hope you can help!!!

Based on past experience of the area....

Still fairly busy, everything open although starting to closedown as the month-end approaches, weather usually very pleasant, no (or hardly any) mossies at this time of year.

We went to Alcudia last October for half term, and it was still very busy.

The weather was still warm, but we did have one morning when it rained, but it turned out ok in the afternoon. #We came back with sun tans.

We had no problem with mossies.

Have a great time.

The best supermarket is the one nearest your hotel so that you do not die of heat exhaustion or a hernia on the way back with all your water and booze!

It might cost a few euros more over the course of your holiday, but believe me, the pavements in Alcudia are made of special shiny slabs that reflect the heat straight up your shorts and make you feel you would pay anything to be back in the pool!!!

Seriously there are loads of shops in the resort. There is a big SYP quite a way down opposite the Platja D'Or/Condesa de la Bahia if you've got a map i.e. about 1/3 way down the big lagoon, on the mountain side of the main road (as opposed to the beach side).

Just booked full board in the Hotel More, Alcudia - has anyone been? Went to S'illot last year and loved it, we were in self catering apartments and a two minute walk from the beach! This seems to be more or less the same in this hotel. Just a bit worried about the food in case the kids don't like it (they're 11 and 8) the thought of spending the extra bit of money on full board and then having to eat out because the food isn't great kinda worries me!

Right by Bellevue (in Siesta 1) is The Red Lion pub where they have a kids disco sort of thing from around 8 in the evening. They're in the process of building a kids' club as well. The Red Lion also has its own mascot - Lenny - which is one of the entertainers dressed up.

Has Alcudia got a decent bit of nightlife for a couple of 21 year old lads? Not anything mental like Magaluf etc, just a few decent places that stay open till 3 or 4 and there will be a few girls around. As I said we're not after anything mental as we just want a mainly relaxing holiday but a few good late night places would be good if there are any?

Thanks all.

My son and his mate went with us three years ago and stayed in a separate apartment in the same complex. At the time they were both 18 and they had a BALL!

I know that they went to "Bells" and "Menta" which were open until really late, but also a lot of the music bars etc stay open really late too :D :D

Have a great time, Im sure you will find a few nice girls to keep you company 8) :lol:

Just a bit to add to what tootsie said. Near to Menta is the Magic Centre where the disco reopened last year and there are are also music bars in the Centre like The Room. Back of the Delfin Azul hotel are more music bars, and there is also Enjoy close by (this is on the main road). In the port itself there is not a lot, other than Mestizo though there is a new place opening in the marina at the old Quo Vadis music bar. Not sure what it will be yet. Manolos Music Bar is a bit of a misnomer; it isn't any great shakes.

By Bells in the Ciudad Blanca area there is also Sabor Latino music bar and Goodfellas not that far away.

Out of Puerto Alcudia, there is Mambo Playa Cafe in Playa de Muro; possibly the best of all the late-night places, and overlooking the beach.

In a word - plenty!

hi all

can anyboby give me any ideas on how mush it cost for meals drinks etc?

:thanks :sun :glynis

Hi there

Hidropark - 15 euros for those aged 12 and over. 8 euros kids 5 to 11. Under 5's free. Check their site for any updates - http://www.hidropark.com

As for meals and drinks, depends entirely where you go. A pint of beer is generally going to be around the 3 euro mark - for instance. Something like a fresh orange juice can be 2.50. Food, 13-15 euros for a real good plate of mixed grill or something would be an average. Pizzas somewhat less. The real bargain places tend to be in the port itself, the more local ones away from the front line. Places doing tapas are often good value as you eat one and then if you want more, just order one. Some of the bars/pubs do breakfasts for around 4 to 5 euros.

Hope this helps.
