Got back from Cala san vincente on Tuesday after spending a week there, it was fantastic, the scenery the hotel everything was lovely.
Worth a visit in the village is the mini golf, the lady that runs it is really helpful and nice, any information you need she will help you. Trotters bar is worth a visit too, especially if you sit out at the back.............there were small lizards(critters??) running up the walls as you looked down, I'm squemish when it comes to stuff like that but was assured they wouldn't come near us. It was an amazing sight. If you get fed up with food in the hotel, they do a good English menu too.
We visited Puerto Pollensa and went on the glass bottomed boat which was really good. On the Sunday we got the courtesy bus from the hotel (Don Pedro) and went into Alcudia but all we saw was the market. Beware of the stall holders though. My daughter asked someone how much for a pair of sunglasses, he said they were 85 euros and we were about to walk away after telling him "no thanks" he went down to 10 euros, but would not let us get away from his stall, eventually we just turned to walk away and he came running after us grabbed hold of my youngest daughter and I had to literally snatch her away from him. He then went up to my eldest daughter (which I wasn't aware of at the time) told her not to joke with the locals and spat down at her feet, all because she didn't want the glasses!!!!! I think if my partner had been with us this would not have happened. This said, the other people on the market were lovely and the lady that does the scalp plaits was really nice.
The holiday wasn't without incident though think I'm gonna change my name to Calamity Jane anyway that's another story.
Glad you enjoyed your holiday copper. The market traders are a bit daunting, I always let my husband do the talking. Cala St Vincent is beautiful and I hope your incident hasnt put you off going back.
