Hi there, have booked flights to Majorca April 18th 2009 for myself (34 year old f) my son (who will be 10 months old when we go) my mum and dad (who are 67 and 72) and my sister and her husband (who are 41)
We are planning on booking a villa for our stay and just need help in choosing the correct resort.
Ive been to Majorca many times before however havent ever ventured out of Magaluf (Yeah i know.. i was young and wild once!!)
I want somewhere which is scenic, with nice walks (maybe promanade ones), nice mixture of restaurants (my dads a typical pie and chips man so we will have to please him a few nights!!) shops, supermarkets.
Any suggestions are welcome, im wanting to book accomodation on Tuesday so need to decide by then, I was thinking possibly north of the island ??? anyway i'll let you lot advise me and i'll go off what seems to be the most popular recommendation.
Our favourite resort is Cala Millor and we enjoyed walking to Sa Coma and Cala Bona. Cala D'or was good too, Alcudia was OK, but we really didn't like Pama Nova.

One of the nicest promenade walks is that of the pine walk in Puerto Pollensa. The resort itself is quite scenic with its mountainous backdrop and nearby Pollensa and Cala San Vicente are both attractive. There is a good selection of villas around Puerto Pollensa and, yes, you can get pie and chips as well as something a bit more locally authentic. As you are planning on April, it could be that some resorts will not be completely open. Puerto Pollensa will be, bar one or two places maybe.
Cala Bona for me. Lots of restaurants/bars, nice harbour. Reasonable selection of shops, but lots more down in Cala Millor which is about 15 mins walk. Louise
I am not so sure much will be open in Puerto Pollensa that early in the season, you may have to try a larger resort which although not as nice as Puerto Pollensa should have more open such as Alcudia or Cala Millor/Bona/Sa Coma.
Cheers
Dave
