PROBLEMS in Puerto Pollensa, Mallorca | May 2024 Update

Published 2024-05-18
So we are looking at some early season Problems in Puerto Pollensa which need resolving. Filmed on 17 May 2024, I take a look at what's going on with the beach services, an active building site near the Hobby Club Apartments, and the taxi situation in Puerto Pollensa.

Most importantly, I talk about the one issue that needs highlighting and even policing in Puerto Pollensa regarding cyclists in the resort centre and on the Pink Walk. So please take note of the signs (I admit they could be bigger!).

If you have stayed in the Hobby Club apartments, let me know below what you think. In fact, let me know your opinion on any issue in this video!

  • Good video and very informative again. The weather looks lovely over there at the moment. Well done.
  • @tommymoffat5633
    What a fantastic update Alex. Absolutely love the views of puerto pollenca. It’s a bit disappointing about the sun beds but I know you will be asking all about that for us. And I can’t comment on the cyclists or I would get banned 😂
  • @user-wx8vj7iy2i
    Hey Alex, we can’t wait to be back in PP soon, and love your videos. It would be fab if you walked around the square when in PP next and some of the back streets to showcase the wonderful other bars and restaurants that are not on the front ❤
  • @petermead8593
    Thanks for all the latest information on Puerto Pollensa Alex . Booked up to go there late June so hopefully all the beach problems are sorted out ❤
  • Thanks for the update :) We are back in July than I am sure the sun beds will be on the beaches. I am really against cyclists riding in the walking zone. You always have to be on the lookout and move out of their way which is wrong in my opinion.
  • @TheVigilant109
    Great update Alex. I'll be there in 29 days so very timely information. Puerto Pollensa looks beautiful. Many thanks, John
  • @Sharon75887
    Hi Alex,as a regular visitor of puerto pollensa i really appreciate your update videos ,will be so glad when i see the beach services up and running it does'nt feel like summer yet!! also your right about the cyclist they always cycle through the centre instead of walking we have seen the police tell them to get off there bikes but they still do it!! 🙄🤔
  • @wtc913
    Amazing! Hey friend, big thanks for sharing that video! Watched it all the way through, absolutely mesmerized! Subscribed to your channel as well!
  • @royb2251
    If they issue more taxi licenses , the taxi drivers will have less work in the off peak months. I Enjoy all your vids .Great vlog Alex👍🏻
  • @LittleLoz
    Puerto Pollensa is my fav area in Majorca. I will be there in June! Not long to go now :)
  • @markmw123
    Used to go to PP regularly but, got too expensive so now cruising instead 🛳️ maybe get back one day……Great vid 👍
  • @bellawright1420
    Completely agree with you re cycling but it is ignored by so many.
  • Hi Alex, thank you for mentioning about the cyclists. We were there for the first ten days in May. There were hundreds of cyclist. In the town centre they would cycle thru in droves. We had to jump out of their way. Some were not careful at all. When crossing the road on crossings they would not stop for you to cross. It was quite dangerous. Cyclists seem to believe they are a law unto them selves. If there had been police in the area we would have complained
  • @TheTimeCaptain
    Could be bring your own deckchairs Alex , ... 😉 Joking apart, Puerto pollensa looked Idyllic and peaceful in May..... obviously my favourite resort , along with the pollensa old town, as I have said a few times now. Great informative video Alex, again thank you. 👍
  • Great info for people heading to PP. Watching from the Alcudia & it's gorgeous. 😄
  • Alex, you talked a lot about taxis but failed to warn people of the rogue drivers that constantly attempt to rip people off. As a warning to all….be SURE to get a quote/price for your journey up front! ….even pay them the said quote when you get in the cab!…. Watch out folks….you have been warned and advised.😊 Sunny holidays and good luck to everyone!✌️
  • @davidwalters313
    Amazing. You would have thought given the money generated by sun beds etc they would be clamouring to provide the facilities. The world is going mad!
  • @stephb6935
    Still no sunbed as on the 16th June. At the moment no access to beach services , this would be really difficult if you have a disability. The pop up bars are missing…. The additional bits that make this beautiful bay a little more special. We are still charged the full tourist tax😊
