Stayed at the hotel sur a couple of years ago, first time back in Mallorca after 20 yrs. You should check out hotel more just between alcudia old town and port pollensa, a fantastic little jewel of a place. Two hotels , one pub , 10-15 minute walk into old town. If you don't want a holiday full of nightclubs and crowded beaches it's perfect. Love watching your videos, as a female solo traveller of a slightly older age than yourself they have given me the confidence to use public transport and get around to other places that i probably wouldn't go unless it was on an excursion. Keep up the great work. Just back last night for hotel more, back again in sept .

Tapas in 80/90's Cala Bona were 100 Pesetas each, 150 up in Cala Millor. 1500 Pts (£7.50) would easily get ya drunk and fed.

Alex ,have you thought about of a drive vlog for those who don't wish to take the bus, show what its like to drive around the Island? save time and Hire a car. I'm back in September for two weeks after May one week, from reviewing your vlogs and if you know my history on your channel because of your honesty My wife and I where so impressed and we jumped from City breaks to the Balearics. What do you think only a thought. I know its probably a pain in the bottom but camera on lights action and a few bleeps for those silly drivers out there TTFN.

Lovely guide to Cala Bona. We are here for the first time , and were loving everything about it until we tried the Bonaza cafe . Shame you mentioned that place on your video as we tried it under your recommendation and were very disappointed. The owner is so rude and appears to have no interest in customer service. She is curt and blunt in her responses to customers questions . She was rude with me and so I watched her serving other customers afterwards and I was quite shocked how she spoke to these older people who had arrived after us. We went to another place after as my husband wanted to get rid of the taste of her dreadful coffee from his mouth . Might be a good idea in future to try these places before you recommend them as think you would not have included her in your video if you had. We love Cala Bona but will never go to that place again and would advise others not to bother either . After looking it up on Trip Advisor we can see Caroline has been rude to many other people too.
