In 1985 I had my first ever 'flyaway' hoilday with my wife and 2 little children (5 & 3). It was for 2 weeks and we stayed at a place called Millor Sol in Cala Millor. Cala Millor was very nice. We hired a little Fiat Panda for a few days and travelled everywhere and I mean everywhere. When not in the little car we would walk from Cala Millor up to Cala Bona. Cala Bona was really nice and quiet with a small harbour and sprinkling of places for lunch. Thank you for your post. It showed to me why you should never go back!!

They just wanted a picture of their famous guest! 🙂 Stayed in Cala Bona about 30 years ago, as a kid. We had a hotel at the back of the resort, but the resort looks much bigger now. We walked into Cala Millor most days as there was more going on. Spent 1 day playing footy on the beach with Nigel Clough (then at Forest) and his mates, with Brian watching on (they had a villa in Cala Millor). Nice memories.

They used to take photos for security reasons in some of the All Inclusive Hotels about 15 years ago so you could book to go to a sister hotel in the area for dinner and entertainment at no extra cost. The Levante Hotel in Cala Bona has first-class entertainment and the food is really good it is one of my favorite areas in Majorca the walkthrough to Cala Millior in the evening is so relaxing plenty of bars and restaurants to stop for a wee drink I highly recommend it.

Cala Bone-a is a lovely resort, (sshh, keep it quiet). I’ve stayed at the Catalonia for the last 2 Septembers, it’s a great Hotel & Pool area, best going late Sept when the kids have gone back to school. We read on the comments that the food was cold….Not so, unless maybe you are sitting under an A/C Unit. We had Breakfast & Evening Meal there most nights, with plenty of choice. Great Staff & clean rooms.

If you prefer expensive,wet and miserable Britain then visit Kev's home country of Scotland. Great people,lovely locations but terrible weather. Those protests were about over tourism and not anything to do with Nationalities. Never listen to the British media if you've got an ounce of sense. No wonder youngsters don't buy newspapers or watch much telly any more. Neither should us older generations either.
