Thank you for doing this x staying at the Elba hotel in April 24. Going solo so this has been invaluable x

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Glad to be of help.

[@dessied1204]

Great video thanks.👍

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Thanks Dessie.

[@isabelleandro2914]

Thank you so much for your amazing video.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Our pleasure

[@grahamradway1044]

Thank you for braving that climb up to the top of Torronova. Had many good breaks in a hotel opposite the spar near. Not been for a few years so nice to see how it has changed.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Thanks Graham.

[@sandracarter8920]

really helpful video thank you

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Glad it was helpful!

[@123456789helloman]

Got plenty steps in with that walk! Plaza play the best music in Magaluf

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

I have a friend who used to play there years ago.

[@neilcooper6914]

Many thanks for showing me the Rosa del Mar I'm staying there from May 19th Thank you very much Keep safe and well

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Thanks Neil.

[@faithg9766]

I have never seen the torre on Torrenova opened up, it must have amazing views, but I suppose that's the point! It is a great, if quite steep, little walk over the top. I am glad there are many flatter ways to walk between Palma Nova & Magaluf.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

I would be interested in having a look around.

[@fatboyslim3550]

Great video steve , weather looks great , always informative, thanks for sharing it with us 👍😉🇪🇸

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

The weather is just right at the moment, but we are expecting a heat wave next week.

[@tommyreid8094]

Fair walk that

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Got to get the steps in!!!

[@SueMcCaffrey123]

Really enjoyed that walk with you Steve thank you. Sue 😊

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

It's a bit of a pull to get up there!

[@chrissansom2188]

That was a good workout today. Seemed like you was going uphill forever. Thanks for sharing. Cheers 🍻

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Seems to get longer every time I walk up there!!!

[@lynnmennella2543]

👏👏👏Bravo well done you for braving both hills!!! We know them well,we've stayed @ Hotel Florida quite a few times between 2005 & 2012 We managed it ok(we were in our 50's,now late 60's 70's,so not so easy)😂😂 take care

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

It was quite a trek!

[@MrTrev2507]

I notice the Hawaii sign haas been changed down the outside of the building, back over in 25 days can’t wait for some sunshine.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

They have done a good job changing the Hawaii sign. Hope you have a great holiday.

[@artvanhulst8741]

Cheers for the video, if you have any heat & sunshine to spare, it s always welcome over here (Temps at present 8 C.....). Nice to see Bananas disco is still around. Used to hang out a lot at Pachas Pub - nowadays a Tobacos shop - and before that at Den Glade Viking, which was closed many, many years ago.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Temeratures are predicted to go up next week!!!

[@joandavidson7385]

Loving your videos Steve enjoying every one very informative myself and my husband are coming over in 3 weeks so will keep an eye out for you and Anita thanks again

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Hope to see you soon Joan.

[@dianeleahy3345]

A good walk today. I hope you’re cold gets better soon, probably something you picked up on the plane. Thanks Steve.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

I feel a bit better today, thank you Diane.

[@tracyevans5639]

Hi Steve, great video again. Me and my husband stayed at the Rosa del Mar for a month, two bathrooms... very handy lol. Palmanova our home from home

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Sounds like my sort of holiday!

[@johnlester6113]

Steve, "A steep hill", truest words spoken, as my lady=friend and I, stayed "up-top" at a hotel, and she finished up in Palma hospital for a couple of weeks with heart attack, and this was a lady who previously lived up a hill in Cala Major, so take heed! Every time I climbed up to the hotel I used to have a 'rest-stop", half way up.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

It is quite a pull. I was concerned when a lady wrote to make saying that she was staying at the Torrenova hotel with her husband, who was in a wheelchair.

[@Soothing_SoundsASMR]

Hi Steve, thank you for walking round Torrenova, it’s my ideal place to live, the villa that’s for sale was €8 million euros last time I looked, so keep your fingers crossed 🤞 for me for this weeks euro lottery, if I win the villa will be sold, I’ll invite you and Anita round for a few drinks round the pool 🍹 🍺🍸🍷🍾🥂🥃👍

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Good luck with the lottery, I look forward to a drink on your terrace by the pool.

[@mikeskaife473]

Good morning Steve and Anita. Thank you for another great video, some parts I was familiar with, but others I’m not. A couple of things Magaluf is not short of are tattoo studios and cash machines. The same as you the only time we visited was during the day, I think it would have been way too noisy at nighttime But everyone to their own. Thanks again.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

The govenment are trying to change Magaluf and clamp down on the anti social behaviour.

[@RickW..]

Brilliant Steve. I asked ages ago for you to go up past the Elba Sunset 👍👍. Had a great 10 days there last august. Thank you. Stay well.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Thanks Rick, got there in the end.

[@Eduardo-vd8kk]

Gracias por su paseo por Torrenova, until top up the hill. Nosotros vivimos en la plaza cerca del aparcamiento del Hotel Tobago; por esta parte casi nunca pasan. Saludos.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

¡Es bastante montañoso en Torrenova!

[@mrboutandabout]

We stopped in the alua sun exactly a year ago today great hotel loverly food staff very friendly. But steep hills all around it

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Not really suitable for someone in a wheelchair.

[@williamhenderson6930]

puffing and blowing a bit going up that hill Steve. At the start of your video you said it would be a short walk today. Well, that was some short walk you did. Bill

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

I have to get those steps in Bill!!!

[@dianajones362]

Really enjoyed that walk today with you. Thankyou.❤

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Turned out to be quite a walk!

[@robertwalker4808]

The Mar Senses rosa del Mar is a lovely hotel stopped there last year with my uncle and going back again this year. Staff and cleaners are polite and very friendly and helpful. Papis is a great place to go for a quick snack or a proper knife and fork meal. Wonderful staff who work there. Have often eaten at B-max and had great service there it is second to none. Great food well priced. Fantastic staff. There are some great views of the bay around that side of torrenova. You must have got your step count in plus a few more for good measure.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Thanks for the info on the hotel and your rcemondations for places to eat.

[@catherinedelatorre9252]

Thanks Steve, very informative, we will stay away from the hills, traveling with a wheelchair. Enjoy your videos and always looking forward to the next one.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Palmanova front is pretty flat, so you shouldn't have a problem there.

[@lesleymason7838]

I walked up there years ago for a mooch, don't think I could do it now!!

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

It is quite a demanding walk.

[@petert9785]

Magaluf seems like a kind of "Vegas of Mallorca" to me, but Crusoe's looks good.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Hopefully it will get better.

[@joysansom5287]

You sound full of a cold Steve must be the change in temperature , thank you for still going out and doing this lovely video take care and have a nice rest when you get home 😘

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

I have been really blocked up for the last couple of days. It is beginning to clear now.

[@tobikeet117]

We are staying in the rosa del mar in June , thank you for you’re helpful vlogs much appreciated

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

My pleasure Tobi.

[@alisonmorse7417]

Been coming to Magaluf for 25 years and only walked up there once lol

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

It's not something that I do regularly.

[@TheChrisvige]

they have bonfire nights in Mallorca😱!

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

We used to have one every year with the scouts. The cricket club used to heve them, but none recently.

[@glenjarnold]

How long has the Hotel Seramar been there Steve? (7:50) I'm sure there was only a bar/cafe there in the mid-90s when we were there. It was run by a guy called Luis - we'd go there for lunch nearly every day.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Well spotted Glen. That's a new name to me. It is still called the Comodoro, as far as I know. I think Seramar must be the name of the hotel group.

[@glenjarnold]

@@SteveandAnitainMallorca Ah ok thank you. It's the covered patio and what looks like a pool that seemed new-ish to me, I'm sure I don't recall them 20 years ago, they seem to be where Luis's place used to be. If I remember correctly it was called Bar Azul or similar.

[@colingrant8401]

The building behind the locked gates is the actual New Tower that gives Torrenova its name. I`m sure you knew that.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

I would like to get a closer look. A pity they don't make something of it. There must be a great view.

[@colingrant8401]

@@SteveandAnitainMallorca Google Earth shows what seems to be abandoned residential development all over that headland, not visible from the road. Calvia council put a restriction on the area. Maybe they are in dispute with the owner? Intriguing!

[@bigbull7098]

Great video,how much would a taxi be from the Elba to the middle of Palma nova roughly as we are booked in the Elba in June but that bank is to steep for me

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

It's not far so I would guess only 5-6 euros. Goiny to Palmanova is downhill, but it is a bit of slog going, particularly if it is hot.

[@eleanorcottingham2072]

Hi Steve another lovely video I don't fancy the walk up that hill but the views are amazing Can I ask a daft question on the tib bus for 2 people I take it you click your card once on and off is that right as I've never used my card on the bus before thanks in advance 😊

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

You have to tap for each passenger, so if there are two of you it is twice on and twice off.

[@eleanorcottingham2072]

@@SteveandAnitainMallorca Thank you as we're going to Santa Ponsa on Tuesday we appreciate your help 🙂

[@ellcor]

The Torre de Sa Porrassa and its surroundings are under the auspices of Calvia Council. It is a large area of land with fabulous views and there are two abandoned houses on the site. It is quite controversial because Calvia closed the access about thirty years ago and have done nothing with it since. Other versions mention vandalism and anti social behaviour and I understand there were fatalities with people falling from the sheer cliffs at night.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

Thanks for the info. It is a pity that they don't do something with it.

[@gillianh3427]

thanks for this! we will be in palma nove tent hotel in july, can you show it?

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

I'll try to point it out next time we are in the area.

[@JanetScotton-pg2yy]

Hi Steve My husband and I along with my 75year old parents are visiting Palma Nova for the first time in September, we are staying at Globakes Panama, we have booked the pirate show for the Monday and was wandering what is the best way to get there....we watch and enjoy your walks thank you.

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

If's a fair walk so you may be better off getting the hotel to book you a taxi. It won't cost very much for the ride and will be more comfortable.

[@JanetScotton-pg2yy]

Thanks Steve I was thinking of getting hotel to ring a taxi and hopefully after the show there will be taxis outside ....would that be wise to just jump into a taxi?

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

@@JanetScotton-pg2yy Taxis should be fine.

[@user-tz1fs2zk1p]

Hi Steve Arriving in Cala Bona in weeks time however have heard there is building work going on behind the Hotel Cala Bona. Do you have any idea on whether this would disrupt your stay should you be staying in this hotel. Any feedback is welcome thanks Les

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

We haven't been over to that side of the island for a while, so, I don't know. Hope you have a great holiday.

[@conniehall1787]

Wouldn't mind buying that house but would say it's a fortune

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

The prices of property are crazy here.

[@lesleymason7838]

I feel tired for you Steve!

[@SteveandAnitainMallorca]

I was glad to get to the top!
