About

Insider Tips
Palma Nova is a popular destination for British holidaymakers, known for its extensive beaches, affordable accommodations, and attractions suitable for children. It is often seen as a more tranquil option compared to its lively neighbor Magaluf, yet it is not as upscale as its other neighbor, Portals Nous
Palma Nova features 3 beaches along its promenade. For water sports enthusiasts, Palma Nova Beach is the ideal choice. Es Carregador is preferred by families due to the children's play area located on the promenade just behind the beach. Finally, Son Maties is where you'll find all the trendy new bars, making it a perfect place to enjoy a drink
