Resort tips
Santa Ponsa has been a favourite Majorca resort since the 1950s, thanks to its broad sandy bay, shallow turquoise water and pine-lined promenade.

For a change of scene, head to nearby Port Adriano for glamour and super-yacht spotting, or into Palma for Gothic architecture, shopping along Passeig des Born and harbour views.
