This town is a coastal area with a very vibrant nightlife.
If you want to go clubbing, night drinking or want to have a wide variety of restaurants at your disposal, this is where you have to go.
The town tends to be extremely full in the summer given as it is a preferred tourist destination in the summer. I recommend booking restaurants you really are eager to try in advance to avoid not finding a spot!
This town also offers a wide range of activities. From horseback riding at Rancho Cala Mesquida to tennis at Tennis Club Aguait. You can also ask about sailing courses at the Port de Cala Rajada.

City/town information
Beautiful beach town on the North-Western side of the island with one of the nicest beaches on the island. The bay of Pollença offers the perfect environment for a fun or calm beach day. The beach administrators always have a lot of fun things going on - you can rent Kayaks, Catamarans, Windsurfs and many other things. I would recommend spending a whole day in this place and visiting the Cabo of Formentor for a splending Sundown view. This town is also really close to another very famous beach called playa de Muro.

Excellent Italian restaurant only a couple of minutes away from the Villa. This restaurant offers truly Italian food, mostly prepared by Carlo, who has been the owner for 15 years or more! Excellent overall experience - I would recommend trying their Carbonara or Plat-du-jour!
It is very reasonably priced and is often frequented by locals. This is a very popular restaurant so I would recommend calling in advance and asking for a table on the top floor terrace.

Excellent fish restaurant with a true Mallorquin feel. This restaurant is located by the post of Cala Rajada and is all about offering true food and leaving any fuss out of the way! The restaurant might not be the fanciest, but I guarantee that you will have top-quality fish - probably caught the same day as you eat it.
I would recommend ordering the seafood Parillada for a true mix of the best fish in the area.
