Great video Alex, it was lovely to meet you when we were there in June. Great to see all the lovely places in Cala Bona and can't wait to get back in September
It's years since we stayed in Cala Bona & you have reminded me what a lovely resort it is. It seems you can also eat out quite reasonably. Great video Alex.
Thank you for this video, we love this place. We’ve stayed in Cala Bona several times & always felt welcome. You really showed what Cala Bona is all about xx
Husband and I visited the Proture Bonaire in May 2023 and loved it. Daughter asked us to book it again last year for her and our grandson as we said it was very child friendly and they loved it! Cala Bona is such a lovely resort and we found it very friendly. We’ll be back again to the resort but perhaps to a different hotel next time but only to see what others have to offer.
Visiting in 5 days for our first time, love the videos you make gives such an insight on the places in Mallorca and advisories on what to expect. Thank you very much 👍🏻
My family of 4 are staying in gran sol end of August for the first time in spain. Calabona looks beautiful thanks for the great vid. We hope to bump into you on our holidays.
@@MallorcaUnderTheSun thanks for the reply. We have been here at Protur Bonaire Aparthotel 5 times in the past 10 years. We absolutely love it and the locals are amazing
Stayed at the hotel sur a couple of years ago, first time back in Mallorca after 20 yrs. You should check out hotel more just between alcudia old town and port pollensa, a fantastic little jewel of a place. Two hotels , one pub , 10-15 minute walk into old town. If you don't want a holiday full of nightclubs and crowded beaches it's perfect. Love watching your videos, as a female solo traveller of a slightly older age than yourself they have given me the confidence to use public transport and get around to other places that i probably wouldn't go unless it was on an excursion. Keep up the great work. Just back last night for hotel more, back again in sept .
Great video, thanks Alex! ....... for my next holiday in october, i couldn't decide between cala bona or puerto pollenca, so i'm going to both! 4 nights in hotel sur, followed by 4 nights in hotel romantic, puerto pollenca 🙂
Alex ,have you thought about of a drive vlog for those who don't wish to take the bus, show what its like to drive around the Island? save time and Hire a car. I'm back in September for two weeks after May one week, from reviewing your vlogs and if you know my history on your channel because of your honesty My wife and I where so impressed and we jumped from City breaks to the Balearics. What do you think only a thought. I know its probably a pain in the bottom but camera on lights action and a few bleeps for those silly drivers out there TTFN.
18:28 Gran Sol .... ' I think maybe a hotel'.... 🤣 SO, this four star hotel is rated number one in Cala Bona, on Trip Advisor. It's excellent - we've been there six times. See if you can get a free night there to review it.
Been Cala bona multiple times, love the resort but the beach is the only part that lets it down, I’m sure it’s got worse over the years with them not taking away the sea weed
@@MallorcaUnderTheSunvery possibly ? I’d assumed it was budget cuts Looking for September holiday was gonna try somewhere else but this video popped up maybe it’s a sign to return to Cala bona? 😂
Lovely guide to Cala Bona. We are here for the first time , and were loving everything about it until we tried the Bonaza cafe . Shame you mentioned that place on your video as we tried it under your recommendation and were very disappointed. The owner is so rude and appears to have no interest in customer service. She is curt and blunt in her responses to customers questions . She was rude with me and so I watched her serving other customers afterwards and I was quite shocked how she spoke to these older people who had arrived after us. We went to another place after as my husband wanted to get rid of the taste of her dreadful coffee from his mouth . Might be a good idea in future to try these places before you recommend them as think you would not have included her in your video if you had. We love Cala Bona but will never go to that place again and would advise others not to bother either . After looking it up on Trip Advisor we can see Caroline has been rude to many other people too.
Typical .you fly back to mallorca to get away from the British , and they follow you back..lol. glad everyone feels welcome over there Alex.. gissa job please. Hehe.😊
I really wanted to love this place. But I didnt. Unfortunately I found most of the locals quite rude and I felt unwanted there. I wouldn't return, no way.
Excellent video Alex. So full of great advice and recommendations. I love how you always take the time to give a shout out to the local businesses
@@tommymoffat5633 thanks Tommy ! There are so many fab businesses in Cala Bona !
I'm here right now Alex and loving it. Will watch the vlog later. Thanks
Coming out at the end of September, can't wait
@@bigphilswheels hey ! Have an amazing time !
Thanks Alex. I'm a bit squiffy at the moment! 🍷🍷😬
So nice to see this Alex cheering me up no end

Great to meet you too Tony!
I was surprised it didn’t look very busy. The flower displays looked beautiful, and it looked like a lovely welcoming breeze in the heat. Thanks Alex.
Thanks so much for watching Diane!

The resort offers great value in my opinion!
Thank you for this video, we love this place.

Oh that's lovely to hear Fiona! And yes! I've heard from several CB holidaymakers who do this!
It's such a blessing having someone given helpful information, you are amazing 🎉❤😊
Nicest comment ever, thank you!
Loved this. So excited for our first trip to Cala Bona in August 🤗
Have a fab time !

What a fab idea!
Brilliant vlog Alex lovelly place❤
@@DavidDunning-m3v thank you 🙏🏼
It looks like one giant hotel/restaurant surrounding the marina!!
Nice wee resort cala bona
Ahhhh i heard the kitchen bell in Janet and John's then!!
i did the boat trip on moonfish :)

That's a great idea! Although you may see a different side to me (the sweary one) - the things I saw today!
Planning on going in start otctober. Can I expect the weather to be suitable for bathing?
my favourite place in Mallorca
Tapas in 80/90's Cala Bona were 100 Pesetas each, 150 up in Cala Millor. 1500 Pts (£7.50) would easily get ya drunk and fed.
@@johnbrown3471 haha yes ! Those were the days !
You certainly get around that island 🏝️.Do you ever visit any of the other Balearic Islands?
@@kevanhubbard9673 Not for the channel … yet!
i went to that bar - bar argos :)
visit beckys baguettes just up the prom towards cala millor :)
Do you know if the Cala bona bike hire is open end of march into April ? 😊
Not sure yet, but I'll try and get an update from there!
@ that be great I’m booking a holiday tonight but really want to go on bikes while we there

Oh, there's a thought!
Are businesses still open late October here and in Cala Millor?
Most stay open til the 31 October - you may find a few starting to close but even in winter there are places open
@@MallorcaUnderTheSun thank you
Bridgwater is in Somerset not Dorset 😂
Lol, yes! Shows how often I'm there 😂
Place is best of Mallorca
Been Cala bona multiple times, love the resort but the beach is the only part that lets it down, I’m sure it’s got worse over the years with them not taking away the sea weed
There must be a reason why it's being left, I don't know...
@@MallorcaUnderTheSunvery possibly ? I’d assumed it was budget cuts
Looking for September holiday was gonna try somewhere else but this video popped up maybe it’s a sign to return to Cala bona? 😂

Calla Bona beach a bit seaweedy!
It is a bit!

Looks deserted
I hate the way Alex says piella 😂
AYE . 😊
@@Sharpy-Staunch I’ll try not to lose sleep knowing this 😜
@@MallorcaUnderTheSun 🤣🤣🤣👍🏻
I will not go to an Indian Restaurant in Spain. What a waste
