    Top tip maybe bar owners and staff , know who a lot of those thieves are in the area should inform local police, when shop lifters on tour in Glasgow City centre all shops linked by radio. It protects jobs and the survival of businesses , too much theft and robbery will make it a no go area ,but visitors have to be a lot more sensible on leaving temptation with their goods. Another great video.

    Fantastic video to watch Alex. As always great information and a brilliant look around the resort. Please be careful with the heat you look like you had covered quite a distance making the video

    And another thing why do people buy beach towels and stick them on sun loungers around a swimming pool of a hotel because it's not the beach is it ,and seriously i think that who ever came up with the name of beach towels, needs to rename them to sun lounger towels because it's more or less exactly the same on the beach to,people put their beach towels on the sun loungers to,so they are not exactly beach towels are they most don't even get a single grain of sand on them,but I'm not one for sunbathing not everyday because i would rather be out and about exploring and being nosey 😅🤗👍

    Been on that beach today, sea is great, so calm, but a little green with seaweed. Sunbeds excellent with memory foam covers. Also come with a safe, so great advice about the thieves so we make use of these. Another nice video.

    Perhaps the beach wasn’t particularly busy because it’s too hot, but how lovely to sit on the beach under the trees. Thanks Alex.

    I wouldn't trust Padi/Paddy or Murphy to teach me how to scuba dive because i would probably end up drowning 😅👍

    Nice one Alex – toying with the idea of popping down to Palmanova for the second half of October – is everything still open (ie decent restaurants with good wine)?
    Thinking about first half in Port de Pollensa (before it shuts down).

    If Mallorca is closing shop, there's always the Costa del Sol ……

    Great video Alex. The scenery is beautiful. Please keep hydrated. Great advice and information as usual. Best wishes, John

    We stayed at the hotel summer 2022, you need to get to the pool very early to get a sun bed. Beautiful hotel and great location. Could do with upgrading the pool area as can get a bit crowded. Equally, you need to get to the beach early to guarantee a days beach hut. Definitely, will highly recommend. Palmanova is blissful ❤❤

    Looking good Alex

    A Patrol Car is OK but a plain clothes one would be better Alex.

    Brilliant Video as always Alex, Thankyou so much, would love if you could show us Palma Nova Beach apartments(Self Catering) some time, as we love to eat out, we are coming over in a few weeks in September to stay there, seem a lot cheaper than the hotel we normally stay at. Cant wait x😀

    Great video thank you Alex

    • 2 months ago

    hi just found your channel and subscribed. we have booked to come out in september last two weeks to the eix lagotel hotel resort and
    i was wondering what the weather is like this time of year. also do you have any info on the resort / hotel and the surrounding areas. thanks and you never know we might see you there.

    Well done for filming in the heat. Enjoyed watching, the beaches are so lovely. Amazing how few sunbeds had been rented on 2 of the beaches. The bali beds look nice but not worth the extra cost. Watching on my patio & it's baking! ☀️🫠

    • 2 months ago

    Do you know where there is? Nice places to stop but it’s not expensive that would make a good channel review for people that have not got a lot of money that want to stop on the island for a week or so looking at your video that I am watching today Sunday, the 4th of August looks like the tractor has been out ploughing the sand, you can see my apartment your video when you’re on the steps

    The way that they have changed the set up on the beaches in Palma Nova it is much better as where I come out from our apartment and walk across the road. There is nothing there now they have kept all the sunbeds et cetera further back to the wall and more in the middle of the beach so leaving the left towards where the bolts areand clear I find it so much better. I don’t rent any sunbeds. I just bring a Lilo to Lyon put my big towel over the top and big blanket coming to Pal over every year so much nicer than other places I’ve been.

    Why do you never do a small video on Avenida de la Playa instead of just the main beach walk ?

    • 2 months ago

    I did speak to some lovely holidaymakers in the making of this video, but I will be saving these conversations for another video so they don't get lost in this resort update! Also find out more about Mallorca in August here: https://youtu.be/lmdPz2AJabY

    Great video Alex , can I ask a question , do you know why Spanish don't que for a bus ? – I was in a big Que and a Spanish woman just walked on bus at front of que ? – is it because they feel they are entitled before tourists ? Im not miffed just wondering what they are thinking , i know a lot of counties they just skip the que , thanks

    The heat doesn't stop our queen. Beware of the electric water scooters Alex. Who knows what will happen when the lead gets wet. Those luxury sunbeds look great, if they are free to use.. no melon sellers on the beach either today. Was offered 700 pesatas for melon once. I took it not realizing it was for just a slice. Lol. The police are also on holiday here as well Alex. Had my clothes pinched on the beach. Lucky i had my trunks on. Cala palma nova not looking very busy indeed. Not everyone likes the heat apart from that runner!
