Positive experience: Great beach just like the adjacent ones in the Palmanova area. Two sun loungers and an umbrella cost 19.50, and it's also possible to stay on the free beach, of course. The sea is clean in the morning, while it gets dirty in the afternoon due to swimmers and boats offshore. There is no equipped beach club with a bar, but you have to go to the local places on the street to eat or drink something.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach, quite crowded
Fantastic experience: La playa está bien el aparcamiento sábado y domingo difícil demasiada gente
Positive experience: Muy buena playa, cercana a Palma y con buenos servicios, como duchas, socorristas, alquiler embarcaciones y acceso minusválidos. Es de la más grandes del suroeste de Mallorca. El estado del agua suele ser muy bueno. Hay muchos restaurantes, hoteles y pubs cercanos a la playa para completar la diversión.
Positive experience: Praia limpa com bons acessos

Fantastic experience: Very nice fine sand
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach with fine, clear sand and transparent water, located amid hotels, restaurants, bars, and shops.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach, sand is just perfect. We stayed 5 min from this beach and it was my favourite part of our holiday. There was a lot of activity for everyone. We were there in September so it wasn't crowded. We just loved it.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful and well maintained sand beach, a lot of space, shower. Sunrises are just breathtaking.
Fantastic experience: Nice sandy beach. Often enough space for a game of spikeball or something similar. Beautiful view of boats that are moored a bit further out at sea. There is also plenty of horeca around to grab a drink.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach with fine, clear sand and transparent water, located amid hotels, restaurants, bars, and shops.
Positive experience: Very beautiful beach with a nice walk along the sea. Lots of restaurants. I recommend.
Fantastic experience: We were staying about a 3 minute walk away from this beach and it was lovely! Lots of beds with shade available at no cost, lifeguard on shift, every now and again a rescue car or police car would drive along the walkway to keep an eye on everything. The sand was lovely, the waters were warm and not choppy. My favourite beach out here! Plus lots and lots of bars/restaurants along the walk.
Fantastic experience: Superb area with stunning waters that can get quite lively, but not in a bad way. There's a nice little area with beachside restaurants, benches to sit on, sun loungers too which may be free, as nobody charged me for using them. I preferred it at the more peaceful time in the mornings. Fantastic sight to see at any time of day during the summer.
Fantastic experience: Large beach with sun loungers and umbrellas (€13.5), showers and toilets. Many restaurants nearby. A small downside for the numerous pigeons and seagulls looking for food on the beach.

Fantastic experience: I have reduced mobility and everything is well adapted. The lifeguards are super friendly and attentive; they are Argentine, a boy and a girl offering their help.
Negative experience: The beach is amazing but the concession for the sunbeds does not allow payment by card and does not have safety deposit boxes. Nearby, there are excellent beaches with better services.

Positive experience: La playa está muy bien, cerca del hotel, no está sucia, tiene duchas de agua dulce y palmeras para ponerse a la sombra, porque las sombrillas hay que pagarlas, además de las hamacas (4.5 c/u) Hay padel surf (no se precio) y barcas de pedales con tobogan a 15€ 1h Pero al estar cerca de comercios y restaurantes es lo que la hace Mas atractiva

Fantastic experience: Lovely beach, great for grounding

Fantastic experience: One of the three beaches in Palmanova, Mallorca. Very quiet, clean sea and with plenty of dining services behind.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach
Fantastic experience: Very beautiful beach to enjoy the sun, relax, and swim in beautiful water.

Fantastic experience: Family beach and very average
Fantastic experience: Excellent beach for a swim, very pleasant and clean, nice atmosphere, and the water is just how I like it.
Fantastic experience: Nice beach near Palma. 2 sunbeds and the umbrella cost 19.50 euros (May 2024). I was fined 80 euros for paying in the blue zone with the Palma de Mallorca app, which apparently doesn’t work there, and I had to pay the fine. It seems that each street has a different app, and you have to stay informed.
Fantastic experience: It is a lovely unspoilt but urban beach. I don't think I would like it in high season but in mid April it is a delight. An attractive promenade with plenty to see and do in a gentle way.
Positive experience: Neither Caribbean nor chips. Mallorca and its beaches.
Fantastic experience: One of the best beaches in Mallorca. What I would improve is the walkway that they put up during the season, which is made of thick woods and are very far apart from each other, so those of us with reduced mobility have to jump with our wheelchairs and it affects our backs. Another thing, the disabled bathroom is almost always clogged. Maybe an empathetic official who wants to do things right will read this comment, and this season people with reduced mobility will have a better time.
Fantastic experience: A clean beach that is maintained including raking the sand even in the winter season. It is worth coming here for the sunrise.
Fantastic experience: Steak was fantastic. Highly recommend.
Positive experience: Nice, quiet sandy beach. You can simply choose a chair and/or umbrella and pay 4.50 for a chair, and 4.50 for an umbrella.
Fantastic experience: Good water, clean, space
Fantastic experience: Large beach with sun loungers and umbrellas (€13.5), showers and toilets. Many restaurants nearby. A small downside for the numerous pigeons and seagulls looking for food on the beach.
Fantastic experience: A great beach with very good bars and restaurants to eat or drink.
Fantastic experience: A different beach
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach, clean water. Ideal for the family. Shops nearby to buy drinks or something to eat. Very nice views.
Negative experience: Nice beach, but with a lot of noisy childs.
Fantastic experience: My favourite beach in the world
Fantastic experience: Great beach and location.
