Puerto Pollensa Villas to Rent

Puerto Pollensa — sometimes spelt Port de Pollensa or Port de Pollença — is our northern Mallorca villa destination, a bayside resort tucked beneath the Serra de Tramuntana mountains at the top of the island. Our Puerto Pollensa villas to rent range from smaller properties for couples and small families through to large villas sleeping twelve, priced from around €55 per night. Most come with a private pool, and the collection sits a short drive from the seafront rather than directly on it, which is typical of the way the town has developed away from its two long sandy beaches. Sister villages of Pollensa inland and Cala d'Or on the south-east coast round out the wider Mallorca collection.

Puerto Pollensa villas from a family-run agency

Prestige Villas Spain is a family business established in 2004, originally specialising in the Costa Brava and Costa Blanca. In the 2010s we expanded into Mallorca — sometimes spelt Majorca — starting with Cala d'Or on the south-east coast and growing to cover the north of the island, including Pollensa town and Puerto Pollensa.

We work with established local partners who know each villa on the ground. When you book a Puerto Pollensa villa with us, you deal directly with one team throughout — not through Airbnb, Booking.com or another platform — and there's no mark-up on the nightly rate. It's the kind of service that's harder to find as the villa-rental market gets more automated, and it's a big part of why a lot of our guests come back year after year.

Where Puerto Pollensa sits on Mallorca

Puerto Pollensa is the bayside resort at the northern tip of Mallorca, about 60km from Palma airport. It sits on the sheltered Bay of Pollensa, tucked beneath the eastern flank of the Serra de Tramuntana — Mallorca's UNESCO-listed limestone mountain range. Two long beaches, Pollensa Beach and Albercutx, define the coast; the Pine Walk promenade runs behind them, lined with seafood restaurants and cafés.

The town of Pollensa sits about five to six kilometres inland — a separate settlement with its own character, and the reason we treat them as two spoke destinations rather than one. Puerto Pollensa is the beach base; Pollensa town is the inland market-town alternative. Both work for the same kind of holiday, and the choice comes down to whether you want the seafront on your doorstep or the mountains and the market square.

Choosing a Puerto Pollensa villa

Puerto Pollensa villas with a private pool

Most of our Puerto Pollensa villas have a private pool. That's the default expectation for a Mallorca villa holiday and it's built into the way the properties are laid out — pool, terrace, outdoor dining space, and a short drive to the beach for morning and afternoon runs. If a private pool is a hard requirement, we list this clearly on each villa's page; if you'd also consider the south-east coast, our Cala d'Or villas with private pool shortlist is worth a look.

Luxury villas in Puerto Pollensa

Our higher-end Puerto Pollensa properties combine larger private pools, more generous outdoor space, and better positioning between the town and the seafront. Luxury villas here suit group holidays, milestone family trips and multi-generation stays — and, as with everything else in our collection, at the actual nightly rate rather than a platform-marked-up one.

Large Puerto Pollensa villas

Our largest Puerto Pollensa villas sleep up to twelve — good for multi-generation family holidays, group get-togethers or two families sharing. Large villas here are limited in supply: if you need one, book earlier rather than later, particularly for July and August. If you're planning a bigger party — say fourteen or sixteen across two nearby villas — get in touch and we'll suggest pairings.

Family villas in Puerto Pollensa

Puerto Pollensa is one of Mallorca's most family-friendly resorts thanks to the sheltered shallow water at Pollensa Beach and Albercutx — a meaningful improvement on the deeper, choppier bays elsewhere on the island for holidays with young children. Family features vary per villa (fenced pool, cot, high chair, ground-floor bedrooms) and we list what's available on each villa's page. Our family villas in Spain shortlist collects the best family-friendly properties across all our destinations.

Puerto Pollensa's beaches

Puerto Pollensa's two main beaches sit on the same sheltered bay. Pollensa Beach — kilometre-long, with fine golden sand and gently shelving shallow water — is south of the marina and covers most of the watersports action, including sailing, paddleboarding and dinghy hire. Albercutx Beach, at the northern end of the town, is quieter, more natural, and has the same shallow water — a firm favourite with families for that reason.

The Pine Walk promenade runs behind both beaches and along the coast for a couple of kilometres — tree-shaded, flat, and one of the pleasantest walks in the north of the island. For something different, the Cap de Formentor peninsula runs north out of Puerto Pollensa to dramatic clifftop views and the remote, rocky Cala Figuera cove at the tip. It's a scenic drive rather than a beach day, but it's worth doing at least once.

Eating out

Puerto Pollensa's restaurant scene runs along two arteries. The Pine Walk promenade behind the beach is where the seafood restaurants cluster — grilled fresh fish, arroces (Mallorcan-style seafood rice), and simple tapas served with a sea view. Inland, the main square (Plaça Miguel Capllonch) is where the cafés, tapas bars and evening venues cluster — busier at night, with a broader mix of Spanish, Italian and Mediterranean options. Pollensa town, six kilometres inland, has its own restaurant scene — smaller, more local, and worth the short drive for a change of pace.

Getting to Puerto Pollensa

Puerto Pollensa is about 60km from Palma de Mallorca airport (PMI), reached by direct seasonal flights from most UK regional airports. The drive from the airport takes 55–65 minutes depending on traffic and route. Car hire is the most flexible option for a villa holiday here — the town centre is walkable but Cap de Formentor, the Tramuntana mountains, and Pollensa town all need a car for a comfortable half-day. Taxis handle direct airport transfers if you'd rather not drive, and there are limited public bus connections from Palma.

Booking a Puerto Pollensa villa

You book directly with us, not through a platform. Prestige Villas Spain has been arranging Spanish villa holidays since 2004 and we work with local partners on the ground for every villa we represent — no Airbnb, Booking.com or aggregator in between, no platform mark-up on the nightly rate, and one real person to call before, during and after your stay. The price you see on each villa's page is the price you pay.

Peak Puerto Pollensa villa demand runs from mid-June through August, with the very best-value properties booked six to nine months ahead. May, June and September are excellent for cooler weather, easier flights and better rates. If a specific villa, week or a particular sleeping arrangement matters, book earlier rather than later — enquire through the villa's page and we'll come back to you with availability and confirm pricing.
