Have you got a taste for medieval things? Then you should go south of Port de Pollenca, you will come across a town “Alcudia,” which is quite famous for its so called medieval wall. It’s a quite a clean and tidy place, but this is only place where the level of cleanliness is not good enough because it doesn’t reflect the history. It has quite a great history. The Romans made Pollentia the capital of their island. It was then destroyed in the year 426, and was completely ignored until the year 800 when Moorish leaders made a fortress and it was named Al Kudia. The town was the center for trading up to the late nineteenth century.
All you need is one hour; that’s all the time needed to go through the town. But if you want more then you could also go have a look at the remains of Pollentia. It’s not far, just outside the walls of Alcudia, you will find the remains (which are just broken walls and pillars).
If you don’t want to walk, you can always take a bus. They will drop you at Placa Carles. You can get something to eat from the nearby cafes. But the best amongst these is Ca’s Capella; and if you go east from the Sant Jaume church, you will be there in no time.
It’s a really tough decision to make when it comes to accommodations; nearly all of these establishments are situated at such beautiful sights. From there, you can have a view of the port.
Most of the tourists reside at the Sea Club hotel. It is within walking distance from the beaches of Alcudia. You have a selection of swimming pools to choose from, and also great arrangements for families. All rooms come with an attached balcony, not to mention that the kitchens are well equipped with utensils, and air conditioning and satellite TV are also available.
If you have money to spend, then you should try out Club Mac. Some might think it is a bit on the expensive side, but it has been recommended by many. You can enjoy so many different facilities here. You could sunbathe, and at the same time enjoy the warm pool. And there’s no need to worry about the kids; they can enjoy themselves in any of the nine other pools. Apart from that, the gardens are fabulous and you will enjoy the walk at any time of the day.
