Pollensa

Pollença sits inland from the bay of the same name, at the foot of the Serra de Tramuntana. It's the cultural heart of northern Mallorca — a town of stone houses, narrow streets and small art galleries that has long attracted writers, painters and musicians. The transfer from Palma Airport takes about 45 minutes by private car.

Climb the 365 steps of El Calvari for the best view over the rooftops. Plaça Major comes alive on Sunday mornings with the weekly market — pottery, leather, local cheeses and almonds. The Roman bridge on the edge of town is a quick photo stop, and the Pollença Festival each summer brings classical music to the cloister of Santo Domingo. Beach trips are easy: Cala San Vicente and Port de Pollença are both 10 minutes by car.

Pollença's narrow lanes mean that arriving by big coach is impractical. A Janer-Bus private transfer can navigate to the door of any townhouse, finca or hotel for a fixed price, with vehicles ranging from saloons to 16-seat minibuses for larger groups. We track your flight and adjust pickup time automatically.
