Palma Nova Holidays: Package Deals to Palmanova, Majorca

Families are the obvious fit. Marineland Mallorca is about a mile from Palmanova, and Western Water Park, with its Western Land, Indian Town and El Paso areas, is around two miles away near Magaluf. A short transfer from the airport also matters when you are travelling with tired children after an early flight.

Couples and anyone after a calmer holiday in Palma Nova can look past the main sands to the smaller coves along the coast, such as Cala Comtessa and Caleta de Bendinat, both a few miles east, and the Castle of Bendinat about two and a half miles away. Those curious about older history can visit Naveta Alemany, a protected archaeological site near Magaluf.

Palmanova is the base most people mean by a holiday here: a resort of around 7,000 residents built around a group of beaches, with platja del Carregador right in town and Na Nadala and Son Caliu Beach close by. Platja de l'Hostalet is about a mile along the shore, so you can choose a different stretch of sand most mornings.

Magaluf is roughly a mile further west and slightly smaller. Staying there puts Western Water Park, Cala Vinyes and Naveta Alemany on your doorstep, and the airport transfer is barely a minute longer at about 16 minutes. Both share the same bay, so it comes down to which beaches and sights you want closest to the hotel.

May and June are the best months for holidays in Palma Nova, Majorca. Average highs climb from 24°C in May to 29°C in June, with only five to seven rainy days a month. July and August are the hottest, at around 32°C, and July is the driest month of the year with roughly two days of rain.

September stays warm at around 28°C but is the wettest month, averaging ten rainy days, and October brings highs of 24°C. Winter is mild rather than beach weather, with highs of 15°C to 17°C from December to February. Remember that UK school holidays push up demand in summer and at half-term, so booking early for those weeks gives you more choice.

Palma de Mallorca airport (PMI) has direct flights from the UK and is the only airport you need. The drive to Palmanova takes about 15 minutes and to Magaluf about 16, which makes this one of the shortest transfers on the island.

If you are combining a stay with travel by sea, Palma's ferry port is about five and a half miles away, Alcúdia roughly 39 miles, and there are sailings onward to Ibiza. Car hire is easy to compare here too if you want to explore beyond the bay.

Package holidays to Palma Nova bundle your flight, hotel and airport transfer into one booking, and when sold as a package they are ATOL-protected, so you are covered if something goes wrong with a supplier. You choose your UK departure airport, your dates and a board basis, from room only or self-catering through half board to all-inclusive, and the short drive from PMI is arranged for you.
