| A popular family resort with a good balance of both beach and nightlife, also popular with golfers too as there are a number of courses in the area. The beautiful bay occupies the full width of the gulf and has been extended with imported sand in recent years. There are one or two other smaller, secluded beaches dotted along the coastline. Daytime entertainment is centred around either the beach or hotel pools, meanwhile nightlife is adequately catered for by bars, discos and clubs along with plenty of restaurants. Santa Ponsa is well blessed with many restaurants and good quality cafes offering a wide choice of local Majorcan, Spanish, Chinese, Italian, Indian and, of course, good old fashioned home cooking. Not exactly shoppers paradise, but good choice of small outlets and stalls, including clothes, beach wear and accessories, arts and crafts, souvenirs and jewellery shops; a few designer outlets. |
