Palma Nova neighbours the lively and fun loving resort of Majorca. Palma Nova carries the energy of Magaluf but at a slightly more laid-back approach, with plenty on offer to keep everyone amused day to night. This is one of the reasons why Palma Nova is so very popular with families, couples and friends for summer holidays to Majorca. With its glistening sands of its horse-shoe shaped bay the aqua sea is the perfect place for relaxation and letting the children make sand castles. If you can tear yourself away from the beach you will find a selection of bars and restaurants around the bay and across the town severing popular Spanish dishes, local catches of the day and for those not wanting to be so adventurous there are British dishes on hand. The charming harbour area is the ideal location to spend the star lit evenings with a glass of two of wine and take in the delightful surroundings. Whether you want to escape from kids and have a romantic break there are various hotels in Palma Nova including the adult only Hi Palmanova Palace Hotel or perhaps have a family holiday to remember why not try the Hi Mimosa Park with plenty of activities to keep the kids busy. Palma Nova is the ideal choice for those wanting a combination of relaxation and sun loving nightlife. Book your holiday in Palma Nova, whether you looking for an all inclusive holiday in Spain or self catering Palma Nova has a wonderful choice on hand.
Holidays in Palma Nova leave you with a great selection of places to lay your towel. There is one main beach, split in two, and a third equally attractive beach, Son Matias, which is where the action starts at night. There are lifeguards, sunlounger and parasol hire on all the beaches, which are well maintained, with plenty of entertainment nearby in the form of watersports, little shops and cafes and bars.
It's worth taking the trip to see Palma's cathedral on your holiday to Palma Nova. Set in a 19th Century square, the breathtaking La Seu cathedral is decorated with beautiful frescoes, carvings and stained glass windows. Aquacity, which is along the coast at S'Arsenal is a brilliant water-fun park to entertain the whole family on your Majorca holiday.
The promenade in Palma Nova has a wealth of great restaurants where you can sample all kinds of international and traditional dishes. The French owned restaurant Le P'tit Bistro, despite its name, has not just French but also plenty of international dishes to suit all tastes, and Real Dion has great, value for money food with a family-friendly atmosphere. If you want to sample something a little different, try La Cucharaca, which serves a range of Mexican favourites - with complimentary tequila at the end!
The main street by the seafront is where you'll find most of the shops on your Palma Nova holiday. There are plenty of stores selling everything from clothes, to souvenirs, beachwear and accessories, plus essential grocery stores and pharmacies. Most of the souvenir shops are a little samey, but there are a couple where you might find a uniquely crafted item or special piece of jewellery so they are definitely worth a browse around if you are looking for a special memento from your holiday in Palma Nova.
Palma Nova has plenty of options when it comes to night time activities. There are plenty of bars aimed at tourists and many have competitive drink deals and happy hour(s)!

Palma Nova's main club is called Banana Joe's. It is very popular and has regular themed nights including karaoke. For a wider variety of larger clubs, take a taxi to nearby Magaluf.
