Can Picafort – A lovely resort for all holidaymakers
I think
Can Picafort
is a gorgeous resort full of
luxury hotels
and
midrange (affordable) hotels.
This resort is very popular with both British and German holiday makers. It is located on the north east section of Majorca in the Bay of Alcúdia. It approximately 55 minutes away from the Palma de Mallorca airport, depending on the traffic volume at the time of your arrival in Majorca.I have always felt very relaxed in Can Picafort and I love the view from the gorgeous beach and promenade. I often see a mini train that runs through and around this resort.

The walkway that takes you up to the main road is full of shops and there is a great selection of bars and cafes, as well as a few discos.  | Majorca, Can Picafort, view of shop window displaying colourful crockery. |
You will find even more shops, hotels and bars on the main road running through the resort. Pedestrian walkway from the beach upto main road

There are many shops within this resort, but if you require a change of atmosphere, there are regular buses that will take you into
Playa de Muro
or
Alcudia.
There is a good selection of restaurants in this resort as well, however, our favourite is Vinicius Restaurant located on the corner of the walk-through and the main road that runs from Arta to Alcúdia. My husband always has the Pizza and he says it is delicious and always cooked to perfection. Being a pasta lover, I have tried them all, but my favourite is still the Spaghetti Marinara. If you enjoy seafood, I can highly recommend the Mussels.

, just a stones throw away from the beach, can offer you just that. It is located in a very relaxed area of Can Picafort, and these newly modernized, and luxurious one or two bedroom apartments are equipped with absolutely every amenity you could possibly need, to give you that … … home away from home feeling. Not only are these lovely apartments well equipped, but … … all of the apartments have sea view balconies and air conditioning for those particularly hot days in Majorca. I thought it was a real bonus that the apartments also have a bath tub and shower, plus … … space where a folding bed for children can be placed. The hotel is equipped with an elevator for your convenience, a roof terrace and a compact pool. It is also nice to know that they offer a 24 hour reception service and a hand selected, dedicated staff to help your holiday run smoothly. Not only that but … … there is a 24 hour Doctors Service and Baby Childcare Facilities on request.

These programs are … … interchangeable and also include breakfast and transfers. Although optional, I think that booking your apartment with the Adventure or Discovery Program included is great value for money and … … isn’t it nice to know that this hotel does not increase the prices during school holiday periods. The Adventure Package offers activities like caving, trekking, a night at Rancho Grande, or canyoning.
