Property in Mallorca, Santa Ponsa.

On the beautiful island of Mallorca (also known as Majorca), Santa Ponsa lies on the southwest shores of the island about 18 kilometers (11 miles) from Palma.

 It is here that King James I of Aragon landed in 1229 to take the island from the Moors. September brings a wonderful two-week long fiesta to celebrate the landing.

Most popular with visitors from the UK, Germany, and Holland, Santa Ponsa is one of Mallorca’s most popular summer resorts offering many restaurants and bars and a clean safe beach.

Golfers will appreciate two popular golf courses that have hosted PGA events, although only one of them is open to the public. The others are available to club members and time-share holders. Golf Fantasia is a mini-golf facility with three courses surrounded by gardens. Near Santa Ponsa is Aqualand, perhaps the largest water park in Europe, with many exciting slides and flumes.

Santa Ponsa’s beach borders pine woods and lines a bay busy with jet skis, boats, and windsurfing. Adventurous travelers can learn to scuba dive in the bay. A more popular beach with the locals is known as “Little Beach.” Located near the marina, the beach is shallow and great for children. Rocky coves along the northern shore of the bay are a treat for nature lovers. Boats are available for hire, and you can stay active with riding, tennis, golf, and sailing lessons in Santa Ponsa. Mallorca’s Santa Ponsa offers a lively nightlife, offering restaurants and bars with live music. Popular with visitors from the northern UK, the resort has taken on a bit of a Celtic air, offering several Irish or Scottish pubs.
