Location
About the surrounding area of Finca FormentorFinca Formentor may be placed in the incredible and far-reaching countryside, but guests are still very close to a variety of local amenities and tourist attractions. Just 1.5km away is the town centre of Pollensa, a quaint region that is teeming with history. Placa de l’Almonia is just a 2-minute walk away from the centre of Pollensa and is home to a large house that served the poor during the troubling times of the 16th century. Thus, this square holds a large amount of significance for the local residents. Placa de l’Almonia also served as a battleground on 30th May 1550. During this conflict, the local residents of Pollensa defended their home town against ambushers. In turn, there is a remembrance ceremony on 2nd August, in order to thank those who risked their lives. This unique square is an ideal place to visit if you are a lover of European history.
Just 5km away from Finca Formentor is the Pollensa Golf Club, a highly-acclaimed establishment that offers some of the finest golfing facilities on the island. Its signature course contains two of Mallorca’s longest holes, which is ideal for guests who are looking for a challenge. During its 30 year history, Pollensa Golf Club has been working tirelessly to ensure that the local environment is protected and preserved whilst guests are using the course. The club only uses purified water in its lake, helping to conserve local habitats and ecosystems. Prices for this attraction can vary depending on the season but usually start at around €45 for nine holes.
The town of Pollensa is very community-focused, seen by its collection of local markets. The Pollensa Market is located within the main plaza of the town, making it a very accessible destination to visit during your travels. This market contains over 300 stalls, all of which are hosted by a diverse variety of native merchants. Markets such as this one give tourists a unique glimpse into the daily lives of some of the locals, giving you a more authentic experience. The stalls provide an array of clothes, craft items, and bags, which allows guests to pick up a few items to remind them of their wonderful trip. Pollensa Market is open every Sunday from 8 am till 1:30 pm.

THE REGION
Pollensa, in the north of the island, is an ancient town of attractive narrow streets and an impressive main square, lined with cafés, restaurants and bars, and is just a few kilometres from Port de Pollensa.
The town has several places of interest to visit, including the Roman bridge, signposted ‘Pont Roma’, which is still in use, and the Puig de Pollensa – a small mountain topped by a monastery just outside the town. Here we provide all the information you want to know to make the most of this relaxed yet culturally satisfying inland town.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesFinca Formentor is just a short distance away from an assortment of family-friendly activities, making this a prime location for children. The idyllic Cala San Vicente beach is just 6km away from the villa, giving guests the chance to relax in a truly remarkable location. This beach is filled with perfectly soft sand and calming waters, creating a picturesque scene for families to enjoy. Moreover, this tremendous beach is also surrounded by a collection of towering cliffs, helping to create even more incredible views. Cala San Vicente beach is also close to a wide range of facilities and restaurants, ensuring that you have everything you need during your time here.
Pollensa hosts a wide selection of cultural landmarks, helping children learn more about the local history and the rich culture of the town’s inhabitants. The Pollensa Museum is just a short walk from the town centre and provides guests with an in-depth look into the region’s artistic history. This museum was constructed between 1588 and 1616, combining a large selection of authentic Gothic altarpieces. In the 1960s, the Pollensa Museum was widely acclaimed at the Summer Exhibition of Paintings for its wide selection of 16th-century artefacts. The museum was finally founded in 1975, exemplifying its long and far-reaching history. The Pollensa Museum does not charge an entrance fee and is open every weekday between 10 am and 2 pm.
If you are travelling with children who love exploring, the Alzinaret Caves is the perfect location. Found just over 10-minutes away from the centre of Pollensa, these magnificent caves host a variety of unique structures and references to the prehistoric era. Despite their ancient origins, these caves were first recorded back in 1927 by archaeology Wilfred Hemp. To celebrate his legacy, there is a cave named Number 7 of Hemp that acts as a shrine to this individual. There are multiple caves to explore, each allowing children to learn more about the area and its archaic history. In addition, there is also a collection of benches outside of the caves for guests to use if they do not feel comfortable entering inside the caves.
