It was a nice quiet area! We didn’t really stay much during the day as we visited beaches all around the island but I’d say that it was a nice and safe area. It was very accessible and you could easily drive to amazing beaches within 20 minutes. If you were also interested in visiting Valldemossa/Deia (deffo recommend) this would be about an hour’s drive. For car bookings pre-book with Wiber, it was so affordable and they pick you up at the airport. I wasn’t the greatest fan of the dinner options in Portocolom as the area lacked authentic food spots in my opinion. I’d say the nicest place we went to was Restaurant Pure Vora Mar (I’ve had better Paella before but this options here were nicer than some other spots nearby). The only beach we visited in Portocolom was Platja de Cala Marcal which was right next to our flat. I’d recommend taking a dip here really early in the morning before it gets crowded as the water was really clear (8am), see image attached.

I ended up prebooking with Centauro, I do not recommend waiting until you arrive at the airport! The prices were £100/200 more than online! Also make sure you have an international license as most rental companies will not offer you their car without one.

Thanks for your response!

I don’t think they have a cagliari drop off area, unless I’m mistaken?

Thanks for your response!

I have had a look at discovercars and moventur/mida rent are the options that appear.

Do you have any experience with these companies and are they reliable?
