Can Pastilla is almost perfect choice for those looking for a real vacation in Mallorca. Near the airport, close to Palma and also located on the beautiful and long beach Playa de Palma. CP has everything needed for peaceful as well as for active vacation.

Everything was walkable, easy access to the bus to Palma. We spent a whole day on their beautiful beach. I am not wild about crowds, but just off the main drag was good food and great atmosphere. Things looked a little seedy in places, but we never felt unwelcome. It was just a nice shoreline town. I'm glad we there instead of Palma - and we could go there in minutes in the bus for 1.5 euro all day.

The location is great and quiet, which is nice if you like chilling out holidays. It's good for visiting Palma as well as the neighborhood (nice stroll through Playa de Palma). Beach is excellent, nice and clean as well as the sea. If you are a beach lover, I recommend this location. Just be ready to be chucked out of your sun bed at 6pm (the only downside!, which is a bit of a joke bearing in mind the beds and umbrella costs you €16.05 per day)

Excellent location with regard to the airport and the sea. Lots of good restaurants and the promenade along he water is terrific. My stay in Can Pastilla was mainly to facilitate my daily trips to Deia. I am connected to the family of Robert Graves and have visited them 15 times since 1998. For several years I helped Beryl Graves with her effort to re-release collections of Robert Graves poetry. Lucia Graves wrote the snipe on the cover my current novel, Trying to Catch the Wind. By the way, my first name is "Josef" not Joseph.

The beach is really beautiful and the water is crystal clear. You can go out and get drinks almost everywhere, even if it's really a really quite place. Pay ATTENTION to taxi's drivers!!!! They steal money!!!!! 3 kilometers 14€!!!! They change their prices every time! Once I had to pay 6.85€ and the taxi driver pushed something in his "km counter" and he changed it to 13.50€..... just be careful and ask before you start! They are thief!!!! I complained but they are too stupid to understand, or they just don't want to. The taxi prices are higher that here in Switzerland!!! Shame on them. It also happened at the beach with the lady with watermelon and coconut. 20€ 1 coconut and 1 slice of watermelon, I complained and I payed only 15€ but then the police got her right away..... Mallorca is really beautiful but you have to be smarter than them.

The beach is very nice, sand is soft, and it is clean. There are many restaurants, and walking way only. Even though, during the night, cars were passing by. For me, the night was too noisy, becasue of many people walking around, stuff speking down in the restaurant long after the closing hours. And the beach is cleaned too early in the morning, so no proper sleep there possible. Of course, someone can find it super. The distance to airport is excellent. 5 min driving, no traffic jams.
