Holiday beach resort in the east of Majorca
A purpose-built holiday resort, Cala Millor is a major family holiday destination on Mallorca’s east coast. Its main attraction is the fine sandy beaches met by turquoise shallow waters, behind which you will find a promenade lined with hotels.
Cala Millor, like many of the eastern coast resorts, is popular with northern Europeans. In summer it is lively with the beaches full of people by day, and late-night bars and discos lighting up the resort by night. Although most people come to relax on a sun lounger and dine in one of the many restaurants, there’s a whole host of activities for adults and children to enjoy here, from boat trips and watersports to children’s theme parks and more.
In winter, Cala Millor takes on a more tranquil atmosphere with many of the hotels and restaurants closing between the months of November and March. However, there are around 5,000 residents who live here year-round.
