Default Taxi to airport

My daughter and her friend are returning to England before my husband and I go back. We are collecting them from the airport but want to get them a taxi for the journey back. However, as we are staying in a villa in the country, I'm worried that if we pre-book the transfer the taxi driver will never find the villa. Is there a rank in Pollensa (town not port) where we could be sure of getting a taxi at about 9am on a weekday morning? Would a driver be willing to drive all the way to the airport without pre-booking? The other option would be to pre-book but meet the driver at an agreed spot. As the villa is near Pollensa Golf, I wondered about the car park there - does anyone know if you can just drive in and park? Or any other ideas for obvious meeting points in/near Pollensa town?

Many thanks.

There is a taxi rank in Pollensa, just as you enter the market square across the road from the chemist, in front of Credito Balear bank. Sorry don't know road name. There are always taxi's there and I would not think it a problem to just turn up but why not stop by before the day and ask or even book one explaining where you are.

I would always book ahead I think, they then have the option of arranging a return fare, I beleive local taxis can no longer go around to arrivals and pick up fares homes, only Palma taxi can pick up from there, think thats right?

Local taxis use a short term carpark which when you come out of arrivals you turn right and it's at the very far end. Unless it's changed but i don't think so.
