Valentin Puerto Azul Suite Hotel

[joelise80]

One of my terrible teenagers stormed off last year in a huff on the walk back from an evening meal out in the square. He reappeared a while later at the apartment and when I told him off he said " I know this place better than the other side of town and it is safer here than the city centre (at home) that's why I will bring my kids when I have them". I tell you it brought a lump to my throat. My parents have just returned from a week at the Daina and youngest terrible teenager was complaining as we are leaving him at home when we visit in September. So no way is it a Saga town - it is an almost perfect family resort

Couldn't agree more Joelise! We've had quite a few 'storming offs' over the years with our three, and countless times with them rolling home at 6am. There're plenty of bars that stay open late, and then Chivas to entertain them till sunrise....although in their words it's the worst club ever, but fun if you're with friends!

They are now in their late twenties and 30 and still want to come on their PP hols with us at some point during the year... plus 2 grand children! The nights are spent more quietly now although, depending on the mood, they can still push the boat out and go for it .....and they normally drag us along for the ride

ROFL here, and of course those of us who ARE the Saga generation are tucked up in bed by 11pm aren't we Debs ?.........NOT.

Just thought of another saga metaphor:-
Safe And Genial Atmoshere.

The teens and early 20s in our family just love puerto pollensa ........ as have teenagers of all our friends who have visited so I don't think anyone travelling with teens should be put off.

My daughter and her 2 friends came with us 2 years ago and still talk about it! They tried Alcudia a couple of times but ended coming back to PP early, in a taxi. They had a ball in PP, going to Chivas, dining, and having their pre-disco drink on the beach with friends, during the day they lolled about the main beach, with the sports on offer. Teenagers may wish to go to hell-holes like Magaluff, but PP is hassle-free for them, and they are "kings of the castle" there.
