Bellresguard

Hi
Has anyone stayed at the Bellresguard apartments called Brite 1 Sangrilla?Does anyone know the nearest hotel to these apartments? For a transfer
pick-up,
best wishes Gina

This is probably the most convienient one: on the return journey a small aperitif can be taken at La Singala whilst you await pick up (plus access to the 'services').
Hotel acogedor en Pollença, Mallorca. Hoteles Norte de Mallorca - Hotel Villa Singala

Others nearby are the Illa d'Dor and Playa Mar. Both of which you would have to stand on the pavement, with your cases, looking like a lost refugees!

Don't forget to make sure you have wheels on your cases. It's a short walk to the apartments, but carrying 20Kg will soon have your knuckles dragging on the floor!

Also make sure you have a clear map of Bellresguard and the position of your apartment. If you haven't been before it could be confusing, especially if you are arriving in the evening.

Super apartments, super position. Lucky you. Enjoy!

@ Belladonna -Thanks for the Map link saved me searching for it!
@ Gina - La Singala is directly across the road from your apartment and the Spar shop. Ideal drop off point. (the wheels are still a good idea though!)

Just a word of warning, particularly if you have children. The zebra crossing between the Spar shop and La Singala requires care when you are crossing from Spar to La Singala (and onwards to the beach). The hedge obstructs the view of the road and there is no footpath on this side of the road so you have to peep round the hedge to check if it is safe to step into the road. It's not a busy road,particularly since the bypass was built, but could catch out the unwary.

Thanks Clinkham, it is great when members who actually have first hand info reply to these questions. A map is as good as a map is but that's all it is..to be able to give actual experience is worth it's weight in gold.

Spot on Clinkham.....one of the apartments we rented we picked up the keys from la Singala, couldn't be any nearer for you Gina as the apartment you are going to is the opposite end of Illa d'or and Playa Mar. Great choice, have a great time.

Brilliant Map Bella! I have never managed to come across one so detailed, it will be very beneficial to a lot of visitors to the area as Clinkham said it can be a little confusing if you have never been before. Also, can I just say although the area looks huge and it has indeed grown over the years it still has lots of very quiet areas with beautiful pools and gardens and one is quite unaware of how many blocks of apartments there actually are.

I agree with Favie Bella. Well done finding the map which i'm sure many visiting the area will find useful. It takes time and effort to respond to peoples questions so whether first hand or just a map it is useful whatever the situation. Both are valid and helpful to the first time visitor. Bellresguard is a very large area with many blocks of apartments and it is useful to have something in front of you to visualise before arrival too. I just love to look at anything to do with PP whilst at home and i've been literally hundreds of times but still that feeling is there. Good to have on the ground knowledge from people who have visited but great to have members prepared to help with the basics too. Thank you!

Maps are useful for just the location, better still to look on google earth, I have the free app for my iPhone, its brilliant you can zoom right in and see all the detail and layout of the apartments
