- In this video from Port de Soller Mallorca, find out the good, the bad and the expensive in this popular destination for holidaymakers and day trippers.
With all the press coverage about tourism saturation, I take a look at Port de Soller walking from Repic Beach to Port de Soller centre. We take a look at prices in restaurants, we see how busy the beaches are, I check out the price of sunbeds, taxis and the historical tram, and I'll let you decide whether Port de Soller is good, bad or expensive.
This video was filmed in June 2024.

Lovely place to visit. Then train down through mountains to smell the citrus.
It’s just lovely, and not too many people. The prices reflect the exclusivity of the resort and the prettiness. I didn’t think the prices were too high. Thanks Alex.
True Diane...
Hi Alex, I am new to your videos. I really appreciate the time you take to make your videos fantastic. They’ve helped me so much to plan our first trip to Mallorca in a few weeks.
By the way, I love your accent.
Thanks so much Nancy ! Welcome to the channel 🤗
Fantastic Video. Well Done.
Lovely video Alex. What a beautiful place and at the moment not too busy. Really brightened up my Friday evening watching this
Thanks so much Tommy !! 🤗
I love Soller and Port de Soller ❤
Me too
Great video Alex. Really whetted my appetite for Mallorca. Only 9 days now to Puerto Pollenca. I love the sunset from Ses Oliveres in Port de Soller. Best wishes, John
That has come around so quickly !
Thanks for this amazing video. You know that the Port is our happy place. We are already bracing ourselves for the rise in costs when we get there, the hotel was also way more this year.
Everything has gone up here unfortunately Faith :(
Beautiful port soller. Next time you are there pop into the Eden hotel and take the lift up to the rooftop and enjoy a cocktail 🍹 stunning views and sunset 🌅 arriving there in 2 weeks. Great video as always 😎
Thanks for this suggestion !! I was actually parked right outside - I didn’t know I could go up but I will do next time !
Ten years ago, I selected this place as my retirement spot - before they built the tunnel.
Since then, its off my list sadly, due to mass tourism and the astonishing price hikes.
Disappointed it's gone this way. I miss the old days.
I'm sure many people do :(
We absolute love Port Soller, but similarly it seems to be getting busier every year. It makes me wonder what is left in Mallorca!
@ozmunky where is your new selection?
We visited Sa Calobra yesterday and after that we went to Port De Sóller with a boat. We will be back there some day! Amazing and breathtaking views, I fell in love with the island for sure!
That's lovely!! Thanks so much for posting this!
HERMOSO VÍDEO!
Thanks Alex, another fab video from Port De Soller and in just 20 days I will be there! Simon, 😎🍷
Fabulous !
Looks lovely there and the sea looks like a mill pond. Well done.
Thanks Edward.
Looking forward to the island tour
Thank you for this video Alex, most enjoyable and good to see Puerto de Soller again. We stayed for our wedding anniversary in October 2019 at what is now the Pure Salt Hotel, I could see it behind you at the start of the video. Was an excellent place to stay then, with great views of the bay and the mountains in the distance, especially at night time from the roof top restaurant. The staff were superb too. October was a good time to visit, the whole area being not particularly busy, with very pleasant weather still. Thoroughly enjoying all your videos.
Awww thanks so much 🤗
Hiya! It was great to meet you 😁
No such thing as a free lunch, unless you go to soller. No price ,no pay .lol. i have a soft spot for that place, even though its been a long time. Thank you for the excellent video Alex.
Cheers Glyn !
@@MallorcaUnderTheSun hope everything is ok Alex. 💛
Visited here on monday after your video recommend to check it out. Looked a lovely place but took an excursion with TUI on and they only stopped for 12 mins, ridiculous Tui. Tram to Soller looked lovely again but only for 30mins stop. 😢 Would highly recommend visiting by booking yourself direct and having more free time to explore.
Hi alex i was there after covid with my daughter we did the trams it was beautiful
Aww lovely ☺️
Absolutely brilliant prices should be same over the island x
I love Port de Soller.
Soller is such a gorgeous place.
We were only in Port De Soller a few hours, such a lovely place but my god was it expensive.
It's not cheap this year, that's for sure.
I will tell you exactly why from my experience why the MIRAMAR don't show their prices,because they are extremely expensive,put it this way walk in sit down and pick up a menu and look at the prices i guarantee you..you will walk out quicker than you walked in.. HOW MUCH 😅 👍
Soller is absolutely beautiful.....I too don't think it is overpriced.....I imagine the upkeep of the place is costly, so I get it.....
Fair comment Kenny!
And want to be totally honest with you I've fell in love with your TH-cam channel,love your content so much so i put up the advertisement's during your videos and i no it's alot you get from TH-cam but every little penny helps aye 😊👍
Thank you - it’s free content after all and no payment wall on it - so thanks for putting up with ads
@@MallorcaUnderTheSun But when the ads do come on I just go to the loo,and let's be honest most of the ads about things no body buys anyway 😊👍
Hola Alex exciting times ill be in cala de mallorca and Porto cristo next week Saturday 😂
Very exciting Mike!
I stayed at the Miramar around 1965 . The beach was a narrow strip and only a few boats about. The resort is unrecognisable now.
Love both Soller and Port de Soller, however, far too busy from mid June to mid September and sometimes impossible to get on the tram from the Port to Soller and if you do it’s nose to nose and stifling hot - sadly won’t be back - nice to see your video though.
Would have been nice to to see where you get the bus from the beach x
Must admit i lime to know what im paying before i go into a restaurant,, , unless of course,, money is no object. Its embarrassing t have to leave if it's too expensive, dont like to be ripped off,,,no-one does.
Love Soller! Need to get back there! Valldemossa is also beautiful. Pollenca is my happy place. Desperate to come back! Do you have any links to any fincas or villas you can recommend in the pollenca area?
I don't because I live here, but search here for a huge range (it's an affiliate link) vrbo.com/affiliate/op4l1LB
Alex, would love if you could visit Cala Ratjada sometime. :))
Yes
Yes!
When are you doing another Peguera video? Beautiful place
In the next couple weeks I'll be down there!
@@MallorcaUnderTheSun amazing! Thank you! Heading back there in August!
is it right that the 3 drink rule is changing
Aw Alex did you see the silver tree or is it still there 👍
Ah, yes, I know what you mean. I saw it on my last trip, but I don't think I walked far enough along here yesterday
Last week the tree was still there😉.
@@sandrahornfischer6686 good to hear that
Hi alex good blog nice place need to speake Spanish take care of ❤
Lovely...when it's not busy. Now, if you have to ask the price... 🤣
Be prepared for more ranting if more restaurants do this...
@@MallorcaUnderTheSun 🤣Forget the food, what's the cocktail prices like, you haven't said? 🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸
☆☆☆☆☆☆JESÚS I TRUST IN YOU ☆☆☆☆
Hi. I'm in magaluf too. I'm making vlogs. Let's meet and collaborate pls
Can English people still come over
LOL! of course
Can I have your job ! x
Please please do NOT send more tourists on the TIB buses. They are so crowded and it is becoming more and more an issue. Local people need to travel to work or doctor appointments and cannot get on the bus because of too many tourists. The buses get filled in the Port and people in Soller cannot get on.
The video is ok but the word Port de Soller or Soller is mentioned far too many times
Hi Alex, I am new to your videos. I really appreciate the time you take to make your videos fantastic. They’ve helped me so much to plan our first trip to Mallorca in a few weeks.
