Villarenters.com has revealed that searches for self catering accommodation on the Balearic Island are up by 65% from this time last year.\u00a0 And bookings in some towns on the island are more than treble their 2010 level.<\/p>\n<p>The most popular destinations on the island are the resorts of Palma Nova which has seen a 166% increase in popularity, and Pollensa which is up a staggering 210% from 2010. The most popular villas were those that came with private pools.<\/p>\n<p>The survey also found that holidaymakers were holding off on making holiday plans until the last minute. The time between a search for property on the company\u2019s website and the dates of travel had apparently reduced by a quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Villarenters.com managing director Victoria Sanders said: \u201cMajorca has long been a popular choice with UK holidaymakers, but this year interest really has increased dramatically. Customers appear to want to stay a bit closer to home and choose the \u2018safe\u2019 option \u2013 political unrest across North Africa and the uncertain economic outlook will undoubtedly have played a role.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Written by:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aplaceinthesun.com\/news\/feature\/tabid\/131\/EntryId\/1068\/Majorca-increasingly-popular-with-holidaymakers.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">A Place in the Sun<\/a>\u00a0Monday, August 08, 2011<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"dnn_ctr618_MainView_ViewEntry_lblBlogTitle\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/h2>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Traditional favourite Mallorca has seen a surge in holidaymakers this summer, as Brits opt for a familiar break in the sun according to findings by rental specialists Villarenters.com.
