Mallorca, one of the most beautiful and exotic Spanish islands has taken the number one spot for Best Beaches in Spain according to the 2012 Traveler’s Choice Awards, compiled by the world’s leading travel review site, TripAdvisor.\"And<\/a><\/p>\n

While, Mallorca’s Puerto Alcudia took the crown for best beach in Spain, the golden island scooped third place for best beach in Europe, coming just behind two beaches in Turkey.<\/p>\n

This news comes as no surprise to Sales and Marketing Director at Taylor Wimpey Espa\u00f1a,<\/strong> Marc Pritchard, who has been living and working on the beautiful Balearic Island for over 20 years:<\/p>\n

“Mallorca has again demonstrated that it has some of the best beaches in Europe and in my opinion, the world. <\/strong>My very first memories of Mallorca are on a wonderful family holiday I had with my parents back in 1974 – this is where my love affair with Mallorca started. I have lived on the island for many years and I must admit <\/strong>the picture perfect beaches and wonderfully relaxed lifestyle were the two key ingredients in choosing Mallorca as my home” explains Pritchard.<\/p>\n

Voted Spain’s best beach, Mallorca’s Puerto Alcudia stretches along five miles of gentle waters making it one of the longest beaches on the island. Described by TripAdvisor as a beach with ‘velvety white sands’, visitors and residents alike can pick from a quiet stroll around the quaint beach-side fishing village or swimming in the electric-blue sea, to windsurfing and paragliding for the more adventurous.<\/p>\n

\"And<\/a>Meanwhile, as someone that enjoys spending time on Mallorca’s best beach, Puerto Alcudia, Marc Pritchard also explains,<\/p>\n

“Puerto Alcudia is a beautiful beach and given its size is able to accommodate many people, which it often does in the summer. However, many of the locals and our home owners look for quieter beaches that attract fewer crowds. For instance there are two beaches just 10 minutes away at Aires de Pollen\u00e7a and Pollentia Mar. These beaches are a little quieter and excellent for families to enjoy a walk along the seafront or find a place to relax and watch the world go by.”<\/p>\n

\"And<\/a>For those looking to own a slice of Spanish paradise on the golden island of Mallorca, why not take a look at what Taylor Wimpey Espa\u00f1a has on offer.<\/p>\n

Located near a stunning sun drenched beach, Aires de Pollen\u00e7a affords two bedroom apartments in a gated community from just \u20ac260,000 offering convenient underground parking spaces, a dazzling communal swimming pool and shared gardens.<\/p>\n

Pollentia Mar, has just one two-bedroom apartment remaining, just 50 meters from the beach and Pollensa’s famous Voramar promenade affords a single block of apartments with a communal area and swimming pool as well as private parking spaces.<\/p>\n

\"And<\/a>Located in port of Pollen\u00e7a, Pollentia Mar is close enough to benefit from all the facilities that the port has to offer while affording peaceful surroundings and beautiful views. Fully furnished show homes available from just \u20ac275,500.<\/p>\n
