History
History unfolds around Port de Pollença holiday lets
This resort remained a simple, earthy Balearic fishing village until the turn of the 20th century. A few domestic tourists spotted its beauty and the growth started slowly from then on, with the mansions and uber-elegant Port de Pollença holiday homes of Spanish, German and British luminaries being raised along glamourous Pine Walk – it's said that the likes of Elizabeth Taylor and Charlie Chaplin were drawn there. The Spanish Civil War also worked changes on the town, when it became a major seaplane port under the control of General Franco.
