Playa Mar

Can anybody confirm how far it is to walk from the Playa Mar into the main restaurant area ?
 
We estimate it's roughly 1.5 miles, it takes about 1/2 hour at a leisurely stroll. Don't be put off though. It's a lovely walk if you walk along the Pine Walk. Cross the road from the Playa Mar and turn left down to the water front. Follow the Walk along the sea front under the Pine trees right into town. Along the way there are bars and restaurants to stop at. 'Little Italy' is excellent (you may need to book) or just a little farther, 1 street back is the great 'Pizza Laroc' and 'Bar Coral' (see restaurant forum for crit.) If you don't fancy walking into town every night, you can eat at the 'Bar Bonanza' (live music some nights) behind the Hotel Illa D'Or, the Hotel itself, or 'La Singala' Hostal on the same Street as the Bonanza (also nice place to stop for a drink on the way home) This will be our fourth holiday in Pollensa, and we feel that this side of town is the nicest place to stay. It's peaceful and the pine walk beach is perfect. We actually enjoy walking into town every night (you could get a local taxi back if you felt lazy - it's not expensive.) Have a great holiday!!
 
Thanks for the info its very appreciated.
We have a 2 year old who loves walking I was concerned that it might be too far but we did not fancy any of the other hotels. Half an hour sounds ok.
The Playa Mar does not appear on the P Pollensa map and in the link from the hotel guide it appears half way along the formentera !
 
Does anyone have any comments on the food at the Playa?

Anyone know a of a gym nearby that I could use?

Thanks.
 
The food is o.k at the playa mar, just about average.
there are plenty of good cheap restaurants in the town which is only a 20minute stroll......nicos tex mex is superb....try manducas for a pizza never to be forgotten and pepes bar for a full breakfast for a couple of quid.
If you havn't been to the playa mar before you will love it.
i'm going at the end of may for the 4th year running its fantastic.
