The north of Mallorca has some of the island's most appealing resorts set amidst beautiful scenery, and the twin bays of Pollença and Alcúdia have fantastic soft white sand beaches and safe bathing. The Alcúdia area is the most touristy part of this coast, but, although it has a fair concentration of high rise hotels and apartment blocks, it's a world away from the seamier resorts in the south of the island.

Although the address of the Apartamentos Siesta 1 is in Port d'Alcúdia, it's about 2 kilometres from the centre, and about half that from the beach. As it's set up with self catering facilities, and there is a large pool area, this may not be a problem, but don't expect handy access to the beach and a good choice of restaurants.
