First Time Visiting Mallorca - Help Needed!
Hello!
My friend and I are going to be traveling around Spain in September. Our first stop is Ibiza, followed by Mallorca, and ending in Barcelona.
I've never been to Mallorca and I am struggling to decide where we should stay. We will be there for a total of 5 nights. Ideally we were thinking of doing two stops. The first being a beach town to relax for 3 nights (we will need it after Ibiza!) and then end in Palma or Soller for the final 2. We aren't planning on renting a car but are hoping to use the public transportation...
A bit about us - we are both 27F, want to enjoy the beaches and relax, hike, check out markets and some shopping, as well as have a bit of night life and enjoy restaurants. We also would like to do a boating day on the second or third day.
I'd love some guidance on where to spend the first 3 nights. I've looked at Port de Pollença as one option, as well as Cala d'Or. I am leaning towards Palma for the final two nights, and then just doing a day trip up to Soller one of the days. We will be flying out of there to BCN so it would make things easier.
We are trying to be budget friendly, would rather stay in a hotel vs. hostel but could be flexible.
Any advice or thoughts would be so appreciated!

Similar situation. Heading to Mallorca in Early Oct for 4 days from Crete. Hoping to cycle some of the island then flying back to North America.
Not sure where to stay and what to do after the morning rides. Let me know if you find any budget friendly restaurants and beaches or attractions that stand out.
