Ivory Playa has a prime position in Alcudia, on Majorca’s north‑east coast, practically on the edge of its legendary, seven‑kilometre Blue Flag beach. Step outside and you’ve got the boardwalk, watersports and family‑friendly chiringuitos within easy reach, while the Roman site of Pollentia and Alcudia’s medieval walls are a short taxi or bus ride away.

Nature lovers are well placed too: the wetlands and birdlife of Albufera Natural Park are close by, making this a smart base if you want to mix beach time with walking, cycling and gentle exploration.

• Beach: approx. 50m (across the road from Alcudia Beach)
• Albufera Natural Park: approx. 2km
• Puerto Alcudia resort centre & marina: approx. 3.5km
• Alcudia Old Town: around 4–5km

Approx. transfer time from airport: 1 hour 45 minutes (Palma de Mallorca – PMI)

You can keep things flexible with self catering or let someone else do the cooking and opt for Bed & Breakfast or Half Board.

The main buffet restaurant serves international and local dishes at breakfast and dinner, with show‑cooking stations and kid‑friendly options. Highchairs and a microwave are available for families, and beachwear isn’t permitted in the dining room so pack a light cover‑up.

Evenings often start in the Central Bar, the hotel’s lobby bar which usually opens from early evening until late, depending on occupancy. Outside, the pool bar on the terrace is the go‑to for daytime drinks and simple snacks in season (typically April–October), perfect for relaxed lunches between swims.

Details such as opening hours, reservation requirements and any supplements can change season to season, and may vary depending on your chosen board basis. For a guide to inclusions when you choose an All Inclusive holiday elsewhere, see What All Inclusive typically includes.

There’s a strong pool line‑up at Ivory Playa, ideal for both early‑morning lane‑swims and lazy afternoons:

• Heated outdoor freshwater pool – generally heated March to October, with a sunbathing area, loungers, parasols and baby‑changing facilities close by.
• Main outdoor pool – another freshwater pool with plenty of sunbeds and space to spread out.
• Children’s splash and play space – a shallow area well‑suited to little ones (depths and features may vary seasonally).
• Pool towels are available for a small local charge and/or deposit.

The real star, though, is Alcudia Beach, just across the road – a long, gently shelving sandy bay with calm, shallow waters and a Blue Flag for quality. Sunbeds, parasols and watersports such as banana boats and pedalos are typically available from independent operators in season, and there are plenty of cafés and beach bars nearby.
