Answer

Are communal pools in Mallorca worth paying extra for?

A communal pool can be worthwhile if you use it often and value shared outdoor space in a city setting. It is less attractive if you rarely swim, because you still pay for maintenance, cleaning, insurance and reserves through the community fees. In Mallorca, the value depends less on the pool itself than on how often it will actually be used.
