Cala Bona/Cala Millor - sister resorts that merge into one almost. Very flat so walking is not a problem for the less mobile. 
Thank you for your Help....what about Alcudia ???
Alcudia is again very flat but I found it a little more 'Englishised' if you know what I mean - just round the bay from Puerto Pollensa but it's really what type of holiday your after. Beach is lovely but the mozzies get you near all the lakes. 
The main thing that would put me off Alcudia is the mozzies....a few years back we were behind peeps who had stayed there and I have NEVER EVER seen anything like the bites they had....they were like massive boils all over them! You'd need very good insect repellant to go there I think. 
Palma Nova is very flat, around the Santa Lucia hotel
Can Picafort has a long flat promenade, it stretches for quite a long way.
Just a quick post to say that although Puerto Pollensa is one of my favourite places and has lots of easy promenade......
the famous Pine Walk is mostly crazy paving and is somewhat uneven in places due to tree roots, also there may be an overflow of restaurant tables onto the pathway in high season, and lastly it is not very well lit after dark.
However you can't beat it for scenery and atmosphere

Without a doubt Puerto Pollensa, October is a nice time to go actually it can still be relatively warm and it is much quieter. The promenade at the beach is flat and each to walk along.
Here are some picutres of it, http://puertopollensa.org.uk/images-of-puerto-pollensa

you're right, rossfraser, there is a long length of flat promenade in Puerto Pollensa, but Gunner did specifically mention the Pine Walk.
Lovely pics
