Page 1 of Holidaying in Majorca

Just wondering who`s been to Majorca, Just after some general info on the place, Nightlife, Booze and Ciggie Prices, Attractions Etc....... Stopping at Hotel Yolo or Yola or something like that, Correct me if Im wrong!?


Any Info Grateful!

best part of the island i think is magaluf or palma-nova
loads of shops bars 4 miles BCM`s is a very big and loud nightclub (my ears were ringing for 2 days) we went near the end of season october we were there the week the twin towers fell to terrorists.
but it was still very lively...every shop sells booze (san maguel) most places done shots of spirit (chasers) when you first go in
the beaches are spot on but get a little cramed with topless chicks of all varities .
there is a few boat rides where u get to see the fish through a glass bottom`d boat and then you can dive in (very deep water but you just float due to the salt content ...do not swallow any it is minging)
there is a german nudest beach on the way back to shore that gives everyone a laugh (look there`s a brockwerter sausage!!!!!!).
scuba diving is avalible but u must do a 1 day course with certificate and a good offshore dive.
drink prices varied but the rule is dont buy at the sea front
eg diet coke 2 ltr 350pts seafront and back a few streets 100 pts
its all euros now but it will be the same in euroes now
a ltr bottle of bacardi was about 7 quid and the tabaco chane of stores were giving a litre of grants away with 1400 benson or a lighters and databank calculators.
we are going back this year too if all works ok.......hope this helps a little and if u need any more info give me a shout....baz

Cheers Baz,


Thought this post was gonna go without a reply.

Anyway the resort we are going to is Pollensa, The hotel is the "Hotel Eolo" and thats about it. B and B, Transfers, Insurance Etc..... 7 nights think its a 2* hotel £132 from Manchester... Didnt seem a bad deal to me. Have been reading about the place, Apparently the Bars/Pubs are only open til 12 midnight, Bit of a downer but there you go, Generally speaking it sound a nice place to visit, Or lets hope so anyway.


Just one more thing, How much Duty Free are you allowed to take back with you these days, I have no idea?


Thanks for the post
