A pristine coastal chill-out by day and a flashing neon playground for adults by night, Magaluf is Majorca’s party capital. But that’s not all the seaside town is about. Beyond the bars, international DJs and nightclubs, there’s plenty of fun to be had by all ages on a Magaluf holiday, both in town and by the sea.
All-inclusive hotels and brolly-shaded sun-loungers line the sandy seafront in Magaluf, stretching all the way to Palma Nova. There are cheap digs to be found, as well as high-end hotels and family-friendly accommodation, all catering to sun-seekers looking for a classic summer break.
Here to party? The busy centre of Magaluf is home to the town’s famous nightlife. Along the main strip that runs from Punta Ballena to Avenida Magaluf, bars, pubs and nightclubs serve cocktails and pump out music until dawn. A relatively contained area, it’s easy to walk to the action from your hotel – and equally easy to avoid it if the bar scene isn’t for you.
You see, Magaluf is no longer all about epic late nights. In recent years, the resort has made an effort to soften its image as a party destination, working hard to attract holidaymakers with kids in tow. Hotels are now better equipped – several feature kids’ clubs – and there’s a lot more choice in terms of kid-friendly activities and attractions, including the longstanding Western Water Park.
Magaluf’s close proximity to Majorca’s cosmopolitan capital, Palma, is a bonus for holidaymakers. The transfer from the airport can be as quick as 25 minutes outside of peak traffic, and it’s ideal for a day trip. Whether you fancy boutique shopping, fine dining or a spot of history and culture, there’s something for all interests in the swanky city. And it’s well-connected to Magaluf by bus or boat.
