A WEEK AWAY IN MAGALUF

11/09/2016

I'm home from Magaluf and had a lovely time playing in the sun for a week. I seriously have had a case of the travel bug this year and am already looking at booking my next trip away!

Despite being 23, I had never been on a girl's holiday before so me and my sister decided to book a spontaneous week away to Magaluf, Spain a few weeks away with our friend too. We booked through Easyjet and had the worst experience with them which really shocked me as I have flown with them before and had no problems. However, we had nearly a FOUR HOUR delay flying out and an hour delay flying home. There was also no space for our cabin baggage on the flight home which nobody could understand!


We stayed at the top of the hill on the strip of Magaluf at the TRH Magaluf hotel. We had no idea what to expect other than we was staying in one of the famous party hotels and it wasn't going to be super relaxing due to us staying at one of the top ends of the strip. In all honesty, the hotel was very basic and not the most hygienic of places. However, if you're going on a girl's/lad's holiday then do you really need a 4/5* hotel?


The pool at the hotel was lush and was big enough for everyone. You could either chill down the quiet end or take part in ball games and splashing down the other end. There was also a pool bar and an official BCM DJ who played some great summer tunes whilst you sipped your cocktails in the sun.


Palma Beach was gorgeous with white sands and clear waters which had quite big and black fish swimming around your feet! We didn't realise there was a short cut to the beach down some stairs next to Tex Mex restaurant so if you're going Magaluf any time soon then use that shortcut rather than walking right to the bottom of the strip!


The strip is packed full of clubs, bars and pubs and it was really busy by the time the weekend came around. We ended up getting sucked into buying tickets off the strip's reps for things which was a bit of a pain in the bum as it's hard to say no!

I also ended up being a proper Magalufer by getting my very first tattoo on the last day - 4 hours before leaving for the airport home. I'll go into detail about my first tattoo in a separate post as I haven't even shared this on my Instagram yet but I absolutely love it and it's something I've wanted for a while.

It was a great holiday but I am so glad to be home. There's only so many cocktails, cheesy boys and portions of chips I can have before I end up getting bored! Normal posts will now resume and I also have a mini vlog coming soon too :) X

  1. There is something quite amazing about being in the sea and being able to see the fish pool around your feet as you walk or swim within the water.

    1. It was weird as I don't like not knowing what's touching my feet in the sea but I was actually okay with the fish haha!

  3. I haven't been to Magaluf and it doesn't appeal to me at all really - but your post really makes me want to go on holiday!

    1. It's definitely somewhere where you go to party so I can see why it doesn't appeal to a LOT of people but Palma is down the road if you prefer quiet holidays with lots of restaurants :)

  4. I love this! I didn't live in the UK when I was your age so my girls' trips were all along the Eastern Seaboard of the US...and they were very fun...but yours looks fun too. Look forward to reading about your choice of tattoo.
