Magaluf is awesome in peak season and I'm sure the closing parties are the end of August. BCM used to have a 25euro all inclusive bar :)

Ah well sure we'll find somewhere that's right enough! Haha
Flew to Amsterdam a couple of years ago from Leeds bradford and pretty sure we'll be going again this year. Stayed at 'heart of Amsterdam.' Not exactly the ritz but good enough for what we needed just to get a couple of hours sleep each night!
Good stuff looking like it will be maga then. Yeah was chatting with my cousin last night. Him and his mates went and said something like you pay 25€ and you can get in any of these 3 clubs and it's free drinks all night. Said there was plenty of birds compared to lads aswell? Can't go wrong!
Did Ibiza last year that was amazing. A lot of my mates aren't going this year though so will be back on that next year for sure
Just found out my dad's booked Florida for September aswell. Family trip so won't be a mad one but still be good! Gonna be a good summer :cool:
Gonna have a look at dates and hotel for magaluf now anyway, cheers everyone :y:

If you are a loud mouth Brit with a six pack, like getting so drunk that you end up being arrested or taken to hospital then magaluf is calling your name...

Go on lastminute.com.. That's how i went to magaluf last year... Don't waste your money at mallorca rocks, totally pointless.. Pay for a posh hotel, to be in the room 6 hours to sleep each day.. Pool will be no better quality than any other hotel..
We went to a hotel called Marina PAX, 3 of us, 6 nights, All inclusive, £340 each..
Definitely go all inclusive, you would be surprised how much you will spend on food.. Budget £50 a day for food easily, that's without getting pissed up, so allow another £50+ a day for alcohol!

No, lol, just no. Go to a late deal website, and search.. You can easily get all inclusive, 7 nights, flights and transfers, for £400 each! Specially in mid august.. I went on the 14th last year..
Just go on trip advisor and see what people say about the hotel before you book.. No point in paying stupid money, for a nicer place to sleep, when you won't really pay attention to it.
Go all inclusive, use spare money for a boat trip, or if you're going for a week, I'd try to do 2!

Haha
Loud mouth - no
Brit - yes
Six pack - yes (ish ha)
Love getting drunk
Hate getting arrested
Never ended up in hospital :(
Think I'm gonna enjoy it!
Thanks smiith :y:
Looked at Mallorca rocks cos it's a party hotel and looks mad! Definitely not posh! Haha. Know a few people who've stayed there too and said it's good. Will check out those late deal websites and all inclusive. Definitely need to fly from Blackpool though! Which might limit things slightly. Might be a bit dearer cos there's just two of us sharing aswell
What was it like when you went on the 14th last year? Still busy and lots going on?
Haha more than a week is too much time off work really with me going to Florida in sept aswell. Plus I did 10 days in Ibiza last year and it nearly killed me!

will be no more of a party than any other hotel, all have music around the pool.. It will never be a full on party.. Plus who wants to be in a rammed pool..
14th was busy. plenty down the strip.. didn't go to BCM though.. Just stayed at hotel bar till midnight when it shut, then went to the strip, it was 5 euros for 2 drinks in most places

Yeah there seems to be mixed reviews about Mallorca rocks anyway. Looks like we could stay somewhere a bit nicer and all inclusive for not a lot more money! Think it's worth doing even if we still eat out a bit, at least the option is there of food pretty much whenever and pre drinks
Sounds good matey think that's pretty much what we'll do. Less than half the price of Ibiza drinks so can get thrice as ruined!

The whole reason i went all inclusive in Maga, is because the previous 2 years, i spent over £1000 in a week in ibiza, purely on food and drink, as i'm not one to partake in drugs, but some of my friends who are rinsed £1500..
Even if you eat out a few times, its decent knowing you can get up on a morning and smash a big breakfast, then you can start drinking whenever, and not have to have your wallet with you around the pool.. I only spent 150 euros there..

Yeah Ibiza is dear I spent about £1500 over 10 days!
Yeah will just be good knowing I don't have to go far for something to eat when I feel like shit!
Best option so far is looking like Martinique apartments
