Hi All
Going to Majorca the first 2 weeks in October. I have the chance of getting a good deal at the Mimosa Park, but I am concerned about its location. Our son shall be with us (he turns 18 on holiday) and he likes to go into Magaluf at night. Is it a long walk to Magaluf from the Mimosa Park ? and how far is the beach away. We stayed at the Marina Pax last year and it was close to all he needed in Magaluf.
All help appreciated

Thanks
Robert

We stayed the Mimosa Park in May 2003, it was a very nice hotel, our only complaint was the lack of air conditioning but reading the brochure they have added this.

It is only a ten to fifteen minute walk, you can either go to the front in Palma Nova and walk round the bay and up the hill or go through the back road.

I liked the fact that the hotel is situated in a quiet area and if you wanted a quiet drink you could go into Palma Nova but if you wanted a dance you could easily walk into Magaluf. We normally walked in and got a taxi back. the taxi was around 3 euros.

We went back to Palma Nova in April of this year and were 2 minutes from the Mimosa Park and we went to Magaluf every night.

Hope you have a nice time and find the reply helpful.

Thanks for all the info folks. We stayed at the Marina Pax last year and it was brill. But the offer on the Mimosa park is saving us over £400 so its very tempting. But seen it is our main holiday I just might go back to the Pax. The flights have been booked since the end of January, so we are now just waiting on the right A/I hotel to come on offer.

Thanks

Stopped there in 1999, wife got salmanella :?

Apart from that it was an alright hotel,food was ok, but don't think the poolsidesnackbar had the best hygiene, toasties being made in the morning and warmed to order. also saw quite a few stray cats and the odd cockroach around the hotel.

While we were there Scott Robinson from the boyband 'five' was there with his girlfriend and family, everytime a young girl or her parents asked for his autograph he kicked off, moaning and threatening to fight people when he he'd had a few sherberts

personally, I wouldn't go back, but I believe it is improved a lot since I visited

Off to this hotel on the 3rd of oct for one week. First time in palma nova, going with my husband and our 10 year old daughter. Can any one recommend any good family bars that are worth a visit? Even though we are going all inc. we still like to go out and about for a drink and a meal. P.S. does anyone know what the weather will be like next week?

Thanks donna.

I have just come back yesterday, weather was a tad disappointing. Pool will almost certainly be too cold but the sea will be nice.
Try Sams Nr Eastenders my daughter enjoyed it here, other than this you will find a lot of bars with shows etc on, its pretty much winded down in terms of catering for families and is now moving on to catering for the blue rinse brigade, but its not all bad.

Well what ever the weather it's got to be better than here in wales today!
Thanks for all the replies, keep them coming. We'll keep a look out for the bars mentioned. Also going to see the Pirates, and hope also to see Leapy Lee, saw him in Cala Bona about 5 years ago and had a great night.

Hi Donna,

We arrived back from Palma Nova last night, We stayed half board at Mimosa Park & realy enjoyed it. Large choice of freshly cooked food. Staff were friendly enough. Cleaners came every day.

Weather, after our first day, was realy warm & sunny. Shorts & T shirts at night. Theres plenty of bars for most tastes. We quite liked Karens bar for food & Banana Joes Disco Bar at night.

It was our visit to Majorca & it won't be our last.

Hi all,

Well we're back from a our week at the Mimosa Park. To everyone about to go I'm soooo jealous. We had no probs. with thin walls or moody staff, the rooms are basic, but very clean, and all the guests were really friendly, met some really nice people. The hotel may be 3* but the entertainment team are 5* plus. Andy Mac and his team Stuart, Claire, Becky and Laura made our holiday for us they all put in 110% for the whole week we were there. I really can't praise them enough, they made a good holiday a brilliant one! There are plenty of activities to keep the kids happy during the day and at night. I will get around to posting a review when I get time, but untill then to everyone going soon enjoy, and if you have any questions ask and I'll try and help.

Donna.......P.S the weather was great too..

Hi Donna

Good to hear you enjoyed your holiday. We go to Mimosa Park this coming Thursday. I was wondering did you hire a safety deposit box, and if so, how much did it cost you?
