A really gorgeous walled town. Lots of free parking on the outside of the walls around the town. We then walked into the walled town, loads of picturesque streets and lanes. Small boutique shops and cafes line the streets. Some lovely looking tapas bars etc.

Photos of parking…
We went at Easter - I’d imagine in the summer it’s way busier…there is free parking a stones throw from the old town - next to Ruines Romanes de Pollentia…
The town is lovely - lots of boutique/tourist style shops. You can walk around part of the wall.
The bull ring nearby is closed to visitors.
The Roman ruins seem to have their own opening times…not in relation to their website.

Set within the old Roman walls this is a great place to visit where you can sit and take in the atmosphere or eat at the popular restaurants. There is a museum just up the hill from the bus station all in Spanish though. If you go to visit the ruins of Pallentia (€4 each) across the road from the church you'll get into the museum free. You can walk along the top of the Fortress walls of the old town which gives some good views.
You can walk here from Port Alcudia which takes about 30 mins or get a taxi for €6.50 well worth a visit

Alcúdia stands as a testament to the island's rich history and stunning architecture. As a traveler, I was immediately captivated by its ancient walls, which date back to the 14th century, and the medieval charm that seems to echo through its cobbled streets.
The Alcúdia Old Town, with its narrow lanes, vibrant market, and iconic churches, tells stories of a bygone era, making you feel like you've been transported to a different century.
No visit to Alcúdia is complete without climbing up to the viewing points on the city walls. The panoramic views of the surrounding bays are simply breathtaking.
Eugene Vakhrameyev — Google review
We went to Alcudia for a walk and to visit the market. I believe it is open twice a week and there was a big selection of goods and local foods like sausages. The market is more or less the same you can see in other places, but they normally have some local food that I like to investigate.
Alcudia is a beautiful town and I recommend to go for a walk in the streets. It is not that big and no need to go for the very long walk. Enjoy the old walls and the church in town.
Rúni Simonsen — Google review
Alcúdia’s Old Town is a charming and historic gem nestled in the heart of Mallorca. Walking through its narrow cobbled streets, I felt transported back in time, surrounded by beautifully preserved medieval walls and buildings. Every corner seemed to tell a story of its rich past.

I have enjoyed holidays in Puerto Pollensa for over 25 years and look forward to simply lying on the beach near Hotel Bahia, Passeig Vora Mar. However this year the beach was not good, in fact terrible. The sand was full of sharp bricks and many people suffered cuts and bruises, some quite badly. Why? We understand that the winter time clears the beach of sand and it has to be replaced but this years sand could have come out of a builders yard! And it is expensive to book beds and umbrellas. Will you please assure that next year (2020) the sand will be much better.

Alcudia beach is a seven-kilometer-long stretch of white sand and shallow waters, featuring convenient amenities like boardwalks, restrooms, and showers. The crystal-clear water and fine sand create a picturesque atmosphere that's perfect for relaxation. The beach also offers an array of activities including parasols, sunbeds, dressing rooms, beach bars, volleyball areas, kayaking, SUP and pedalo rentals. Additionally there's an area dedicated to children with playground structures.
A family friendly beach, with warm water (at least mid-July), sun lounges and fine sand. The water goes deeper only far off the beach, making it perfectly safe for the young ones. Restaurants are fairly close, as well as showers & toilets / changing rooms. The long beach makes for a great walkaround. 10/10 recommend

Nice beach, went in January hardly anyone was around. The sand is dense so, it's harder under your feet and easier to walk on. None of the restroom huts were open when I was there (maybe this is seasonal?). There were some people surf fishing, some people with dogs, and others just walking the path or on the shoreline.
Waves were non-existant, so very kid friendly beach. There was some parking available where I went, but not many spaces.

"Alcudia beach – a long stretch of white sand that's simply beautiful. A must-visit! During the high season, it was packed with a lot of people, with restaurants everywhere and long queues at each one. Booking in advance is a must, and be prepared for the crowds during peak season. But, it's absolutely worth it to experience this stunning beach.

Yet another fantastic day at the beach soaking up the sun and a dip in the sea, plenty of places for food and drinks.
Would like to think that the estimated extra revenue of 120 million tourist tax would go into sorting out the loos along the beach wouldn't go a miss.

Alcudia Beach is a true jewel on the island of Mallorca, and our recent visit left us enchanted. This beautiful white sand beach and its crystal-clear waters create a postcard-perfect setting that is nothing short of breathtaking.
The expansiveness of Alcudia Beach is impressive, providing plenty of room for beachgoers to spread out comfortably. The fine white sand is not only visually stunning but also a joy to walk on, making it an ideal spot for leisurely strolls along the shoreline.
The water is unbelievably clear, allowing you to see the vibrant marine life beneath the surface. Whether you're dipping your toes in the gentle waves or taking a refreshing swim, the pristine conditions of the water add an extra layer of enjoyment to the overall experience.
Alcudia Beach is a haven for relaxation, offering a serene atmosphere that lets you unwind and connect with the beauty of nature. The beach's natural charm is further enhanced by the surrounding scenery, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking a tranquil escape on the island.
From families building sandcastles to couples taking romantic walks, Alcudia Beach caters to all, making it a versatile and welcoming destination. Mallorca's allure is beautifully encapsulated in this beach, and we can't wait to return for another dose of sun, sand, and sea.

Hidropark Alcúdia is a family-friendly water park in Majorca that offers an array of water slides, a wave pool and a play area for children. Although the park was built some time ago, its rides still provide great entertainment. The Kamikaze slide is particularly enjoyable and the tyre slide is amazing too. Visitors can easily spend a full day at Hidropark Alcúdia sunbathing and enjoying the pool along with exciting water activities.
Fantastic water park.. loads to do and can spend all day here..
lockers are €7
Sun beds €5 each..
After 15:00 the sun beds are free, but it’s well worth spending the money.
Very clean and the staff are lovely. Lifeguards are always about and watching, so no worries about the kids going off on their own.
Great Fun….
Linz Taylor — Google review
A great visit with my teenage sons to the Hidropark during our stay in Majorca. We all thoroughly enjoyed all the slides and the Kamikaze slide especially put a smile on my face every single time - just fantastic!!! The park is obviously built some time ago and is a little outdated (hence 4 stars) but it doesn't take away from the rides. The tyre slide is also amazing. I would recommend spending a full day there - it is well worth it.
George J Watson — Google review
A nice place but could do with some more signage to explain which rides need boats or matts and where to collect from. The staff there are really good and helpful but could do with some more to better co-ordinate the rides or to invest in some AI traffic light technology for better queue management. The wave machine was every 2 hours, a very popular attraction that would be better if it was more frequent.
Malcolm — Google review
Great place for the kids to run around and have fun, you can spend the day sun bathing and in the pool , water slides were class 👌
Sinead Lynch — Google review
Good half day out with kids.
1) Sun bed charges are outrages. Try to charge us (tourist looking) for €5.50 and next to us for €4.50 / sun beds.
Already the entrance fee is €28.00 and there are plenty of sun beds for visitors and I don't see the points for charging on top of the entrance fee. However to the far left you can access a free patch of grass where you can lie on your own towels.
2) You must try the SlideRang on the far right.
It is not much scary as it looks and it is quite a rides.
3) Wave swimming pool starts from 12:30 noon and every 2 hrs. We've left after 2:30 so I would not know whether they run for 6pm. It was a fun, unique experience that lasts for around 10-15minutes.
SIMON K — Google review
Get there early to get good sunbeds in the shade. The sunbeds are €5.50 but worth it.
The park itself is small but has enough rides for a couple of hours of fun for the kids. If you can afford it, get the fast pass it can make your day so much more enjoyable. If not, be prepared to wait as sometimes the queues do not move quickly.
The food is a good quality.

Oisin Gannon — Google review
Its expensive for what it is if you like to stand in a line in the sun then this is the place for you. I would say on average twenty five minutes of queueing for each go on the slides. It's all a bit dated, €5.50 per sun bed which is not on the website and no signs anywhere to let you know until your asked to pay. I wouldn't recommend it and wouldn't come back.
David Richmond — Google review
Not the best place I've been. Was expecting more than we got. Just a pity the weather has been cloudy and the wind has been terrible. I'd love to try do the place again if we could guarantee the wind would drop and weather would be nice.
The hydro Park is very clean and nice looking tho with bar there and a bar in the pool section plenty of lounges
Tommy Morris — Google review
The park itself is really good. Queues can be up to 30 minutes. But,it is a great day out for the kiddies. Few issues are; unless you're Spanish, you can't take food in, products inside are expensive. Can't wear a t-shirt in the pool, so you're forced to burn or buy their rash guards. It's a shame, if you weren't feeling like you were being ripped off at every turn, you'd feel more willing to spend more.
Overall a great day out, just be prepared for an expensive one
Tom Kearns — Google review
We had a great day here last Friday, slides were good and not much waiting.
Nice amount of slides kept my boys entertained all day, well worth the money. The little kids area looked good too.
You need to rent the sunbeds nd we only used 2 out of the 4 really as the kids only sat down for 2 minutes to eat, but if you don't want to do that there is a grassy area towards the back you can sit on, it's just a bit more out of the way.
Also, be warned, the floor gets very hot, you'll be doing the burning feet sprint if you don't wear sliders or flip-flops!
Emma Chappell — Google review
Quite expensive for a family of 4. The grilled food was ok inside, but you couldn't bring anything inside except water. So not a lot of choices. You could go out and in of the park, but there are not many places to eat close by. Not so many water slides, so you do have to queue everywhere. The wave pool was once every hour, which made it pointless.
Iulian Ursu — Google review
Nice day out. Plenty of food & drink stands, not long to wait for the slides, plenty of sun loungers, that you do have to hire. But feel €25 is a bit steep, if your not using the slides or pools. Overall, worth a visit for all ages.
Sharlene Elsey — Google review
We were very happy to have this as part of our hotel package. We were impressed with how the lifeguards work tirelessly to make it an enjoyable experience for all. They're strict, but it's good. Everyone is very friendly. Ice cream €4.50 adds up. As do the drinks... Great safe place. The only thing a bit yuck was clumps of hair in the pool, but I guess this can't be helped...
Julie Donegal — Google review
Very expansive (100€ per family) and you are not allowed to bring your own food (even for kids) and only thing that you can buy is hot dog (5€) and pizza.
But slides were okay.
There is no swimming pool, just slides and thats it.
Anyway, it is perfect for kids.

Platja del Port de Pollença is a picturesque sandy beach that gently slopes into clear blue waters. It offers stunning views of the nearby mountains and port area. Visitors can enjoy local shops and restaurants, as well as use of public toilets for a small fee. Two sunbeds and a parasol can be rented for 15 for the day, making it an ideal spot to spend a relaxing day soaking up the sun.
Fantastic sandy beach which gently shelves into the water. There's not many places where you can sit on beach with a view of the mountains. Local shops & restaurants are nearby as are toilets (possibly with a small charge to use). Two sunbeds and a parasol cost €15 for the day. A lovely way to spend a day.

I'll never travel to Ibiza Town without this trip planner again
Platja de Muro, located on the north coast of Mallorca, is a stunning beach that spans five and a half kilometers. The sand is fine and the water is turquoise, making it one of the island's most beautiful beaches. It lies in front of La Albufera nature reserve in the bay of Alcudia and is lined with pine groves.
If you're visiting Alcùdia, just take bus and visit this Spectacularly beautiful beach as long as you walk. Water is not deep at all and clear water swimming of course allowed and I loved it to be there inside and walk inside water for longer than expected. The only thing I felt was missing the public WC. Lots of hotels on the other side of the beach.

beautiful beach, calm sea when the tide is low it looks like a swimming pool this is a great time for the children, we went twice to the beach good for walking and there are tables with chairs you pay or simply lie down in the sand as many of us do. 😎
take plenty of water and a snack if you plan to stay for a few hours. In these photos, the tide was coming in, but you can go in if you don't know how to swim, it's not deep
this unfortunately was the best beach I found many others you can't get into the water or have a lot of stones. There are a lot of people, but it's very quiet. Thanks 👍
I couldn't take more pictures due to the topless people and children, there were a lot of families. 🙋🏻♀️

Starting from very good communication before coming to Mallorca (super fast replies!) to complete flexibility concerning the schedule of the course - the staff at AquaLife Dive Center is working hard for making your dives a unique and individual experience. When I spontaneously decided to go for two more fun dives after my course two days later - they were ready and picked me up just two hours after fixing the dive. All in all perfect service, amazing and highly professional staff and good equipment: 5/5!

Highly recommend this dive center. They’re very professional, safety is a top priority, and we had a very comfortable experience. It was my boyfriend’s first time diving and he loved it! We saw a stingray, octopus, shrimps, and many beautiful fish. We left with a ton of amazing videos from the gopro.

Very nice experience with the first in life diving with Acqua Life. They really take care of the newcomers, meaning one instructor per 2-3 divers. So your first dive is very smooth and joyful. Highly recommended!

Amazing experience i highly recommend this diving centre.
The instruction and his professional diving team we had where lovely, they where very reassuring made us feel safe and well informed, always checking we are ok. They started us off at the beach in the shallows where we could practice and get comfortable with breathing underwater once we where all ok we stayed under from there. It was such a beautiful experience
Thank you to the diving team Alice and dawid

Excellent dive shop and teachers. Felt safe and well cared for. Received my advance open water with Cas whose smile is welcoming, energy invigorating and none stop to fit all our dive needs in, and grounded nature calming. He knew where to find all the hidden treasures on the dives so even though we were earning our certification we still were able to enjoy the full dive experience. Highly recommend them.

This was an awesome experience. Small group with attention for the person and the dive. We got a great support and education as a first time diver and have seen & experienced more than expected. What an unbelievable experience this was. An absolute “must do” when you are on Mallorca and want to go diving with a friendly and caring crew.

Had a refresh with a try dive course after being out the water for 6 year, the team was fantastic, it was good to see how much information they crammed into new divers, Quick beach walk into the water and we were off for a good try dive. Had no issues with the group and everything went smoothly. The instructor kept in touch over what's app hoping to get another dive in before the flight home, but unfortunately, thunder storms kept that from happening. But that's good service from a good team.

Cala Domingos is a picturesque bay located near Cala Murada, featuring multiple small sandy beaches. The resort area is centered around three stunning beaches: the small Cala Antena, the popular large beach of Cala Domingos, and the locally known little beach of Cala Domingos Petit. Visitors can enjoy a laid-back atmosphere with good facilities, including a bar and several restaurants within walking distance.
Nice beach. We had a lot of fun in the waves when we visited, You can easily walk to the smaller beach next to it. We had no issues finding a free parking spot.

Was in September with my friends in this hotel. We came at night time, was 4 of us, so we had 2 rooms. In both rooms was a lot of woodlice, it was everywhere, even on beds. We back to reception, I showed the video, thy gave us other rooms. So next rooms, one was fine and second one again with woodlice and it’s wasn’t clean, dirty plates, cups everywhere. So they took us from there with car to third room. The third room was fine, no woodlice, much closer to the beach. But someone STOLE my bra😂OMG a bra🤦🏼🤦🏼room was always closed so could be cleaners. Nothing very expensive wasn’t in room so just bra🤦🏼😅I said on reception about that they said we can’t do anything, we are sorry. In night time receptionist was very nice and friendly and changed are rooms with woodlice without arguing. Sea very nice 👍🏻 food not bad, third room nice and clean.

(Translated by Google) Very pretty and nice little beach.
Tip for anyone who wants to rent loungers.
You need a lot of patience until the inspector comes by and collects the money and you finally get the "safe" unlocked.
“Insider tip”: look for a lounger near the rescue shelter.
The small beach bar looks nice and the service is very friendly, but the quality of the cocktails is not that recommendable. The price is pretty good, the quality is more like “you don’t have to have it”.
(Original)
Sehr hübscher und netter kleiner Strand.
Tipp für alle diejenigen die sich Liegen mieten möchten.
Man benötigt viel Geduld bis der Kontrolleur vorbeikommt und kassiert, und man endlich den "Safe" freigeschaltet bekommt.
"Insidertipp": suchen Sie sich eine Liege in der Nähe des Rettungshäuschens.
Die kleine Beachbar sieht zwar nett aus und auch die Bedienung ist sehr freundlich, die Qualität der Cocktails ist allerdings nicht so empfehlenswert. Preislich recht knackig, qualitativ eher: "muss man nicht haben".

Cala Sa Nau
Bay
Nature & Parks
Bodies of Water
Cala Sa Nau is a charming small cove beach nestled amidst limestone cliffs and pine trees, boasting pristine white sands and crystal-clear blue waters. It offers excellent protection from the weather and features a top-notch beach bar and restaurant. This idyllic spot is highly favored by visitors, especially during the summer months when it's advisable to arrive early due to its popularity. Many consider it one of the most delightful bays in Mallorca, with its beauty being particularly accentuated during sunset.
Wonderful bay. One of my favourites in Mallorca. I eent there on the sunset and it was just beutiful. I would everytime go again.

I'll never travel to Ibiza Town without this trip planner again
The Museu Etnològic dels Calderers is a rural manor from the 1700s that showcases period interiors and farming tools. Visitors can also enjoy tastings of pork products and wine. The building's decor and furniture are authentic, providing insight into how people lived in the past. Outside, visitors can explore the grounds and see various types of farm animals. The castle is rich in detail, with friendly staff dedicated to making visitors' stay enjoyable.
Exceeded my expectations. Authentic castle rich on nice details. People working here try their best to make it a pleasant stay for you. Very very nice.

A beautiful place from the "must see" category. The biggest surprise of our trip to Mallorca. We discovered this place in a guidebook where they praised this place. However, we did not expect how excited we would be. It is a charming place where time has stood still. Everything breathes a wonderful atmosphere that will stay in our hearts for a long time.
Milan Vavřínek — Google review
Wasn't sure what to expect here, but was pleasantly surprised. Inside the building was amazing and gave a great insight on how people lived in the past. The decor and furniture in the rooms did not appear to be set up as props, but looked as though the occupants had just walked out and left it - so very genuine.
It was also very pleasant to walk around the grounds and see all the different types of farm animals. Well worth a visit.
Dave M — Google review
Lovely house in the typical mallorca style.
We went in the morning before heading to Pollença and it was worth the visit.
I'm sorry actually that I was driving and I couldn't taste the wine from the cellar which is included in the ticket. It smelled like a nice porto / mead kind of elixir, and my gf who's usually very picky with wines said it's very good.
The house has all kinds of exhibits and it's easy to take you back in time. Felt a bit creepy in some rooms tho so even more enjoyment, as I love old creepy houses and rooms.
You also get to see some animals outside and the pigs were actually the cutest 😻

My visit to the Ethnographic Museum in Palma de Mallorca was an unexpected delight. We chose to explore this cultural gem on a gloomy day when the weather didn't cooperate, and it turned out to be the perfect solution.
Upon entering the museum, we were immediately transported into the captivating world of Spanish aristocracy. The exhibits vividly portrayed how they lived and what they held dear. It was like stepping back in time, and we found ourselves immersed in the rich history and culture of the region.
The museum's extensive collection is spread across two floors, with numerous rooms to explore. This layout allowed us to gain a comprehensive understanding of local life throughout the ages. Each room told a unique story, making the visit both educational and fascinating.
The museum's surroundings were a separate spectacle. The estate's picturesque landscape was breathtaking, offering a serene escape from the city's hustle and bustle. An old winery on the property added to the charm, and we couldn't resist the offer of a wine tasting.
To make the most of our visit, we purchased tickets online for 8€, a small saving compared to the on-site price of 10€. Plus, the convenience of free large parking made getting there hassle-free.
I wholeheartedly recommend a visit to the Ethnographic Museum. It's a unique experience that not only offers valuable insights into the past but also provides a backdrop for capturing stunning photos. Don't miss this opportunity to dive into the history and beauty of Mallorca.

Els Calderers, Finca Els Calderers Camino, 07240 Sant Joan, Balearic Islands, Spain
The Parc natural de Mondragó is a coastal natural park spanning 1,893 acres, characterized by grasslands and pine forested ravines interspersed with dunes. The rich birdlife in the park offers an opportunity for bird-watching amid the dry landscape. The agricultural activity that shaped the land has left its mark in the form of dry stone walls, irrigation ditches and waterwheels creating a rustic appeal.
The clearest sea water with loads of fish you will ever see.
The beech has very little shade so if you visit on a hot day you will be burnt to a crisp.
We did a 4 hour trip here and were not disappointed.

We visited the parc in early April and were really surprised by the beautiful nature.
The water looked like we were in the Caribbean and the first routes we wanted to "hike" were easy to find.
The signs on route 5 unfortunately were miss leading us apart the official path. It was not our intention to leave the official paths...
According to the advice signs you can see rare animals here (Hermann's tortoise and a rare mammal) but I doubt that they survive the mass of tourists :(
AND: It's a parc natural (!) which allow motorboats to come close to the beach in this small but beautiful bays...

Cute little beach. There is a small stand with snacks and drinks on the beach, which was clutch. It was beautiful, albeit a bit crowded but understandable since they have convenient parking. Great walk on the rocks along the beach! Only gave 4 stars because I had the opportunity to see nicer beaches, but don't be deterred- this is a nice beach. Fyi- no free parking, but is discounted in the later afternoon (I cannot recall if the discount starts at 16:00 or 17:00).
Victoria — Google review
Very big for so many people. You have to leave your car at the beginning of the parc. They want on that parking 10€ for a car and 2.40€ per motorcycle.
Then you have to go a few minutes down the road. You are gonna find there some bars and restaurants.
The beach is full of dry seaweed but clean. The sea is clear too.

❗️Please don’t forget to take your trash to the bins — including wet wipes which are made of plastic. Sadly, a few visitors left their trash, and you can see it everywhere — on trails, beaches, under the vegetation.
Otherwise, amazing natural park, beautiful hiking trails along the coast, lovely beaches.
Hiking trails are partly under the shade from trees, but there are also open sections.
A couple of parking spaces are on either side of the park, at 6 EUR as of 2023.

Wonderful place. Crystal clear water. Nice hiking trails, but signs are misleading. We accidentally found ourselves not on the right way. Parking is big, but place is popular so it could be full anytime. Beach is not too big, but quite nice.

This beautiful beach offers stunning natural beauty, with its soft, golden sand and crystal-clear turquoise waters. However, the presence of debris such as small cores and tree leaves detracts from its pristine charm. To truly appreciate its beauty, efforts should be made to clean the sand regularly, ensuring a more enjoyable and picturesque experience for visitors.

These two bays are the best in the area to visit : the best way by far is by boat , after that cycle or walk from Portopetro, it’s not so far. Driving is difficult: the car park is often full and it’s not allowed to park on the roads. But the journey is worth it; perfect beaches nice restaurant and bars, beautiful water, lovely nature walks through the trees ❤️❤️

There are two beaches you can access here.
There are a couple of small restaurants where you can grab a bite.
I also saw showers, but not sure they work during this time of the year.

Me and my girlfriend stayed in the hotel for six nights. The location is ideal when you are exploring Mallorca by car. Within 30-45 minutes, you can be anywhere on the island.
The rooms are what you expect: simple and clean. They gave us clean towels and sheets everyday. The host, Gustavo was nice and helpful. We arrived a little late for the check-in. It wasn’t a big issue, because we communicated with him beforehand.
Unfortunately I can’t say much about the restaurant. We wanted to eat there on our last day in Mallorca, but we didn’t know that the restaurant was closed on Sunday’s.

For the food -5 stars, excellent experience the first night, and I believe we left a reasonable tip. sadly when we returned on the second night we were told that no table was available- except one in the chilly doorway. We were happily accommodated by a different restaurant around the corner, and having concluded our meal, walked by and looked in- Not one single person was in their restaurant- It was completely empty. I guess they take booking in advance seriously, so be advised.

I can only rate the restaurant. It's just wonderful.
The location right on the square unfolds a romantic fascination in the evening.
The dishes are traditional Mallorcan cuisine with a modern delicacy: Vegan cuisine with Saitan! Great idea, better than tofu and taste close to meat. We put together a menu and drank open wine.
The owner lived in Germany for a long time and therefore speaks perfectly.

Sineu, a charming municipality in central Mallorca, Spain, is known for its unique geography in the El Pla region. The birthplace of Olympic cyclist Francisco Tortellá, Sineu offers a different experience compared to other villages on the island. A visit to the renowned Sineu market is a must-do where you can savor delicious Mallorcan sausages and puff pastries that showcase the area's authentic gastronomy.
The Santuari de Lluc is a serene monastery and pilgrimage destination that includes a museum and botanical garden. It has been in existence since the 13th century, showcasing the ideal balance of religion and nature. The botanical garden offers a peaceful atmosphere with the calming sound of water flowing throughout. Visitors are encouraged to set aside at least an hour to stroll through this large area, but it's best not to waste time watching their video as it provides minimal value.
Interesting place where the religion and nature aspects are perfectly in balance. For sure I recommend stopping by their botanical garden, it's calm atmosphere is unlike any other, with the sound of flowing water everywhere. Overall the area is pretty big, so make sure to have at least an hour to walk it through. Although I don't recommend watching their video about the Santuari, it has no added value and gives you practically no information, so you better spend the time walking around than watching that.

This hotel is far-far away from four stars. Old, dirty furniture and spitted carpets. In our bathroom was terrible sewer smell, which was sometimes on unbearable level. But the main problem is the hotel's restaurant. That is terrible!!! Overworked, unmotivated staff without any expert and without an acceptable level of language skills! Dirty glasses, small portions, sometimes no bred, salt, or olive oil on the tables because they forgot it. Very slow service! One evening for example we had to wait 1 hour and 8 minutes for the our soups and we got the our main dish again one hour later. After we left there our dessert because we couldn't wait more longer to get it. Breakfast: They don't serve warm food at all! I've never seen it anywhere. You can not get scrambled eggs or fried eggs, but not even any kind of sausages. It's ridiculous and unacceptable! The boiled eggs was always ice cold, and to peel it off was a real challenge.
I'm not the type of person who used to write negative comments, but now I couldn't miss it. Enough is enough! The management of this hotel should be ashamed of themselves.
Educate the employees, motivate and give higher salaries for them! They will be much more effective and the guests will be much more satisfied.

The road leading up to the Santuari, the Santuari itself, it’s an amazing setting and the prices for the rooms are very affordable. The rooms are basic but that has its charm. Beautiful hiking in the area. I didn’t eat there, the Google reviews for the restaurants are pretty bad, but there are some restaurants to explore within a 20-25 min drive. WiFi is not so good, so I wouldn’t recommend it for remote work.

I really like the idea to stay in a former monastery. The view and environment are breathtaking, it’s definitely worth staying for some nights and enjoy the time in the mountain. The price is good; room is spacious and clean. The only drawback is the room is not much soundproof, you might also hear the noise from the restaurant below. Parking is very cheap (if you stay for some days), and the parking lot is super huge.

My girlfriend and I didn’t stay at the hotel, we just visited the grounds for a few hours.
We started at the museum which was fascinating and educational. There were so many interesting artefacts and also some beautiful art work by various artists.
We then moved on to the church/chapel, which was one of the most beautiful churches I have ever seen, you have to see it with your own eyes.
After that, the botanical garden. Even though it may have seemed slightly run down, it was still nice and peaceful. You could also see the swimming pool from the garden which added to the charm of the whole place.
Overall, a charming and beautiful sanctuary and a must-visit if you’re in Mallorca!
Jasper — Google review
BEWARE: If you are seeking a quiet mountain refuge in a monastery, this is not the place for you. What no booking website tells you is that there seem to be summer camps for children here. Every night until 11pm large groups of children are playing soccer in the courtyard right underneath the guests' windows, running, screaming, singing, playing, clapping their hands.
It's great for the kids, they seem to have a wonderful time, so don't get me wrong. However, as an adult I have certain expectations when booking a room in a monastery in the mountains that sells itself as a quiet place away from the crowds.
This is information that needs to be shared with people before they book a room here.

All good here. It's a beautiful, spiritual place that kind of gets a very touristic vibe now. We were there for 1 night on our GR221 hike. The dinner and breakfast for 24€ per person feels a bit overpriced. No clearly vegan options for dinner, but gluten-free stuff and plant-based milk at the breakfast buffet. Overall the food was okay, for dinner you get to choose one "first dish" and then a "second dish". The room we stayed in was small but tidy and clean, decent bathroom, no complaints :-)

Absolutely impressing - these guys explain the sky with lots of knowledge and passion. We had three hours of watching the planets in the observatorium and with lots information; a practical demonstration by installing and explaining a telescope and comparing the views of the planets by different telescopes - but not only this, we got beautiful high quality handouts about the night sky, learned a lot about comets and asteroides, took photos and now have good advises for apps and links to go on with this fascinating favourite.
Their explanations made the astronomical things lively and exciting to us and personally we think, their work should be lots better honorated and supported by government - as this observatori, with these guys, can give an important contribution on investigation.
There might be 'bigger' planetariums whereelse, but you won't get the events on nightly sky personally and such detailly explained - this makes this place really unique!
Thank you very much for this beautiful and very impressing experience.

This place is a little gem run by passionate people who are experts in the field but maybe lack some commercial skills. The guys organize sessions about different topics related to space followed by observing a projection of the sky, which is more interactive. It could be nice to have more audio-visual help for the first part, maybe a video or presentation. The tour ends by observing the sky via telescope, if the wheatear allows.

Spectacular. It was slightly expensive (Spanish speakers pay slightly less but for English it is 15€/person) but the staff are all dedicated volunteers and the money goes towards keeping the facility open. What they occasionally lack in English language abilities they easily overcome with raw passion and knowledge - feel free to ask away and they will answer your questions.
Expect to enjoy a small lecture (interesting, I promise!), to use the telescope and to go inside for a 3D cinema experience. Something very different and a great thing to try if you have visitors or just want to try something new. Others had said it was hard to find but Google maps got us there easily

Very cool place. It is run by passionate volontiers who are very implicated in the whole thing. They make the experience even more interesting than it already is. Seeing the moon with the telescope is pretty incredible. My photo doesn't even come close to showing how cool it was. It was even ok for me to come with my puppy and the guides where very comprehensive.

We enjoyed our visit very much.
Be aware the times listed on their website are winter hours.
We arrived at 7pm in August to be told it didn't open till 8pm, other than it's well worth a visit.
They give you a lecture outside then take you inside into the planetarium which I found very intresting.
By this time its dusk, your then taken outside again to a telescope, we viewed the moons craters, wow.....
I recommend this for all age groups and found it to be good value for money.

Opens at 7pm Friday and Saturday at the moment. A great informative evening. A friendly fun and educational talk which was fine for 4 and 5 year olds. Then a look at the stars and through a telescope. Then we finished with a surround digital film displayed on the domed roof about the space age. A fabulous evening. Everything can be in Spanish or English request upon entry. Well worth a visit.

Torrent de Pareis is a stunning tourist destination that offers an incredible experience for visitors. The bay is particularly enjoyable during the winter months, as it is less crowded and there are no waiting times. It's recommended to visit between 10:30-12:30 when light conditions are optimal and visitor numbers are at their lowest. Torrent de Pareis provides ample opportunities for walking, hiking, and swimming, making it an ideal destination for outdoor enthusiasts.
Wonderful bay! Really enjoyed being there. We have been there in December so no waiting times and very few people. Recommendation is to come between 10:30-12:30 which brings best light conditions and least people.

Really impressive. For walking, hiking or swimming.
Sa Calobra is a charming village located in the Escorca municipality on the northwest coast of Mallorca. It's a popular spot for coach trips and road cyclists. The beach at Sa Calobra is a hidden gem, nestled among steep rocky cliffs and offering crystal clear waters that reflect the sunlight. Accessible by boat or through a narrow tunnel, this idyllic beach provides stunning views and a secluded paradise for visitors to enjoy.
ARTESTRUZ is a renowned educational center located in an ostrich farm that caters to children. The center provides the opportunity for kids to feed, pet and ride ostriches for an enjoyable experience. This family-owned business boasts a friendly and knowledgeable staff who are experts on the birds. Highly recommended as a tourist attraction, ARTESTRUZ offers lovely afternoons with these magnificent creatures.
This is a must see! The birds by them self are super funny! Staff is great; real ostrich lovers. It is a family business and they are real serious about it. It’s amazing how much they can and will tell you about these big birds. There is also a nice interactiv program that gives a lot of information.
The birds have a lot off space, more then enough food, don’t feel sorry for them, they look happy.
Pay a visit to the gift shop: amazing nice (ostrich) products!
Especialy for kids this is a very nice experiance they will not forget, they will forget all the days on the beach, but not this. And please buy the ostrich food at the entrance, it’s €5 but makes a lot of fun, you realy get to know the birds better!
About the price: some people think it’s to high, but remember, it’s these people their living. There are about 50 birds that eat, and need to be taken care of every day. Just pay and have fun.

Very nice place!! You can really tell the people there love their animals. There are a lot of ostriches and you will be told a lot of things about them as a species and also about every single one of them.
There's also the possibility to feed the animals. 10/10
We had a lot of fun!

We visited the farm on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Location wise it’s in the middle of nowhere but not hard to find through Google maps. You need a car to get here.
Entry: 15Euro per person
Feeding bowl: 5 Euros
The visit is worth for the knowledge and experience of interacting with the birds. It is a family run farm who care and take good care of the birds. Your helps them take care of these birds and their costs. The owner Uri is passionate About the birds and it shows. If you ask questions they are happy to tell you even more.
I enjoyed learning about the birds through the audio guides and watching them. At the moment it is mating season so it’s very interesting to see them dance.
I recommend this if you have kids or even if you have some curiosity for animals and birds.
Jambo Is one of the ostriches that is roaming around freely and loves interacting with humans. He is such a good photo shoot .
They Also have a cafe. You can order an ostrich egg for 4 people for 56 euros. They also have good drinks and coffee. I recommend having a nice drink and watching these beauties.

Brilliant place to visit. You can feed the ostriches and learn a bit about them by watching a few videos made available through scanning QR codes with your phone. The staff talks very passionate about the animals and the wider project of running the farm and shop. We had a great time and would recommend anyone to go there, especially with children.

Very clean and cozy with nice people around. It's a family business for 25 years. The owner shows you around and gives all the information and details about these gorgeous birds. You can feed them, make photos, buy some souvenirs and also have a meal. Thanks a lot for this experience!🙏🏻

Really fun and interesting family run business. Everyone working there was welcoming, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Great for adults and kids alike. We were there for just under two hours, but allow longer if you plan to eat in their cafe. The chance to get up close to the ostriches was priceless. We also loved seeing the hatchlings. Their business model revolves around tourism and eggs - the ostriches are not farmed for their meat, so some of the birds are over 25 years old. In fact the farm celebrated its 25th anniversary this year.

The Ferrocarril de Sóller is a vintage electric tram that has been operating daily since its establishment in 1912. The train offers a scenic trip through Mallorcan landscape from Palma to the seaside town of Soller, which boasts a charming harbor and beach. While it may be considered an expensive tourist attraction, the efforts to preserve its rustic old-world charm have been successful. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, trains only run once daily and return in late afternoon.
Great experience. We had to wait in the ticket qur for maybe an hour but the ride itself worth every minute. Great scenery along the route and the city of Sóller it is a must see.
Florin C — Google review
Great experience! A wee bit expensive for the shorter ride. It was €8 per person including kids when we went. The ride is about 25 mins from the port to the main town. But I would say, if visiting either area for the day, this should be done. It’s just a scenic beautiful experience and a convenient way to get from point A to point B and back again.

Very enjoyable train ride to a lovely little town. Get there at least 30 minutes early (earlier if you want the best seats). People who showed up right before departure have difficulty finding seats. The tram to the port is worth the extra money. Buying the tickets online was super easy.
Lawana “Mitchi” Walker — Google review
Loved the ride through Soller to the port. Sometimes the trams was really full, but since we didn't catch the first one right off the train from Palma, there was more room on the next ones. Coming back was really crowed. And we had to stand. But that wasn't a problem since the ride is not too long. The timetables were a bit confusing, but I guess since there were lots of people the tram ran non stop and was easy to catch this way. Loved it!
Aino-Kaisa Lonka — Google review
The trip in itself isn't much to write about. The tram line is either going behind high walls or next to a quite busy roadway. The destination on the other hand is wonderful. The waiting line to get on is long, you might have to stand the whole way if you are not fast enough to grab a seat
Gabriel Alexandru Cristea — Google review
The right was really nice, but if you canter in high season and the weekends. I suggest that you book the Tickets for your desire time way before. Also do not take there, the latest Tram when it's already and darkish outside because it will be fully dark once you write and you won't see anything off the whole environment and not a thing to keep in mind is when you're there with the last tram. In order to get back the main city you need to take a taxi for approximately €10 so calculated in that in.

While it's definitely a tourist trap and overly expensive, it's still a fun ride from Palma to Soller. Plenty of seats. Due to covid the trains only run once a day and return in late afternoon. Still a fun thing to do.
Paul Heller — Google review
Well worth getting this tram if you have completed the train trip from Palma.. this smaller tram is a nice experience and brings you to a beautiful port village (about 15 minutes).. I'd recommend getting off at the second last stop (the first sea view stop) its a short and pleasant walk towards the last stop, plenty of nice places to eat and even a small beach to dip your toes. Once at the last stop that's about it for the village. There seems to be nice treks and trails but we were just on a day trip so didn't go further. Its nice to be at the last stop (first stop for the return journey) to guarantee a seat for the return trip back to the beautiful soller.
Rua Cuail — Google review
I only did a quick walkthrough of this beautiful village
Note the streets are skinny and pretty curvy I'm not sure if it's all one way traffic but there were a lot of motorcycles which I'm guessing would be a lot easier to drive
Everyone I met were super friendly and very helpful getting me back on track when I got myself turned around like I'm known to do - the extra large circle I did to get to the church where you grab the tram showed me so much more than if I had just walked straight there!
One thing I found and I wish I would have had more time to explore was the botanical garden...next time 💯

A beautiful ride through the mountains and about 9 tunnels. It's not cheap but quit an experience. Once in Soller you have to take a tramride to the beach/harbour.(inclusive in the ticket as it is operated by the same company). Ride +visit will take a least half a day.
Peter Van Ruyskensvelde — Google review
Best is to book tickets few days in advance as this is very popular attraction. If you buy tickets online you still need to go to the ticket office to receive tickets. There is a designated queue to collect online tickets. For additional cost you can buy journey to port du Sóller and that place is absolutely amazing.

Soller and port Soller , nice day out old town square is nice for breakfast, lunch , coffee, cake, small little local shops. Take the train down to port for 9 euro 1 way, post is small again local shops and restaurants mostly sea food.
Craig leslie — Google review
Great train ride but the queue to get on was stressful.Although guaranteed a seat unless you queue early we were afraid the four of us would not sit together.At Soller there is a dash for the tram. My advice is spend 30 mins at Soller and allow the queue diminish. On the return there is a dash for the tram at the beach. We got there at 17.00 for the tram for the 18.00 return train to Palma.
Finally don't worry about sitting on the right on the outward journey as there view on either side are about the same. At the best view point the train stopped for those who wished to get off and see it to do so.

If the stairs are shut up to the platform, you go up via the side of the building. Small cafe on platform toilets are back in the main building.
Leave plenty of time to make sure you get a seat.
You have to go on the train which you purchased. You can't go earlier or later fyi.

Cala Deià is a small cove renowned for its beautiful rock formations and clear turquoise waters. It is a popular destination, particularly due to the presence of an excellent seafood restaurant in the area. Although it has no stretches of sandy beach, Cala Deià's rocky landscapes offer plenty of spots for sunbathing and relaxing. Visitors can enjoy a scenic drive to the bay, followed by an atmospheric hike down towards the water.
Probably one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen. Just the drive to this beach is worth taking the trip. This isn't a sandy beach, it's all rock but you can find spots to lay out.

Beautiful spot in the pre-season. Sheltered from the wind and good for getting into the water. Only a few jellyfish are a nuisance - but it works. Pitches on concrete slabs or sand.
Thomas Kaupert — Google review
You can easily drive there or hike, but place itself isn't that nice. Beach is small, pebbled with some algae. On windy days it is really hard not to lose your hat. Maybe nice for the the hiking, not swimming. Parking space is available a 150/200 meters from the beach. If you don't have time I would suggest to skip this place.
Kamila ?wierska — Google review
I honestly don’t get the hype, we went to this “beach” but it was a total waste of time.
It is a tiny rocky place that smells of algae and it is not even a proper beach like 10 people can sit on this awful rocks and algae and that’s crowds already…
It’s not a place where you can sit and enjoy the surroundings. We were lucky we found the parking spot in the last nearest parking so we didn’t have to hike down the hill to get there.
We had a look and returned as quickly as we arrived :) total waste of time…

On our first day on the beach in Mallorca, we chose to go to Cala Deia.
The water was not so clear as there were a lot of algaes all over. On the right side, were are the plain rocks, you can relax and the water seemed clear and good for swimming.
Unfortunately, one pink-purple jellyfish stung my daughter on the chest and on one hand. We exit immediately from the water, look on internet about advices and called 112.
We went in Valldemossa to the clinic, where the doctor was very professional: cortisone infusions and treatment for one week.
The jellyfishes were almost on every beach from Mallorca, different types and sizes.

Beautiful bay, but very few comfortable places to sit. Don't listen to the guard at the top and always drive down, so many spots on the way. Best early morning or during siesta time (13:00-15:00).
Edward Gregory — Google review
What an incredible experience, if you’re up for the short swim or rocky walk (the water came just up to my shoulders) and climb you’ll get to a beautiful view. Just be careful as there are jellyfish! It is a rockier beach and there isn’t a lot of space to lounge but it’s worth the view!
Elizabeth A — Google review
We loved our time here!
We walked down from the village after having lunch and walking around. Approx 20 mins or so to walk down, you can do it in flip flops but trainers will make your life easier.
The cove is lovely, 2 restaurants at the bottom and then beautiful rocky cove to enjoy a swim an relax.
It is a magical setting.
The comments put not many comfortable spots, obviously it is a rocky bay. But in truth your not spending the day here. A couple of hours and in truth you spend most of the time chilling in the water or chatting on the rocky.
If I were too do it over again I would eat in one of the restaurants in the cove, then have a swim rather than eating in deia village itself.
NOTE; if you are expecting to taxi home organise in advance (they can drive down and meet you at the bottom), or make sure you allow for the bus which will be at the top. You can drive but we didn’t. Taxi for ease.

In the increasingly vibrant and varied culinary landscape, one restaurant rises above the crowd, serving not only an unforgettable meal but also unparalleled vistas. This review offers an insider's look into my delightful experience.
From the first step inside the charming eatery, the quality of the cuisine was immediately evident. The freshness and vibrant flavors of the food were paramount, reflecting the genuine passion for cooking and dedication to the quality of the ingredients. Every bite was a symphony of flavors, a gastronomical tour de force that leaves you craving for more.
In the midst of their bustling service, the staff maintained a level of friendliness that was truly commendable. Even though they were visibly rushed off their feet, their commitment to providing a welcoming atmosphere didn't waver, a testament to their dedication to superb customer service.
Making reservations might be a bit of a challenge due to the restaurant's popularity, with bookings managed by a third party online. The establishment's high demand led to a long wait time of about 2 hours under the hot sun. But even then, the general consensus among patrons was that the waiting was worth the ultimate payoff.
Then, of course, there are the views. To say they're merely 'astonishing' would be an understatement. The vistas are as equally captivating as the food, making your dining experience at this restaurant nothing short of mesmerizing.
Now, to address the less glowing aspects of the experience - the shared facilities. The restroom facilities, shared with the nearby beach, may not offer the same level of refinement and comfort as the dining experience. In addition, parking can be a bit of a hurdle given its shared nature. But once you navigate these minor inconveniences, your gastronomical journey will surely make up for it.
In conclusion, the allure of this restaurant goes beyond its enchanting setting and irresistible cuisine. Its charm resides in its vibrant atmosphere and the heartwarming hospitality of its staff. Despite a few shared amenities that could be improved, the overall experience is nothing short of spectacular.

the beach is nice, however it is very rocky which makes laying down super uncomfortable so be careful & come prepared. also it’s a 20 minutes walk down the mountain & the hike back up is a bit hard. it would be nice if they had shuttle buses to help people get up & down

Once you’ve parked safely it’s a lovely place to visit. Go to the cemetery and museum at top of the hill for a quiet walk and contemplate life. Great views to sea from there too.
Aqualand El Arenal is a vast amusement park that features an assortment of exhilarating water slides, splash pools designed specifically for kids, and relaxing raft rides. Although the attraction itself is fantastic, some visitors have experienced difficulties communicating with the staff to obtain proper deals. However, after seeking help from the manager, they were able to secure an aqua park deal at a reasonable price. It's highly recommended to purchase tickets online in advance as you can get discounted rates for another park as well.
We were a party of 6, 3 adults and 3 children aged 6, 9 and 13 and had an excellent day. We went on a Sunday and was expecting it to be very crowded, but it wasn't and we didn't have to wait too long for the rides.
All slides were open, but a lot of the shops were not which we put down to covid. There were food places open selling pizzas and snacks.
It definitely was not dirty. All facilities were clean and all the staff and lifeguards were friendly.
We booked tickets the day before online, hired a locker to keep our valuables in and hired a couple of sunbeds so we had a base to return to.
There were lots of slides for all ages and we had an excellent day and made some amazing memories.
I would 100% recommend this for a fun day out.

Went in May so no lines. No need for fast passes. Practically empty this time of year. 7 euro to use the car park. You also have to pay for lockers if you need them. Cold showers available in toilet area. Buggy friendly. Food is VERY expensive. Slushy was 6.90!!! Enjoyable though. If I was going again I'd bring those swimming shoes. They sell them there, but I'd be afraid to ask the price.

Catastrophic experience, terrible customer service. Management doesn't care about your experience, they oversell and then all you do is suffer. Don't go in the summer, June, July or August, maybe September I don't know... Waiting in queue is minimum 45 min just to go on 1 ride sometimes even more. Thrust me, don't waste you money. But if you decide to go, expect frustration. Spend your hard earned money elsewhere.

We did western and aqualand in the same holiday (people usually do 1 or the other depending on which one theyre staying near but my lad wanted to go).
From palma nova/magaluf areas youre looking at an average of €60 taxi each way,forget the bus,the drivers dont like british so wont help you to plot your route.
Anyway- we didnt need fastpass (it was a monday,not sure if thats why) and only waited long for tornado & cobra).Its SMALLER than western,but the slides are good,and it has the one that you skim accross the water on a plastic raft,and a wave pool.
Lots of tube slides on inflatables which western doesnt have many of (for adults).
Food isnt great,or cheap.
I would NOT travel again for Aqualand when Western is 5mins away from where most people stay,and (imo) better overall but my 9yr old wanted to tick it off the list so thats why we went.
If youre staying nearby however,go for it.

Excellent water park for all the family. Lots of slides for people of all ages. We booked online in advance and had no issues. Most we waited was around 15 minutes in the middle of summer holidays. Only let down was food is very average and overpriced as are most waterparks. You can take your own though.

An amazing place with adrenaline fuelled slides, I went in mid September so there were no queues, had a great day overall and really feel like I got my money's worth. The food was very expensive though, and a low standard for what you paid for - if the food was better quality and fairly priced then I'd give this place 5 stars
Jack Burns — Google review
had a good time but ruined the experience , fastpass ruined everything when you are standing in line and people pass with a paid bracelet with which you can skip the line . why when you buy a ticket at the entrance, the employee does not warn that you are waiting for a restriction? for everything you need to pay for the entrance for food, for a quick pass to the hill, for a left-luggage office. why not put 70-80 euro entrance and do all inclusive for people's convenience ? and yes the slides are old and the water park needs renovation.

NOT WORTH THE PRICE
Went on a Saturday expecting to have a good time but we faced the opposite, I felt scammed as they charge for LITERALLY everything, greedy and overpriced park.
Be prepared to pay €6 for the parking, €5 for each pool bed(otherwise you’ll struggle to find a shade under trees to leave your stuff), €4 on a bottle of water or soft drinks, over €15 on junkie food, €15 on a hotdog?????
No vegan option or vegetarian available, apart from a €6 on a small portion of chips(SERIOUSLY?)
You might also need FASTPASS if you don’t wanna wait too long in queues (which makes no sense as your fastpass only guarantees your inflated ring but you still have to queue with non fast passers), and if you don’t have the fast pass you will need to wait for the few inflated rings available for people with no pass. The whole thing is overpriced, expect to leave a lot of money if you’re going with your family.
Staffs were great and super friendly, some of them could be more patient dealing with kids.
Park needs some maintenance, metal stairs for the slides and ground too hot in case you have no swimming shoes.
I won’t be back anytime soon
Antonio Ricardo — Google review
The park was quite empty, probably because we went on a Thursday but like every year that we go, it's always great fun. Basically no waiting time, we did buy FASTPASS but honestly wasn't very necessary. After we went on a slide, we'd go back to queue up on the same one and we could go again basically instantly. Will be back next year :-)

Water park is lovely and quite spacious. Great water slides and great play areas for kids.
However, food and drinks are very expensive even compared to UK/Ire prices.
There are not enough shades areas and you must pay 5 euros to rent a sun lounger for the day.

Recognized with the prestigious 'Travelers' Choice 2018' award by TripAdvisor, this aquarium offers interactive touch screens to educate visitors about various types of fish. The captivating 'Big Blue', Europe's deepest shark tank at 8.5m, provides a mesmerizing spectacle for all.
Wonderful place! My kids really loved the experience. So many different areas to enjoy. Peaceful and calm atmosphere, pillows on the floor near large aquariums. You can take your time and observe. They have a fun room where kids can draw and scan their pictures, and later on the pictures appear in the big virtual aquarium.

Brilliant morning out! Was the first in the door at 9.30am, and I'd bought the shark boat (11.40) and backstage (12.00) extras, so expect to be there for a few hours. Well worth the money, so happy to finally see a sea turtle! Loads to see and learn. Recommend backstage to see and learn about the marine 'hospital' and their work saving turtles. Our guide was lovely, extremely enthusiastic, and was bilingual. Would absolutely go again!

Nice aquarium, very interesting and educational. The best part is the biggest tank with sharks. 🦈 Food: big central restaurant with many options and a small green one with smoothies and pizza. 🍕🧃If you have kids, they are going to love it here because its pretty much kids friendly: there are children tours with really funny guide and outside playground. You can also take a pic with Ara parrot 🦜At the end, you can buy souvenires in really cool shop. I am giving 4 star review only because shark part was the most interesting and some of the really cool gadgets didn't work so we couldn't use them.

Amazing aquarium where you can spot various fishes - even sharks.
I personally recommend to purchase the ticket online as you might have a 15% off.
It’s a perfect place to spend a couple of hours when the weather doesn’t allow you to go to the beach or whatsoever.
I really enjoyed it there and took loads of pictures.
Highly recommended, it’s definitely worth a visit!

Very cool aquarium! My daughter and I were very pleased while visiting. Lots of fish and other animals and plants to see, great 3D movie, very atmospheric, clean place. There is a great playground outside, my daughter was delighted with it. Very friendly and helpful staff. It's a cool idea to take a photo with a parrot. There is also a small soft play inside. The only minus is the average quality of food in the restaurant.

Beauties of Sea and Ocean. Fauna and Flora. Brilliant organized place.
Easy access from motorways, close to the beach and airport. Recognizable location. Everything is wonderful except prices for food and drinks at relax area. 😒 Prices are same,, even more expensive then London and Dublin.
Rest of the things are 10of10. Need some more Tents and Umbrellas for relax area. 😌

Great place. So much better than we thought before getting there. Huge place with a lot of small and large aquariums with everything from big sandsharks to small seahorses. Loved it, the kids loved it. They also works a lot with animal protection and cleaning the oceans from plastic and other waste we humans put into the oceans 🙈😭
BTW. Please stop throwing things in the ocean and on land 🙏
Only downside was the restaurants. At the moment the food/menu did not match the rest of the facilities unfortunately. So this can be better for sure.

The aquarium is very nice. It has a huge aquarium with sharks and other fishes. Also there is a big interror playground situated close to the shark aquarium, at -2. They also have a nice playground outside in the form of a ship. We watch the 4D film (aprox 10min) with the whales which was really nice and interesting, so it is worth to pay the extra price. However, I expected the whole place to be more big for the price they have for the entrance. I visited other places, which were huge compared with this one and less expensive.
Iulia Boncu — Google review
We recommend this place to visit, because it is possible to see not only sea life but also different kinds of tropical species in a tropical section. Sharks are amazing in a big tank, corals are so different also. A kids room is available, but note that there is a limit of families inside the room so you should wait in a queue.
Buy tickets in advance for the Aquarium as well as for 3D Whale cinema. Different scientific attractions will be interesting for kids.

Visited Palma Aquarium and had a fantastic experience! 🐠🌊
The diverse marine life and captivating exhibits offered a fascinating journey through the depths of the ocean. From vibrant coral reefs teeming with life to awe-inspiring sea creatures, every corner was a visual delight ✨🤩
The staff's expertise and commitment to conservation added an extra layer of appreciation to the experience 🦑🐢
The immersive 3D cinema experience, showcasing the incredible life of whales, was mind-blowing. 🐋✨
Additionally, the shark boat adventure, featuring a bottom transparent boat that allows you to see sharks below you, provided a unique and thrilling encounter with these majestic creatures. 🚤🦈
A day well-spent in the magical world beneath the waves, combining wonder and education. Highly recommend Palma Aquarium for an unforgettable marine adventure!

A good place for small kids. I got it confused with underground sea world. They do have a lots of collection from fishes and sea life. The main highlight is Big blue where they have big sharks swimming freely. They do pass really close from the other side, so you get really good pictures too. You have to pay for Shark vision but it is a good experience to watch some sharks swimming under your feet. They do have a big cafeteria where you can have snacks and meals. The entrance has a little waiting time based on your booked slot. The place can be overcrowded during the weekends. We were little disappointed but the experience was good.

Fantastic place for an amazing experience with aquatic life. The sea life on display was really wide in variety and full of facts. The jungle area was also very nice. The infrastructure in itself is really good maintained...spacious and tidy. It took us almost three hours to see the entire place properly. The tickets are slightly expensive but totally worth it. We got a chance a photo with a huge parrot too. There's a group photo that is taken at the start which can be bought as prints. Nice souvenir to have. Would really recommend to visit this place when visiting Mallorca.

Surprisingly nice aquarium.
Had no problems with parking on Saturday 11h.
There are interactive games for kids (also interesting for adults).
Playground for kids (the one indoors) was just great! Kid loved it.
The one outside also looked super, with few bounce castles, but it was too hot to be there.
Overall good aquarium.
Spent there ~2,5h.

Tons of family fun. Purchased through the TUI rep, we got the silver package which included a meal, a free gift and the 4D whale cinema experience. Upon arrival you have a photo taken, so be prepared. I'd recommend following it through 1-5 [you'll know what I mean when you seen the map] - at this point we went for food and then made our way to the 4D whale experience. This was breathtaking. My daughter was overwhelmed with emotion. We have never experienced anything like this. Food was solid, the burger and chips was great quality. We then finished the aquarium off, with the whale room, shark tanks and by far my favourite - the jellyfish room. Would definitely recommend this to anyone considering. Also a great big playground with inflatable bouncy castles.
Chris Lidgard — Google review
I booked a ticket which included the little tourist train and aquarium entrance. Both the chauffeur of the tourist train and the staff in of the aquarium had no idea how to deal with this.
The Palma Aquarium itself is beautiful and, in my opinion, something you shouldn't miss out on.
Do bring your own food if possible. The fried food tastes horrible.
Also make sure you do not exit the aquarium the same way you entered it. You really need to take the stairs going down through the souvenir shop. Really weird.
My conclusion. The aquarium is totally worth the visit, but the organizing really isn't up to par.

Palma Aquarium is a marine park with 24,000 m2 of facilities where more than 8,000 specimens of 700 species of fauna and flora from all over the world live.
We paid 57€ (online tickets) for 2 adults! Beautiful and fascinating. It is amazing to see all the different types of fish and organisms that live in the ocean, especially the sharks!
Definitely worth the visit.

We arrived here 09.30 AM, because we know there's a small parking lot with free parking. We bought the tickets online: The entrance + 3D cinema + extra 2x snack & drink (54 euro). There were 9 areas. The 3D cinema was impressive but unfortunately very short. The noice of the whales were also very loud, so be prepared. We really liked the jungle with the waterfall.

Our family visited Palma Aquarium on 21st January, and it proved to be an extraordinary experience, surpassing any other aquariums we've explored in the past.
The highlight of our visit was undoubtedly the colossal tanks that housed an impressive array of marine life. Witnessing at least 10 adult sharks gracefully gliding through the water was a breathtaking spectacle. The aquarium's commitment to creating an immersive experience was evident, and we were particularly captivated by the unique Shark Vision Board. Floating on a tiny boat above the shark tank provided a thrilling perspective that added a sense of adventure to our visit.
The facilities at Palma Aquarium were top-notch. The entire layout was well-designed, offering plenty of space for families to explore and enjoy the various exhibits. Our little ones were delighted to discover numerous play areas that provided a perfect balance between education and entertainment.
While the majority of the facilities were exceptional, we did note that some of the restaurants were closed during our visit. However, this did not dampen our experience, as the available dining options still met our needs with satisfying choices.

Went there on a very rainy day and it was packed with people. Recommend buying tickets online in advance, the queue for online tickets goes really quickly. The aquariums were beautiful and they contaied a huge variety of species of both animals and plants. There was a big interactive room with lots of opportunities to learn about sea life. They take a picture of you at the beginning and on your way out you are repeatedly asked to buy it. You can take a picture with parrots for an extra fee but are not allowed to take pictures of them.

We had a great time and there was lots to see for us and our 2 year old, we went whilst it was raining so couldn't properly enjoy the outside jungle experience as on holiday we hadn't prepared too well for rain but what we did go see was excellent, outside koo pond and some baby sharks and barracudas s well as a shallow stong ray tankI think though there weren't many signs for that as far as I could see but still excellent. Only reason it didn't get 5 stars for me was that it was extremely busy both inside the aquarium so my 2 year old had to sqeeze in at times past adults to get a viewing spot and the food areas couldn't cope with that many so there were queues out the door, in the end we ended up eating when we got back to our hotel as we wouldn't have been served food before our coach shuttle arrived. Though good, I don't know if I'd go again.

Love it!!!! Absolutely love it! Price for the tickets is a bit much, but once you are inside - it's worth it. I spent 30 min admiring sharks. Honestly, you can spend all day there. The jungle is fantastic theme. Go,go,go and see.

Really excellent aquarium, with many species and varieties of animals to see, including an outside jungle with macaws which was unexpected but fantastic. The UK could definitely learn a lot from the layout and design of this aquarium.
Improvements:
- Need to install water refill points around the site so people can refill their bottles (more environmentally friendly) and not pay €2.20 for a water (especially being so close to the airport where a lot of people come/go to the airport).
- do not print peoples photos first without asking them if they actually want a copy. We refused our copy which was already printed (very wasteful), they should remain digital until the point of the customer actually wanting a physical copy. (Not very eco friendly).
- 10 sections of the whole site to see but very poor sign posts directing you to the next area. Needs arrows with numbers on.
Otherwise a 10/10 aquarium.
Alex Jones — Google review
Great place for families with kids. Clean, now very crowded (we visited in February), aquariums look as well maintained, nice collection of various fish. In the price of the ticket you have a playground (under rook and outside) included. Classical music plays from speakers, which is a nice change as compared to other public places similar to those. If you buy tickets online, it is a bit cheaper.

Beautiful and super cozy place.
To go with children, the experience is incredible.
Charming all the aquariums, all the marine life there sheltered and that well cared for.
Excellent change of atmosphere within the same aquarium in the jungle area.
Cinema 10/10
And now in times of Christmas, the snowball and the sensational gardens.

The Carthusian Monastery Valldemossa is a museum and residence that was established in 1339. It served as a home for monks until they were expelled in 1835, and it was then repurposed into apartments. The monastery now houses artifacts of historical significance which are displayed throughout the building. While some visitors have noted that the beginning of the tour lacks informative displays, there are plenty of interesting exhibits throughout the rest of the museum.
King's palace in a cute little village of Valdemossa. Unfortunately due to lack of time I haven't been inside the palace and the monastery but if you do, it offers a 15 mins piano concert for free. Also try the very famous 'potato cake' sold in almost all cafes in valdemossa😊
Soumya Jain — Google review
For your 10 euro ticket, you get a lot in return. A fifteen minute Chopin piano recital (starts every half hour), the rooms of the royal palace, the rooms of the 14th century Carthusian monastery, the city museum, an art gallery, the cloister church, and the medical pharmacy. Visiting time 30min to 2h.

The village Valldemossa is charming with all those flowers and plants in front of the houses. When we arrived it was very hard to find a parking lot. It's paid parking everywhere. We bought our tickets online and when you show the booking you'll get a paper bracelet. First we went to see the monastery, then the palace & little concert of 15 minutes and last but not least the small garden in the beginning. The view from the monastery to the mountains was breathtaking🥰

Nice museum overall but the start of the visit can be a little deceptive: very little information in the first rooms. After that, it gets better and the views from the rooms and items shown are interesting.
Bonus point for the piano recital and the very welcoming staff.
Charles Carrot — Google review
Beautiful village well worth the trip. We took the 203 bus from Palma, which departs from the main station and you can tap your bank card on entry and exit to pay on the bus. (Paying cash to the driver is more expensive.) The museum ticket €12 covers two complexes, (extra €5 for Chopin’s room). The entrances are located in the courtyard close to one another. There’s a piano recital every half hour and lots of historical rooms and gardens to discover. The old pharmacy was a highlight. The village has lots of shops and cafes and cute medieval streets overlooking fantastic views. There’s a taxi rank, but you’d need to call the number on the sign as most taxis there were pre-booked.

Valldemossa is almost certainly the most beautiful and representative village in Mallorca. It is the jewel in the crown of the Sierra de Tramuntana, nothing more and nothing less than a UNESCO heritage site. Walking through its streets, especially in winter, makes you feel an inexplicable aura fruit of the millenary antiquity of the area and the scent of the mountains. It seems that someone had painted every corner, every house and every terrace as if they were the scenes of a fantasy story. Sometimes it is even considered the most beautiful village in Spain and one of the most captivating in Europe.

We visited with a private tour group and it included a short piano concert (3 pieces about 15-20 minutes). We visited the church, monastery, Chopin's living quarters, and a mansion on the site. There are restrooms on the site outside the entrance. The tour and piano concert were maybe 1 hour. Overall very pleasant and worth the visit.

The cathedral is an amazing and awe-inspiring architectural masterpiece with a vast rose window and wrought-iron canopy by Gaudí. The interior features stunning abstract ceramic figures designed by Antoni Gaudí and Miquel Barceló, making it unlike any other cathedral in the world.
A beautiful Cathedral and well worth a visit.
But save yourself €4 and don’t bother with the audio guide. I never get these and prefer to just wander around, but my wife got them. Audio quality is fine, but an hour later and I’m still looking for the effin’ bell tower it tells you about at the start and mentions over and over again.
Some good info on it you might not otherwise read though.
Rant over, come and see this beautiful building, it really is worth a visit. 😎

We booked our tickets through getyourguide so we can enter very quickly.
The cathedral is absolutely stunning, the most beautiful stained windows I've ever seen! Very worth it even if the entrance ticket is slightly overpriced.
We were there on a Tuesday so there weren't that many people inside the church so you could really enjoy it.
The gift shop of the cathedral had some very nice items as well.

There really aren’t sufficient words to describe the true absolute majesty of ‘La Seu’, the Gothic Roman Catholic Cathedral located in Palma, Majorca. Worthy to note, if you possibly can then visit ‘out of holiday Season’. We were there in February Two merits, it’s quiet and the ambient temperature of circa 15C-20C (with sunshine ☀️ and blue sky) enables comfortable walking around the wonderful city.
Dai Davies — Google review
First the actual building is phenomenal. Such a beautiful building with its entirety of characters and strong features, surrounded by the fortified walls and cannons, over looking Palma seafront.
Inside is as grand as expected, from the gold guilding, the marbled floors and walls, to the heavily artistic tombs, crypts and pictures laid about the Cathedral. It's a picturesque collection of art, religious artifacts and history all within the impressive stone walls.
The admin however to enter is less than delightful, it's a QR code to pay through the main door at £18 for 2 adults less balcony viewings. However the QR code is intermittent at best, and once through can take up to 30 mins for receipt of tickets. We got sent to the main front desk 300m away then back to main door 2x as each "aide" said it was the others area to solve. Finally sorted when a manager listened and saw our confirmation text even though no tickets had come through. Over 20 people had this issue about us.
There is no facilities less toilets( it's a cathedral not a mall) however 1 small shop on exit for the gifts for the visit.

Beautiful cathedral, just breathtaking. The interior is quite dark, because the windows are all stained glass, but incredible. We visited in late June 2023, but were just disappointed because at night the cathedral is only lit up for a limited period (apparently for eco reasons)... but it was only lit up from around 21:30 to 21:56 (website stayed until 22:00) and only one half was lit up! I understand that in these austere times we have to save money + the planet, but maybe light the whole cathedral for 10 minutes instead of half of it for 25!!??

One of Europe’s tallest Gothic structures La Seu, is 14th century a golden sandstone building and Cathedral.
The ‘Cathedral of Light’, has 61 stained-glass windows in La Seu - the most spectacular being the central rose window, which harnesses the morning sun, flooding the building with beams of coloured light.
Ascend the stairs for an unrivaled panoramic view of the city and sea. Prepare to be utterly mesmerized by this enchanting experience. La Seu beckons with history, stunning architecture, and a view that etches itself into your memory.

The Cathedral just dominates everything around it overlooking the moat,the park and then out to sea. It's just huge and it takes a lot of steps to see it all.When you've scaled the steps to the top you can then meander yourself around the walls and then down into the old town. When you find the main door into the cloister's it will cost you 10 euro to go inside.Its truly amazing.

An impressive cathedral with fair admission prices. Definitely worth a visit. You can spend ages marvelling at all the paintings and stained glass windows. A truly remarkable piece of architecture that is a mix of Gothic, late Renaissance and Baroque! Make sure the sun shines brightly so the entire cathedral is bathed in a colourful play of light.

The cathedral was magnificent. Its architecture blew us away. The intricate stone work, just its shear presence.
We were able to wander around the outside, seeing the building from every angle.
We went on a Sunday afternoon, and it was busy. There were plenty of spaces to sit down. The Cathedrals outlook was also amazing. It was hard to know the direction to look, the building itself, or the sea, and the coastline.
Definitely a highlight of our visit to Palma.

Plaça de la Seu, s/n, Centre, 07001 Palma, Illes Balears, Spain
Located on a wooded hilltop overlooking Palma, Castell de Bellver is a 14th-century circular castle that stands out as one of the few of its kind in Europe. Originally built as a residence for the Kings of Mallorca, it later served as a military prison from the 18th to mid-20th centuries.
Located not very far from the city center and you can either take a bus or car. If you go by bus then you need to take some 500 steps to reach the castle. The castle has a good view over the Palma city and port. They exhibit inside the castle all it's history.
When you go by bus and reached by steps to the entrance, first go to the parking area where the tickets are sold and then you can enter the castle.
Gnanavel Chandramohan — Google review
Nice castle with exhibits throughout. The castle is located just outside of Palma on top of a hill. We caught the bus from city centre which brought us to the bottom of the hill. The bus going back is also just as easy.
It is a bit of a hike up the hillside but nothing drastic. But if you struggle with steps and climbing then it could be problematic. Once you get to the top, just stroll around and enjoy the architecture, the views and the history.
The price was €4 which I found to be very reasonable. Just keep in mind that because Palma is absolutely saturated with tourists that the buses can get very very full and you may need to wait for 1 or 2 buses.

Great view of the Palma from the top of the castle. On the first floor is a gallery explaining the history of Palma.
Cost 4€ at the ticket office - it is a bit of a walk from the entrance of the castle.
We took the bus to get to the neighborhood and hiked to a bunch of stairs to get here. Straight forward path but slightly brutal if you go during summer in the early afternoon when the sun is hottest.

Just coming up to the castle is an experience worth living on its own. The breathtaking views, the hike, the playground on the other end of the hike, the history worth learning… I could go on and on… the castle is kept clean and in prestige condition, the price of the ticket is just 4€ per “non Palma resident” visitor or 2.5€ if you are a Palma resident. Highly recommended.

A pleasant walk from the bottom of the hill, and a nice city view alongside the steps, The view is just mesmerizing towards the cathedral and city ports. This castle is one of the nice architecture, I loved it surely you will love it. When you go on top of the castle, you will fall in love with the place you are standing and staring at.

The little hike up to the castle is short and surrounded by nature (even though you're so close to the city). Once reached the outside of the castle you have great views of the Palma's landscape. At the time of this review I didn't have to pay for a ticket. Once inside, you have 3 floors, all converging towards the inner courtyard with rooms all around. Must go: the rooftop from which you can admire the beautiful surroundings!

The entry price is incredible for the amount of information there. €4 each got us full access to the castle and the grounds.
There's a history museum there too and told us all we needed to know about the island.
The view of Palma is worth it for the climb alone. It's not too bad a climb, with a shallow winding road climb or steps if you want a more direct route.
Highly recommend

Well-preserved castle of the XIV century. The location is located on the highest hill in the Palma area, so the view from it opens simultaneously on Palma and the forests that are located to the west of the capital of the island.
For unprepared people, I warn you that in order to climb the castle you will have to climb several hundred steps, be prepared)
In the castle itself you can see the Mallorca Museum (which briefly describes the history from the founding of the city by the Romans until the 20th century.) The museum has many beautiful statues (such as the statue of Venus and the statue of Gaius Julius Caesar. And for lovers of Greek mythology, there are also many statues of gods and mythological characters) There are also a huge number of models of what Palma looked like at one time or another, which also cannot be overlooked.
For those who want to drive to the castle by car, I advise you not to rush to immediately go up to the castle, but to go down just below the entrance to the castle, in order to see magnificent views of Palma (similar views can be seen at the top of the castle).

Amazing view of Palma city from here. Car parking is available at the site. Small entrance fee of Euro 4. Amazing history!

What an interesting castle. It's round shaped with a courtyard. When we went, on a Sunday, it was free. Not sure why. There are some renovations going on. Inside the castle is an exhibit on the history of Palma. When you climb the top you have magnificent views of the city and harbor. Definitely recommend visiting. Can drive and park at top or take a taxi.

Fantastic, historic place to visit. Excellent 360° views from the top viewing area. This castle is on the hop on / hop off bus tour route if you want to save your legs or you can walk up if you're feeling full of energy

The Bellver is a super beautiful building with historic value. The view and park are great. Just walk up: the air is sweet of flowers and filler with pine. If you really like hiking, walk from behind the ticket office to Genova and then up into the Tramuntana! From there, you can hike for an entire week up to the Northeast. I walked for about 5 hours. Amazing. The way into the Tramuntana is steeply up. But once you are there, it is amazing.

Beautiful hiking area with many marked trails. Just the right amount of people around to feel safe. At the top, you get a view of the castle and the city.

Thw Bellver is an immensely beautiful building. The view is great.... but the park is greater. Don't go there by car or bus - instead, walk up to the Bellver. You'll be pleasantly surprised by the forest and great sweat smell of pine and flowers. However, if you really love hiking... you can hike from the ticket office to Genova and then up into the Tramuntana!!! Yes yes indeed: you can start from La Palma and walk for a week! See another post related to that...

Well worth a visit if you're in Palma. Extensive grounds that are great for getting some exercise or walking the dog. You don't have to pay to park or get an eyeful of the views but 4 euro seems reasonable to get into the castle itself. Loads of stray cats wandering around but they're not very friendly.
Nick Toms — Google review
Entry was €4 and for that price well worth it. Not very much in museum exhibits but a very well kept and interesting castle with AMAZING views over Palma. Definitely not suitable for disabled or wheelchair users. Keep young children close when on the roof terrace as the edge walls were quite low with a very long drop. Toilets were available on site and lovely (as far as toilets go). This castle takes about an hour to see it all.
Brian Swann — Google review
Definitely worth the visit, the views are amazing! There's lots of cool info about the history of the city too. I got the City Sightseeing bus which includes entry and a few other things, although it would be possible to walk; I walked to the next bus stop through a lovely little forest, and it took maybe 10-15 minutes.

Very cheap at 2 euro for over 65s. But we there is no bus service there apart from the city tour bus.our taxi dropped id ar the entrance steps but to our horror the tather officious security guard tod us to go to the ticket office in the car park. Finally in it's was very interesting with striking views. After we thought we would grasp a coffee at the. Cafe but it was closed (it was 4pm). Sat on a wall and got an Uber.

The best place in Palma in my opinion when it comes about history . Lovely place inside&out. A bit difficult to get here if you don't own a car. The entry was paid right before getting inside ( 4€ ) . Lucky to find it open one day before Christmas 🙂
Marineland Mallorca is an ocean-themed amusement park that features various marine shows and aquariums with a diverse range of sea creatures, including dolphins, sea lions, sharks, and other species. Although the park may appear small in size, visitors can enjoy watching the impressive performances put on by the animals during their scheduled shows. The enclosures are well-maintained and provide a safe and healthy environment for the animals.
Just had a lovely morning with our little one. I agree the park is small. But the enclosures are great and the animals look healthy and well cared for. The shows are incredible. Especially the dolphins. When she is older we will be back.

This place is just magical and wonderful. Here you could see lives of many animals like, dolphins, penguins, seals, fish, turtles, rays and way more…But the best UNFORGETTABLE thing here was the dolphin show!! We also saw seal and parrot show. Highly recommend seeing it. We paid 27€ per person.
Hanka Kopuncov? — Google review
We enjoyed this place. 2hrs is the max we could spend here. We enjoyed the parrot show at 11.30 then the Sea lion show at 12.30 and the Dolphin show at 12.50pm. We saw other birds and animals and the lizards and snakes love to give a death stare to the visitors 😂. It's a nice place and sit a bit behind if you don't want to get drenched from the dolphin show. Recommend this for kids as our toddler (2.5yrs) loved it.
Mahaveer Jain — Google review
5 of us when there.
First we thought for the money was a little disappointed as it's is small, but a big but when you Go to the main shows of things like the sea lion and dolphins this well and truly made up for it.
I think best time to go is around 10 as when you see the first shows of all you can leave and have rest of the day elsewhere.
We don't have kids but if you do they would love it
Puppy Bird — Google review
A great place for a family trip. Shows with parrots, sea lions and dolphins are an unforgettable experience for everyone, regardless of age. All animals look beautiful, well-groomed. That they live in captivity, but they don't look like they lack anything. We really liked the park, even though it's actually small. Aquarium inside didn't excite us, but it's nice to see that part as well.
The food is not bad, fish and chips is a big enough portion for mom and child, the price of €13.50 is not overly expensive, but very tasty. The only thing that disappointed us was the bad ice cream and the terribly hot coffee, which burned me badly.
The pool with slides for small children is great. Shallow and clean. It is probably not interesting for older children, because the content is more suitable, I would say, for children up to 5 years old. We realy enjoy in this park.
Buying an online ticket is simple and fast and little cheaper, at the entrance you get a coupon for free parking in front, which is a great thing.

A great family day out. We loved all the shows. Plenty of things to see. Picnic tables and seating around the park. I would have given it 5 stars only for the price of food in the restaurant and the gift shop. I got 3 plates of chips a large coke and a bottle of water. It came to €26. In the gift shop my son bought a few souvenirs that fitted into a small bag and it cost him €107

Dit is een zeer klein park, met persoonlijk vind ik hoge entree kosten.
€12 euro 3 tot 4 jaar
€20 euro tussen 5 en 10 jaar
€29 euro volwassen
€20 euro 65+
Ik zou adviseren als je toch gaat om katten online te bestellen. Dan kun je meteen doorlopen.
Ze hebben schildpadden, vissen, roggen, dolfijnen, zeehonden, pinguïns, papegaaien en diverse vogels. Maar dat is het wel ongeveer.
De shows zijn wel echt goed en mooi.
Er is een gelegenheid om overdekt te drinken en wat te eten. Ook is er een privé strand en een speelgedeelte voor kinderen om te zwemmen. Maar ook dit is klein.
Wij zijn na een krappe 2,5 uur weer gegaan. Als we dat al hebben gehaald.
Ik zou hier niet meer terug naartoe gaan.

This is a very small park, with personally I find high entrance fees.
€12 euros 3 to 4 years
€20 euros between 5 and 10 years
€29 euros adult
€20 euros 65+
I would advise if you are going to order cats online. Then you can proceed immediately.
They have turtles, fish, rays, dolphins, seals, penguins, parrots and various birds. But that's about it.
The shows are really good and beautiful.
There is an opportunity to drink and eat something indoors. There is also a private beach and a play area for children to swim. But this too is small.
We left after just under 2.5 hours. If we've already made it.
I wouldn't go back here.

It was a very fun day out for kids. Loved Dolphin, Sea lion and Parrot shows. It wasn't crowded this time so we got to see all closely.
Snehal Dave — Google review
The main attraction there is the dolphins and sea lions show. Unfortunately, the shows last 10 minutes each. The rest of the sections are pretty ordinary that you can find in any zoo. The beach at the back of the Marineland is very nice though. Over all I think the price is too EXPENSIVE. Besides entry ticket, taking a picture with dolphin costs 20 euro and with sea lion 10 euro.
Asim Qazi — Google review
I was very impressed with this place. We visited mid week and arrived around 11.30am. No queues but we had pre booked tickets just in case.
There was a penguin feeding session as we arrived, and then we went to the sea lion show.
This was so enjoyable, and we had photos taken with a sea lion.
The show arena was big enough to accommodate everyone, and the trainers did an amazing job with the marine animals!
The connection love for these creatures was obvious, and the animals appeared well cared for. The highlight of the visit was the dolphin show, and 3 family members booked an up close session to meet and touch a dolphin 🐬 which was a wonderful experience.
The trainer gave lots of facts and information during the 35 min session, and the dolphin performed tricks. It wasn't cheap at £125 per person, but as a once in a lifetime experience we took the opportunity.
Ther was a small splash pool for children and a handful of sunbeds there, an aviary, reptile house, and a couple of parrot shows during the day. I'm not sure how crowded it could get in high season as went during half term, but all in all, we had a fabulous day, and I would definitely recommend a visit.

Overall a good experience which added to the holiday. They have a few shows, the usual dolphin, seal, parrot ones that you get most places. Staff were friendly, view from restaurant area is lovely. Only thing that lets it down is you can get around in about an hour, then you're just left wandering around if wish to watch the shows. We also paid for priority seating on the dolphin show but this is non-existent.

Even if the price and the transport for getting here it was quite "spicy" I was really happy seeing all the animals living in good, large , friendly environment/ place. I enjoyed at the maximum watching all the parrots outside of the cage. The delphine show it was incredible . The connection between the staff and the delphines it was incredibly meaningful 👏 🙌 ✨️ 👌 😍 ❤️ great job 👏

The dolphin and sea lion shows were great 👍🏼 the aquarium was rather small but it was nice to get to see the sea turtle. You can buy some food for the turtles or fish with 2x1€ coins and cute baby bottles for the koi fish for 5€ with 2€ cash back on return. There is a super cute splash pool for kiddos so pack your gear with you 🏊🏼♂️ The terrarium had a chameleon 🔝 and few big snakes but a part from that mainly house pets such as geckos and bearded dragons. The attraction was over all nice but for the price I was expecting something a bit more.

Nice park, birds, reptiles, fish, seals & dolphins. The dolphin show is amazing and worth the visit just to see the display. The display runs twice during the day, approx 11.00am and 4.00pm but of course times may vary depending on the seasons. There is a lovely sea view cafe/bar to sit and relax and access to a small beach. The cafe, park and toilets are all very clean. A 2hr visit to the park is long enough, but add on time if you want to eat and drink and spend time on the small beach.

It's the third time I've been here and so it must be good. Very clean, very well organised and great value for a day trip out.

All the staff were well trained as well and had smiles on their faces.

Wow what an experience! So many things to see and do here, dolphin shows, parrots, penguins, and even seals! Here you can get a photo with the seals and dolphins (prices were €20 and €25 respectively). There is a restaurant here were they sell drinks, ice cream, slushies, etc. There is also a beach only a few minutes away by walk that contains seats with umbrellas available for rent. There is a lovely gift shop with nice staff who can guide you to the item you desire. The trainers and staff in general were very friendly and kind.
Overall there is many things to do here for a good price, there are many things to see and do for all ages. (All shows are included with the ticket price and you only need to show up to the show and get a seat for each of them).

Carrer Garcilaso de la Vega, 9, 07181 Costa d'en Blanes, Illes Balears, Spain
Katmandu Park is a themed amusement park that features various entertainment options like electronic shooting games, mini-golf course, and a 4D cinema. The place offers a passport ticket which allows ten visits per person. Although the weather may affect some activities such as the water pool during cold seasons, there are still many exciting things to do in this park. The cinema rooms and house attractions are particularly enjoyable. Some activities were closed during the visit, but it did not hinder the overall experience.
Fun place for both the kids and adults. You get a wrist band ticket(called a passport) and get one entry to each event. If there's an event you don't want to do/play you can use that pass for another event. The 4D movies are fun, "the house" (upside down house)was very fun and had lots of different things to do. We also ate at the restaurant, food truck. They have foods like nuggets, burgers, hotdogs, salads, chips and tortilla wraps. They were good. Also drinks, slushies and ice cream among other beverages. There's a soft play park for the kids where you can drop your child off for a while and the staff take care to inform you when it's time to pick them up. You can also wait by the soft park. There's also a water Park area, which we didn't visit this time. But overall a fun day for the whole family.

Great and huge theme park with many various attractions for adults and families with little and older kids. Super 4d experiences, soft play area, splash pool, restaurants on site, pool tables, golf... Option if you are tired or need to leave, you can come back the next day with your pass. Staff very friendly and giving all instructions in Spanish and English also. Definitely worth it 👌 ❤

Very funny park.
First take a tour inside the up-side-down-hour which is a lot of fun.
Afterward you can try 5 x 4D cinemas, som of them with laser guns for extra fun.
There is also minigolf, kinder-play-area and laser shooting house.
The Katmandu Burger is great with so extra ketchup.
Have fun.
mrtnld — Google review
A very small park with about 10 attractions mostly 4d or 6d cinema or shooting games lasting between 5 to 15 mins each. The amount of time you need to spend on the park largely depends on the crowd or the length of the queue rather than the number of attractions within the park. On a quiet day one can easily do everything in no more than 2 to 3 hours including a game at the crazy golf and a visit to the upside down house. Personally I don't think the entrance fees are worth it but if you stay at the hotel on site you get entrance to all attractions for free so that may be a better deal.

You get three activities for 17,50€. Spare them for each day. Very nice mini golf track. The house was fun! Two player games. Worth the money.

Nice place for families with children. But the 4D cinemas, where you have to shoot zombies or bandits, can be exciting for adults as well. The Splash zone saved our lives in the heat and the mini golf park is really great, especially after sunset when the temperature is lower and the lights make the place even more beautiful.
Edit D?vai — Google review
The park offers nice experience for all ages, even for very young children there is option for playing. Waiting in the queues could take some time as for each attraction is for 16 persons only, except for the golf where the capacity is for more. Even though sometimes you might need to wait in line in order to move to the next whole. Could get very sunny as there are not a lot of shadows.

This place was amaizng. We came in end of march 2021. We bought the passport ticket. Which gives you 10 goes person. The weather was cold but hot. So we couldn use the water pool as the water was to cold. Which was a massive shame. The cinema rooms we loved. We loved the house. There is a lot to do. Its a shame you only get 10 goes person and not all the activities where open. Other then that we had a great family day. Was hardly anyone else there so no queueing.

Very lovely place to spend some time. It's mostly suited for kids or families with kids. Virtual shooting contests (shooting zombies, cowboys), virtual rollercoaster, watching 3D stories and my favourite going through "The House". Two places sell food and sweets. I really don't think you can spend the whole day there as you finish those attractions pretty quickly.
Edy — Google review
First of all, don't go expecting rollercoasters and thrill rides. This ain't Disney land.
What it is, though, is a great place to spend the afternoon or so. Think of it more as an attraction with a bit extra.
The rides are interactive simulations, and while they might not be the height of technology, they are still really enjoyable. As for the wait times, although you will have to wait at times, we found them not as bad as expected.
Food wad really quite decent, and we weren't long at all.
The best part, for me, is the house. Weirdly wonderful and entertaining.
Mike Naylor — Google review
No queues, not lots of rides but enough to do, house was fun, splash park great for little ones, interactive rides good fun, crazy golf is great 2 courses but not much shelter from sun so we only managed 18 holes as too hot, maybe do golf in the evening.
We enjoyed the day

An afternoon well-spent - staff is lovely, attractions are a lot of fun and if you buy a passport ticket you can go back whenever you like (within a month) to complete all 10 entries you have. We have yet to try the minigolf but I'm sure it's not going to disappoint. Recommended!

Avenida Pedro Vaquer Ramis, 9, 07181 Magaluf, Balearic Islands, Spain
The Western Water Park is a family-friendly water park that has an Old West theme. It features areas specifically designed for toddlers, as well as high slides and rides on rubber rings. Although some of the attractions were closed, visitors can enjoy unlimited access to the open ones on cloudy days when there are fewer crowds. The park also offers ample space for picnics since food prices are steep.
My 6 yr old, who has no fear - loved this. Loved the flumes, wave machine and big buckets that filled then tipped water. My 2yr old daughter loved the pools, though was too small to do any of the flumes on her own and adults not allowed on kids ones.
Food was quite expensive €16 for hot dog/burger meal.
Sunbeds at each area were €5 each.
Fiona — Google review
Entrance fee 30€, parking 5€, locker 5€ Not to mention food and drinks. 17/09 the weather was amazing, the park was not busy.
Entrance was fine and fluent, lockers they put everyone next to each other at the same time (still covid) they could spread the giving keys of the lockers more.
The park looks old and with poor maintainment. Leaks everywhere, spiderwebs, ants, tall grass. All the slides need a paintjob!
But the slides that are working (3 of them were closed) are really nice experience.
The lifeguards. I dont know how to rate these! The first blonde girl we saw was not wearing her mask all day and did not seem to enjoy working there, always busy complaining to her collegues instead of actually paying attention to the guests. Most of the lifeguards were friendly and helpfull and then we met Guan Luca and Paula, both greeted us with the biggest smile and jokes. And they made our experience worth that extra star if not this park review would have been a lot worse. It shows that if you have friendly staff you can get away with being greedy management.
In general I would recommend finding a cheaper deal and wait until out of highseason to visit the park.

I went on 3rd of October. 7 hours opened,more than enough time for fun. Bus stop right there, also plenty of parking spaces.
Beautiful weather, not too crowded, I bought my ticket online with a 10€ supplement of fast pass (which turned out to be unnecessary as it wasn't that busy) and 5€ for the sunbed. Another 6€ for renting a locker for the day. The rides are thrilling, plenty of them to choose from. All the buildings look like taken from an old western movie. Only 2 places open that sold food, drinks and desserts. Expensive, it's better to bring your own food and eat it at a picnic area. So overall nice place, but on the expensive side adding all the other costs.

Went on a cloudy day so was quiet. Managed every slide as many times as we liked,

Nice waterpark with good western ambiance.
I read a lot of negative criticism, but we spent there a funny day with 2 teenager boys.
On a Monday in July it was not so crowded, we had to wait longer at 2 slides only(Grand canyon and Black Hole),
the rest of the attractions had 'few minutes queue' only. Most probably during the weekend the waiting time could be longer, so you could benefit from the fastpass. FYI there are 'fast pass lanes' at almost all slides. I advise you to check it on spot first then you can buy one, if you need. The food was not bad at all, typical theme park food/price.
Be careful, bring slippers, the floor is burning hot between the slides!
And finally, to get a taxi at the exit could take time, but there is a taxi spot and the drivers appreciate the queue order - the clients do not always :(
Roland — Google review
It’s a nice clean park with up to date facilities. Smoothly run. The food is awful and double the price. The staff don’t give clear instructions , it doesn’t look like any safety measures are followed. Do t try the black and red tube slides everyone gets stuck in them. There are 2 -3 big rides where only fast access band people will make it. Unless you are willing to stay in the queue for 50 minutes/
Otherwise a nice park , pretty expensive but worth a visit.

Visited on Monday, no queues, easy to get anywhere, no need for fast track ticket. Tickets bought online are cheaper.
Food is way overpriced, for 7 onion rings you had to pay 7.90€ 🤦🏻♀️ for a burger and chips with drink 18.90€, you better bring your own food and drinks.
Slides were fun, tried almost all of them. Don’t bother to pay 10€ to water proof your phone cause they won’t let you to slide with phone, even tho it’s not mentioned anywhere on the boards of forbidden things i.e sunglasses…
In overall water park was very clean including toilets.
Car park costs 7€.
Miss Petra — Google review
Good for a day out a good range of big slides and a smaller area for little kids. Be advised to take plenty of water and a packed lunch because the prices inside the park are extortionate. €4 for a bottle of water (750ml) had lunch (chicken nuggets/chips, sausage/chips and a 9inch pizza with 2 small drinks) €45-€50 and it wasnt all that good. Keeps the kids entertained also if getting taxis back (coaches only drop off) leave around half hour before closing, the queue is long and its hot with little shade.

Big water park with lots to do for all ages! A plethora of (teenaged) life guards for children‘s safety. The western setup is a nice idea and the theme is carried out throughout the park. But the depictions of Indians wouldn’t be considered politically correct nowadays…
There could be more maps available throughout the park though. We didn’t receive one on entry but asked for one at the souvenir shop. There’s a list of attractions at the entrance,detailing the different attractions with a helpful guide on which slide/pool is suited to which age group / height. Like the non-existent maps, these lists would also be good to have more frequently within the park.
Many people recommend the Fast Track to skip queues, but as we were mainly at toddler activities, we didn’t experience any queuing. Also water shoes are nice to have but not a must. They can be bought at the Souvenir shop.
Food, drink, ice-cream and toilets available.

This place is amazing! Food is not to cheep but it's more then enough for the person. We spend here a full day activity in the weekends and was absolutely not busy. The park is huge and lot of slide for small and bigger kids too. I was afraid a little bit in the beginning but all the stuff was safe. There is a safety locker,we didn't used, we left everything in our backpack and left on the grass. Nothing missed. The toilets was clean and tidy.We left at closing time at 6pm. I recommend to spend a day with your family. The park theme it's amazing! The parking is not free,If I good remember it was €4 for all day.

And the fact you pay 30 euro each to get in to then get charged for a locker and charges for sun loungers isn't great but it's a great place all in all had a great day

Huge park with lots of rides. We went in August so it was very busy. Expect some long queues. Fast track is really expensive. Lockers are cheap but food is expensive. You can bring your own picnic in no problem. Overall, we had a great day. Bring some pool shoes as the ground is very hot, they sell them but cheaper to buy before you go.

Absolutely loved it!
Such a good variety of rides for every age. The staff seemed very interested and friendly, so I felt safe. The theme was brilliant old fashioned buildings to replicate the western times. The restaurant was very friendly and helpful making me an allergy friendly lunch! :) overall a really good day out. £30 per person and food averaged £10-20 each. Would recommend:)

The place is amazing. Really is. But 9 out of 10 working there seem like they don't care about customers. One girl and one guy where awesome and smiled. The rest looked at their phone or seemed irritated. Food is a joke so bring your own 😂. But still. The place is awesome and we will definitely go next time where on Mallorca

Great place to spend a summer day with kids. The park is huge, with 30+ attractions, multiple levels of intensity, from chill to radical. Many options to eat inside also. The only point is that they charge extra for the lockers and the tickets are already expensive. Anyway, it is worth.
