I went to Magaluf last summer with a group of friends and we had a great time. The night life is amazing, and one of the major plus-sides to magaluf is that everything is very cheap.

The best club there, BCM, charges a 30 euro entrance fee, but is open all night and once you are in all your drinks are free and you are given gifts such as t-shirts.

But BCM is not the only place worth visiting on a night out. There are plenty of other great places, such as Boomerang, and the smaller bars are always a good choice to start off a night because they charge ridiculously low prices in order to attract customers, usually giving away free drinks in the process.

That said, Magaluf is not for everyone. I would not recommend it for anyone going on holiday to relax, because the whole place is very noisy.

Neither would I recommend it for anyone trying to capture the culture of Spain, because it is filled with English tourists.

There is a slight drug culture in Magaluf, chances are you will be approached by someone trying to sell you drugs. Usually you will be fine as long as you say "no thanks" and keep moving.

Along with the low price of everything comes a certain price to pay. Many of the hotels are unclean, and the chances of sleeping at night are minimal because chances are you will have drunken teenagers running around the hotels, shouting, screaming and god-knows what else.

That said, if you are looking for a place to go for a party holiday, look no further. This is the place for you. The night-life here is right up with other places in the world, such as Zante, or Ibiza.

If your idea of a holiday consists of a bit more culture, and active day times rather than active night times, it would probably be best to look elsewhere.
