This hotel is right in the middle of all the action in Magaluf.
We stayed here on a half board basis and really got value for money. The Flamboyan Caribe is 2 seperate buildings. The Flamboyan part is the hotel with the caribe part being appartments.
The hotel is situated facing onto Bananas and Car wash night clubs as well as being next door to a few pubs. Very handy for falling home after a late night.
However at the back end of the hotel is the beach. The hotel has private steps leaving the pool area which takes you direct on to the stunning, very clean beach.
The hotel itself is situated a bit off the main road. The reception area is very clean and friendly however the staff were not very good at understanding English. We were situated on the first floor, above the entrance and facing onto the main street. The first night ...
I'm always on the look-out for different beers to try, be they interesting variations far from the norm or tried and tested formulas. From obscure little one-man/one-beer breweries, to multi-national conglomerates. Every beer has it's place - for some that may be straight down the drain - but variety is the spice of life. My philosophy is that if you don't try new things, you never know what you could be missing.
This is why my friends call me a beerhunt ---- or something that rhymes with it.

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Carib Lager
Advantages: Beautiful scenery, very friendly people and whales Disadvantages: Not really a beach island.
We've been twice, both times were via Cruise Ships, and late in the year. These were not big, fancy ships, just average Joe UK ones.
Dominica is a beautiful, lush, green, uncommercialised island that the locals should be very proud of. The locals themselves are very friendly and polite.
On our first visit we braved the enslaught of taxi drivers that rush to greet Cruise passengers. You just say where you want to visit and they tell you their price. We got together a small minivan (approx 10 passengers) to go to the Falls.
Our taxi driver was a young man who rented the vehicle. He took us up the very windy roads, stopping frequently to either point out things like pineapples growing by the roadside or local houses to explain their way of life or at a roadside shack so we could buy a cool drink. He spoke to us all the time ...
