Fergus Club Palmanova Park

"Hôtel Location was in Palmanova mallorca which was only 30 mins by bus to Palma the capital Of mallorca. The bus ride cost 4.50 for 1 adult. Our baby travelled free as she was 2 years old. A taxi ride from palma back to the hotel was 25 euros cheaper than an Uber that was askıng for 35 euros Surprisingly. Glad I could support the local taxi. The beach was literally between 7 to 12 mins walk from the hotel., depending on which route you take The atmosphere at the hotel was good. It was all inclusive package and food and drinks was good. Entertainment was on most nights. Can be loud though and disturbing if you trying to sleep early or have a baby. We even had a room facing the front entrance of the hotel and can hear the party going on at the back. Room was big and spacious but a bit dated. I think they could do with a revamp to warrant their 4 stars. The extractor fan in our bathroom was not working. And walking through the door of the room, you are greeted with 2 sinks his and hers, instead of it being found in the bathroom, which had room to accommodate it. Our rooms were cleaned everyday, although we had to remind the maid for fresh sheets and towel, if not it doesn't get changed. Service was generally good, we needed a kettle and asked for it at the reception, no fuss at all. The staff is knowledgeable and also helpful with giving directions and guiding you to local services I.e supermarket farmacia or restaurant and bust stop around the hotel. We didn't use the pool facility or children pool facility to comment on that as we were at the beach everyday. But the kids pool gets really busy we have noticed when we checked it. You have to get there early to get a space as the deck chair it gets taken up quick. You might end up with a chair at the far back but your child is in the pool 15 metres in front, not ideal."
