Frequently Asked Questions

Every day we're inundated with e-mails from people with a wide variety of queries. We answer every e-mail we receive but we've listed the most frequently asked questions below, which will (a) hopefully answer your queries and (b) reduce our workload!

What is the weather like?
Between May and October it is virtually sunshine all the way with very little rain. In July and August it's hot and often humid and at night it is very sticky. During the Winter months you will usually be able to enjoy some sunshine every day, but will need a jumper and/or coat in the evenings as it does get much cooler.
See past weather statistics for the date of your visit (enter PMI as the location).

We've heard that the laws have changed regarding smoking in public places - Will we be able to find bars and restaurants where we can still smoke?
Yes, the laws do now mean that some premises will be non smoking but many are able to provide areas for both smoking and non-smoking customers.

Can you buy baby foods, nappies and milk?
Yes. Heinz baby foods and other brands are available in Supermarkets and Chemists, as are most brands of nappies. You can only buy baby milk in Chemists. SMA baby milk is known as Nutraben in Spain.

How much is a taxi from the airport and how long does it take?
It only takes about 20 minutes and costs around 30 euros for up to 4 passengers.

Can I get to Magalluf or Palma Nova by bus from the airport?
Yes, but it could take a couple of hours. However, it only costs around 4,20 euros (per person). There is a special bus from the airport into the centre of Palma and then you need the Number 10 bus from Palma to Paguera (which stops at Magalluf & Palma Nova) and also the No.12 to both resorts.

Can I access my e-mails while I am on holiday?
Yes. You'll find that lots of bars are now offering an internet service.

I'd like to work in Magalluf or Palma Nova during the Summer months, how do i go about it?
The main Summer jobs available are usually in bars and restaurants. We recommend that you come out on a cheap package holiday towards the end of April and use the time to look for both work and accommodation. You will have to visit the bars and restaurants to ask if they have work available. It's a good idea to have some money saved to support yourself for a while as you will usually have to pay a deposit for your accommodation before you have started work. If you get it all sorted then stay. If not, just enjoy the rest of the holiday and use the return flight home.

Can I go Scuba diving in the area?
This area of the island offers some of the best scuba diving in Mallorca. MAD Divers operate scuba diving trips and PADI diving courses for all levels and offer a pickup/drop off service in the local area.
