Vista Sol Apartamentos

Stayed at these apartments in March this year. 4 of us went as a kind of celebration for passing out and becoming fully trained soldiers.
We spent a week there before we went to our new battalions. The week was great apart from the odd ignorant person that could tell we were soldiers etc.
When we first arrived we got warned by the rep that the staff accept no messing around and that we would be removed if we caused trouble. I just laughed as we were there to relax and wind down from all the training.
There are plenty of bars near the apartment that are all very friendly, however its quite a steep walk back so it’s hard work if you have drunk a few too many sangrias.
I found that we spent more time out of the apartments than in and Magaluf definitely has lots to offer people from all age groups. We went to the aqua park twice and just loved it.
I would go back but think it will be a few years before I next go back as I have operational duties but a thumbs up to Magaluf.

Just been to Magaluf for our daughter's 18th Birthday, stayed at Vista Sol Apartments.
What lovely accommodation, the pool area is clean with plenty of sun beds, not that we needed them the whole time as it rained quite a lot!
The rooms are spacious and well maintained. The only bit that was a bit rough on your legs was the steep hill that the apartments are situated on; not very nice to walk down when it is wet.
The pubs and restaurants are only a five minute walk away with plenty of choice, not many were open on our visit as it was still early on in the season and the rain put people off from venturing too far.
There are a lot of Scandinavians stay in the apartments, some of them very loud and not wanting to go to bed!
We have been to Magaluf before in high season and it is very overpowering, so maybe April-May is an ideal time to visit, hoping the weather is nice though!

Me and a group of young lads went to the vista sol hotel in march which is a quieter time of the year for magaluf.
The hotel was superb, price was very very cheap, while we were there they were busy restoring the outdoor area with a large pool and bbq area. The rooms were very tidy and spacious, nice balcony with a great view as well. The rooms had a full kitchen, fridge TV and superb bathroom.
The main bar and catering facilities downstairs are very respectable and reasonably priced too. I would recommend the vista sol to anyone wanting an affordable but high quality place to stay.

We have just returned from the sol vista apartments we had a lovely week, apartments were very clean, good facilities in hotel etc the only thing we were not happy about is it is full of Germans who complain if you want to play music before you go out, if you want to talk in your own apartment they bang on the wall and tell you to shut up!
All in all I could not fault the apartments for anything else but we were a group of 8 mixed age's from 20-45 wanting to go for a lively week but we got wrong for everything.
Do not go to the sol vista unless you are old or like to be in bed by 10pm cause if you want to play music while getting ready or you come in drunk you just get constant grief!!
The apartments are at the very top of the steep hill not to far to the bars etc but the area is not very well lit and a group of Spanish on motorbikes followed us up the hill one night thinking we were drunk and tried to pinch 3 of our bags by driving past really fast past us and ripping them off your arm.
They got one of them and when we told the hotel they did not care as we were English. They were not helpful at all then when we spoke to the only other group of English in the hotel they also the night before had a bag stolen from the same people.
I have been going to Magaluf every year for 5 years and I will be going back to the Martinique apartments which are great for young and lively.

4 of us went to the vista sol for a week at the end of September, and even though the season was slowly winding down we had a good time
Lots of mixed age groups mingled up and down the hill, and there were loads of bars showing English football as well as Peter Kay and repeats of Only Fools and Horses
You do get badgered a lot by people trying to get you into their bars, but just say no and you will be ok
We traveled around the island a bit and went to the lovely beach of Alcudia as well as marineland which is a smaller version of sea world. If you are really gambling mad, there is quite a nice casino, but they do charge to get in, though the drinks are reasonable.
BEST BAR IN MAGALLUF MUST BE MULLIGANS.

We stayed in the Sol Vista Apartments for the weekend at the beginning of October and I can’t compliment them enough, they were very modern, clean and well equipped.
The main entrance/exit is at the top of a very steep hill although it’s only about 20meters long, there are stairs that take you from the pool right out at Chaplins pub but the gate is closed at night. Located seconds from the strip and about 2 minutes from the beach!
It was a bit quiet in October with a few groups of British people (and a mad hen party from Falkirk) but mainly Scandinavians, the pubs were still open and the resort was buzzing. Going back in June!
