FERGUS Club Palmanova Park

This week we are staying at Fergus Club in Spain. It is a plesant stay! We are with 5, three kids (10-8-6). This hotel is very nice for families. The people of the entertainment for the kids are really sweet! Matthias, Minu, Lorenzo, Maritza, Sergio and the others- they know all the names of the kids, are enthousiastic, creativ, work with eachother and just really sweet and hard working every day, all day. From volleybal, to football, to the rules in the game-room, but mostly the high fives and smiles When they just walk by. Also a shout out to the staf who take care of cleaning the rooms (who our daughter gave them flowers and you see they apreciate it), till terras staf, the very nice smile of Armando while he is picking up our plate after diner, the chefs of the kitchen who prepare every meal. Bartender Christian. Javier who looks like an all rounder on the terras. And the funny improvisation qualities of the bingo lady! We still have a couple days left, but I can already tell, the staf is very nice at this moment! Aswell we enjoy the pool, the bed is good to sleep in and the shower is nice to stand under. Thx already to make this trip like this.

Just back home today had a lovely time. We usually go away June time and spend a bigger budget so thought we would experiment with a cheaper alternative earlier in the year, paid 1k for 2 adults one (free child 14) for week in Easter holidays UK with Easyjet and it definitely paid off. We opted for here over the Fergus club Europa after reading the reviews on both and happy with our decision. Positives.... Lovely clean hotel. Our room was cleaned daily and beds made. Towels changed if you leave them out but we were happy to reuse. Very comfy beds though could do with more pillows! Good range of buffet food especially breakfast and tea (not a huge blended soup fan but the veg soup was lovely) and was always pizza and chips for any fussy eaters and dinner and tea. Decent entertainment very varied with music, circus, karaoke, magic (who knew our favourite of the week would turn out to be Mr Bubble) Hard working staff all over hotel especially the animation team but not at all pushy just friendly... Enjoyed my daily aqua fit. Self serve soft drinks, hot drinks and beer (with decent size reusable plastic beakers) Rarely a queue at the bar Comfy sun loungers that don't tip Lovely sunny weather Nice pool never too busy (we only used main pool not kids) Nice big balconies (ours overlooked front of hotel above the Irish pub but was good for evening sun) Nice walking distance to beach (5-10 mins max) then lovely walk all along the promenade to Magalluf.... Hear the noise and turn back Lovely beach side bar turtle beach does fab giant cocktails.... Tipsy turtle was lovely... Not cheap at 13 euro but worth it Lovely sandy beach (we just used our towels but it's 20 euro for 2 loungers/umbrella/locker) Nice swim in the sea with snorkel to see the fishes Nice trip on pedalos (20 euro for 1 hour... They also take card) Lovely little cookie type biscuits at snack and restaurant 😋 Tedi (like home bargains) and lidl 2 minute walk out front of hotel or Lots of local type spar and corner shops within a few minutes walk. Negatives.... Cocktails.... Don't bother... They pre made in a machine and all taste of weak juice just ask for what you would like and staff happy to make it. We enjoyed our daily vodka slush, vodka lime soda, spirits and mixer and they also do cava. Can only get 2 at a time which is a pain when 3 of you but mostly they did give us 3.. They seem to have vodka, gin, brandy, whisky, local version of baileys, malibu, tia Maria, rum dark and white Rose, red, white wines and sangria Snack bar... We found it OK but it is basic it does the job for lunchtime, always pizza, burgers, hot dogs, chips, pasta and salad. You can go to restaurant for lunch but we never did. Noisy neighbours arriving part way through the week on both sides seemed to enjoy partying on their balconies . Had a lovely quiet first half of the week so just our bad luck. Mostly families and couples. Sun lounger gate isn't a big issue or wasn't in April. My other half got up every morning about 7/7.30am and would sit by the pool with our towels. He enjoyed the quiet start. Apparently you are supposed to wait until 9.30am but many put their towels out and went back to bed, others stayed and it's absolutely fine to go to breakfast or lunch and leave them and come back. General rule is 40 minutes but other than a few mornings when towels were removed never saw the pool staff stick to this. Definitely if you are happy to sit anywhere was many loungers still available after 9am. Inflatables not allowed in the pool.... The type with 2 cushions and net in between seem OK but no big lilo or donut types. Balls, baby floats, noodles, all absolutely fine. I think the lifeguard did like his whistle first few days 😂 We would definitely come back at the right price. It was far better than we expected. We have a 14 year old so didn't try kids club or kids pool. Also definitely the quieter side of Palmanova which is good! Would not want to be the side nearer Magalluf!

5-10 minute walk from the beach. Such value for money. Lovely hotel for the price, fantastic entertainment and can not fault the hotel 1 bit. Had a week with the famil, 4 adults and a 2 year old and loved every second

For what we paid we couldn’t fault our stay at all! Rooms were a good size, modern and cleaned well. Only odd thing are the sinks in the bedroom and lack of coat hangers! The pool areas were clean and tidy. We didn’t struggle for sun beds but I can imagine there wouldn’t be enough in high season. The food was nicer than I expected! Could’ve been a bit warmer on some days but always something enjoyable to eat. The lager on all inclusive is san Miguel which you pour yourself which was a win! The bouncy thing in the pool and slides great for the kids. Entertainment is ok. The staff work really hard but with what must be a limited budget but again for what we paid it was good. If you like Indian food I highly recommend Jaipur which is about a ten minute walk from the hotel. They do a deal where for 2 you have a mixed starter of pakora, chicken tikka, onion bhaji and vegetable samosa, a rice of your choice, 2 curries of your choice, a naan bread of your choice and a bottle of wine for 40 euros! Food was absolutely stunning and huge portions. Fantastic value for money! Already looking to book to go back same time next year as found a bargain again!

We are on the last day of a weeks holiday with our large family. We have had a fabulous week. All the staff have been kind and welcoming. The main Buffet Jefe was an absolute gem ensuring we always had a table sat together. The staff are welcoming and efficient. The food is great. Lots of choice, but i agree with other reviews, sometimes its stone cold. This is dissapointing as the choice and themes are very nice. The pool areas are clean and tidy. The water is cold, but its April, so we expected that. Great for a refreshing cool off. The kids loved the splash park and the snack bar. Lots of child friendly choice. Rooms cleaned daily at a high standard. We didnt watch any entertainment, which is outside. we chose to use the Irish bar on site as the evenings outside were a bit chilly. Sure this is not the case later on in the year. The town and beach a 10 min walk away which was fine for us, a nice easy stroll. Beach was lovely too again clean. Thank you to all of you at the Club Fegus. We had a wonderful holiday and would reccommend to others 😀

An honest review aimed at helping potential bookers to this hotel. This hotel is supposedly a 4-star hotel - it isn’t. It’s a 3-star hotel straight up. We won’t be coming back, and frankly am surprised this hotel appears to be well recommended. Good bits: Location is good, short walk into Palma Nova. Rooms are decent sizes. Rooms are well cleaned. Half decent facilities for families, inc both pools. Bad bits - Several major issues… Air conditioning: This hotel is supposedly to have air conditioning. The system didn’t work while we were there for five nights. It only blew out hot air. We asked about this every day and were given different answers every time. First, it was reported as a fault and they sent for a technician that never arrived. Asked again. We were told it doesn’t work throughout the hotel because it’s been ‘cool’ weather. We were there in April, and though it was cold the week before, it was mid 20s during the time we were there. No aircon throughout, not just in our room. I seriously wouldn’t trust it working in the summer. The system is pretty old. No aircon was awful, but what was worst was the poor handling of it by staff. Food poisoning: The food was consistently not cooked throughout, including raw turkey and chicken skewers served. This happened a few times and was reported to staff. We thought it was a one off at first, but checked on a hotel Facebook group and it seems this was a reoccurring thing during our time there. To further reinforce that, one of our group got food poisoning and was bed bound for two days. Horrendous. See Facebook for pictures of the food. Other considerations… not necessarily issues, but outlining for others the think about: This hotel is ridiculously noisy day and night. Somewhat expected as a family resort, but I’d suggest a room not facing the courtyard. The snack bar food was absolutely diabolical. The burgers and sausages hadn’t seen a bit of meat. Revolting food. Maybe good for kids, but really bad quality. No where to get a nice coffee in the hotel so you have to either leave the resort or drink it out of a plastic beaker round the pool.
