Just got back from a week there with my wife, we’re both English, had a great time in and around this area and found the German people very friendly and welcoming ❤
Although this resort is primarily visited by tourists from German-speaking countries, there are also some visitors from the UK. And there is never any kind of hostile atmosphere against people from other countries.
I‘m from Germany and I am there right now. Thought it would be a little bit quieter, but it‘s still like in summer. The „Schinkenstrasse“ („Bacon Street“ because of „San Siro“) with „Bierkönig“ and „Bamboleo“ is crowded with people like in main season.
That's so sad to see....I can see why the lovely people of Majorca protest...I came back from Palma nova last week...it was so nice and nothing like this video...I suppose rough people have to go somewhere, I'll make mental notes for my next trip, stay clear lol keep making the videos xx keep safe
Very interesting video Alex. I'm glad it's not smell o vision. At least there is no one throwing up this time. I think I'll stick to Puerto Pollensa. Best wishes, John
I am so glad Magaluf is going the Family holiday way. We were on the Bali beds on Son matias beach last week with my 4 year old, and our other family with their young kids, a bunch of lads(unfortunaly british) walking along, clearly a stag or lads holiday, drinking, carrying a very loud music box, shouting and swearing A LOT, thinking they are cool. Was just unacceptable, this was 10 in the morning. I felt so ashamed to be british.
What a dump. I found Palma swarming with the street sellers around the cathedral too. I'll stick with Cala D'or I think. Much better and laid back atmosphere
Just got back from a lads (all over 40!) holiday to Cala D'Or...had a brilliant time ...zero hassle or stress in Cala D'Or....Lola's and Sparkles have good DJ's and great atmospheres for a slightly more mature group.
Hi Alex, horrendous place, I'll take cala millor every time but thankyou so much for your brave content, much appreciated. Looking forward to visiting next week. Fingers crossed for the weather!
I felt intimidated by just watching this video Alex. Definitely a police no go zone as many places are these days unfortunately. I stayed at el arenal for a week in the 90s. Wasn't as bad as it is now but still a week too long. At least I know where to find you on the last weekend of the season. Lol. 💃💃🌭🍔🍺
Presumably the season end also coincides with the end of Oktoberfest? El Arenal is pretty grim - it's much better at the other end of the Playa in Can Pastilla in my experience.
It's just a place that would never appeal to us, we are all different, thank goodness. I can't see how they allow all those hundreds of street sellers.
12:10 my grandparents were on Mallorca last week and they said that it was full and they didn't expect that in september. As a result, they couldn't even rent a car. I don't drink beer by the way because of my gluten sensitivity...
I’m presently in Porto Colom and went into Palma today.. Palma busy as it was when I was there earlier in the year.. no negatives.. weather still nicer than back in the UK with plenty of bargains to be picked up from travel agent..
We stayed in Playa de Palma maybe three or four years ago in April. A few weeks before the madness starts but we were not aware the resort was like this. Hotel was amazing but way to many looky looky men. Put your head away. Overall didn't enjoy the holiday though it was not great weather either so a lot of little things all came together to ruin the week. Would never go back anyhow.
I was young once Alex. I can see why locals can't stand this. My sister worked and lived in Mallorca in the 80s. You could still find rabbit and pigs trotters on the menu. Shame it has changed. But I understand the tourist needs.
I am going to Mallorca on Monday. I think to book my hotel in Magaluf. Do you recommend Magaluf in October? Or if you can recommend another place to stay? I will be there just for chilling and enjoy the weather. It would be nice to have parties close to me.
Hi Alex, I spent a month here in Feb and it was very quiet and the local Spanish bars were wonderful. I wouldn't dream of going back in the summer, the whole place is owned by Germans and extremely run down. The immigrants are a nuisance and prostitution is rife.
Hello, From the production department of the Código10 program on Cuatro, are contacting you because we would like to use some of your images in one of our reports. Could we use them mentioning you as the source? Thank you very much and best regards,
Hola Alex arenal not the resort I'd want to visit too many street sellers I just don't like the look of the place I took a day trip here from palma and only stayed for an hour I quickly returned to palma a more classy place I'm in alcudia soon😂
This place honestly looks a disaster, no wonder the locals protest about holiday makers. Maybe I’m just getting old, but I’d hate the thought of being stuck in this resort.
Arenal/Playa de Palma is amazing in June. Bars are rammed from mid morning with young Germans on the lash. Magaluf is a Sunday School picnic in comparison.
Interestingly, the Germans are known to be very tidy at home there’s a public bin attached to most lamp posts even, all appears to fall down when on a ballermann booze up. Sad really, but the Brits are no better ( though not tidy at home at all )
What can I say. Arenal really lets Mallorca down. Why aren’t the police moving on the street sellers, and the esplanade is a disgrace, lazy people, what’s their home town like! I certainly won’t be visiting Arenal, I want to visit Mallorca not Germany. Thanks Alex.

Haha! Palmanova is (thankfully) nothing like this!

Haha, always a bonus!
Thank you so much, Alex! As always…great video with awesome content. Keep shining ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🙏🏻😘
Aww, thank you!
My goodness me, another great video !
Thank you!
I can’t believe how busy it is in this area.
We were in playa de Palma in August and no where near as many people in this area
The island is very busy at the moment!

You gotta have some dance moves!! LOL🏖️👍😎🆒

It's definitely not a police no go area, did you hear that from someone or just make it up?
Fantastic video Alex. But omg for the area
OMG yes ! lol! thanks Tommy!

Ah yes, good point, but then everyday is like Oktoberfest! And Can Pastilla is just so different (thank goodness)
Oktoberfest ends next Sunday, season at the Ballermann ends at the end of Oktober. But the Bierkönig remains open all year long.
Why can't they be respectful for the locals and bin their rubbish. Disgrace.
It's just a place that would never appeal to us, we are all different, thank goodness. I can't see how they allow all those hundreds of street sellers.
Heading there on Tuesday with my wife for a quiet break, didn’t research enough, got the fear now 😢
It‘s not that bad. Depending on the location of your hotel, it may be relatively quiet.
12:10 my grandparents were on Mallorca last week and they said that it was full and they didn't expect that in september. As a result, they couldn't even rent a car. I don't drink beer by the way because of my gluten sensitivity...
Genia Alex 👏👏👏👏

Definitely warmer than the UK!

I thought it was nice to see people dancing in the street (just not the rubbish though)
I'll be there on the 9th next week😅
I'll probably not visit that area!
Same🎉

Look we have all done a bit of this let the kids alone your only young once ❤😊
Makes Magaluf look very tame
It does!

The German Magaluf

Ballermann is nice 🎉 yeaah

Is it true the Germans don’t spend much in the local economy? They like a cheap holiday?
I think they spend a tonne of money on 🍻
@@MallorcaUnderTheSun No doubt :-)
@@carl90210 dicen que gastan muy bien ! Saludos 🤙
It‘s not cheap at all there.

What a dump
It looks awful 😖
That looks worse than Brighton, so different from the rest of majorca really not like the majorca i know, stay safe, 🤡☘☘☘
It is unique!

Very true Diane! I think the police are all in Palmanova and Magaluf driving along the backs of the empty beaches!
It looks awful
Is there a migrant problem in Mallorca . 🙄 .
Let’s talk about your Ex
NO! lol! Ex for a reason
@@MallorcaUnderTheSun Ha ! No, it’s the title of the tune ! 😄

The problem is El Arenal caters for these people 🇪🇸🇩🇪
