TUI MAGIC LIFE Cala Pada

Having visited a sister hotel in Sharm el Sheik we knew the Hotel would be good but it surpassed our expectations.The rooms are laid out in blocks in vast immaculately maintained gardens with a large freeform leisure pool and kiddy pool with slides and, in another part of the gardens, a quieter lap pool with adjoining drinks bars. There was a wide selection of alcoholic, soft drinks and bottled water available 24hrs a day.The room was large, spotless and comfortable. Those close to the main pool area had a large curved balconies with table and four chairs. The hotel is all inclusive with an enormous variety of choices at breakfast, lunch and dinner in the main restaurant and two a la carte restaurants, one on the beach.There was a multitude of sports facilities, tennis, football, volley ball, archery. Cycling trips were on offer mainly for serious bikers. Evening entertainment was a little bit hit and miss by the resident entertainment group, strangely about 20 dancers and only 1 singer, The shows seemed a bit under rehearsed (maybe because it was early in the season) Everyone was friendly and helpful.Walk along the beach to St Eulalia(30 mins to the right ) or Es cana (20mins to the left with the Hippy Market on Wednesday).Both directions have stunning views If you do not want to walk you can get the bus outside the door to both resorts, or the ferry from the beach to Ibiza town. An ideal location-even the weather was sunny and warm.

Superb resort, immaculately clean apartment, well kept gardens, fantastic food. Every dietary need catered for from vegan to gluten free, dairy free etc, 24 hour bar , serving late night snacks . All coffee machines and soft drink machines working and plentiful so no busy queues. Plenty of sporting activities available . Short walk to the beach where another bar provided an all inclusive service. All overseen by a charming general manager Karlo who greeted the guest and ensured everyone was looked after . A happy staff reflected his friendly leadership. There is a predominantly large percentage of German guests ( probably why everything was so clean and efficient) so kids club, mini disco etc catered more for them but all the kids mixed well and joined in. We came as a party of 5 with ages ranging from 4 to 80 and everyone agreed it was the best place we had been , we will book again. There is a fridge and microwave provided in the apartment but no kettle, we had a travel one with us, only a minor point but worth mentioning .

Been going to ibiza for 40 years 4x a year stayed everywhere but this was the first time at this hotel . We picked it as we were taking our 10 year old grandson . The hotel was fab couldn’t fault it , the room was clean ( small ish ) perfect location . The food was excellent we tried both special restaurants both great fair play the Bodega is on pretty Cala Pada beach . All the staff at the hotel are fantastic ,extremely professional and friendly , they all work extremely hard . The animation team are the bomb we normally stay away from watching entertainment but both shows we saw were fab , really professional and what talent , special mention to gorgeous Emily , the lovely Greek girl ( sorry forgot name ) and the seriously awesome Oliver wow .... TUI should be proud to have you all . The hotel puts on lots of activities , the pools and grounds are beautiful, we will return . The only thing I would say in bad weather only the main restaurant is properly under cover so not sure how they would manage ?? We wouldn’t normally stay AI but it was a must with our grandson , we liked the fact there weren’t loads of British mainly German which for us was a plus as hotels with loads of British are normally grim ... sad but true . Well done to the Manager you are doing a great job x
