Advantages: Dirty, old, only cleaned once a week Disadvantages: The pool
...The Voranova hotel was about half an hour from the airport and cost about 25euros, split between two, so wasn't too bad as the hotel transfer coach you could also book cost as much together and took about 2 hours stopping at every hotel that existed!
The hotel was in a good location, a few minutes walking distance from Palma Nova town centre and the beach. It was also about 10-15minutes walk to the centre of Magaluf. We got a bus to Palma City one day and this took about 45 minutes and was very crowded.
Just across the road from the hotel was a large supermarket and several shops including a pharmacy, there was also a taxi rank and bus stop.
The hotel being in Palma Nova rather than Magaluf was good as it wasn't too noisy and busy at night. There were plenty of small bars and resturants in Palma Nova. The hotel also had...
Advantages: short flight from uk, fabulous island, heaps to do,gorgeous scenery, spotlessly clean Disadvantages: can't think of any!
...We went to Palma Nova in September/October 2005 for 15 days and had the most fabulous holiday. This was the first time we'd been to Palma Nova so didn't know what to expect but we were more than happy with our choice of resorts.
Our trip started at Glasgow Airport and we arrived in Palma 2 hours and 20 minutes later. We arrived at 7-30pm and after the long walk through the airport to collect our luggage, we got a taxi to our accommodation. This took around 40 minutes and cost us 34 euros (we later, on our return taxi to airport realised that we'd been taken the long route as the return journey took around 30 mins and cost us 22 euros!). Our accommodation was rented privately through a friend who owns an appartment so we were able to save on accommodation costs.
We used the bus service a lot. Regular buses go all over the island...

Review of PalmaNova, Majorca
Advantages: Lovely beach and prom and ideal for children Disadvantages: Not many shops
...I have recently come back from a week in the resort of Palma Nova on the south of the island.
Palma Nova has recently had a fantastic new promenade built, it's really attractive and in local stone. They have been careful to keep the existing palm trees in place and there are plenty of cafes and seats along the way. It runs from one end of Palma Nova to the beginning of Magaluf right along the bay.
The resort is a good place for anyone elderly or if you have young children as it's quite flat and easy to walk round. There are plenty of hotels and restaurants and the whole place is clean and fairly fresh.
I was disappointed that there weren't more shops as most of them sold the same sort of goods and were full of slightly downmarket souvenirs, but there was an excellent shop which sold lace in all forms (tablecloths etc...
