When we are in Magaluf, we often stop in to see our friends Jackie and Mal (Captain Cook) at the very popular Fountain Bar across the road from the Sol Magaluf Hotel. It’s a great place to enjoy live entertainment. The shows start at 10:00 until 12ish and the bar stays open until quite late. The nightly shows include Shirley Bassey, Tina Turner, Leapy Lee, Neil Diamond, Lionel Ritchie, Elvis and Drag Nite. It’s always a really fun atmosphere. I’m sure you’ll enjoy a night out at the Fountain Bar.
If you are looking for a great place to eat or relax then you should check out our friend Manilo's new restaurant. It is located opposite the Fiesta Jungle Hotel on C/Galeo, across the road from the BCM Planet Dance facility. The restaurant is called Meson el Chovaleno. You will have a choice of a traditional Spanish menu or an English menu. If you have not tried the Spanish Tapas then I strongly suggest that you sample some of these typical Spanish snacks.
