    I've done my time away 8 months pr'in in the reef a euro a head June is very late for maga.......if you went to maga took it serious worked your balls off you would come home with a few grand...my missus did a season there made a fortune she did I know girls stripping who make 30,000 grand in a season out there

    I was thinking of heading to tenerife around 28th of may. How hard is it to get a job out there? Do you need any Spanish? Playas de las americas was the place i was looking at going.

    Hey guys, just thought I would share some of my experience with you. I'm 17, turning 18 this July and I've been researching working in Magaluf this summer for several months now. I came very close several times to booking with the various companies, playaway, sunkiss, and airpro. Playaway, for example, came to a total of €658 not including flights for 4 weeks leaving on July 16th. I've come to the conclusion that this is a complete waist of my hard earned money, so I decided to do some more research myself. I messaged BCM nightclub on facebook and they provided me with email addresses so I can secure a job there. I'm only looking to be out there for about a month from mid July. I can get flights for less than €300. Is anyone interested in sharing an apartment over there or something? I'd rather not stay on my own and we could organise our own nights out and stuff to make up for not being with the companies, just a suggestion! Feedback would be greatly appreciated :)

    Thinking the same myself was gonna go tenerife but said magaluf would be better craic. Thinking of going over for that Irish takeover thing in mallorca rocks have a laugh and look for a job while doing that.

    Going with 3 other people, for 3 months, would it be better to book an apartment and flights and go scouting for jobs, or to sign up with Sunkiss or one of those companies? Are they legit?

    Book an appartment and flights from what I've heard, Sunkiss and that will charge a lot of money and do hardly anything for you

    Book a cheap holiday apartment for a week or so and go scouting for jobs, so of those companies like playaway and sunkiss are rip offs charge you a rip off registration fee. Im not sure which company it is but they take a percentage of your earnings pluuuuuuuus you're not guaranteed a job anymore than if you went around yourself looking. You'll save yourself some money and you'll have more control if you do it yourself. As far as accommodation for the 3 months there is very little you can actually do about that till you're there.

    Hey guys,!!
    Said id shed some light on my experience this last summer :D!
    Flew out the 22nd of may, went with sunkiss! Got a job pr-ing my first night ..
    Worked 8 till 2 ,€30 a night! 7 nights a week . . . They generally want you a bit tipsy to chat & such, its a given everybodys a better PR when drunk ;) .. Not too drunk mind :P ..
    Get your workers band it'l save U loads :) .. Got feck all sun coz was literally asleep all day everyday!
    In terms of sunkiss every1 gives them really bad press, but there really not as bad as they're made out to be! As it was my first summer going away I think it was a good idea , Scott & Louis were my reps! They do try and help out as much as they can .... Organised nights out most nights ,and beach days with the group :) .. Makes U loadsa friends :) so in that sense im glad I went with them!! And there esp good if ur goin alone ..
    Planning on goin again next summer (2014),but doing it myself .. Any1 interested let me know :)
    Any questions don't hesitate to ask!!
    Denise x
