    It's a nice project, nothing special though. Coming from a Plastic Hearts, I expected her to go above and beyond, but it was a downgrade.

    Handstand, Jaded and Violet Chemistry are my favourites.

    The cohesive album I’ve heard in a few years. It’s not trying to be anything, it is Miley in her final form: fiercely unapologetic. You’ll get whatever she wants you to get. She’s not trying to shed an image, prove her adulthood or appeal to her critics. And now more than ever, you hear the sincerity and authenticity that attracts you to Miley’s shine.

    You get transported to an endless summer! She killed it with the intros. She gave us killer bridges. She devoured with the outros. Amazing!

    The most mature of Miley we’ve seen so far. She keeps surprising and rewarding her fans. ESV in an absolute wonder!

    Miley nunca decepciona con su música, este nuevo estilo de verdad que merece la pena que todos lo escuchen, hay mucha personalidad y honestidad en lo que canta, y sin contar que la producción es fenomenal.

    A cohesive and well-designed album which sees Miley with a combination of some of her previously explored sounds including pop (synth pop), rock, psychedelia and country.

    Igual de nefasto que el de Sam Smith, un primer sencillo que es quemado hasta el extremo y el resto pasa sin pena ni gloria, mucho ruido y nada de nueces, sacrificar calidad por cantidad ya les esta pasando factura.

    The lyrics are not that ambitious, I appreciate the effort of bringing some lost beats from the 2000, but they were also not used as good

    This is the new shape of Miley Cyrus. She is always bring something else in the game. And this album has zero skip. Muddy Feet and River has stronf pieces. Violet Chemistry is the POP song you want to listen for long time. Jaded, Island and Wildcard growing super fast everytime you listening. But Handstand is another level of pop perfection.

It's not something we see in Miley's discography. You, Wonder Woman, Thousand Miles has some pipes. They are slow but you can't skip them. Miley's mega hit Flowers is matching the album perfectly. Rose Colored Lenses is a definitely vacation song. You will enjoy while listening this at holiday! This summer will be better with Miley.… Expand

    Cyrus has matured her sound more and more, and now she shows her full potential in endless summer vacation. He manages to transmit his soul into the project, managing to rescue his past in a sweet way, but also his vigor as an artist. The tracks show how his maturation brought even more talent and insight. This is definitely your best work.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Her most cohesive and well-constructed body of work. Finally, Miley decided to express the all artistry she has. Just like BBC said, she is the "ultimate pop star of the 21st Century", and 'Endless Summer Vacation' can prove you that. Definitely, a 10/10. An album for all tastes. One of the most intelligents and creative records from this decade, standing with 'Future Nostalgia' and 'SAWAYAMA'.… Expand

    This album belongs to the type of music that leaves a bold mark on the stage of emotional being and shapes a persons mood for the next couple of weeks from the first full listen. Highly recommend ESV to people who are struggling with letting the worries go for even a moment to just have an ounce of pure fun.

    Endless Summer Vacation is the cumulation of all of Miley Cyrus' past work, all her genres into one skip-less pop album!

The idea of teaming up with the same producers as Harry’s House was just outstanding!

The idea of teaming up with the same producers as Harry’s House was just outstanding! Miley’s voice can hang with and easily carry these minimalistic beats. Jaded is the song that perfectly pop-ifies her girthy rock vocals! Like i couldn’t have wanted it any other way.
    Harry Styles in the house again in Rose Colored Lenses as in most of the AM part of this album and you can feel it. You can imagine Harry sing ANY of these songs but Miley? She just knocks it out of the park. She gives you the missing piece. Rose Colored is soo simple yet effective. Miley’s previous albums all lacked a blender like Handstand! It perfect introduces us to the PM side of the album.    … Expand

    A master of all genres - that's what Miley has become. The greatest act of the younger generation. The album is pure perfection. It takes you through all her past experiences and all the emotions and it does so flawlessly.

    Very uninspiring. Not what you would expect after "Flowers", which would have been an unapologetic and empowering project. The narrative here is "i don't need men because I can buy my self flowers" on the first song and "I realy miss and need my man" for pretty much the rest of the album.

    Cyrus gives us an authentic and unapologetic album with "Endless Summer Vacation" The lead single is fantastic, and has an immediately iconic bass line. The theme of the lead single is seen throughout the rest of the album. However, some of the tracks are good for first listens but don't necessarily leave me longing for more. Muddy Feet for example, while it isn't necessarily a bad track,Cyrus gives us an authentic and unapologetic album with "Endless Summer Vacation" The lead single is fantastic, and has an immediately iconic bass line.

    Her singing is vivid enough on “Endless Summer Vacation” to make up for some mushy songwriting here and there.

    Cyrus will probably never settle on just one or two sounds to express herself, but her voice and vision are strong enough on Endless Summer Vacation to suggest she'll never need to.

    Not the sundazed party record that was promised but an exploration of how it feels when the party’s over.
