Menorca holidays are very popular with those seeking some quiet charm and a relaxing culture. This island has always worked hard to try and attract slightly more discerning holidaymakers, and to avoid becoming a concrete jungle.
Choosing Menorca
Since the 1960s, Menorca has had a relatively high proportion of apartment and villa holidays (as a percentage of holiday accommodation) aimed at those that enjoy self-catering and experiencing the local life. In the major resorts such as Calan Forcat, there are larger hotels and a more vibrant nightlife, but many of the resorts on the island specialise in family and discreet relaxation rather than a "dance your feet off" type of holiday.
Menorca holidays are often based around small resorts nestling in the shadow of hills overlooking beautiful bays or beaches. Son Bou is a good example of one of the unspoiled resorts, some of which may have only one or two significant hotels plus a number of excellent villas for rental.
A Villa for Everyone
If you are new to villa-based holidays, you may have concerns that this is something only for the very affluent. Well, you can relax! Although on Menorca there is a wide selection of truly luxury villas with stunning facilities if, however, your tastes (or budget) run to something a little humbler, you may still find it is possible to rent a villa with its own pool and with great views, for prices that you may find to be surprisingly modest.
Depending on your budget you will be able to choose from a range of villas suitable for families, couples, friends or even a business trip. Renting a villa for your Menorca holidays can often work out surprisingly affordable when you take into account the savings you can make on eating out. The villas will be equipped with fully functioning kitchens and, in fact, with the abundant seafood available on the island, it is often even more enjoyable to create your own Spanish feast at home with all the wonderful fresh ingredients.
In order to make sure your villa rental runs smoothly, it is important to book with a reputable operator. Some of the best villas can be found simply by word of mouth, but it is always wise to check the fine print and ensure you are getting exactly what you want, and what you pay for. Another very important factor to check on is the location of your prospective villa for your Menorca holidays. If you are on a family holiday with the kids, there is no point staying in a villa nearby to a nightclub or noisy town area, and if you are on a get-together with old school friends you won't want to be stuck in a resort with a plethora of families!
In short, if you do your homework and plan in advance exactly what you want from your Menorca villa, you could well be in for the most relaxing holiday of your life!
