If you're looking for an unspoilt beach holiday on the mesmerising isle of Menorca, Cala Santandria should be top of your list.
Sitting around a pretty cove, Cala Santandria has all the ingredients for a great summer break. Centred around a beautiful sugary-sand beach that boasts a blue flag award, it's ideal for those who simply want to get away and unwind in peace and quiet. To start with, the countryside spreads out in every direction, with winding lanes bordered by flower-filled fields. A great way to explore the land is to hire a bike and take a gentle cruise. If that seems too energetic for the kind of holiday you had in mind, head for the golden sands and stretch out to the sound of lapping waves. Sun loungers and parasols provide shade here and there's plenty to entertain you in the way of watersports. You'll find pedalos, windsurfing, snorkelling and plenty more besides. And if you're feeling a bit peckish, grab a seat at one of the nearby beach bars. Heading into the town centre, you'll find a liberal sprinkling of shops where you can pick up a few necessities, as well as souvenirs. There's also a few charming and reasonably priced restaurants dotted around. Evening-wise, things are mainly hotel based, but there are a few bars offering late drinks. For something a bit livelier, head over to neighbouring Cala Blanca, or the beautiful town of Ciutadella.
Holidays in Cala Santandria are all about kicking back and chilling out. Secluded, unspoilt and oh-so pretty, this really is the perfect resort to relax in blissful peace. So grab your towel, don your shades and head for the beautiful gold-dust beach. Whether you spend your time here stretched out with the latest bestseller, cool off in the crystal-clear seas or get to grips with some watersports - you'll be de-stressed and refreshed in next to no time. And when you're not hitting the sands, you can hit the shops or spend a fun-filled day at one of the nearby waterparks.
If you really want to escape from it all, spend Cala Santandria holidays in the privacy of your own place. Imagine sun-filled days spent by your own secluded pool. Fresh seafood sizzling on the barbeque. And the fragrance of flowers drifting over from the surrounding meadows. Sound like your kind of getaway? Then check out the bright-canary-coloured Villa Amarilla with bags of charm and all the mod cons you could need.
