Menorca – a peaceful alternative to the usual Balearic Islands

When holiday companies, travel writers and ‘normal’ people alike talk about sun-drenched Mediterranean destinations, they so often focus on the higher profile Balearic Islands of Mallorca and Ibiza.

Exciting summer deals to make luxury Mallorca stays even better value

The largest of the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean, Mallorca remains popular with millions of holidaymakers seeking sunny beaches, awe-inspiring landscapes and delicious food. Villa Retreats maintain many villas from which these attractions can be enjoyed, and these villas can provide even greater value than usual this summer, thanks to a range of exciting – but, we stress, limited – offers.

 

If this news has piqued your interest, then consider the huge discounts that we are offering for one of our luxury villas in Mallorca that overlooks the Cala in Deia. From this stone house of modern build, you are merely a short walk away from a beach cove and fish restaurants. Book any July or August stay in this villa, and you will weekly pay £1,250 less than the usual online price.

 

There’s an even larger discount for rental of a week-long stay in this rural retreat near Campanet in the north of the island. You can look forward to high quality furnishing and fitting here, and also a 25% discount provided that your booked arrival at the villa will be on 22 August.

 

Large group? We have the perfect deal for you…

We are also offering a 25% discount for this villa at Andratx Portals. The offer is certainly worth considering if you want to take a large group with you to Mallorca’s south-western coast for a stay lasting from 22 August until 5 September, as the retreat has seven bedrooms and affords sumptuous views of the sea and mountains from its hill location.

Our latest deals make Algarve luxury that bit more affordable

The Algarve unquestionably means many things to many people – and by ‘many’, we mean some 10 million – who pay this southernmost region of mainland Portugal a visit every year. A part of the world known for its endlessly compelling beaches and natural beauty, top golf courses and fine Mediterranean-style cuisine, it also offers no shortage of opulent villas from which to enjoy it all.

5 great reasons to head to the Costa del Sol

The Costa del Sol seems to be the archetypal tourist destination, and indeed, if there’s anything that has deterred people from soaking up its charms, it may simply be fears of it being too obvious a choice.

In truth, though, even if you visit the Sunshine Coast every year, there’s always something new to savour – not least the choice of luxury villas in the Costa del Sol that we can unlock the doors to here at Villa Retreats.
