The Best Resorts to Book on Menorca, Spain

White Sands Beach Club lives up to the name, set on the shores of a secluded crescent cove: Arenal d’en Castell. Gaze at the glittering Mediterranean Sea from the infinity pool or the flower-draped terrace of your self-catering apartment. Each has a kitchen (there’s a supermarket a short walk away for groceries) and up to three bedrooms. When you’re not on the beach, enjoy table tennis or mini-golf at the resort, and let kids loose in the playground and separate shallow pool.

With marina views and a five-star spa, this adults-only resort in Menorca is ideal for a splurge. A contemporary nautical theme runs throughout, with teal soft furnishings, beach prints, blue up-lighting and seafaring paraphernalia on the walls. In the Aquarium seafood restaurant, you’re surrounded by fish tanks and views of the glitzy marina, while the pool area offers dazzling-white cabanas for relaxing. Suites have large terraces and the most fancy has a Jacuzzi.

All-inclusive family fun is the order of the day at Insotel Punta Prima, which has family suites, some with swim-up pool access. This five-star resort in Menorca provides a stellar package that includes all food and drinks, a host of sports and an entertainment programme that’ll please everyone. Think tennis, aqua gym and a spa for adults, while little ones get to have fun at the kids’ club. Head to nearby Punta Prima Beach for calm, clear waters, or splash around in the three outdoor pools at the resort.

Planning a romantic Menorca getaway? Then, stay at this five-star boutique hotel, rated one of the most luxurious adults-only properties in Spain. Book the junior suite for a hammocked terrace and your own whirlpool tub. The decor features colonial flair with ornate bed heads, high ceilings and local artwork – there’s even a pillow menu. Spend sun-soaked days lounging by the pool, have a candlelit Mediterranean feast or book a pamper session for two in the spa.

Come to Carema Club Resort for a traditional family holiday complete with high-energy kids’ clubs, buffet restaurants and a prime location near Cala Tirant Beach.
