There is an immense satisfaction to holding your holiday tickets, and one of the most iconic images that come to mind when those tickets sit in your hand are of nature's delights: bright sun, gentle waves, and the soothing breeze wafting under a blue sky. The little sister of the Spanish island Majorca, Menorca is a haven for those seeking a resort that allows them to enjoy paradise in comfort. Once you venture outside your resort, the images that flashed to mind when you first grasped your ticket will spring to breath-taking life. Calm coves Staying in one of the luxurious Cala Galdana villas situates you in a uniquely beautiful slice of Menorca's natural wonderland. Only a few kilometres from the town of Ferreries and known as 'The Queen of the Calas', this perfect horseshoe-shaped cove will enchant you at first sight. Small and picturesque, yet placid enough for a number of water sports, simply listening to the gentle clear blue waves lap up on the soft sand will help you relax. Sandy beaches If you think of a Mediterranean escape, you no doubt picture amazing beaches. The soft sand at the doorstep of the Cala Galdana villas will not disappoint. You'll have the opportunity to wander along the shore with the white sand under your toes, while the bright sun toasts your skin and the crystal clear waters beckon. The small curved shape of this beach gives you a cosy and private feel, even thought it's not far from the resort. Serene cliffs Many of the Cala Galdana villas have stunning views, as they are perched atop the famous limestone cliffs that encircle the cove. The steep precipices provide a dual privilege for the resort dweller – you can stand on the beach and marvel at the imposing sight of the limestone cliffs reflecting the Mediterranean sun, and you can look down from the heights and enjoy a panoramic view of the cove. Warm waters At some point, a stay in Menorca will draw you into the water. One of the great benefits of a stay at any one of the Cala Galdana villas is the opportunity to dip more than a toe into the sparkling blue ocean. The feeling of relaxing amid the gentle surf, then warming yourself in the balmy sun will revive your spirit and drown your stresses. Stunning hills When you can draw yourself away from intoxicating serenity of the cove, you can enjoy the surrounding hills and gorges. The Algendar Gorge splits the limestone near the town of Ferreries and winds its way to the cove where the small Algendar River spills out into the ocean. A stroll past the river, under the shadow of the peaks and through the knots of green pines, will bring your spirits into a soothing harmony with your natural surrounds.
