IBB Playa Azul Alayor Paseo Maritimo 27 Online Booking

Start your holiday at a slow pace, enjoy buffet breakfasts, splendid facilities and take that early morning swim as you wake up to golden sunshine.

Laze around and restore your mind, body and soul as you recharge your batteries and top up your tan. Once you're feeling energetic there are some fabulous water sports to enjoy. For the keen and challenging how about some water ski-ing, para gliding or wind surfing. Fancy something a little more serene then there's sailing. Walking and hiking is wonderful here with some beautiful countryside and many photo opportunities. Horse back riding, cycling or hire a car and explore the whole island.

Menorca is famous for its gin - brought here by the British and has remained every since - you can visit the Xoriguer Distillery and see the whole process and do some sampling at the end.

There's a host of events taking place throughout the year - parades, processions, festivals and fireworks. Horse shows, dancing, music and fancy dress. Something to delight everyone and lots of food stalls with savoury tapas and sweets, cakes and drinks.

Shopping is fun here too - there are plenty of markets where you can enjoy the social scene, colours, characters and range of gifts, clothing, produce and handicrafts.

Relax, do as little or as much as you like here and enjoy the pleasant surroundings where you have the best of the countryside and beach life too.
