Almost without realising it we have come once again to that special time of year: the summer holidays. If, out of all the possible options, you’ve chosen to spend your holidays on Mallorca we can only congratulate you on your choice, which strikes us as being spot on. And if you don’t yet have anything planned, we urge you to spend your holidays with us, even if it’s only a matter of days. You’re sure not to regret it!
On Mallorca, everything’s made easy
Its excellent transport links by air and sea make reaching the island a breeze. Once you’ve arrived, you can rent a car or use public transport to tour the island.
What to see and do on the island
The variety offered by Mallorca is so spectacular that whatever your tastes, interests and holiday plans, the island won’t let you down. We assure you that your visit will always match up to your expectations.
It goes without saying that, if beaches and coves are your thing, Mallorca is the place for you. Its 42 blue-flag beaches constitute an unbeatable draw. The range of options is impressive: from very popular sandy beaches favoured by families, featuring multiple services, to hidden-away, tranquil coves. At all of them however you’ll find pristine, crystal-clear waters, a reflection of the fact that respect for the environment is one of the island’s hallmarks.
The beauty of the coast, with its idyllic beaches and coves, its traditional fishing villages and luxurious marinas, may beguile you so much that you overlook another of the island’s great charms: its mountains and natural parks. And this would be a shame. You mustn’t miss the Serra de Tramuntana, the incredible mountain chain that runs like a backbone along the northern length of the island.
What’s more, Mallorca boasts magnificent historical heritage, offering the possibility of fascinating cultural visits to monuments such as the gothic cathedral, La Lonja de los Mercaderes and the Castell de Bellver, to mention just a few.
Sports holidays on Mallorca
The sportsmen and women – both professionals and amateurs – who choose Mallorca for their sports holidays are numbered in their thousands every year. And this many people cannot all be wrong.
Its natural conditions and infrastructure ensure that Mallorca is a perfect place to engage in a whole range of sports, such as triathlon, cycling, golf and, of course, all manner of aquatic sports.
What’s more, this type of holiday can be perfectly combined with leisure, relaxation and fun with the rest of the family.
Where should I stay?
The range of hotels on the island is impressive and highly varied. Mallorca is a paradise offering both relaxation and leisure, nature, culture, gastronomy, unspoilt villages and one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world, an island with a range as varied as the types of traveller who visit it. This is why at Hotels VIVA we classify our hotels in three large groups: family hotels, for those who wish to enjoy their holidays in the company of their nearest and dearest, adults-only hotels, for those seeking an exclusive hotel just for grown-ups, and sports hotels, for those who can’t imagine holidays without staying in trim. And then of course there is the wellness hotels concept, given that our hotels boast Balneum centres to help you relax and pamper yourself.
