Villa Holidays In Spain

Best Spanish Villa Locations

Majorca

Finding a holiday villa in Majorca to suit your needs is pretty easy. In fact, all of the Balearic Islands have great options. The range is vast - but what you're searching for really depends on what you are looking for on this stunning Spanish island. A trip here should not be limited to a passing weekend in a hotel resort. Instead, settle into a spacious, homely holiday villa and uncover the incredible culture and vibrancy of Mallorca. In addition to soft, sandy beaches and busy nightlife, there's a world of culture, history, cuisine and diverse landscape waiting to be explored.

Fuerteventura

Located in the Canary Islands, Fuerteventura enjoys warm weather throughout the year, making it the ideal place for enjoying some winter sun. There are some great places to stay here too, with sea views, heated pools and being close to the beach. Check out areas like Corralejo and Caleta de Fuste as some of the most popular areas. Cheaper villa rentals will be more inland, but if you get car hire with your booking, spending a few hours down at the beach is easy.

Costa Brava

Dotted around this part of north eastern Spain, you'll find some excellent apartments and villas for rent (and sale), allowing you to choose the best area for you depending on how close or far away from the busier parts of Catalunya. Places like Lloret de Mar and Blanes are much busier, where holiday apartments might be a better option, otherwise you'll find a range of different options from budget friendly to luxury villas dotted throughout the area.

Costa Blanca

Famous for sun loving Brits, the Costa Blanca offers a little bit for everyone and while first thoughts may be of towering hotels in Benidorm or Torrevieja, you'll find some beautiful modern and Spanish style villas in and around the area including Calpe and Denia. Both Murcia and Alicante airports serve this part of Spain, but choose wisely or you might end up with a long airport transfer or drive to your accommodation depending on where you are staying.

Costa Del Sol

The Costa del Sol is another very popular destination for a sunny holiday, so it's only right there's a great range of self catering accommodation to suit. Villa holidays in the Costa Del Sol can be both affordable and often a better way to holiday, escaping the busy hotel breakfasts and sunbed rush.

Spain Villa Offers

There are plenty of cheap deals and offers available in Spain, especially when you package up your flights and car hire with your accommodation. If you don't mind where you go in Spain, last minute deals can be a great option for keeping the cost down too. Plus things like shared pools (and no pool), terraced homes and being further away from the main resorts can often help reduce the cost too.

Booking your accommodation separately like via friends and family or with Airbnb can also mean you find some incredible prices, but be aware of challenges around flexibility and cancellations should you not be able to travel, or providing financial protection on your booking. This can be overcome by booking through an ATOL and ABTA protected provider.

Free child places aren't usually available with villas in Spain as it's more of a package price, but you may be able to find discount codes to help bring down the cost.

Near The Beach

Whether you've chosen a villa without a private pool, or you just like to have the option of enjoying time on the sand, booking a holiday villa in Spain near the beach can be a great idea, especially if you're wanting to be within walking distance of the Spanish shores. Hiring a car can make this even easier giving you the freedom to expand your choice of local beaches to explore.

Throughout the islands and mainland coastline, you'll find a wealth of self catering accommodation close to beaches, from Estepona in the south all the way up to Barcelona in the north. In the Canary Islands and the Balearic Islands, accommodation is often cheaper the more inland you go, but that can also be great for having access to outdoor activities like hiking trails around a local national park, or enjoying stunning scenery. When looking at holiday homes, take a look at the map too so you can see just how far it is from the nearest beach, as well as what the road and path conditions are like. Certain routes to the soft, golden sand beaches might be less accessible than others.

Spanish Villa Holidays With No Car Required

Many of the cheapest villas in Spain are located a bit further away from shops, bars and restaurants, however you can still find some fantastic deals, even if you don't want to hire a car. Provided you don't mind a little bit of walking, areas like Golf del Sur in Tenerife, Nerja in the Costa del Sol and Cala'n Forcat in Menorca are ideal for those who like to be closer to resorts with no car required. Always take a look at the map to see the property's location in relation to nearby resorts and amenities.
