Arenal holidays

Holidays to Arenal contain all the classic sun-seeking ingredients – a huge swathe of sand, countless sea-facing restaurants and a generous helping of bars.

Relax, party, repeat

If lively is a must on your holiday tick list, you’ll love Arenal. By day, there’s the beach – a Blue Flag number that shelves gently into the sea – along with everything from boat trips to scuba diving. Then after dark, there’s a really good line-up of restaurants, and plenty of bars and clubs where the cocktail crowd party into the early hours.

City sights in Palma

Staying in Arenal puts you a 20-minute bus-ride away from Majorca’s bustling capital city, Palma. Head there during the day and you’ll have the iconic cathedral, boutique-lined avenues and traditional markets to explore. Go at night and you can sip Majorcan wine with a view of the city skyline from a rooftop terrace, or dance the night away Ibiza-style in the Pacha nightclub.

Sleepy south coast

Travel south and you’ll soon find yourself face-to-face with Majorca’s quieter side. Cala Blava, a five-minute car journey from Arenal, is a little-developed resort with modest beaches and coves that are perfect for low-key days spent chilling out on the sand.
