Park Guell was commissioned by Eusebi Güell who wanted to create a stylish park for the aristocracy of Barcelona.The park contains amazing stone structures, stunning tiling and fascinating buildings. The Gaudi dragon fountain  at the entrance to Guell park is adorned with beautiful coloured tiling and there is something rather mesmerizing and magical about it. At the top of the park is a terraced area where you get an amazing view of the park and of Barcelona city. Due to the location of the park and the size you will need at least half a day for a visit to the park, but if you have booked holiday apartments in Spain or villas for rent in Barcelona Spain it is well worth a visit.

There are various ways of exploring the city if you book holiday apartments in Spain or villa holiday lettings in Barcelona.  One which is highly recommended is the ‘Hop on Hop off’ Bus Tour. This is ideal if you don’t want to be too organized and want to see the sights in your own time. The Bus Tour has a commentary and covers all the main attractions in Barcelona including: Gaudi's Sagrada Familia, the Gothic Quarter (Barri Gotic), the Olympic Village and  Poble Espanyol (a model Spanish village built in 1929 for the Barcelona International Exhibition).

Another very pleasant way to take in the sights if you have booked centrally located apartment holiday lettings in Barcelona or villas for rent in Barcelona Spain is a walking tour. The centre of Barcelona is a very agreeable location to walk around and it is a great way to see the sights close up. Much of the area has been pedestrianised with wide streets that make walking tours a very enjoyable way to explore the city. Many sights can be seen simply by buying a map to check locations as the city centre is much smaller than you may imagine. There are many organized walking tours including the Modernist walking tour, Picasso walking tour and even the Tapas evening walking tour!

If you are a football fan and have booked apartment holiday lettings in Barcelona then Barcelona FC Stadium is the tour for you. You can visit the Barcelona FC museum which is packed with trophies and cups and photos of players from Barcelona FC's history. You will also get the chance to see what it is like behind the scenes at the club with a visit to the players’ changing rooms as well a chance to sit in the VIP box in the Football stadium itself. This is a fascinating tour for all football fans that choose to stay in villas for rent in Barcelona Spain. If you intend going to the Barcelona FC stadium tour we recommend that you book in advance as it is very popular.

Obviously the weather is an important factor to consider when you are booking your holiday apartments in Spain or villa holiday lettings in Barcelona. The weather in Barcelona is pleasant for most of the year but the best weather is usually from May to the end of July, with September also a good month weatherwise. August is generally hot, sometimes as high as 34°C, and humid so if you decide to visit the city in August then make sure to choose accommodation with air conditioning. From October to February the weather is cooler averaging about 12°C with a mixture of overcast, rainy and sunny days.

If you are looking for apartment or villa holiday lettings, Barcelona is full of properties which you can rent from the owners direct.  These are ideal if you want the freedom to come and go as you please and to stay for a weekend or possibly longer!

If you decide to travel to your holiday villa rentals or holiday apartments to rent Spain in Valencia by train, you will find the trains modern, clean and fast. It's not as fast as flying but it is one of the best ways to combine a trip to Valencia with a journey through France. Over the past ten years millions of Euros have been spent on up-grading Spain's railway system and they have succeeded in providing one of the most economical and enjoyable ways of traveling in Spain.

When you arrive at your holiday apartments to rent Spain or holiday villa rentals in Valencia you will be glad that you chose this vibrant city with so much going on. You must visit the Old Quarter of Valencia where you can explore the tiny, winding streets which are a reminder of the city's Moorish past. If you stop off in one of the cafes, restaurants or bars, you will not be able to resist sampling the delicious tapas, paella or freshly caught fish. If you are feeling tired or you just want to relax and be taken round the Old Quarter, go to the Plaza de la Reina where you can book a ride in a horse-drawn carriage and really travel in style before returning to your holiday villa rentals.

For those visitors who have booked holiday villa rentals and are interested in the nightlife of the city a great place to visit is Barrio del Carmen. Barrio del Carmen, or el Carme as it's known locally, is peaceful during the day and buzzing at night! If you walk down Calle de Caballeros from Plaza de la Virgin to Torres de Cuart, you can enjoy a drink or meal at one of the many popular restaurants, bars or clubs. There are lively and trendy bars and clubs in the area with live music ranging from jazz to hip-hop. This is one of the best areas to book your holiday apartments to rent Spain in Valencia if you want lovely restaurants, bars and clubs on your doorstep.

If you book your self-catering holiday in Spain villa or apartment in June this year you may be able to see the European Grand Prix which is held on a brand new street circuit around the port, similar to the one in Monaco. This great event can be enjoyed over three days and will culminate with the Grand Prix of Europe. The circuit was designed by Hermann Tilke who is known for designing some of the most modern tracks in the world.

Another event you can witness if you book your holiday villa rentals in Valencia is the La Tomatina Festival. This amazing festival is held every year in the town of Buñol which is just a short journey away from Valencia City. The event is free and starts at 11 o’clock but it is not for the faint-hearted as it is very messy! The day’s events begin with a ham being tied to a greased pole and before the event begins, someone must climb up the pole and get the ham. This is followed by absolute pandemonium as millions of tons of tomatoes are dumped from the backs of trucks. What follows is a tomato and water fight - great fun if you like that sort of thing! It's a good idea to travel there from your holiday in Spain villa as early as possible so as not to miss the fun and to bring a change of clothing. Trains run approximately every hour to Buñol but they can get very crowded on festival day.

All the islands carry not only their own history but a wealth of architecture and traditions. However the islands, in modern times, have picked up modern media labels. “Mallorca - where the rich and famous live” may be the attraction for some people who book Majorca beach apartments for rental. Also “Ibiza, where revelers go” may encourage people who like to party to book holiday villas to rent in Ibiza. Families often look for a holiday rental Menorca as it is known as “the quiet island” and while some of these labels hold some truth, all the Balearic Islands have hidden secrets and are in fact some of the most popular destinations in the whole of Europe.
 
The Balearic Islands are an autonomous region of Spain and are located between Spain and the North African coast and firmly planted in the beautiful Mediterranean. The archipelago is an autonomous area of which Palma is the capital city. Palma is the major city and port on the island of Majorca and very popular for Majorca beach apartments for rental.

The Balearic Islands are made up of Majorca, Minorca, Ibiza and Formentera.

All of these Islands have outstanding temperatures with around 300 days of sun per year and magnificent golden beaches. The Son Sant Joan International airport is one of the busiest airports in Spain at peak holiday times but this should not put you off as it is also one of the best run airports in Spain.

Majorca (or Mallorca, the history of these two names both being legitimate is a history lesson in itself!) is the largest of the Balearic Islands and flying time from most UK airports is around 2 - 3 hours. This island can genuinely boast to having everything for everyone, with Majorca beach apartments for rental proving to be one of the most popular holiday bookings made in the Balearic Islands.

Minorca (Menorca) - is the second largest of the Balearic Islands. Although the second largest Menorca has been able to keep a lot of its traditional settings and managed to avoid over-development which in itself attract holidaymakers seeking that type of holiday rental in Menorca.

Ibiza is best known as the "Party Island", unjustly some would say.  Holiday villas to rent in Ibiza, which is the third largest Balearic Island, are popular with visitors from all over the world.  Although Ibiza lives up to the reputation of all-night parties there is also a lot more to this island. Ibiza offers a lot of tourist attractions and many golden beaches so you can escape and just relax if you wanted to. Book holiday villas to rent in Ibiza and you will not be disappointed.

Formentera – Often referred to as the quiet island is the fourth largest Balearic Island, this smaller island offers some of the best and unspoilt beaches the Balearic Islands has to offer and is definitely a get-away-from-it-all island.

As a website that offers to put holiday makers in direct touch with the owners of Majorca beach apartments for rental we know how popular this and the other Balearic islands are.

Like many holidaymakers we know we can book a holiday in many countries around the world, yet Spain is still the number one choice for apartment and villa holidays and the reasons are still the same. Booking seaside Spain villa rentals tourists are looking for sun, history, beaches, architecture, cuisine, festivals, horse riding, golfing (with golf accommodation in Begur readily available), the list is endless. We have not even mentioned that both snow and water skiing are on offer as well as sailing, mountaineering, hiking and so it goes on.

While these are reasons that make Spain such a special place, there are also other very practical reasons that make it still the number one choice. Travel time and the Spanish infrastructure are important if you are travelling and holidaying with small children and a big factor when booking seaside Spain villa rentals. There is probably no other country that can compete with the choice of gay villa Spain rentals available to rent direct.

So why choose seaside Spain villa rentals in Begur? The answer is quite simply that it has so much to offer over the usual northern locations. Because of its locality you have a choice of three nearby airports, all served by low cost airlines, Girona (Gerona), Barcelona and Perpignan. If you fly to Barcelona it takes about two hours to get to Begur whereas it only takes 30 to 40 minutes from Girona and 90 minutes from Perpignan. Taxies are readily available but will be very costly going both ways. The easiest way to get to Begur from these airports is by hire car. All the low cost airlines offer cheap car hire from their respective airports or book direct like you do for your gay villa Spain rental and you will probably get a better deal.

Once arriving in your seaside Spain villa rentals or golf accommodation in Begur, if that’s your holiday choice, you will be delighted with the town of Begur. The children will want to get off to the beaches and Sa Riera is Begur’s largest beach and the one closest to the town. It is very easy to get to from the town, simply by taking the ring road and going down to the bay. It can also be reached from Sa Tuna or Aiguafreda along the road that connects the various towns. Sa Riera, whose name comes from the stream that divides the beach into two halves, retains the former fishermen’s houses and has a boat club offering various leisure activities. Its geographical location is excellent: to the right is the sheltered bay of Port d’Es Pi, while to the left lies Rei bay, from which one can take the coastal path to stroll to Illa Roja and Pals beaches.

And while the kids are at the beach dad can check out the evening dining agenda!  The choices are many and there are some good quality restaurants which range from the family top-end Tapas to the top-end fish restaurants. There are also Italian restaurants, even a Chinese restaurant, the choice is endless.

Finally, while there are many sporting activities available for those who book seaside Spain villa rentals, golf now dominates this region. There are two courses close by: - Golf Serres de Pais, a 18 hole and a Golf Playa de Pais, close by along with Emporda Golf which is north of the city but still where golf accommodation in Begur can be booked.

Getting there

Denia is located between the two major airports of Valencia and Alicante. If you book your apartment holiday rental Spain or holiday in Spain villa in Denia you can use either airport as they are both about an hour and a quarter from the town.

About the town

Staying in a holiday rental Spain in the centre of Denia you will find a busy commercial centre, port and shopping area. Next to the port is the Yacht Club and Marina - Denia has an excellent reputation as one of the Mediterranean’s yachting capitals.

Beaches

The beaches to the north of Denia are in total contrast to the beaches in the south.  Las Marinas in the north is a long area of sandy beaches which offer all the amenities you need for a relaxing holiday soaking up the sun.

Although most holidaymakers book holiday villas or apartments in Spain to hire on the Costa Brava for a relaxing holiday of sun and sea there are however many points of cultural interest on this coast. These include, Cadaques, a little fishing village on the coast where Salvador Dali lived for many years. The Dali Theatre-Museum in Figueres is worth a visit for those who love the surrealist artists and while you are there why not try some tapas in a local restaurant. Girona, one of Catalonia's oldest cities, is also worth a visit. It is a walled city of Roman origin and located at a strategic point between the Pyrenees and Barcelona. The city has a Cathedral and an ancient Jewish quarter and most visitors gravitate to the east side in the old medieval part of the city. After a busy day sight-seeing you will be glad to return to your holiday rental apartment for a siesta!

Another one of the must-see places for visitors who book a self-catering holiday rental apartment on the Costa Brava is the Cap de Creus Natural Park which was designated as a nature reserve in 1998.  The reserve extends from Port de la Selva to Roses, and most of the land surrounding Canyelles Petites. Much of the fauna and flora are uncommon or unique, and the area is a haven for walkers and bird-watchers.  A lot of visitors who book a holiday letting in Spain try the Roses Expres which is a ‘dotto’ type road-train with two carriages which is pulled by a tractor- style engine.  There are various excursions but the longest trip takes you past the hillside of Puig Rom (good views of Canyelles Petites), L'Almadraba, Cala Montjoi and onwards into the Cap de Creus Natural Park.

If you have booked your own self-catering holiday rental apartment, you may well have also booked a hire-car. Visitors who are looking for a great place to drive should explore the coastal road heading north from Lloret de Mar to Sant Feliu and Platja d'Aro (famous for its designer shops). The winding stretch between Tossa de Mar and Sant Feliu is considered to be one of the most beautiful coastal routes in Spain. The road (GI-682) has plenty of parking and picnic areas if you want to take a break and enjoy the view.

Families who book holiday villas or apartments in Spain to hire in this area often visit Europe's biggest water park which is located just outside Lloret de Mar and the Marine land complex near Blanes.  It is a wonderful day out and is popular with holidaymakers who have booked a holiday rental apartment and local people alike.

If you are tempted by the Costa Brava why not try booking a holiday rental apartment or a villa holiday letting in Spain direct with the private owners. Many holidaymakers find that a self-catering holiday letting in Spain suits them better than a cramped hotel room they could get for the same price. All you need to do is search on-line for a website which lists holiday properties for rent. Try it - it could be the holiday you have always dreamed about!

IBIZA’S REPUTATION

This article is going to concentrate on villas to rent in Ibiza Spain. Ibiza tends to be synonymous with youth night life, discos, booze etc. and of course became a major centre of touristic attraction during the 1960s, being then famous for its "Hippie-Culture" and nudist beaches. They still attract the young ones who are unquestionably attracted by the island's rollicking nightlife, which starts in the afternoon at the beaches and in the centre of town, to continue until dawn in the numerous discotheques.

A SUPERB DESTINATION FOR ALL

Today however the real Ibiza is becoming known for a lot more than its reveling past and now attracts families and older visitors looking for villas to rent in Ibiza Spain and even the golfer fraternity book Spanish apartments to rent in Ibiza, where they can visit the two main golf courses of Ibiza Golf Club 18 hole and Club de Golf Roca Llisa, a 9 hole.

IBIZA’S CLIMATE

Geographically Ibiza is the closest to the mainland and is the second most southerly island next to Formentera. Its climate is probably the main reason for booking Spanish apartments to rent. Ibiza almost certainly gets the best weather of the Balearic islands, albeit there is little in it.  However at the time of writing this article (5th of February) it was a very pleasant 19°C, although the average is closer to 12 - 14 °C for this time of the year. It is still a very pleasant temperature for those who want to get away from the cold dreary dank days in the north of Europe! The summer does bring quite high temperatures averaging 26°C and it can be a long summer stretching into early October when villas to rent in Ibiza Spain remain popular bookings.

TRAVEL AND TRANSPORT

For those of you with vehicles and a love of the open road, before you look at the villas and apartments in Spain for rental, you should know that the only way that you can bring your beloved wheels to Ibiza and arrive safely at your holiday home is on one of the ferries from the mainland. The travel times vary from ferry company to ferry company - some companies have the super-fast ferries but I always feel if you are in that much of a hurry you would fly. Other things that can affect your ferry time are where you travel from in Spain and whether you have pre-booked etc. all this will affect your travel time.

FLIGHTS

There are a host of airlines to choose from and are available all year round. The fares vary and are the highest in summer which is hardly surprising, considering that Ibiza has traditionally been considered a summer time destination. However during the winter the flights are still popular and have been first choice for many years with the retirees and Spaniards visiting family, and business-commuting continues throughout the season.

IBIZA CAR HIRE COMPANIES

There is a selection of car hire companies on the island offering cars at prices to suit every pocket and this is possibly the most convenient way to get to your villas to rent in Ibiza Spain.

BUSES

The island can boast an extensive and regular Bus service. There are half-hour connections between all major resorts, including many of the most popular beaches. Buses run in the summer months from approximately 7 am until 10 pm. The disco bus then takes over from midnight until 6 am, taking clubbers to and from all the major clubs and resorts. The buses are air-conditioned and an extremely economical form of transport. Ask the owners of the villas and apartments in Spain for rental before booking for more details.

TAXIS

For families travelling, taxis are a comfortable and relatively economical way to travel. You can flag a taxi down at any time of night and day if the green light is showing.

ACCOMMODATION

Naturally as we are a website specialising in villas to rent in Ibiza Spain direct from the owners (commission free), we would recommend you book a property from one of the owners. Not least because you are able to talk to someone who knows the Island inside out, and who can answer your queries and give you all sorts of tips. But the most important thing is to visit this lovely Island and Holiday-Villa-Select can definitely recommend it!
