Perhaps best of all, despite Majorca's easy-going welcome to visitors from all over Europe, you can still find the real Spain - drive no more than 10 minutes inland and you can be a million miles from the hubbub on the beach, sitting over tapas with the locals, or shopping in a village market.

They say that you can't please all of the people, all of the time. They're wrong. Either that, or they've never been to Majorca!

Couples, families and mature customers are particularly taken by the peace and quiet of Cala San Vicente this resort. The sandy beach is its main attraction, while a selection of restaurants, caf? bars, shops and a low key nightlife provide further distraction. 60 minutes from airport.
