Thinking about a villa holiday rental in Spain for your summer holidays can give you a warm glow which can help you get through the dark days of winter. One such sunny Spanish holiday destination is Menorca (Minorca), one of the Balearic Islands. It is one of the smaller Balearic Islands and is relatively unspoilt and quiet in comparison to Mallorca and Ibiza. It has a wide variety of hotels, villas and apartments to suit most tastes and budgets. You can even book a luxury villa rental or a modest holiday apartment rental direct from the property owners and save on your holiday costs.

Menorca is one of the most popular Mediterranean island destinations for a family holiday. Hot sunny days are almost guaranteed and there is an extensive range of privately owned villas and apartments to choose from for your summer holiday rental in Spain. You can choose from a villa holiday letting in Spain in the hills with a swimming pool and a view of the sea, to a holiday apartment rental near the beach that the kids will love. Menorca is a small island and everything is within easy reach including the picturesque little villages and the many small coves and beaches.

If you are looking for a holiday letting in Spain in a quiet and peaceful location then Menorca may well have the holiday apartment rental or the vacation villa rental you seek. The island is ideal for families and for those looking for a place to unwind in a tranquil setting. The pace of life is far slower than that of the neighbouring island of Mallorca which tends to have a more rowdy, party atmosphere. If you choose your holiday rental in Spain in Menorca you will find that in the evenings most visitors are content to eat out in one of the excellent restaurants or enjoy a drink in one of the many bars.

Menorca has more beaches than the other Balearic Islands, ranging from small secluded havens surrounded by rocks, to long golden-sand beaches with beach bars. On the south coast Cala en Porter is in a lovely cove, surrounded by imposing cliffs and it offers safe bathing and all the tourist amenities you could possibly need. Worth visiting on the west coast is Cala Macarella which is more remote but is accessible by car from Ciutadella. It is a very beautiful beach and popular despite the fact that there are few tourist facilities. If you choose your villa or apartment holiday rental in Spain in Menorca you will be able to enjoy lazy days on the beach followed by leisurely meals and if you want a bit of exercise try some of the picturesque coastal walks.

Staying in an apartment or villa holiday letting in Spain on the island of Menorca means you will have access to plenty of fun activities for all the family. There are watersports available on the beaches but for an exciting day out you can visit the Los Delfines Aquapark which has water tunnels and giant slides and can be found near Ciutadella. For families who enjoy the countryside and want a day away from their apartment or villa holiday rental in Spain we would recommend a visit to the S'Albufera des Grau Nature Reserve in the north of the island along the coast from Cap de Favaritx. It is a beautiful area with a lagoon and wetlands which are home to many species of birds including rock-thrushes, rock doves and peregrines.

If you decide to book your holiday rental in Spain in Menorca you should try to visit Mahon the capital of the island. Mahon is the ideal antidote to an excess of sun and sand with its bustling pedestrianised streets lined by interesting shops - look out for leather goods and pottery as well as designer clothes shops. After you have had enough shopping stop in one of the shady squares and have a break in one of the many pavement cafes. You can get a bus to Mahon from most places on the island and we would recommend that you use public transport to get to the city, as there are few places to park.

Anyone been on Thomson Coral Islands/Caribbean Cruise?

Going on this cruise Feb.11. Confused what innoculations I should get if any. When booking the travel agent said there was really no need to have any. I then checked with my GP/Surgery nurse who informed me they no longer deal with this and should go to a private Travel Clinic who told me I should really know what I required, otherwise I would have to be charged for a consultation. What I have read online varies. If anyone has been can they tell what they did? Thanks.
Thanks smizzle 8. We are boarding and embanking in Dominica Republic please does that manke any difference?

You really shouldn't need any inoculations going to the Caribbean, I have worked in selling cruises for many years and have never heard of anyone having to get inoculations.

Enjoy the Cruise

Melanies Jamaica, the highlands

Following the recent killing of the British honeymoon couple on the Caribbean island of Antigua many are now questioning how safe these idyllic paradise-like islands are for the millions of visitors who choose to holiday there each year. With many newspapers reporting on this horrific event it is no surprise that many subsequent articles have chosen not only to concentrate on the facts surrounding the case, but also to focus on the "perceived problem" of crime permeating not just Antigua but other islands throughout the Caribbean. But is this popular region of the world really as unsafe as recent media reports have indicated?

The simple answer is "no". Of course the Caribbean is not a crime free destination. Like anywhere else in the world all the islands of the Caribbean experience varying degrees of mainly petty crime, such as theft. Whilst some of the larger islands such as Jamaica and Trinidad might also experience more serious and violent crime such as rape or murder, these crimes are nearly always perpetrated by locals against locals and hardly ever visitors, and these crimes are still relatively rare in comparison to many of the countries where tourists to these islands actually come from. This is why the recent murder of the honeymoon couple in Antigua made such major headlines, as it really was a rare and isolated incident. In fact the last tourist homicide on Antigua took place over ten years ago.

Nearly 97,000 tourists from the UK alone visited the island of Antigua in 2007 and most of these visitors will no doubt confirm that during their stay they experienced nothing but a warm climate, beautiful beaches and friendly hospitality from the majority of local people. The island has so much to offer visitors and is one of the Caribbean's most popular tourist islands. For the last two years Antigua has also won awards as best wedding and honeymoon destination because of its appeal to couples looking for an exotic and beautiful destination for their wedding or honeymoon.

It is also a much cheaper holiday destination now due to the strength of the pound against the US dollar in comparison to the Euro. Many hotels and resorts also offer free weddings for couples staying for a specified minimum duration or for couples who wish to book additional rooms for their guests. One of the best destination for Caribbean holiday is The Inn at English Harbour.

Getting married on the island of Antigua could not be easier. Couples are able to get married on the same day they arrive on the island if they wish once they purchase a local licence from the correct Government office. All weddings conducted at local hotels, resorts or other not religious venues such as on one of the island's 365 beautiful beaches, are civil ceremonies conducted by a marriage officer. Couples can also get married in one of the island's many churches. Weddings conducted on Antigua, as well as all the other islands of the Caribbean are legally recognised in the UK.

Couples who had previously considered or even planned to visit the Caribbean and particularly the island of Antigua for an annual holiday or for their wedding or honeymoon should not be put off by recent events. Compared to many destinations in Europe, the Mediterranean and other parts of the world which are popular holiday spots for the Brits, the Caribbean is still a much safer destination. and Jolly Beach Resort is example of hotels which offer this.

Bahamas Beaches - Day 6 - Relaxing Ocean Sounds, Sunset & Waves - Rose Island

Cozumel makes the perfect location for a relaxing, memorable vacation. It has been called the soul of the Caribbean and is home to the second largest coral reef in the world, making it a scuba diver's dream.

Breathtaking, clear blue waters with visibility of more than 200 feet provide the perfect backdrop for more than 100 scuba and snorkeling dive sites. Visit Cozumel for a taste of Mexican culture in one of the world's most beautiful and serene environments.

Traveling to the beautiful island of Cozumel can be fully enjoyed for much less than you might think. Here are a few tips for getting a great deal on your Cozumel vacation:

1. Travel when rates are lowest. Prices will be cheaper in the off-season for everything from airfare to lodging. For Cozumel, the highest prices are between December and March, and in particular the week of Christmas and the week of New Year's Day. Rates during those holiday weeks are sometimes more than twice as much as the low season rates. You'll find the lowest rates from April to mid December, so try to plan your vacation accordingly.

2. Consider an all-inclusive cruise package. Cruise ships stop at Cozumel three times a week giving you the opportunity to combine a cruise vacation with a trip to Cozumel. You can handle all the reservations online, even employing the aid of a travel agent, who can be helpful in pointing you toward the best deals for your money.

3. Check for Cozumel resorts offering a package deal. Resort packages are growing in popularity because tourists like the idea of paying a flat rate for their room, food, drinks, and some deals will include local events or entertainment or even airfare. Some areas, such as nearby Cancun, keep the tourists coming consistently through the off-season by offering all-inclusive packages.

4. Explore on your own, rather than booking tours or excursions. Cozumel is a small island, roughly 30 miles long, 10 miles wide and flat, so it's easy to get around, either on foot, by cab, or by renting a car or scooter. You can rent a scooter for about $25 for the whole day or get a VW convertible, which is perfect for island exploring, for about $45.

5. Get off the beaten path for eating and shopping. Do some homework before you get there. The internet will provide you with reviews from people who have already been there, as well as forums and other venues where you can ask questions and get suggestions for great food at the best prices.

6. Take full advantage of the free attractions. Cozumel is known worldwide for great diving and beautiful beaches. Paradise Beach is about 10 kilometers from San Miguel and offers free use of beach umbrellas and chairs, snorkel equipment and kayaks.

7. Shop around for lodging. Many places in Cozumel run less than $100 per night and with a little searching you can find accommodations for even less as rates tend to vary greatly between hotels. Most of the prices you'll find in Cozumel are quite reasonable compared to U.S. costs.

L4D2:: Zombies of the Caribbean (Disney ride remake)

If you are looking for a place that has pristine beaches, warm waters and a French influence, St. Bart's is the island for you. This tiny island that is only 8 miles long and located in the Caribbean Sea, has beautiful secluded beaches, charming hotels and outstanding French cuisine. St. Bart's is also widely known to be a tropical playground for the rich and wealthy. If you are looking for a place to relax in the tropics, the all inclusive resorts in Bahamas would be fine, but St. Bart's would be spectacular.

St. Bart's is completely surrounded by 20 breathtaking beaches that welcome sunbathers and swimmers with sparkling water and white sand. Many of the waters around the island are warm and calm, lending themselves to windsurfing as its major water sport attraction. Like all of the other islands in the Caribbean Sea, St. Bart's has plenty of areas in the clear waters for scuba diving and snorkeling. Grand Cul de Sac on St. Bart's is home to the most popular beach on the island. Many of the all inclusive beach resorts and restaurants on the island are located in this part of the island. Grand Cul de Sac is protected from large waves by a coral reef, making the waters perfect for the aforementioned water activities.

There are many wonderful places to stay while in St. Bart's. The type of lodging that you choose depends on your budget. If you have a big budget, the hotels and resorts right alongside the beach at Grand Cul de Sac are the most expensive. There are rustic bungalows that are tucked away near other beaches that are a little lower on the price scale. If you are really looking for a steal of a deal, there are many houses and villas that are available for rent. Some resorts offer brightly colored cottages scattered along paths that are edged with tropical flora. If you do decide to stay at a hotel located along a beach, most of the hotels have private beach access. Your all inclusive holiday can have all of the amenities you desire and more.

The best time of the year to visit St. Bart's is from late August to early November. The reason for this is that most people from the United States and Europe tend to travel to the Caribbean while the weather back home is at its worst. The winter and spring months are when the hotel prices are the highest. The hotel prices tend to drop sometime after April, but the crowds really drop off at the end of August.

Where is best to go to in Caribbean in June/July?

My partner and I want to go somewhere in the caribbean this June, only problem being most of the places state that weather in June is terrible, heavy rain/stormy season etc. We want to go somewhere more exotic, and further afield has anyone been to Caribbean in June, and had good weather, if so where?

Or if not does anyone have any suggestions where to go as an alternative? We are not bothered about Europe with the Euro being so expensive etc we just want a good all inclusive holiday with the option for scuba diving / watersports etc
I dont mind heat, just dont want rain, not much help here then!

The hurricane season in the Caribbean is from June 1 - November 30. Just because it is that season that does not mean that you can not come and enjoy yourself. No one can say whether it will rain or not. You might come in the rainy season and it might not rain and you can come in the dry season and it might rain.

You can come to Barbados, it is a lovely place with friendly people.

The economy may be going south, but that doesn't mean you have to give up your yearly family vacation! Instead of spending a week stranded at home, do a little planning and figure out how to take a great family vacation without breaking the bank. By booking advance tickets, choosing vacation rental homes in Orlando or any other Florida destination and traveling in the off season, you'll be able to take a great family vacation, without sacrificing fun.

Book Advance Tickets

A simple Internet search should bring up a list of advance ticket sites, no matter where you're going. Be careful, though, because some of these ticket sites can be fraudulent. For instance, it's a good idea to ask the managers of the many Disney vacation rentals or other vacation rental homes in Orlando for recommendations of sites that can offer discounted Disney admission passes. Because the managers of these vacation rental homes in Orlando deal with park admission and vacationers year round, they'll know which ones are truly a good deal and which ones should be avoided.

It's possible to find advance tickets for many Orlando attractions, such as Universal Studios, Sea World, Disney and others. Just make sure to go with a plan and realize you may not have time to do everything you want. You won't save any money by purchasing tickets you don't have time to use!

Stay In Vacation Rental Homes In Orlando Or Other Florida Travel Destinations

Another great travel tip is to stay in vacation rental homes in Orlando instead of a pricey hotel inside the Disney theme park. These villa rentals in Orlando are often big enough to house an entire family in one home and are ideal for large families or groups. Additionally, because these villa rentals in Orlando are private homes, they are complete with full kitchens, saving you lots of money you'd normally spend eating out in restaurants.

It's possible to find villa rentals in Orlando that also offer private pools, meaning you'll be able to enjoy a day at the pool all the for price of a bottle of sunscreen. Additionally, if you have children, they will love the thrill of staying in Disney vacation rentals.

Travel In The Off Season

Although Orlando is a pleasant and family-friendly year-round destination, several times of the year are especially great to find deals on vacation rental homes in Orlando. Fantastic prices can be found during summer months from June through September. However, there are also other times of the year that are considered low season months, including April just after Easter through early June. Another relatively low season period is mid-August through mid-December. During the off season, tickets are often cheaper and you'll have your choice of many premier villa rentals in Orlando. Additionally, you won't have to fight large crowds often found during the winter months.

These are just a few travel tips that can save you money on your Florida vacation. Whether you're looking to stay in vacation rental homes in Orlando or elsewhere, save big by traveling in the off season and booking your tickets in advance. You'll still be able to have a fun vacation in Disney vacation rentals without spending a lot of cash.

Going on vacation? Great! I'm gonna cover a couple of things to do so you won't ruin your trip and waste your money.

1) Bring medical info on all members traveling- Make copies of important medical information (medications, ailments, doctor contact info, shot record, insurance card, letter from parents allowing you to make medical decisions if your kid's friends are traveling with you, etc.) Create a medical info pack for each person that can be turned over to emergency personnel in case of an accident or other emergency. The amount of info will depend on whether you are travelling in or out of the country, so plan it out ahead of time.

2) WEAR SUNSCREEN! I can't tell you how many people I see down here on vacation in Florida who enjoy their first day in the sun and spend the rest of their vacation in pain looking like they are wearing a lobster costume. Put it on before you head out and reapply frequently throughout the day. You will be able to do more and suffer less!

3) Coordinate your plans! Everyone should know what is going on and what is coming up before it happens. Discuss plans for the next day at dinner, do a quick brief at breakfast on what is going on, review contact info (where to meet and when if splitting up) and make sure your cell phones or two-way radios are charged and on the right frequency. If using radios, have more than one frequency planned in case of heavy or obnoxious radio traffic- use an easy memory jogger that everyone would know (numbers in someone's birthday, etc.). Losing a radio is cheaper than replacing a cell phone.

4) If in a theme park, use the meal deal and share if you have a big group (don't be obvious-- they frown on that big time). At Universal, you pay around $21 and you can eat all day at selected restaurants. Buy or bring the souvenir cup for that park and get refills for around $.79 instead of paying $2.50 or more for each drink. Ask them to go light on the ice and get more drink for your money or use the ice to keep you cool on a hot day at the park.

5) Leave some free time! You don't have to be doing something every single minute- this is a vacation so RELAX! Plan an afternoon by the pool or beach doing nothing but enjoying doing nothing. It costs less and face it, just being away from your normal life laying by a pool you don't have to clean or a beautiful beach can be the best part of your trip.
