Cala Blanca

Solmar Villas are pleased to offer a selection of villas in the Ciutadella area, a new destination for 2010!

Ciutadella is the previous capital city of Menorca; it is set to the west of the island. The town is an old Moorish town, shown by its architecture, history and culture. There is a lot of history and land marks to be viewed in the town. The town centre is the main shopping zone for the local resorts, making a great day out!

Ciutadella is around 50km from Mahon (MAH) Airport, and the transfer time is between 45 minutes to an hour.

Cala Blanca

Cala Blanca is a modern, new resort, built in the 1990’s, and improved to conform to the evolution of the travel industry. It is a peaceful, family friendly resort.

There are two small beached in Cala Blanca, both clean and good for families, with crystal clear waters and the activities that are available.

Cala Blanca’s nightlife is mainly the hotel entertainment, there are a few bars that are open until the early hours of the morning, but it is mostly restaurants and hotels that offer the nightlife. This makes the resort good for families of all different ages and requirements.

There are restaurants around the resort offering all types of international cuisine, so you never run out of choices for your dinner.

Fiestas in Menorca are always lavish and extravagant, many processions, music, dancing, food and drink. There are many fiestas throughout the year, which the locals treat as a public holiday, only the bars and restaurants stay open. Many different towns have fiestas at different times throughout the year, on top of the main Menorcan ones.
