I'm currently on the verge of booking a vacation on Menorca, but at the moment I don't know anybody who would come with me, most people can't get days off, others don't have money or other things already planned.
That's what I'm planning: flying in on May 28th, flying out on June 4th in and out of Hamburg airport, staying at the Son Bou Gardens Apartments and renting a car for getting around the island. Since the apartments have two bedrooms you don't even have to share a room with me.
Activities I planned: at least two days just relaxing at the beach, one day in Ciutadella de Menorca with the historic centre, one day at the north coast (more rocky), maybe a hike up the central "mountain", maybe a day of renting a bike and pedaling around, there are plenty of things to do. It goes without saying that we don't have to do everything together, that's completely to our whim.
So, what's the cost of all this?
- The apartment costs 250 Euros for the week so 125 Euros if one more person is involved or a shade over 80 for three people
- The rental car (Opel Corsa or similar) is just 76 Euros for the week (38 if we are two people, 25 if we are three people)
- The flight of course depends on from where you fly in, my flight is just 158 for two non-stop flights from/to Hamburg
- Since the apartment is fully equipped we can get inexpensive meals or going to restaurants, that's down to our whim and budget
Addendum: there is nothing car-related on Menorca so it's just a normal vacation - the biggest distance you can cover is about 65 km from one end of the island to the other.
