Summer holidays in Spain

Mallorca is part of the Balearic Islands, which Turespana states are among the most popular destinations of the western Mediterranean.

Costa Blanca is on the mainland, and Turespana states that Alicante is at its heart, on the eastern coast of Spain.

According to catalog data, hotels in Mallorca have from two to five stars, and on Costa Blanca from two to four.

The numbers in the table are from the hotel catalog: kids' club and the adults-only label are counted when it is entered in the catalog, and a property without the label is not counted. A comparison table by resort is on the pages for Mallorca and Costa Blanca.

Palma is the capital of Mallorca, on the coast of the bay of the same name, and has more than 400,000 inhabitants, almost half of the island's population.

According to the catalog, Can Pastilla has 14 properties, Magaluf 12, Playa de Palma 9 and El Arenal 8. Besides them the offer includes Palmanova, Can Picafort, Cala Mayor, Illetas, Cala Ratjada and Puerto de Alcudia.

According to illesbalears.travel, the sandy beach in Magaluf is 1,600 meters long.

The historic center of Benidorm is on a headland between the two main beaches.

The Penon de Ifach rock near Calpe is a limestone mass 332 meters high.

The offer includes 33 properties in Benidorm, 10 in Alicante, 3 each in Finestrat and Calpe, 2 in Albir and 1 in Altea.

For Mallorca you fly on an Air Serbia scheduled flight, direct from Belgrade to Palma de Mallorca, about 2.5 hours. Departures are on Saturdays for 7 nights, on Tuesdays for 10 nights and on Fridays for 11 nights, from June to September.

For Costa Blanca, according to the hotel programs, the direct flight to Alicante lasts about three hours. In both cases a transfer from the airport to the hotel follows.

According to the Serbian MFA, citizens of Serbia with a biometric passport do not need a visa for Spain for a stay of up to 90 days within a period of 180 days.

A biometric travel document must be valid for three months or longer after the planned date of departure from the territory of an EU member state.

According to the Serbian MFA, travel health insurance is required.

According to the Serbian MFA, border authorities may ask about the purpose of the trip, for example for the reservation of the hotel where you will stay and a return plane ticket, as well as for proof of having a minimum sum of money.

The entry rules may change, so check them before the trip on the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Prices are per person and depend on the hotel, the departure, the number of nights and the service. The price table by departure is on the hotel page, and a hotel without a published price is on request: an agent sends an offer for the chosen date, and the inquiry is sent through the contact page.

The trip can be paid at once or in installments; payment methods are on the payment methods page.
