Menorca Holidays All Inclusive: Where to Stay and When to Go

Island · Balearic Islands · Spain

Menorca holidays all inclusive suit an island where the best days are slow ones: a morning on the sand, lunch without a bill, an evening walk along the harbour. Menorca is the quieter, greener Balearic neighbour, with direct flights from the UK into Menorca Airport (MAH), just 4 minutes from Maó. The purpose-built resort areas of Cala'n Bosch and Cala Galdana are where most British families look first. Beyond them lie coves such as Cala Mitjana, the wetlands of S'Albufera des Grau Natural Park and prehistoric sites scattered across the interior. July is the driest month, averaging 30°C. Below, I explain what all inclusive usually covers, which resorts to consider and how to book well.

What all inclusive usually covers

An all-inclusive board basis normally bundles your meals, usually buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner, together with local drinks and snacks between meals. Local drinks generally means house wine, local beer, soft drinks and spirits poured by the hotel; branded spirits, cocktails from a special list and à la carte restaurants are often charged extra. The exact rules vary from hotel to hotel, so read the board description on each deal before you book.

When you compare Menorca all inclusive hotels here, it helps to filter by what matters most to you. Couples often search for all inclusive Menorca adults only, while others filter for 5 star all inclusive Menorca to find the more upmarket properties. The live deals on this page let you set those filters and compare board basis side by side.

Which resort suits you

For larger resort-style stays, Cala'n Bosch is the name most British travellers search for, and it is a purpose-built resort area set up for beach holidays. Cala Galdana is the other resort on the island that draws package travellers, and it is a good base if you want to explore the coves of the south, including Cala Mitjana, which lies a short way from Ferreries. Both are where you will find most Menorca all inclusive resorts listed by the big package companies.

If you prefer to be close to the airport and to town life, Sant Lluís is coastal and only 3 minutes from the terminal, with the Illa de l'Aire Lighthouse and the Binissafullet archaeological site nearby. Mahón (Maó), the capital, is 4 minutes from the airport and better for a city-and-harbour feel than a resort pool. Ciutadella, at the opposite end of the island from Maó, works well as a day out for its old town atmosphere and ferry port.

All-inclusive guests who want to leave the resort can visit the Castle of Santa Àgueda near Ferreries, the Cova des Coloms cave near Es Migjorn Gran, or the talayotic site of Torralba d'en Salort near Alaior.

When to book your stay

The main season runs from June to October. June averages highs of 26°C, July 30°C and August 29°C, with July the driest month of the year at just one rain day. September settles back to 26°C and October to 24°C, which makes late season a comfortable choice for couples and anyone who dislikes intense heat.

From November to May the island is mild rather than hot, with highs of 15°C to 21°C. Many resort hotels scale back outside summer, so for an all-inclusive pool-and-beach holiday the summer and early autumn months are the safer bet. School-holiday weeks in July and August are the busiest and usually the dearest, so families who can travel at the start of June or in the October half-term often get better value.

Booking your package from the UK

A package holiday puts your flight, hotel and airport transfer in one booking, which is how most British travellers buy Menorca all inclusive. Direct flights land at Menorca Airport (MAH), which is unusually close to everything: 3 minutes to Sant Lluís, 4 to Maó, 9 to Alaior and 16 to Mercadal. Cala'n Bosch and Cala Galdana sit further across the island, so check the transfer time shown on each deal if you are travelling with tired children.

You can compare Jet2holidays, TUI, loveholidays and On the Beach deals on this page, which is handy if you are weighing a TUI Menorca all inclusive offer against a Jet2 Menorca all inclusive package for the same week. Families should look at room types and child pricing carefully, as these vary more than the headline board basis. If you want to explore beyond the resort, you can also compare car hire, tours and tickets here.
