Hotels in Cala Galdana

Situated amongst the wild, green scenery of Menorca’s southwest is the holiday hotspot Cala’ n Bosch, a relaxed beach resort. Its horseshoe bay is a beautiful place to spend leisurely, sunny holidays, and at one end of the beach are the much-loved marina, the resort’s dining, and nightlife hub. On your doorstep are some of Menorca’s top family attractions, including its popular waterpark, Aquarock.

If you love nothing more than sand, sea, and sunset-gazing from an outdoor terrace, then you've chosen the right place. Cala’ n Bosch holidays on the western coast of the island, gives you just that. This beautiful beach resort offers a little more variety on the nightlife front than most resorts on the island, too. It’s nothing like the hustle and bustle of the big Ibizan and Majorcan resorts, which is why so many families and couples book holidays in the resort to enjoy a perfect balance of leisure and relaxation.

At night in Peak season, the restaurants, and bars on the marina spring to life, with plenty of fun, family-friendly entertainment. 

Things to do

Take a day trip to the historic town of Ciutadella, the former capital of Menorca. See its beautiful medieval cathedral, wander through the charming old quarter, and visit the covered market at the Placa Libertat. In the evening, have a walk around the picturesque port before enjoying delicious paella or other seafood dishes at one of the waterfront restaurants here.

Beautiful beaches

The main attraction of Cala’n Bosch is the beautiful beaches, with metres of golden sands and turquoise blue seas. They’re perfect for those who simply love relaxing and soaking up the sun; you could spend your whole holiday on them if you really wanted to. Cala’n Bosch’s main beach is really family-friendly, offering everything you could need for a day at the beach. It’s not too big either, so the atmosphere is more calm and relaxing. If you’ve always wanted to take up kayaking, wind surfing or sailing, you can try your hand at some of the water sports on offer at Son Xoriguer beach. To help you get around from beach to beach, be sure to ride the land train; it’s an easy way to get around plus loads of fun for children.

The resort hub

You’ll spend a lot of time around the marina when you holiday in Cala’n Bosch, as everything happens there. It’s where you’ll find lovely restaurants and quiet bars for you to sit and enjoy an afternoon drink, overlooking the boats and watching the world go by. You’ll feel a real buzz around the marina in the evenings though. Take a moon-lit stroll around the waterfront and watch the street artists that regularly perform, or discover unique gifts at the street market; perfect for taking home as gifts. The quiet bars from the day time become vibrant at night time and play host to evening entertainment, so if you love live music and karaoke, this is the place for you.

Turquoise water, gorgeous beaches, and wonderful sea views: just three phrases that perfectly sum up holidays to  Arenal De En Castell, a Mediterranean paradise on the northern coast of Menorca. It's a little more off the beaten track and hidden away than resorts on the island's southern coast. However, the prize you get for trekking a little further afield is an authentic island atmosphere that's much more laid back than you might expect in the big resorts of Majorca or Ibiza.

With plenty of other attractions for you to explore within a half-hour journey of Arenal De En Castell, you can always try something different whenever you get tired of the beach, whether you're interested in visiting historic sights, or going on a long hiking session.
