It’s not hard to see why Spain is one of Europe – and the world’s – most popular holiday destinations. With some regions enjoying an average of 320 sunny days each year, the country makes for a go-to escape to warmer weather. And a villa holiday in Spain promises enjoyment no matter how you like your getaways.
If you’re after miles of beaches, lively towns, high-quality local tapas bars, harbour-side fish restaurants and delightful countryside locations, then staying in a holiday rental Costa Blanca is a great choice.
Costa Del Sol is ideal for those looking for a more relaxed and easy-going holiday with amazing wine, authentic hillside towns and choice of beaches and bays. Andalucia is a mixture of authentic white towns in the hills and thriving beach resorts so can you enjoy the best of both worlds. The Balearics – Majorca and Menorca – are perennial favourites with families. And they have a huge amount to offer anyone who enjoys the outdoors with boat and beach trips, walking, cycling and birdwatching being just a few of the most popular activities.
The Canary Islands is a firm favourite with holidaymakers, having a year-round sunshine and Villa Plus has villas to rent on 3 beautiful islands – Lanzarote, Fuerteventura and Tenerife to tempt you. Lanzarote is all about the sandy beaches, volcanic scenery of Timanfaya National Park and family-friendly resorts.
Fuerteventura, with its rough waves and serene sands, is ideal for beach lovers and water sports enthusiasts. If you dream of sunny days, a crystalline ocean view, lunar landscapes and fine dining or typical local cuisine, then Tenerife ticks all the boxes. Villa Plus has over 900 holiday rentals across Spain, with villas in Mainland Spain, the Canary Islands and the Balearic Islands, meaning you’ll have plenty of beautiful villas to choose from in central, countryside and beach locations with sea or mountain views – the choice is yours!

You can visit Canary Islands – Lanzarote, Fuerteventura and Tenerife – all year round and they are very popular for winter holidays where you can enjoy mild temperatures around 20 degrees Celsius, much warmer than other parts of Spain. Costa Blanca and Costa del Sol are popular from spring to autumn and attracts millions of holidaymakers every year. In spring, you should expect a pleasant temperature (around 22-26 Celsius) and long days of sunshine and mild evenings (averaging 17 Celsius).
Sun worshippers will love the summer months in Andalucia, the Costa del Sol and Costa Blanca when the mercury can easily hit 40 Celsius in August, while autumn is a popular time for those who wish to go on holiday and escape the cold weather at home. In the Balearics, spring is the time discover and rediscover both Menorca and Majorca and also a welcome break after the wet and cold UK winter to feel the sun on your face again. Think about wearing T-shirts and shorts whilst wandering upon isolated places of beauty whilst in summer you can enjoy warm sea and work on that tan.
