the leading guide for charming small hotels in the Balearic Islands

Little Hotels of the Balearics is an informative guide for the independent traveller to small and charming hotels in the Balearics. You can enjoy personal and individual service in Mallorca, Menorca or Ibiza. Whether you want to just chill out on the beach or walk in the mountains, we are here to help. Book your chosen hotel here, dealing with real people who really know Spain and the islands.

The Balearic Islands lie off the east coast of Spain in the Mediterranean. Due to the wonderful climate, and lovely beaches the islands have been an attraction for holiday makers for decades, most of them heading for the large package holiday resorts leaving many areas completely unspoilt for more discerning travellers. Being the largest island, Mallorca offers the greatest variety, with long sandy beaches, elegant marinas, little rocky calas, pine-covered mountains and a sophisticated capital city. Ibiza has the clubbers in their little enclave leaving the rest of the island a peaceful retreat, little changed since it was "discovered" by hippies in the 60's. Menorca has beaches in abundance, and is the perfect spot for a family holiday.

With the easy availability of low cost flights, many travellers want more flexibility in arranging their holidays. At Little Hotels you can find the perfect small hotel to suit your needs, and much cheaper than a brochured package holiday. Remember brochure prices are per person in pounds; our prices are per room in euros! To see how much you might save, see our price comparison.

When you send an enquiry or booking to Little Hotels, you are not just plugging yourself into an automatic system. You receive the individual attention of the staff at Little Hotels to make sure you have a memorable holiday.

There's lots more than just a list of hotels on the Little Hotels websites though. You'll find travel advice, flights information, guidance on the weather to expect, a list of Spanish festivals and holidays, and lots, lots more.

If you want a convenient way to book car hire, we have arranged a special partnership with BCO to bring you the best prices from reputable hire companies. And if you're driving from home to the airport at the start of your holiday, we recommend BCP for airport parking with security, good service and a competitive price. For even more convenience, stay in an airport hotel the night before you fly. Finally, don't forget your travel insurance. You hope you don't need it, we hope you don't need it, but it's good to know you have it.
