To ask on here for holiday recs?

[OnThisHill]

Hi

I'm looking for a week away, starting on
14 June. I have a serious illness, so will need to keep the destination probably mainland Spain for medical facilities. Just in case. And for insurance purposes.

I'm well at the moment so OK to travel but
I am longing for a week by a pool, just to totally chill out and forget my troubles! Has to be somewhere that has something to do in the evenings ... (OH has never done this kind of hol so says he will be bored!) So maybe city ruins/ harbour etc.

I don't fancy a mad resort (I'm 51 and my clubbing days are distantly seen in the rear view mirror). Also, I know this might sound daft, I don't want to be sneaking around the pool at 2am putting my towel on a lounger - does anyone have any knowledge of 'swim up' apartments? Which I heard about on MN.

I am doing my own search but just wondered if you had any great recommendations of hotels/ towns/ resorts etc.

Thank you in advance.

Valencia is lovely and has everything - history, restaurants, beach, cycling, walking. Much much prettier than I thought and so easy to get around. We stayed in the Westin but there were plenty of choices. If I went again I’d probably go nearer to beach and travel into city.

Hi BananaHarvest

Thank you. I will take a look. Sounds good!

Palma in Majorca or Malta

Or sorrento and the amalfi coast and ravello
