Nestled on the Costa Brava, not far from the French border, Roses lives up to its sweet name with pristine beaches, turquoise coves, rich history, and a vibrant culinary scene. Originally an ancient Greek colony, Roses preserves traces of its past: Paleochristian necropolises, Roman villa remnants, Visigothic constructions, and an old Lombard monastery.

Nearby Figueres, the birthplace of Salvador Dalí, is home to a museum dedicated to the surrealist artist. Roses nourishes both body and soul, but it also delights the taste buds. Recognized for its gastronomic excellence, the town’s culinary scene shines. El Bulli, Ferran Adrià’s renowned restaurant, put Roses on the map, and it now stands as a gastronomic museum.
Roses offers a feast for all the senses, leaving you with lasting memories of beauty, flavor, and history.
 

Often overshadowed by its Balearic neighbors, Menorca stands out with its own unique charm. With 75 coves and just as many white-sand beaches, it's a sanctuary for nature lovers. The capital, Port Mahón, is home to one of the Mediterranean's most beautiful natural harbors, while the city's palaces, churches, and historic monuments showcase its rich past. The Teatro Principal, Spain's oldest opera house, and the island's traditional gin, still crafted from a centuries-old recipe, add to Menorca's allure. From the panoramic viewpoints around Mahón, you'll feel as though you rule the entire Mediterranean.

Spanish, yet deeply Menorcan, the island has its own language, cuisine, and craftsmanship. Who today doesn't know—or own—a pair of menorquinas sandals?
Menorca is also a starlight reserve, offering a sky like no other. When night falls, the island unveils a dreamscape where you can truly get lost in nature's beauty.
