Little Slice Of Heaven - Hotel Torralbenc

by Daniella Grace in , ,


This weekend, my girlfriend Jackie and I decided to get out of Barcelona and take a spur of the moment trip somewhere.. (Which btw, is much easier said than done once you realize the thousands of options you have here in Europe) But narrowing down the options became much easier once we realized we were looking for a weekend of doing nothing but hiding out in the sun, eating phenomenal food, drinking good wine and well, just being pampered.. So after doing a bit more research we stumbled across Hotel Torralbenc on the island of Menorca and decided to look no further. Best. Decision. Of. Our. Lives... I have never experienced a place so serene and tranquil in my life. The hotel is set on top of a hill, surrounded by acres of farmland and vineyards. You feel like your a million miles away from anything or anyone.. but in actuallity there's 120 white sand beaches in any which way you look. The property reminded me so much of being back in Napa Valley (which is one of my favorite places on earth). Except now I'm on an Island.. Out in the Mediterrainean Sea..  Laying poolside.. Overlooking the sprawling vineyards that roll for miles down to the sea, with a buttler bell by my side. Need I say anymore? I'll let the images take it from here.


Menorca Photo Diary

There's a handful of places that hold a special place in my heart and Menorca is one of them.. the smallest of the Baleric islands and by far the most quiet of them, I find myself going back time and time again.. The islands are known to be major tourist destinations in the summer but for some reason Menorca is far less crowded than the rest.. and I hope it stays that way. It's a place to escape and feel isolated out in the Mediterranean.. where you drive for an hour and only see cows or horses.. no people in sight.. and an island full of diverse terrain and hidden beaches you have to hike too. To me, this place is as close as you get to heaven.
