Spring into the sun for a relaxing warm break

Escaping for sun, sea and sand sounds tempting, and with average highs of 20 degrees, 13 hours of daylight – it’s easy to think why we love Spain so much.

Thrown in daily flights available throughout the UK to some of Spain’s most loved spots, and it couldn’t be easier to ‘vamos’ to Spain this spring.

With a selection of picturesque Spanish resorts all within an hour’s drive of Malaga Airport, Macdonald Resorts has something for everyone looking to soak up the sun this spring; from stunning beach fronts to hilltop locations offering unrivalled views as well as access to great nightlife, water sports and an abundance of local attractions.

Marbella, Fuengirola, Torremolinos and Estepona are also nearby, ensuring no shortage of things to do with cobbled streets lined with boutiques, bars and restaurants with everything from fine dining to local tapas.

Regular excursions are also held, enabling guests the chance to explore with destinations including the Moroccan port of Tangiers and The Alhambra palace in Granada.
