Planning first trip to Spain.....
 

I am planning a trip to Spain for my family, 2 adults, 4 teenagers. <BR>Would like to rent a villa for 1 week each in 2 different locations. <BR>Would be visiting in Sept/Oct. Ideally, we would like to swim on the beach and relax. <BR>Any suggestions on a "good" place to base ourselves? <BR>Mallorca, Valencia, Catalunya? I know I am asking a very broad question but any inside knowledge would be great.

Kimerley <BR>Two years ago we vacationed in Spain for about a month. I wrete a "report" for a friend which I have since sent copies to many Fodorites request. If you want a copy, please email me for one. <BR>Spain is a wonderful country to visit. <BR>Regardless, you should certainly contact the Spain Tourism office. They will provide you with much information, map, city guides, and MUCH more. <BR>Their website is <BR>http://www.spainok.org <BR>Richard
