Lower budgets are best suited to Mallorca, which offers properties of all sizes from €150,000.
Menorca is renowned for a slower pace and relaxed lifestyle. Its main sell is its gorgeous beaches, beautiful architecture and island appeal.

Apartments are available for less, due to the lack of land and outdoor space, while the modern villas exude luxury.
