Spring is a time of calm, which allows you to enjoy Menorca with peace and quiet, enjoying the authentic Menorcan rhythms.
The pre-summer season is a magnificent time to walk around an island that preserves all the green and all the calm that define it. Minorcan spring is characterized by being a transition season from green to ocher that prevails in summer. An instant in which nature takes center stage. For this reason, we propose some outdoor plans. However, just as it happens in the countryside, Menorca undergoes a cultural awakening during these months, in which the offer to enjoy good live music multiplies. These are the appointments and experiences that we recommend from Faustino Gran.

We give you some ideas to enjoy Menorca and our facilities with your partner.
In our last post, we talked about the possibility of organizing an event in our Country Club, an idyllic place in the middle of a Mediterranean pine forest. But what if the plan becomes more intimate? At Faustino Gran we are to celebrate love every day of the year, and not just on a specific date in February. That is why we give you three ideas to enjoy a romantic moment with your partner during your visit to Menorca.

Ask for information to organize that special event in one of the most magical places in Faustino Gran, surrounded by nature and savoring the pure Mediterranean.
Why we fall in love with the Casa de Pau
On the road that leads to the beaches of Algaiarens, north of Ciudadela, Faustino Gran hides one of the most beautiful places on the island: a peaceful retreat in the middle of a pine forest where you can rest, relax and breathe the Mediterranean essence.
Our Casa de Pau, which you can reach with the excursion service in our 4x4 cars, is made up of a swimming pool and solarium area, a food service area, and an orchard our own, where we grow the seasonal products that arrive on your plates. For this reason, spending a day at the Casa de Pau is spending a day totally away from the city, in absolute harmony with nature and without giving up any of the luxuries that you would have in our palaces. In addition, you have the possibility of reaching the sea, in a short walk of about 20 minutes, and enjoy a swim in one of the least traveled corners of the island. In fact, the old pier of the cove is very close to the Camí de Cavalls, one of the natural routes that you must visit in Menorca.
That is why it is one of the locations that we like to offer to organize events that require a relaxed, joyful atmosphere in direct connection with the earth. From weddings with a rustic and elegant touch, to a meal for a group of friends in which vegetarian dishes made with top quality products, collected directly from the garden located next to the pool, prevail.
The only thing you have to do is dream about that unique event, because we will make it happen. Menorca will set the stage.

2022 promises to be a very special year for our little paradise. We tell you why.
The taste of Menorca, in the world spotlight
At Faustino Gran we have long valued the flavor of the island. That is why we put all the love and taste in the gastronomic part of our project. Either through the dishes of the Can Faustino restaurant, the breakfasts in the garden or the evenings tasting the vegetarian proposals at the Country Club, made with produce from our own garden.
What for us is a fundamental pillar of the Menorcan experience, next year will be a milestone in the island's history. Menorca has been declared European Gastronomic Region 2022, a title that recognizes Menorcan cuisine as a unique asset, with an evident influence on the environment, well-being and health. The foundations of Mediterranean cuisine are mixed with culinary tradition, but also with a new way of preparing, presenting and rediscovering unique flavors, which have been preserved thanks to the inheritance that survives generations.
From Faustino Gran we join this declaration of a European Gastronomic Region, offering balanced dishes, cooked with care and fresh, local products.

The infatuation we feel for Menorca at Can Faustino is not limited to the landscape.
Nor to the people and the customs and traditions, of which our buildings are impregnated. Menorcans know that the most direct way to reach the heart is through the stomach. That is why they have carefully cared for their fields and sea, and all the food that they extract from them. Quality products , which mature in the sun, graze freely, chosen with care and care. And that come directly from trusted farms to our kitchen. For this reason, we want to discover one of the greatest pleasures that we offer at Can Faustino: its gastronomy.

Since 2019, Menorca has been awarded the Starlight destination and reserve distinction
What does this term mean? Basically, that the island has been considered as one of the best places in the world for observing the celestial vault. The low light pollution and the clarity of the environment make the Menorcan night sky the best opportunity to discover the cosmos with the naked eye. Although this distinction, awarded by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) through the Starlight Foundation, is not exclusive in Spain, it is the only one that has been given in the Balearic Islands.

This 2021 the flags of the party will wave to commemorate past years. San Juan festival has been postponed until 2022.
June is a special month in Ciutadella. The colors change as the day lengthens, and the summer heat begins to be noticeable between the “marés” walls. In the city, there is a calm that anticipates what is to come. What for any "ciutadellenc" is the most special date of the year. The feast of San Juan, which is celebrated mainly on 23 and 24, paralyzes any activity that has nothing to do with this ancestral tradition with more than six centuries of history.

The evening breeze caressing your skin as you hold a glass of local wine aboard Heloise. Can you imagine it?
The Can Faustino experience brings together the two elements that characterize Menorca: the land and the sea. While the land is represented by outings to nature, especially in our Country Club, the sea is an incitement to freedom. To the independence of movements accompanied by the gentle rocking of the waves. That is why we put at your disposal a magnificent boat, Heloise, with which you can discover the Menorcan landscape from the water. Turn the perspective 180 degrees and admire the geological formations that define the coast of Menorca.
