Frequently asked questions
Which beach destinations score highest with guests?
In our collection the Indian Ocean leads on raw score, while Croatia, the Algarve and the Greek islands lead on value at comparable ratings.
When is the sea warmest in Europe?
August and early September. The sea lags the air by weeks, which is why September swimming is so consistently praised.
Are the beaches private?
Some are; many are public with reserved hotel sections. Each property page reflects what guests report.
