A short coastal holiday and a three-month visit need different planning. Consider pace, mobility, work commitments, accommodation arrangements and access to everyday services.
Choose the right style of stay

Verify entry and stay conditions
Rules for entry and longer stays depend on nationality and can change. Check official authorities before making commitments, especially for three- to six-month visits.
Budget for the full period
Look beyond the nightly rate. Consider local transport, communications, utilities, insurance and the flexibility of accommodation terms.
Blend rest and discovery
Leave room for cultural experiences and optional excursions while maintaining a comfortable daily routine. The best extended stays are not overloaded with activities.
