Default Recommend me a holiday destination

Me and wifey want a week away in the med or somewhere first week in June, can't decide where to go.
Can anyone recommend a destination considering the following,

No chavvy places,
No Brits on the pi55 places,
No places that are a magnet for time share sellers, beach sellers etc,
No foam party, living it large places,
No overly populated with kids places,

Yes to decent hotel with good food,
Scenic would be good, not just a resort with sun,
Easy to get to,

Im being picky because some places are just like butlins with better weather full of low lifes who just wanna be **** faced 24/7.

Nothing wrong with that, but not for me, so I'd rather stay in this country and not pay £5 a pint of cider if the places are no better than over here.

We've ben to menorca loads of times as it's really nice but fancied a change.

Javea, Spain Costa Blanca. Get a place in the old town it'll be right up your street.

beautiful sea & coastline.

Go before they do find out

I was going to say menorca, cala galdana specifically. So peaceful and there is some fantastic secluded beaches if you walk along some of the cliff top paths.

Playa blanca in lanzarote is also, yaiza princess 5 star is nice with a good location.

Kerry and I are looking at Greece, possibly Rhodes, Crete or Kos in the first week of June.

G, we've never stayed in galdana, but visit every time we go, it's lovely albeit a bit quiet at night.
We normally stay in cala n bosch, which has a lovely Marina for food and drinks at night.

We normally rent a villa and car but the prices have gone stupid hence going back to hotels.
I would prefer a villa tbh as hotels can be like cattle markets and noisy, your own villa and pool is so relaxing.
