young couple (21F, 23M) travel suggestions- mid-march 2025

hey all! my partner and I are deviating from our spring break travel group for the first time this year and are planning on traveling to europe together this March. as almost-college graduates, we are certainly working on a budget, but are looking to spend 6-7 days somewhere warm(ish). we've found pretty cheap flights (thank you skyscanner) to several different destinations, so airfare shouldn't be a huge concern, but I know hotel prices vary drastically across the continent so are trying to keep that in mind.

we're looking for some sun, maybe a beach or two, but are prioritizing places with rich history/culture, walkability, cheap food/booze, good live music, and if possible, not EXTREME spring break crowds. we can handle some noise, we're young, but are looking for as laid-back of an environment as possible for mid march. think college spring break for two mildly anxious, very easily impressed individuals.

we've gone to germany, ireland, and austria in the past (bavaria was our favorite), so would prefer not to repeat. any and all suggestions welcome!
