В простом времени Past Simple должны быть упомянуты (или подразумеваться) какой-то промежуток времени, событие либо обстоятельства, оставшиеся в Ясно, что always к таковым не относится, поэтому сказать просто I always wanted to visit Spain- неверно.Но, можно сказать I always wanted to visit Spain, until the recent terrorist attacks, или I always wanted to visit Spain, until the last summer, или I wanted to visit Spain to see the Olympic Games in Barselona.

Для обозначения непрекращавшегося действия или состояния, начавшегося в и поныне продолжающегося (либо только что завершившегося), используется время Present Perfect Continuous. Например, I have been working for this company for 10 years- Я работаю  в этой компании 10 лет (все последние 10 лет, и по настоящее время).

Предложение Я всегда хотела посетить Испанию должно было бы переводиться аналогично, но глагол to want не употребляется с окончанием -ing, поэтому здесь применяется Present Perfect

I have always wanted to visit Spain. Это- разновидность Present Perfect Inclusive, т.е. включающая момент, когда фраза произносится. Есть еще Present Perfect Exclusive, которое выглядит так же, но означает законченное на момент произнесения действие.

Well, let me tell you a few words about my summer holidays. What shall I begin with? Perhaps, I'll tell you about my first visit to the Black Sea resort. Have you ever been to Sochi? It's difficult to imagine, but personally I have never visited Sochi before. I have never been to the Black sea before,either.Can you beleive it? I have visited nearly every country of Europe, but I have never been to our country's resorts. Sochi is fantastic! The climate is mild and the sea is perfect. Would you like to come and join us? I think, you will. If you haven't decided yet where to go, listen to my advice! Visit Sochi! Go to the Black Sea Resort! Visit the Olympic Park! Visit Krasnaya Polyana! Enjoy yourself there! I hope my advice will be of help. I really enjoy my holiday here and I hope that everyone who comes to Sochi will have the same feeling. I'll never forget my stay in Sochi. Do you beleive me?
