Bristol Killie Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Looking to take the family away to the sun next summer and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations of places they have stayed with kids. Looking at the likes of Majorca and Menorca, i.e flights up to 3 hours duration due to the pain of flying with young ones. Kids will be 2 and 5 at that point so looking for somewhere with a good pool etc ans some form of entertainment. Doesn't necessarily need to be all inclusive but i think I would prefer that but open to suggestions. Cheers BK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86glebestreet Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Don't know what it's like now, but I went a good few years back to Alcudia pins in Majorca , good pool right on beach and entertainment was fine , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottincarlisle Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Went for a week B&B / self catering in Menorca in July to Cala'n Bosch. Stayed at the Grupotel Aldea. You can get half board also. Kids club during day & disco at night. Two pools. Great place, loads of places to eat at the marina. Two beautiful beaches in walking distance. Aquarock water park about a 15 minute walk. Hired a car for 4 days - 45 euros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezmondo Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I find Turkey a great destination for holidays with the kids where you are spoilt for choice with all inclusive resorts that cater superbly with children. The flight to Turkey is 4.5 hrs but I recently travelled with my 4 - ages 12, 7, 6 and 3 - and it was no bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giblet Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Went for a week B&B / self catering in Menorca in July to Cala'n Bosch. Stayed at the Grupotel Aldea. You can get half board also. Kids club during day & disco at night. Two pools. Great place, loads of places to eat at the marina. Two beautiful beaches in walking distance. Aquarock water park about a 15 minute walk. Hired a car for 4 days - 45 euros. Concur with Menorca. Fantastic place to take the family to. Eating out is reasonable and every restaurant tries to cater for Kids with many having their own softplay etc. We went to Cala N Forcat.

Cheers BK We stayed at the First Choice Holiday Village in Menorca this year and are going back again next year. Best place to go with young kids as they are entertained the whole day and night. Can't recommend it highly enough. Edited September 3, 2015 by Lion Rampant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macqueen Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 We've went to Bulgaria for the last couple of years and loved it. We've stayed in 4 star all inclusive hotels with brilliant amenities - Kids club, kids pools etc. Bulgaria is only 3- 3.5 hours flying time, and it is as cheap as chips. You can get a large beer in Sunny Beach for between 40p and 80p, a nice meal won't set you back more than a fiver. We stayed here last year, but I think it's fully booked for 2016 http://www.thomson.co.uk/destinations/europe/bulgaria/bourgas-region/st-vlas/hotels/clubhotel-riu-helios-paradise.html There are loads of other cracking hotels, including one with a waterpark, I think it's called the Aqua Nevis. Brilliant place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stitch Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 (edited) We went to Morocco Marrakech this year and stayed in the Aqua fun club and my boy had a great time. The animation team were great and kept the kids entertained. Its only a 3 hour flight from Stansted. Cheap if you book early. We stayed for 10 nights all inc 2 adults and1 child for £1680.
