Best place to take family on holiday?

Leesparkykent · Jul 2, 2015

As above really. Any suggestions, good hotels, etc.

Went Majorca and Turkey last year, been thinking of Paphos but would like to hear others opinions.
Me the Mrs and 3kids (two girls 9&10 and boy aged 4).

fuerteventura. Barcelo thalsso spa. I've been 4 times can't really fault it. Pretty much guaranteed good weather . Food is excellent and you can only go all inclusive so the drinks flow. Definitely worth a look

Does look nice.

I'm back off there in August. If you consider it ask for block 2. Best views and closest to the pool.

Showed the mrs and she is pricing it now :wink_smile:. Who do you normally book it through?

onions1066 · Jul 2, 2015

Through first choice. Very short transfer from air port as well. About 10 mins

It's got good reviews. Is the food any good if you go all inclusive? When I went to Turkey last year all inclusive, stayed at a 5star but the food was pants so ended up eating out every night even though I had weighed out for all inclusive :cuss:

The food is excellent. Everything is fresh. Different meats every night cooked on the grill to you r liking. You wouldn't be disappointed

With the weather like it is now I can recommend the Yorkshire dales, the Lake district, Pembrokeshire, Cornwall, the Forest of Dean ... and loads of other great places not too far away

Already had a long weekend break to Cornwall this year, been a few times and it's a lovely part of the country.

Southern Turkey was the best we had.

Paphos is good as is everywhere else in Cyprus, plenty of things to do and see, great for the kids as well!

One of the most important parts for me when choosing a holiday.

Haha. Yes it is an expensive holiday but it is great. I wish I was rich, so I could go more often.

I have been looking at buying a shell , I like Ghargur area , just outside Naxxar , most of my other family are in the Mosta area , when my dog goes I think I will go , not until then ...

I much prefer Air Malta , BA or Easy Jet....

Been to Paphos with the Mrs, but no kids, so don't know what's there for them. Great people, but the Russians are the new Germans! Nice and hot, very hot, but does have the occasional sea breeze to cool things down. Recommend all inclusive, but in the more select hotels, don't you know, although local restaurants are good. Memory serves me, Paphos is given quite a large geographical area, so some hotels are a bit out on there own, so cars a must, unless you just want to lie by the pool, drink eat, drink eat.....nice

Good idea, most are old bankrupt unfinished properties, so can be picked up for Euro 50-80k.. some good run down farm houses around, on Gozo.
Only use Airmalta, the price you see is the price you pay...no hidden charges, and great airmiles
