family package holiday?

**sjr014** · 20-Feb-10, 20:35

Hey any reccomendations for a family sun package holiday in Oct. Needs to be family friendly suitable for a 3 year old and a 12 year old, not to long a flight and possibly all inclusive and the cheaper the better!

Thanks x

Barrhead travel are very reasonable - check out Arcade Travel too as they can be very competitive. We have travelled with both.

October - we went to Salou with kids (2.5 hour flight) weather was great when we were but cannot be guaranteed. Great theme park, go karts for big kids, clean safe beach and ideal for a day trip to Barcelona.

If you want to guarantee the weather try Playa De Las Americas in Tenerife - Siam Park is recently opened and is excellent. Only draw back is the 4.5 hour flight - but weather is almost always great. Probably a more expensive option in the October holidays.

Have a good one

we just booked ours with onthebeach.com and saved a fortune as you book flights and accomodation seperate and you can search for loads of free kinds places in whatever area you are going to. We got all inclusive for our 11 year old free and only paid for flights. good luck

Spain is generally good in October, but not always reliable.
Cyprus is guaranteed to be toasty warm (we went the year before last and it was HOT).

We always book our own apartment and flights with a budget airline - much cheaper.

The best site is
www.holiday-rentals.co.uk for self catering accommodation. Most apartments are on excellent resorts with pools, etc.

We're going to Spain, flying to Malaga in October - can't wait!
